Good Things Of Life

These guys will fill their days with all kinds of stuff
Not sissy girl things but things that are tough.
Nothing is safe, you have to move it out of the way
No such thing as wasting time these boys have to play.

From the time of the rising sun it's a fast pace they set
They have to hurry and play all the games, get all they can get.
You'd think there was no tomorrow if you watch them for awhile
To see all the wasted energy makes you want to smile.

No Mommy or Daddy is fast enough to catch up with these guys
Not only are they smart but also street wise.
They never own up to anything the other one is always at fault
The rule is you take the blame when ever you get caught.

But all in all I have to say its a joy just to watch them play
Like this is the rest of their life there is no other way.
I used to wish for their energy but now I truly know
If I had it my life would end and to heaven I'd have to go.

Energy is  not wasted on the young like some people say
We all have had our chance but for now its their day.
So step aside and let them go and do all they can
Because the day will come they will have to grow up and be just a man.
