Theatrical Muse. 202, If Life's a Game, Who's Winning?

Life’s a show or life’s a game,
And if you rock or jive it,
There’s one thing that we all know,
That no-one can survive it.
Dancing through the changing years,
Hearing songs and watching tears,
Swinging on along the path,
They sing why they love or laugh…

Life’s a game or life’s a show
And if it’s short or long,
There will be a tune to it
And there will be a song.
Blues or ballads, Joy or grief,
Harsh revenge or sweet relief.
Burning rage or loyal friend,
Closing curtain, happy end…

Life’s a show or life’s a game,
All we can do is wing it.
Most are losers all the same,
They know it when they sing it.
Every love can lead to loss,
Every plot’s a double-cross,
On the way on dancing feet,
Listening to that living beat.

Life’s a game or life’s a stage,
The players can’t be fools.
Only one will always win.
The one who makes the rules.
