Laugh At It

Look what the god of the money 
has done. It has taken from us the 
spirit of love and the spirit of fun. 

Look around the world, and what do you see? 
People filled with hate, sadness, and misery. 
How long will this be allowed to go on? When 
will the truth see the lies that make right 
wrong? 

A god that has no life, no heart, no soul--a god 
that offers nothing but a pile of gold. 
What kind of god is this, to obey? One 
that does nothing or has nothing to say. 

One that controls the human race, one 
that's on everybody's mind and on every tongue 
with a face. If I were an alien who came here and 
saw this, the only thing I could do is laugh at it.
