The Real World

Weird things are hard to understand
Unless you live in Lalaland
Nothing there is weird, you see
Normality, an uncommon word in
Lalaland and it's never heard

When they sit on a committee
Conducted by Walter Mitty
Bumbling, mumbling, some folk are snoring
Others left as Mitty was boring

There are no laws in this land
Everything has got out of hand
All the things that need attention
Are completely out of contention

It is a land of dreams
Where nothing is as it seems
People who live in Lalaland become unaware
Of what is out there in THE REAL WORLD
