Life Is A Snowball

Life is just a snowball 
Waiting for a windfall 
Fate's a cool virtuoso 
When lady luck swings to vertigo 

Don't you know that 
Love is a many splintered thing 
When your lover ceases to be entertaining 
So you wise up to the rythm 
And hold his heart fror ransom 
Say bye bye handsome 
It's a cold, cold system 
God bless Broadway 
Applause is the worthiest cause 

Life inside a snowball 
Waiting for a curtain call 
Better not lean on that highball 
When the box office falls 
We're all just clowns for hire 
Walking on that high wire 
Miming all desires 
So sweetly inspired 
By yesterday's fire 

Life is just a snowball 
Who can say you have it all 
Just look through the glass so clearly 
Sounds and whispers calling 
"Love you dearly" 
And all those chequered lives 
And fatal lies 
Disappear so sincerely 
Chalk it up
