    Running!

    Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up;
        it knows that it has to run faster than the fastest lion,
        or die!
    Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up;
        it knows that it has to run faster than the slowest gazelle,
        or starve to death!
    It doesn't matter if you're a lion or a gazelle;
        when the sun rises, you better start running!
