In This Imperfect World
In this imperfect world where man eats man
If you are so humanitarian in word and deed
And you advocate for complete elimination of poverty
Then first make humans living angels
In this imperfect world of freedom of conscience
If you love your Creator so much and seen visions
And you want all humankind to worship one God
Then make genetically modified humans in labs
In this imperfect world of political cynicism and chaos
If you are a party or political fanatic with ideologies
And you want all citizens to be members of your party
Then first make all citizens irrational things
In this imperfect world where virtues and vices exchange seats
If you have burning desires to make the world perfect
And you say human society must be egalitarian and free
Then degenerate flesh and blood from human life
