I have been weird ever since I can remember
I wasn’t born on that sunny fruitful day in September
My innocence back then was just a shield for my curiosity
I have changed since but then hasn’t everybody?
Existence was enough when I was a child
Everyone I met brought a new set of smiles
Friends were real and there was fun in the family
Love had pierced the skin of almost everybody
But now, we are on a downward trend
What will happen at the end?
The less we say the less we mend
We are travelling too fast for the next bend
I often wonder if it is me or the people around
Who have lost what I think I have found
My parents don’t laugh and the news is all wrong
We all watch the neighbours but we never talk long
My friends have become identical strangers
Divided and conquered by Celtic and Rangers
I thank myself for my shower of sunshine
Non-judgemental hindsight cured my sense of divine
We have been drugged and doped
Will we loosen the invisible rope?
Don’t start putting the blame on me
Our actions are reacting permanently
The planet is vibrating to an age-old thunder
Atlantis was proud before she went under
Natural forces are breaking our balls
Yet we all look surprised at our part in the fall
How we long for the days of the wine and the roses
But a fighter’s mentality has jointed our noses
Why do we fight and bicker and blame?
Let’s abdicate this Kingdom and love life once again
We have one last chance for survival
Make peace with your Devil for he’s not your rival
Marvel in ecstasy at the whole of creation
Being alive is the most wonderful sensation
Cheers!
