Lucky To Be Alive - Barry Louis Polisar

You can fall out of your window

You can fall out of a tree

Scrape your elbow, stub your toe

Or trip and skin your knee

You might slip in your bath tub

You might step on your rake

Catch your finger in a door

Or get bitten by a snake

So many ways to hurt yourself

So many ways to fall

Off a bike or off a sled

Or running down the hall

You might trip on your shoelace

You might fall from your bed

You might walk right into a door

And bang your little head

Watch out for boiling water

Watch out for for the frozen lake

Watch out for floods and famine

And donât choke on your steak

There are hurricanes and lightning

And bad stuff in the air

You can get stung by a bumbnle bee

Or eaten by a bear

There’s danger everywhere you turn

You must learn to survive

You always have to take a chance and

Feel lucky to be alive

Lucky to be alive
