Do you wish you were on the other side of the fence?

Where everybody has fun and everything makes sense.

Cars are faster, houses bigger,

beautiful faces, healthier figures.

Sunshine is brighter, days are longer,

work is easier, bank balances stronger.

Families are perfect, holidays galore,

Relationships work, who could want for more?

Hours slow to minutes, there is no rush on time,

ducks don’t have to be in a row, they all get into line.

Until, you climb that golden fence and suddenly you see,

grass is only greener when through tinted glasses you see.
