Life keeps playing me

Like a band from the 70’s

Sometimes reckless and loose

Other times soft and sweet

With a rhythm all its own

Beaten daily like a bongo drum

When it comes to decibels

It’s having too much fun

With the picking of the lead guitar

Which won’t stop screaming till it’s found its mark

I’m feeling not so much a fan

But more of a fallen star

Guess with what is left I’ll just join the band

Before the band gets the upper hand

Then eventually

I’ll come to understand

Why life keeps on playing me

Like a band from the 70’s

Sometimes reckless and loose

But also soft and sweet
