SOMETHING I AM QUITE CONCERNED ABOUT – Part 3:
They

When I was young, I never worried,
I always thought the world would get by.
Then they got us involved, in a conflict in Asia,
the reason they did, was not for our eyes.
Oh the youth, they rose in rebellion,
taking to the streets, exposing the lies.
Youth had to be stopped, they were exposing too much,
so drugs were introduced, to silence the cries.
Oh didn’t they kill, all our heroes,
the ones who would have really, made some change.
One by one, they silenced these voices,
‘till all the politicians, sounded the same.
A new battle cry, “the environment”,
marches and speeches, to save the earth.
New technology, would be the solution,
oil and gas, no longer first.
Oh that “rocked” a couple “fellers” at the Foundation,
do ya know what I mean?
What if Fusion could be realized.
They said, “Let’s make technology a bad word”.
So the greenhouse effect was devised.
Now a financial crisis, the world over.
I wonder if someone has committed crimes?
The Federal Reserve that prints all our money,
seems to gain a lot of “interest” at these times.
When I was young, I never worried,
I always thought the world would get by…
