Humorous, Light-hearted, Metered, Rhyming, Lyrical Poetry: study on the concept of failing
Come on and fail with me!
I'm goin' swimmin' in the seven seas
to teach Atlantians their ABC's.
Then I'mma take first place
in ev'ry mermaid race
and I'll write us a song we can teach to the breeze.

Come on and fail with me.
I'm flying high without my wings, baby.
The brokest birds up here still sing for free.
I'm gunna chase the clouds
'til they're all chasin' me.
Worst thing 'could happen is we win, baby.

Come on and fail with me!
I'm fallin' backwardly into a crowd.
They're gunna chant my name aloud, so loud.
They'll make a palanquin
so very large and clean
that everyone who bats an eye is wowed.

Come on and fail with me.
I'm flying high without my wings, baby.
The brokest birds up here still sing for free.
I'm gunna chase the clouds
'til they're all chasin' me.
Worst thing 'could happen is we win, baby.

Come, come, come, come,
come, come, come-
Come on and fail... with me!
Worst thing 'could happen... is we win, baby.

Come, come, come, come,
come, come, come-
Come on and fail... with me!
Worst thing 'could happen... is we win, baby.

When the wine runs stale,
when a hum becomes a wail,
when the truth's a tall tale
and the flood fills up the dale-
come fail... with me.

When the wind becomes a gale,
and you're trippin' on a nail,
from the rippin' of the sail
to the bottom of your pal-
come fail... with me.

A fail with you
is a win for me.
I said, a fail with you
is a win for me.
Oh yes, a fail with you
is a win for me.
