[hometext] => Life's All We Got by Jock Phillips, a new poem song about life songs and other things.
[bodytext] => I wanted to tell you a story but I didn’t know the words I turned it into a song It’s life and only life but it’s all we got And life can be fun like the other day I sat on the couch and got high Sang a song about something It was a song about remorse But we sang it happy and we were high for the chorus Funerals raged and bodies built on the pyre Dust collects in the lungs after a while Take the wool from your eyes and toss it in the fire As things begin to mount they build in a pile Might as well throw something else in there too It was fairly somber and fairly morose A little too dark so we sang it that way Things just aren’t that dramatic and those are just words Life is a series and sometimes it’s not And life is not serious but you can respect it if you want Share when you’re young and trade when you’re not I’d tell you we all end up on a pyre but we don’t I’d sing you a song about it but I wouldn’t like the words I’ll sit on the couch like I did the other day I’ll save you the refrain and throw in something else [comments] => 3 [counter] => 251 [topic] => 21 [informant] => JockPhillips [notes] => Title edited as requested in 'Site Help' - Moderator_16 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 13 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
