lyrics

The Greatest Way to Learn

Steppin’ outside I was having myself a good time
I put my toe upon the footpath, thought everything was oh so fine
Putting left foot after right foot, I looked up, that was the biggest mistake
For my feet they don’t have eyes and so they didn’t see the old garden rake!

CH:
Every now and then I have to give myself the same old lesson
And the answer is always the same and so I guess it’s a blessing
If you wish to be wise then every opportunity you should take
And the greatest way to learn is to make a mistake.

I was going shopping and mum said “Please don’t forget,
lots of picnic goodies and a brand new plastic cutlery set”
But I didn’t write a list and that turned out to be the biggest mistake
for I bought the spoon and knife and fork but somehow I forgot my own birthday cake!

CH:

Words to the wise, babies, children, adults
the definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over and over
but expecting different results!

Now I’m getting older and I’m always trying to learn from my mistakes
now my toe goes in the water, then my body goes to plunge in the lake
Everybody’s learning every moment, every minute, every day
And we all can find the…”Oh, NOW I get it!”
That’s why you’ll hear us singing as we say…

CH:

I made a mistake with the old garden rake. I made a mistake
I made a mistake to wake and ache to break the rake
I made a mistake to bake a steak of snake in a cake
I made a mistake
He made a mistake
We all make mistakes!
