exhausted parents have come home
far too tired to teach their young
cartoon films instead
to do the job half done
and the lesson to be learned
good and evil are easy to discern
no need to think or wonder
how on earth we got here
they speak of love and happiness for all
then condemn you should you ever fall
sleeping soundly thanks to all the good they've done
what a hero, an outstanding citizen
well why don't you want to see
the final act of this comedy
perhaps you'll like the next one
because there's always another to watch
once wise words used
to justify such ignorance
twisted and mangled for selfish purpose
and feel good intolerance
they speak of love and happiness for all
then condemn you should you ever fall
sleeping soundly thanks to all the good they've done
what a hero, an outstanding citizen
