That's the ticket



You got that right; you got the meaning!
That's the stuff, it's the truth I am speaking.
You want to know how the cow eats the cabbage.
Understand then, how to earn the right to passage.

Life on earth, it's play and sport.
A second womb to the next life’s resort.
Faith in this world is like your mother’s health.
A successful term brings about living well.

Failure to see what's ahead for thee,
Is a meaningless state so many to be.
Look ahead and plan for the party.
Get your ticket, it's time to get started.
