THE LIFE OF A SINGER

When a singer starts a writing

It is like a tossing coin
The writer will sing while shining
As he has carried it all on his "loin"

The singer must keep singing

For the destiny guides his might
Too little time for thinking
The writer must only write.

If a singer can read between lines

He will be able to understand
It is not about hunting money
It is all about a "job stand"
