Fibre fast get that info Slow down relax life's not a disco Sit down take a break chill with the cat Stand up move about or you'll get fat CarpeDiem seize the day Oh be careful things might not go your way Chase the rainbow find the prize Dont look at the light it's bad for your eyes Have some fun play the game Don't do that you'll get a bad name Take a chance life's too short Dont do that you'll get caught Wear bright clothes be an enigma You'll be the one to carry the stigma Dance around like nobody's there Do it too much they'll put you in care Eat decent food cut out the fat Make a fuss at a cafe look a twat Read more books grow your head Scare yourself shitless with what you just read Don't leave your bag unattended Give anonymously its recommended Be polite don't be a twat Get walked over like a doormat Give to charity over the phone Cant afford the lights on when you get home Share your lunch with a stranger Sandwich with a physco wheres the danger Life is full of give and take We are made by the mistakes that we make This and that and push and pull Cup half empty Cup half full
