Well, friend, I’ll tell you: Life for me has been like a day at Target. It’s had tags in it, And Starbucks, And dollars, And times when they’re out of everything. Stuck. But all the time, I keep looking, Going up and down aisles, Checking every section, And even checking clearance <span style="color: #cc99ff; display: block; font-family: Chalkboard; font-size: 18pt; text-align: center;">Where the bad stuff is. <span style="color: #00ccff; display: block; font-family: Chalkboard; font-size: 18pt; text-align: center;">So friend, don’t stop looking.

Don’t stop shopping now, ‘Cause I’m not, <span style="color: #ff99cc; display: block; font-family: Chalkboard; font-size: 18pt; text-align: center;">I’m still shopping. <span style="color: #cc99ff; display: block; font-family: Chalkboard; font-size: 18pt; text-align: center;">Life for me has been like a day at Target
