Life can be as sweet as sugar
It’s like sweet sixteen, love good grades,
Touch down, spotlight, goal, friends, awesome teachers
New car, Driver’s licnese, cell phone, NO homework
Then, Sharp as a knife
It’s like breaking up, bad grades, losing a game,
Losing your car and cell phone, lots of homework,
Someone dyeing, mean teachers, unfair, getting grounded
That’s a slice of life for you bitter sweet
