Life

Life 
Life’s  a funny game 
And I don’t know how to play it 
I do what I do 
And just  say what  I say 

the worlds  full of people 
With more than one face
And when the light  shines 
They smile  with such grace

Politicians on TV 
Who just keep on lying
While all around us 
Hope keeps on dying

And if you don’t vote 
You cannot complain
But  even if you do 
The problems  still remain

So what is the answer
Some people might ask
I wish I could tell you 
But I’m not up to the task
