The Chinese Cookies Fortune
Do I really want life the way it was?
Without that invigorating buzz
But would life be a bore
Without hate and crime and war?
We all want peace
And so do I
But what would soap operas be
Without enemies that vie
Dont get me wrong
Im always up for a peaceful song
But shaking them up a bit
Is a light thats always lit
You cant write a whole lot
About sipping lemonade on a cot
But in this hectic world we live in
Who would not want to just give in
And watch the paint dry
While we cry
Cause we remember all the days that went by
And even though people do things they regret
They really shouldnt fret
What would the world be without mistakes
I know, a world full of fakes
We all cant be perfect
I know that for sure
And love, love may be the cure
Even though it can be confusing
You never know when youre winning
Or when your losing
We know everything that happens
Happens for a reason
And that all kinds of weather
Fits each and every season
So being crazy sometimes
Is fine by me
Cause without a hint of chaos
What would this world be?
We have to take the bad with the good
Or it would be a bore
To love a little more
Wouldnt bring it back to the way it was
But something better
Like a brand new sweater
Life is unpredictable
Take it portion by portion
And always read the chinese cookies fortune
