Lyrics

The Secret of Success
By Mark Harrison ASCAP

We've got a one eyed cat who always finds a lap
Or a warm spot in the sun
When the kids drag her round like an old rag doll
She just waits until they're done
Patience is her virtue, she's never in distress
And what goes on in her mind I can't even guess
But if she could talk I'd like to ask her
Can you tell me the secret
Will you tell me the secret
Tell me the secret of success.

There is a three legged dog he lives here on our block
But that never slowed him down
He can still jump as high and run just as fast
As any dog for miles around
He doesn't seem to notice he's got one hind leg less
And I wonder where he finds so much happiness
If he could talk I'd like to ask him
Can you tell me the secret
Will you tell me the secret
Tell me the secret of success.

I wish I could learn to accept things I know I can never change
And be happy with what I've been given day after day
And smile when things are darkest
And do more when I have less
Maybe then I'll know the secret
The secret of success.

There was a man on T.V. who seemed a lot like me
But a fire had burned down his home
He was telling the world he was a lucky man
In a calm and soothing tone
He said losing a house is easy, it's one less thing to possess
He said his family was safe and so he felt truly blessed
If we could talk I'd like to ask him
Can you tell me the secret
Will you tell me the secret
Tell me the secret of success.
