Sun revolves around the Earth, Isn’t that a curious phenomenon? There are rules and laws since I’ve taken birth You have to follow, you can’t run. Within my mother’s womb, as a foetus I floated from one wall to another. Now the entwining rules eat us The prodigious list only grows longer. For the brotherhood is neither meringue Nor the notes of a mezzo Where has the love gone, I rue, Locate it, I’ll find the boat to row. There can be no discipline, no love, Until the conscience strikes It would neither come from twitter followers, Nor from facebook likes!
