Fair times and hard times

 * fair times and hard times *
Fair times and hard times
Doing your time
Living your life
Loving and living and crying so sweet
The laughter so loud sweeps you from your feet
Nothing to hold onto
Nothing to lose
Warm in the arms of the love you choose
So many fine suitors
Such a rich choice
Single or married or recently divorced
These suitors are falling at your feet by choice
Honey for voices
And always so sweet
They bring you their gifts
Like a cat catching birds
Bringing them in to show what their done
Successful and bright with most of their hair
Pampered and clothed with straightened teeth
The best of the flock
From these you can pick
So take your choice and make it the best
There is a use by date
On them and on you I confess
A ticking clock that changes its face
From beautiful to ordinary with a swift shift of hands
So if you are for choosing
Make now your choice
And set in place all of your plans
For their are fair times and hard times
Doing your time
Or living your life
Loving and living and crying so sweet
Take your own life and make it complete.
