How sweet life was just years ago
Before we each began to grow
Into the adults we now are
Although a few have gone too far.
Where did our faith and fairness go
And when will truth and justice show,
The coddled mass lacks common sense
How can they share in our defense ?
With hands outstretched await their turn
And ne’er a thought their bread to earn
So foolish they all seem to be
To sacrifice their dignity !
