The O.O. - Opportunity

With doubt and dismay, you 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 won
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
Opportunity's here, you need to grab it
Opportunity's here, so let them have it
Smash down that wall, you need to let them know
Opportunity is here, so let's go
No chance, why the world is just eager
For the things that you ought to create
Your store of true wealth is meager
It's needs are incessant and great
It yearns for more power and beauty
More laughter and love and romance
More loyalty, labour and duty
No chance, why, there's nothing but chance
Opportunity's here, you need to grab it
Opportunity's here, so let them have it
Smash down that wall, you need to let them know
Opportunity is here, so let's go
For the best verse 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
The best work hasn't been done
The best work hasn't been done
The best work hasn't been done
