The World


We live in a world

led by idiots.

We live in a world

where war is peace,

and peace is war.

We live in a world

where money is everything,

and no money is nothing.

We live in a world,

where love is rare,

and violence abundant.

We live in a world,

where people are dying,

and nobody is crying.

We live in a world,

a cold, bitter, shallow world.

The world.

Our world,

It's going to shits,

but it's okay

as long as we have money,

we won't throw any fits.
