One man's story about his daily struggle with Parkinson's disease put to music.

lyrics

One Day Your Not

For people who know what it's like just to go
a day without loss or a day feelin low
I hope you don't ever one day find,
what this guy parky can do, a life left behind

One day you'll wake up, you'll feel not so sharp
to get out of the bed and you need a kick start
you feel oh so stiff your muscles go cramp
the Parky's got in to a once young brave heart

Chorus
From a one time world champ to just no one at all
parky he just doesn't care,
which of us he gets in his expressionless stare.

It could make you dizzy or maybe your shaky
life's such a trial what has it made you
to do this to you a one time team player
why was it me life it's not fair
you know they will get this guy Parky for sure I declare

Repeat Chorus

If you want just to play in this fine game of life,
you first have to learn how to deal with the strife
you just kick his effect well out of the park
as hard as you can don't let it get dark
sometimes he's strong, sometimes he wins
but you must be the boss, that he lives within

Repeat Chorus

So now you know the score and the way it's to be,
people think you walk a little clumsily
It's not from the bottle, the wine or the beer,
that makes you seem to be so full of the cheer
the Parky's got in and sometimes he wins.

Chorus


The Parky's got in but don't let him win
The Parky's got in but don't let him win
The Parky's got in but don't let him win
The Parky's got in but don't let him win
The Parky's got in but don't let him win
The Parky's got in but don't let him win
