Best Effort

Dave Oakes


Looking through a mirrored glass
Wondering what is and what will be
Never let the incompetence of others
Destroy your day or your life
Life is much too short my friend
To let others create such strife
Go through life doing your best
And thatčs all anyone can ask
Whether you do it wrong or right
Youčll know if youčre up to the task
Everyone makes mistakes in life
The trick is to use them to learn
So the next time the situation arises
You will know which way to turn
No person goes through life perfect
We all have the good days and bad
But things always work out for the best
If you honestly gave all you had
So if you give everything that youčve got
And to everything give your best
Even if you lose you win
And their due will come to the rest
