If you spit into the sky it will fall into your eye
Can’t achieve if you don’t try
Sad are all goodbyes
Everyone lies
Not everyday you will have blue skies
Anything put into boiling oil fries
If it lives someday it dies
Everyone sooner or later cries

Every country has spies
To get along one must compromise
To look before you leap is always wise
No matter how much good you do some always despise
To stay fit you must exercise
You must wear your size
It doesn’t have to stink to attract flies
Not everyone you write replies

One day the sun will no longer rise
To attract you have to advertise
The biggest questions starts with whys
To not be seen you must put on a disguise
To all things this applies
Fools cause their own demise

Whether you are right or wrong, just apologize
Not everything must be dramatize
To attain balance everything must equalize
Someone always has to criticize

Stars people idolize
On the poor the rich will capitalize
You will stress when you agonize
Each day brings a new surprise

We all fantasize
Not everyone you can recognize
Some people live to scandalize
Not all men womanize
