 Does winning really matter? I sure would like to know.
Grown-ups tell me we play just for fun.
So how come they always ask — who won?
Don’t they know I’m trying my hardest to please?
It’s no fun to be laughed at and teased.
Does winning mean trying and striving to do my very best?
Or losing mean I fail the challenge and all the rest?
I really play just for fun.
Doesn’t that mean that all of us have won?
