Life is indeed a puzzle
Connecting pieces by chance
Occasionally pieces are missing
Unfortunate circumstance
You've turned on the radio
They play your favorite song
Raining on your outside party
The weatherman was wrong
You found flea market dishes
Like when you were a kid
Serving the food you ordered
Doesn't look like the menu did
If you break it then you buy it
This time wasn't your fault
The recipe said a cup of sugar
Oh, that was a cup of salt
First date with your crush
Everything has went fine
You've overflowed the toilet
She's standing next in line
You bought a scratch off ticket
And won a hundred bucks
I ordered goose down pillows
They sent me rubber ducks
Found the car of your dreams
And you can afford this ride
That board is way to short
Tape measure has a metric side
Some pieces will never fit
Or you will never find them at all
So learn to laugh at this life
Whether the puzzle is big or small
