Life is like a vending machine
sometimes you get what you have seen
Life is like a pinball machine
letting you hit a wall
or down the gutter you fall
other times it eats up your money
leaving you standing there left with nothing
life is like a gumball machine
filled with so many choices and too many voices
life is like a karaoke machine
putting you clear on the spot
this chance is all you've got
