When Life Gives You Lemons

 

When life gives you lemons,

Make lemonade.

Add plenty of sugar

Announce, “It’s homemade!”

 

Open a lemonade stand

When life give you lemons.

Add some strawberries

And just keep on grinnin’.

 

There are plenty of trimmin’s

Like kiwi and berries.

When life gives you lemons,

Open a shop.

 

Things could be much worse—

Like if life gave you persimmons.

Just remember it isn’t a curse

When life gives you lemons.
