Balancing Act

Don’t be too early
Don’t go too late
Don’t sit and do nothing
But don’t test fate

Don’t speak too softly
Don’t speak too loud
Don’t stand out
But don’t blend into the crowd

Don’t let the ball drop
Don’t keep it in the air
Don’t be to harsh
Things have got to be fair

Don’t show emotion
Don’t hide your pain
Don’t let it wax
Don’t let it wane

Don’t grow up too quickly
Don’t grow up to slow
Don’t reach so high
Don’t stoop so low

Don’t get too heavy
Don’t be too thin
Can’t always lose
But you can’t always win.

Don’t hold a grudge
Don’t let go too easy
Don’t be too modest
But don’t you dare be sleezy

Don’t believe fiction
Question every fact
How do we live life
When it’s a balancing act
