Human Zoo

Everybody's dying...
No one is safe...
  So many changes...
And, problems to face...

  In a world gone mad...
What can you do..?
  Except sit back and watch...
Like humans at a zoo...

  The animals are dying...
Soon trees will be extinct...
  The gas prices are rising...
And, war is on the brink...

  The president is a liar...
And, we the people have no say...
  When did things get so messed up..?
It hasn't always been this way...

  We should of stayed in the forests...
We shouldn't of left our caves...
  We shouldn't of raped the Earth like this...
Because now there is nothing left to save...
