Open Your Umbrellas
Open Your Umbrellas
6.5.2020
Open your umbrellas
On your tables
And in your drinks
Don’t dry dock your boats
Because only a boat
In water sinks
That’s not the way to think
The time to die
Is at the end of life
Don’t die before you’re dead
Go out now
And live your life
In a world outside your head
Live your life
Don’t waste your time
Until I’m dead
I’m living mine
The good
The bad
That living brings
Much better than
A life that’s full of nothings
Zombies may be
The living dead
Just as bad to be
The dead living
Why on earth would you wanna be
Like a lifeless zombie wannabe
Live your life
Don’t waste your time
Until I’m dead
I’m living mine
The good
The bad
That living brings
Much better than
A life that’s full of nothings
They’ve gotta word for that
Empty
A box full of nothing
Empty
The optimist may see the glass half-full
But if it’s full of nothing
It’s empty
A pool that’s had its water drained
Is full of nothing
Empty
You get the idea
Even a person
Only half-brained
Knows to spend whatever
Their life remained
Filling it up
With any old thing
But nothing
And for a person half-brained
That’s saying something
So open your umbrellas
On your tables
And in your drinks
Don’t dry dock your boats
Because only a boat
In water sinks
That’s not the way to think
The time to die
Is at the end of life
Don’t die before you’re dead
Go out now
And live your life
In a world outside your head
Live your life
Don’t waste your time
Until I’m dead
I’m living mine
The good
The bad
That living brings
Much better than
A life that’s full of nothings
Much better than
A life that’s full of nothings
