If Only Life Was Like a Parking Meter

Just put in another coin.

If Only Life Was Like a Parking Meter

 

By Elton Camp

 

When time on the parking meter grows shorter,

We can keep it going by putting another quarter

That means with a minimal amount of attention

We can maintain an indefinite time extension

 

But there is nothing simple like this so that we can

Nearly so quickly and easily add to our life span

Age or accidents play their part and it is required

That the red tag will arise and our time has expired
