9  O Look How Fast the Things Can Change


One day you’re so young and strong
You’ve the brain, and you’ve the brawn
But before you know it, things go wrong
You’re old and weak; your youth is gone
O look, how fast the things can change

One day you are mighty and rich
You have the wealth, and you’ve the power
But then you slip and fall in a ditch
From the lofty abode of your ivory tower
O look, how fast the things can change

One day you see a gorgeous lass
You become her man; she becomes your gal
You’re both so happy, but then alas
She meets someone; she’s no more your pal
O look, how fast the things can change
