Opportunity
With doubt and dismay your are smitten
You think there's no chance for you, son?
Why, the best books haven't been written
The best race hasn't been run
The best score hasn't been made yet
The best song hasn't been sung
The best tune hasn't been played yet
Cheer up, for the world is young!
No chance? Why the world is just eager
For things that you ought to create
Its store of true wealth is still meager
Its needs are incessant and great
It yearns for more power and bеauty
More laughter more lovе and romance
More loyalty, labor and duty
No chance - why there's nothing but chance!
For the best verse it hasn't been rhymed yet
The best house hasn't been planned
The highest peak hasn't been climbed yet
The mightiest rivers aren't spanned
Don't worry and fret, faint hearted
The chances have just begun
For the Best jobs haven't been started
And the Best work hasn't been done
With doubt and dismay your are smitten
You think there's no chance for you, son?
Why, the best books haven't been written
The best race hasn't been run
The best score hasn't been made yet
The best song hasn't been sung
The best tune hasn't been played yet
Cheer up, for the world is young!
For the best verse it hasn't been rhymed yet
The best house hasn't been planned
The highest peak hasn't been climbed yet
The mightiest rivers aren't spanned
Don't worry and fret, faint hearted
The chances have just begun
For the Best jobs haven't been started
And the best work hasn't been done
