The sky is up and that`s where it should stay,
The rates go up much to our dismay,
Our age goes up with each passing year,
If only we could slow it – no fear.
Now share prices can go up and down
When they`re down they make us frown,
Petrol prices can wax and wane
Which at times can be quite a pain.
The stock market tends to rise and fall
Leaving you with our back against the wall,
House prices are also on a see-saw,
Everybody always seems to want more.
But one thing that will never let you down
Are tears, they flow one way and that is down,
They`re there when you`re really, truly glad
Or even when you`re heart broken and sad.
You can cry at a loss or a gain
It`s just a different kind of pain,
So tears are ready to be your friend
To comfort you and help you mend.
You can cry a bucket full – no charge,
You can cry a small amount or large,
A single tear can fall and make you frown,
It doesn`t matter, `cause they all fall down.
In times of happiness, in times of sad,
In times of bliss or for just times you`ve had
They can fall down your cheeks and wash your face
Hitting the floor `cause they know that`s their place.
In times of upset they are your safety valve,
Your tortured mind and heart they hope to salve,
There is no lack of funding for these tears,
They will fall forever, no limit on years.
So cherish these wet drops and see them for their worth,
Always on tap, free to everyone even in mirth,
They`re one thing you can rely on to come down and stay,
They`re always there for you no matter what you do or say.
