You would think

You would think,

that because we are a country

of freedom and oppertunity

we would hold open our arms to people

in need of hope.

 

You would think,

that because you've given him

what he wants and needs

he would treat you with respect and love

 

You would think,

that because you've worked so hard

to get to the top

you'd get a break.

 

You would think,

that we fight for no reason

war is not needed.

Love and peace is at our fingertips.

 

It's not what you think.
