The clock is always ticking Though we seldom hear the chimes Days roll by that turn into years Leaving us only a relic of our times. We look back at all of life’s changes How mankind adapted and grew Discovering the wonder of a Universal dream How everything could be wonderful and new…? But now reality bites home every morning How mankind is once more at war Disgruntled neighbours’ battling for honour This time just a thousand dead or more? Politicians openly lying… Not caring of the consequences ahead Now a country can only but mourn The lives so wastefully spent. Still the clock keeps on ticking Man keeps wasting his time Building a dream that for most is unreachable But still we all wait in line…
Hoping that we’ll get a good share Of all the goodies for sale… A billion dollar yacht to sail round your own island and peasants that will curtsy and bow. Everyday we see new billionaires… A new richest man in the world… Billions of dollars that could never be spent While millions go hungry...fear cold We have always been rushing into disasters So the few could could build their own dreams… And as time ticks by nothing is changing it's the same as always it's been.
