people are bad, they should be good
once they lived in an enchanted wood
and listened to the voices of witches and elves
but now they just want to be themselves
and so they burnt the forest down
and packed their bags and came to town
and sit in rooms and watch television
and never know what they are missing
but what they are missing who can say?
as i was saying just the other day
if only i was a movie star
and had a rolls royce with a built in bar
and everyone in the world was my friend
and the good times would never end
what would i have to look forward to?
i would still be sad and blue
wouldn’t you?
and yet it’s true
i would get no sympathy
just because i was me
and not people who were not myself
how i wish i could be an elf
or a witch in a forest dark
or a dog being walked in a park
by a human who wants to get back
to cut himself some slack
and just stare at the ceiling
because the world has lost all feeling
i am sorry if i lost my train of thought
sinking in civilization’s rot
my soul has been sold and bought
and all is what it once was not
