Is There Really a Human Race

Lyrics
Is there really a human race? Wirtten by Jamie Lee Curtis And illustrated by Laura Cornell Is there really a human race? Is it going on now all over the place? When did it start? Who said, "Ready, Set, Go"? Did it start on my birthday? I really must know Do I warm up and stretch? Do I practice and train? Do I get my own coach? Do I get my own lane? Do I race in the snow? Do I race in a twister? Am I racing my friends? Am I racing my sister? If the race is a relay, is Dad on my team And his dad and his dad? You know what I mean Is the race like a loop or an obstacle course? Am I a jockey, or am I a horse? Is there pushing and shoving to get to the lead? If the race is unfair, will I succeed? Do some of us win? Do some of us lose? Is winning or losing something I choose? Why am I racing? What am I winning? Does all of my racing keep the world spinning? If I get off track when I take the wrong turn, Do I make my way back from mistakes? Do I learn? Is it a sprint? A dash to the end? Am I aware of the time that I spend? And why do I do it, this zillion yard dash? If we don't help each other we're all going to crash And then the mommy speaks Sometimes it's better not to go fast There are beautiful sights to be seen when you're last Shouldn't it be that you just try your best? And that's more important than beating the rest? Shouldn't it be looking back at the end That you judge your own race by the help that you lend? So, take what's inside you and make big, bold choices And for those who can't speak for themselves, use bold voices And make friends and love well Bring art to this place And make the world better For the whole human race Ya man
