what about the children
must they
do it all again
live their lives in fancy dreams
just to find
that in the end
what they thought was real
what they thought was right
was just a lot of imitation
of people they thought bright
is there not another way
some essentials they might grasp
get ready for a real world
a new age
that's coming fast !
type and weather stars and health
blood and diet sunshine - wealth
art and children peace or war
race and sex wife or whore
giver - taker lover - thief
pilot baker joy or grief
older - younger ugly - fine
sweet or toxic yours or mine
let the mind discriminate
judging cause and its effect
if you haven't yet gone crazy
sure as hell it's what comes next
city, country stoned or straight
filled with love or racked with hate
horses - cars kites or planes
forest paths or seedy lanes
suits or toga hair short or long
make some money sing a song
save your family tribe or race
love your neighbor win a race
love your children parents too
in your spare time have a screw
be christian or a moslem
hindu or a jew
don't you see it's all your choice
it seems they all want you
want you to join the party
want you to join the cause
want you to save the fuck'n world
don't want you to pause
pause to see the foolishness
in their packaging devise
pause to see that what is bad
only yesterday was nice
let the mind discriminate
judging cause and its effect
if you haven't yet gone crazy
sure as hell it's what comes next
