Give me all four,
it might even the score.
I'll take a royal flush,
if it will make the devil hush.
Holding the best hand,
down goes lifes demand.

Like a game of cards,
at time life breaks hearts.
My hands have been small,
so I have to stand tall,
Make up for the deficit,
to operate more efficient.

Life goes on regardless,
can't let a small hand make me heartless.
Small hands slow us down,
then next comes the ground.
I'm operating on fumes,
waiting for a large hand that consumes.

G
