"NOT-FOR-PROFIT LIFE"
|
||||
Voices of children enjoying the sunshine Laughing & playing with freinds Livin' out days as if each was a lifetime & Losing themselves in pretend No plan for riches No thirst for fame Young Lives so simple Less greed, less pain They're livin' not-for-profit lives No sleepless nights, no worries or fears They live it one day at a time Livin'...not-for-profit...lives Then come the years of bigger & better The quest for success at all costs Convincing themselves they've gotta keep pace with The neighbors, the times & their boss Squandering life for the sake of achievement More money, more stuff, but no time Chasin' the dream, the one they bought into The one with no reason or ryhme No thanks, you keep it! That's not for me! Things I hold dearest Mostly come free I'll take a not-for-profit life! No sleepless nights, no worries or fears I'll live it one day at a time Livin'...a not-for-profit...life |
