Who Belongs Where
Who belongs where,
And who owns what?
The answer depends on how far back you go,
And who you talk to,
To justify your view.
It used to be there were places,
That were still open spaces,
We could drive those who we thought unworthy of occupying places,
Anywhere near our faces.
Now there are people in those places,
In those spaces,
Who object to all those new faces,
Coming into their spaces,
Because we do not like their faces.
But take heart there is a solution for every problem,
And with this one money will not be a problem.
All we need to do is fit those faces into a sports team,
To let off steam,
That gives them and us a reason to celebrate,
With beers by the crate,
Winning combinations that belong together,
And open spaces where all can gather.
