Ahh, Let's see.
"The complications are found in the simplicity
that lay before."
Parent, child, cousin, friend.
King, lord, serf, peasant.
Government is big business.
Maybe it's parents teaching children,
Teachers showing students,
Government bleeding society's lost.
Maybe it's youth learning, showing, breeding society cost.
******
You see I pass you as I walk thru the mall.
I hear you pull up beside me at the red light,
With your windows down, Talking on your cell phone.
I see at your strip shows, coffee shops, video store,
Arcades and department galleries.
Huffin' over something new,
Carring envy and don't know why.
******
"I see the way you look at people. I've heard
How you talk about them.
As if they were less and unneeded."
I've witnessed this from your titty bar,
And followed you to church.
******
It seems as if insecurity has swept across all this nation
No wonder why we blame them
For all we taught.
******
"no, no, no! this won't do.
we must find a better approach."
