Life in The Movies

Lauren was walking to school one day,
Wishing for someone to talk with and play,
Then a little boy walked through,
Brown hair and a shirt thats blue.

Lauren's heart thumped and thumped,
She was so happy she almost jumped,
She'd been dreaming of Michael, this guy,
But he walked right past, she wondered why.

She went after him, slowly and carefully,
Trying not to let him know, quickly and quietly.
She pretended to bump into him, thats right,
And the next thing they knew they were staring into each other's eyes.

Then they get married and make millions of bucks,
And have two kids named Carrie and Chuck.
Life is set for them, its true.
Its a movie story, and its cool too.

But life is not that simple, that way,
We have to study and get good grades,
And get into colleges, Ivy League would be nice,
Life doesn't add its own tasty spice.

We have to go to job interviews,
Your boss could be anyone, Marie, Susie or Lue.
You have to get every answer right,
Tention builds up at the back of your mind.

THEN you choose the guy, thats fine and dandy,
But you can't just bump into him, life's not like candy.
You gotta have the guts to go up to him, see if he agrees,
And be prepared if he really disagrees.

See Lauren and Michael, the two from before,
They grew up so fast, they became so mature,
Well, life's not so fast, and believe me, its long.
But you have to deal with it and be really strong.
