Too Many People

There's too many people and not enough room Take a trip to the market any afternoon Highways are jammed with cars six abreast Crowded hospitals people waiting for tests Long lines at the movies or your favourite eatery Suburbs are expanding we're losing our scenery How to survive if populations keep rising Leaders are concerned which is not surprising Don't have any answers only same questions Begging for help have you got some suggestions The ingenuity of man has always come through When threatened we've always known what to do Let hope mankind finds the solution some day Otherwise our civilization will just fade away

I doubt we’ll just fade away, we’re far too dramatic for that! ;),
