Lets Change
Should we wish for time to stand still
Or forever remain in the mirth of yesterday
Always glued to backward thoughts
And never forth embracing modernity
When shall we ever welcome change?
Always battering our lovely wives
With neither sorrow and compassion lost
All in the name of culture gone.
Makes me wonder when love was lost
For time again I plead with you
At least consider the world anew
Do we need to endure the pain?
Removing all the lower teeth
To be seen as thus mature
Though I say just as one
May we forget the cultures low
And forge ahead in newer schemes
That we may together form
A world united in thoughts and deeds
Try as much to play a part
In the present world and more to come
