The Thinker

I tend to sit and think each day Of the world within our reach. If you would listen to my words Please allow me, now, to teach. You see, they call me the thinker. I’m here for you to learn. You see, they call me the thinker. What lessons do you yearn? I gave thought to some politics That exists in the world today So bad, these politicians Why don’t they just go away? They say that they really know what’s best For those of whom they control. Why can’t they see what’s truly best? The world’s going down the hole! You see, they call me the thinker. I’m here for you to learn. You see, they call me the thinker. What lessons do you yearn? I gave thought to the ecology, The mindless destruction of the world. We have to teach the children, All the boys and all the girls. They have to learn recycling And caring for the earth. They have to give the world a chance For, to have a new rebirth. You see, they call me the thinker. I’m here for you to learn. You see, they call me the thinker. What lessons do you yearn? I gave thought to religion And how man has let it go. They must return, now, to their faith For, in this world to grow. Man must develop all the trust That God bestowed on them. Knock down the walls, stop the wars Reach out and make some friends. You see, they call me the thinker. I’m here for you to learn. You see, they call me the thinker. What lessons do you yearn?
