off to work


If pleasing myself and the world at a time
when the time approaches..hopefully we won't go blind..
The birds outside have enough troubles..wouldn't you say?
When things get rough, all they have to do is fly away..
When the world is finished with it's sick sad self..
And the meek are the mighty with the pen and not the sword..
It's a dream I have..when we don't have to march off to war no more..
And the riches I want, I already have..ice cream sandwiches and tv dinners..
Antennae on the box, radio and cd's..a sleepy cat..and a good wife..
What more do you need?
I suppose cheaper gas prices at the pump..and affordable meat..
Maybe I'm dumb or maybe I'm just too deep..
There might be something you could learn from me and I you..
Unfortunately, I've got to go to work now..
Someone's got to make some money..funny isn't it?
It's really just make-believe and simple sorcery..~~the end
