You Can’t Spend Your
Life
You can’t spend your life
Living in a tree house,
Eating hazelnuts and berries,
Contemplating sunrises
And sunsets
Thinking love and peace.
Why not?
Take my advice,
Life is not that way.
You’ll have to shoot
The squirrels and birds
Before they get your
Nuts and berries,
Get aggressive, go out
And get what you want.
But I have what I want.
There’s enough to go
Around if everyone shares.
You’re crazy,
Take my advice,
Life is not that way,
It’s every man for himself,
This is free enterprise
Democracy.
