YOUNG TODAY!

Young girl, I was young just like you,
I wore that skirt, some inches shorter,
Went out at night and stayed a little bit longer,
I had fan with Tom, Dick and even Rodgers,
Then came Harry, Alice, Martin, and their forth born Thomas,
Young one I didn’t think about today, now I look way too older.



I  have learnt that tomorrow is only a day away,
Tomorrow things could take a turn,
The employee today, the employer tomorrow,
Today the teacher, tomorrow the student,
Today the slave, tomorrow the master,
Young one I learnt that tomorrow is a reflection of today.



A coin well spent today, could feed you tomorrow,
I remember Harry had some coins; he bought a Chevy and drove off with Candy,
Mike had some coins too; he bought some land, and saved the rest for a rainy,
I heard Harry is in town, his car ran down and rusty ,
Not so with Mike, he sold off his land for a fortune,
Young girls please don’t ride off with the Harries.



Sure tomorrow is not promised; no need to be too cautious,
Today’s guaranteed, yes live like there’s, no tomorrow,
I guess what am trying to say, if you do get to see tomorrow,
You won’t look back and wish, you had it any different today.
Young one yes live for today but don’t forget tomorrow.
