Hey kiddos…have you ever heard someone say “you got a lotta nerve?” Usually they don’t mean that in a good way. It’s usually someone thinking you shouldn’t have said or done what you just said or did.
Like maybe you just told a guy his purple mohawk looks goofy. And he says, “Hey, you got a lotta nerve.” Here’s a hint…if you see someone who has a purple mohawk or someone else who has one yellow shoe and one pink shoe…or someone else who likes to eat prunes…
I know you got a lotta nerve, but don’t tell ’em they look goofy.
You can think it to yourself, but don’t say it out loud. You’ll either make ’em mad or make ’em sad. Either way, it’s best to just keep on walkin’ and whistlin’. That other stuff is just small stuff, and you should never let the small stuff get to you.
Today, I’d like to share another way of saying you’ve got a lot of nerve. See if you can tell the difference. And see if any of it describes you…or if you’d like it to…
You got a lotta nerve sayin’ you’re gonna climb that tree,
And run that race,
Or ride that bike,
And camp out in your own teepee.
You got a lotta nerve sayin’ you’re gonna read that book
And learn that math
Or clean your room
And hang your coat on the coat hook.
You got a lotta nerve sayin’ you wanna be your best
And dress real sharp
Or stay real clean
And be happy and not depressed.
You got a lotta nerve sayin’ you wanna do what’s right,
But keep that nerve
And don’t give up
You’re a winner in God’s good light.
