Our Mad Bad World

I stand out to look at the sunshine That's now ain't bright nor pure in light; Dark and black that's how it goes.
Wild dummies survive in dust and ash. Where blooming buds wither in depression, Still run the deadly processions. From very little- the lads and the cuties Teach them in advance, greed and lavish pride; Make them the past of the forth bitter future.
While I know of the value They give to the papers; Why don't they, To their birth-giving wise woods?
So gay we are, With our families But let the co-creatures live in the gloom. Living lives of the little ones; Make a snack for many, Who dump them more than they partake....
Why live in this mad bad world? Let's lift the anchors! And set sail, to a better place!
