I Will Start Improving From Tomorrow...

I remember when I was a kid

Used to do things that all kids did

Used to play about and have a merry time

My adventures as a kid had no ways or rhyme


When my Mom used to catch me when I was on prowl

I used to pretend as if I hadn't done anything fowl

But when my lie was laid open and when I had no escape

I assured my mom that I will never behave like an ape


I used to promise to her with a face of sorrow

That I will start afresh to be good from tomorrow

Time went on and I grew up to be a teenager

Started doing things that got a bit crazier





But when my Mom caught me to my great sorrow

I used to tell her that I will improve from tomorrow

Growing up wasn't all that tough the way they say

My life was filled with all that one could ever pray

For whenever I was on the wrong my escape was narrow

For I always said I will improve from tomorrow

Time waits for no one and I say this with sorrow

I have grown old and I don't know if I'm there tomorrow


Now I have no friends or family for I betrayed them all

Never cared for anyone and took them for granted all

Now there is no one to tell me that I am right or wrong

And I can't even sing that excuse like a song
