Inquiring Minds Should Read A Book

SO TIRED OF LOOKING AT THE FRONT PAGE,
WATCHING ACTORS ON THE NEWS.
AND I CAN’T STAND THIS ANYMORE, THIS CULTURE BECOME DEFORMED.
JUST LIKE A CHILD WITH A TOOTHACHE
WE TAKE OUR CANDY WITH A GRIN
BEFORE WE NOTICE THE DECAY
WE’RE DOUBLED OVER FROM THE PAIN,
AND SOME OF US STILL WANT MORE.
AND A MOMENT TO REFLECT. NOW WATCH THE VULTURES HUNGRY EYES
FEED ON OUR LIVE,
TIL NOTHING ELSE REMAINS.
JUST A SHELL OF WHAT WE HAD
ANOTHER CRUEL INDIFFERENT FAD
AND NO ONE ELSE TO BLAME

TIMES TICKING ON THE WORTH OF A STRANGER
YEAH, I’M, WAITING ON THE NEXT ON TOO.
ENTERTAINED BY OTHERS MISERY
DO WE CARE? I DOUBT IT
CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT IT
WE LAUGH AS OTHERS LOSE
