"What is the World Coming to?"

Folder: 
2009

You have blood on a sweaty gym floor

No sex, so he wasted them

You have blood in a big classroom

No friends, so he blew them all away

You have death in a steaming bathtub

No love, so she scolded her children

You have a black man, in a white man's home

No faith, so the public blamed it all on him

You have an innocent family in a ghetto neighborhood

No justice, so the passing car stole her son

You have socializing on internet networks,

No concern, so she will forget the energy they once had

You have Bill, who praises conservatism

No morals, so daddy's litter girl became a whore

You have cell phones with many features

No communication, so we always feel alone

You have a nation with advanced technology

No compassion, so we let those victims drown

You have fossil fuel that capitalism exploits

No justification, so we pray for soldiers who are puppets for our greed

You have Michael Jackson

No more laughs, for he is gone

You have psychiatrists who diagnose your level of madness

No results, so those pills only make you crazier

You have doctors who vow to save your life

No real promises, so your doctors are your drug dealers

You have kids, who are born with AIDS

No insurance, so those kids lives will fail to stay

You have everyone keeping their love far away

No love for you or me, so what is the world coming to today?
