The Best Of Everything

The Best Of Everything

They say that parachuting is better than sex,
when I was coming down, I wondered what came next,
Linneker said scoring a goal was even greater,
although I suppose that we could do both together.

We don't need Earthly pursuits, spiritual is good,
is it enough? We'll pretend as most people would;
gin gives me adrenalin, whiskey makes you frisky,
maybe we can all get by or is that just a lie?

The sun warmed your back, there's nothing I lack,
it was a duck if you heard the damn thing quack,
walks and talks, most of these things are for real,
you can deny me three times, now how do you feel?

Coming down now, my excitement is paramount,
all these things I've missed before, I just can't count.
