Life Is a Beach
I can't even stand on my own two feet
I think I'll just crawl; life is a challenge
Those things are too high I want to reach
I don't know how to accomplish this feat
Hey, look, I'm standing on my own two feet
I knew I could do it, yes, life is a beach
You keep moving things out of my reach
I don't understand, life is a challenge
Thanks for the toys, now I can play
This is so much fun, life is the beach
I have tried and fallen down so many times
I should give up, everything out of reach
I can make it across the room now
I am so proud of myself, life is a beach
Kindergarten all the way to high school
This isn't that easy, life is a challenge
Oh, college life, I'm on my own now
I like this atmosphere, life is a beach
Get a job, get married, have a family, why?
Life is a beach, then you die.
