This footpath and cycleway leads from the Bedford Cinema to the town centre. The mural has always been a dark and dreary place until this pleasant artwork was added. There are lyrics written on one wall and pictures of teenagers on both sides. The words are as follows by the youth of today!:
'LIFE'S A GAME
As I stroll with my goal waiting for dreams to unfold.
It's the mind I need to energise as I keep my eyes on the prize.
Never settle for second best, no compromise!
This world is mine for the taking.
I've got to move forward even when foundations are breaking.
These teenage years are full of doubt-ridden fears
So stand up tall, shout loud so everyone hears
You can make it but no use trying to fake it
Just be yourself and you'll have everything to gain
Seek to improve your health and play the game.
Want to be the cream of the crop?
Want to go to the tip of the top?
Be a man and make a plan
Stop stopping and starting beacause YOU CAN STAND!'
