Life is a Big Game


Life is a big game That has a certain set of rules Some of them might be lame Some of them might have holes If you would like to win that game You have to set yourself completely loose Just don't make yourself a pray By not following the rules I'll pay for it someday It will stab me in the back Until I get the point And save my back from a big crack It's a big maze Once I get in I'm in that game I'm only going to be amazed The rules, they never change, they always stay the same! Then everything will go so glazed I won't even know my name For now I got seized So what I have to do is free myself That game has a right to seize To get me back I'll have to aim So I can get the dice out of its claws If I succeed, it will burn and disappear It's like the lotto If I get lucky I will win There is only one winner, so good luck I never know where it might lead It's very unexpected and mysterious You always have to wait for the results It's like a candy box Once I put my hand in I cannot withdraw it Then I would take the candy out If the candy is good, my life will begin It it's not, it will stab me with a knife The definition of whole thing is "Life".
