So what's it to us eh?
We have everything,
want something,
and need nothing.
The blind look up to us,
the poor beg us,
and we sell our souls to the devil.
We entertain the bored,
we liven up the dull,
we laugh at the ugly,
and gawk at the beautiful.
We cry for the sick,
but forget about the dead.
We strive for forgiveness,
but lunge for revenge.
When we try to be geniuses,
we look like idiots.
When we try to be idiots,
we look like geniuses.
We buy clothes one size too small
to make us look thinner.
Then complain when it doesn't fit.
We spend all our money on rings and sweets,
complain about debts,
then buy a $100,000 sports car.
We step down to the weak,
and stand up to the strong.
We know right,
but do wrong.
We kiss the bleak,
but cast-off the bright.
Doesn't the human race explain itself so well.....
