Shelf Life
A celebration of life and the choices we have
Get out there! Be true to yourself,
Never settle for the bottom shelf, You're a fine wine, a wealthy whisky.
Play life safe, make it risky.
Change the world
Muck about,
Take the path of the many, Choose a different route.
Test your limits, Eventually find them.
Breakdown, Rebuild
Make money, make memories, manifest magnificence, Or Meagerly meander amongst the mediocre
When walking the wire of life, Conduct, shock and electrify!
Do things you might regret!
Like getting a tattoo of your best friend's pet Parrot named carrot,
go sober, get maggot.
Be that cow that broke out the paddock! Who searched the world for pastures greener.
Be that letter in the bottle that drifted on the tides! The best kept secret that never saw light.
Be that change you want to see!
Build your own life's philosophy, Embrace the pace of your life's prosody.
For when the kingdom of God is found within, we create our own definition of sin
And the best way to change the world is to be yourself.
So get out there. Be that fine wine, that wealthy whisky. But don't waste life sitting on some shelf
