Sometimes – Daniel J. Arthur’s Journal

Sometimes you have to live the good life
You do what your loved ones would like
Say goodbye to all the world’s strife
To it all enjoy one another and say psych

Go to school and work as usual
Help your family do their thing
Don’t worry too much about the rule
Because you are going to sing

Getting through the day in peace
Finally getting to bed for the night
You don’t worry about petty fees
Tuck everyone in and shut out the light

Then say some prayers or have happy thoughts
You will wake up from an interesting dream
There no need to fret about the robots
You make the most of having a wonderful team

People might look at you sideways
We don’t know what’s wrong with them
We go about doing good anyways
Maybe the song you sing is a hymn

Life can be very complicated
Just do what seems right
Don’t worry about being baited
Maybe the others will see your light

No sense worrying about doubters
There will be those wherever you go
They might spread thoughts through routers
Those bad minds soon will not anyone know

You just need to double down
On loving good things and people
Let the others wear their frown
Put loving one another on your easel

Sometimes you have to live the good life
You do what your loved ones would like
Say goodbye to all the world’s strife
To it all enjoy one another and say psych

Go to school and work as usual
Help your family do their thing
Don’t worry too much about the rule
Because you are going to sing

Singing songs from your heart
Singing songs all day long
It’s not just a thoughtless lark
It keeps you from doing wrong

When you love them with a song
The good people will respond with smile
Most everyone will get along
They are less likely to demand a trial

We can only encourage others to care
Maybe our good works will drive
Them to see how good it is to share
And help others to enjoy being alive

Sometimes you have to live the good life
You do what your loved ones would like
Say goodbye to all the world’s strife
Sing with all your might in the mic

Sometimes you have to live the good life
You do what your loved ones would like
Love one another despite the strife
Sing with all your might in the mic

Love love
It’s true
