Why is the good earth
so confusing,
always losing,
always gone?

Why is the good earth
so despairing,
no repairing
going on?

There can not be a time
when we shouldn’t worry
about all that’s going on around us.

There can not be a time
when we shouldn’t worry
about the hatred that most definitely surrounds us.

Why do our leaders
look for glory,
never worry,
never care?

Why do our leaders
add more fire
to the flame that’s
already there?

We shouldn’t let them lead
if they can’t see what’s happening,
if they can’t get a hold of their minds.

We shouldn’t let them lead
if they can’t see what’s happening.
If we do, then it’s our fault, we’re wasting time.

Why are the good things
always covered,
undiscovered
day by day?

Why are the good things
always hidden,
gotten rid of,
thrown away?

People fill our world
with insane waste and hatred
as part of some religious conviction.

When they fill our world
with insane waste and hatred,
then it’s time for us to hand them their eviction.
