Echoes of the Finale

[Intro] [Verse 1] I got a call, gotta cancel plans, School rang up, things got out of hand. The eldest one, after dinner's feast, Started throwing up, a sudden beast. [Chorus] Oh, I was ready for a coffee break, But life had other plans to make. In my car, I felt that twist, Prepared with a bag, but still, it's sick. [Verse 2] Parents away, at a congress meet, In Amsterdam, they're on their feet. So I was called, for an early shift, To care and aid, to give a lift. [Chorus] Oh, I was ready for a coffee break, But life had other plans to make. In my car, I felt that twist, Prepared with a bag, but still, it's sick. [Bridge] I can handle a lot, but this was tough, The sight, the smell, it was enough. To make me wince, to make me sway, A test of will, in every way. [Outro] But we get through, we always do, Life throws curves, we push on through. So here's to strength, and getting by, With a little laugh, and a heavy sigh. [outro]
