So Tell Me
So tell me little boy?
Do you think life is a perpetual decoy?
Will the future be built out of a kit?
Or do you think it will be based on our own merit?
--------------------------------
So tell me young teen?
Is it bright or grim when you are fourteen?
What will you plant and make it grow?
When you drop your mask after Halloween?
--------------------------------
So tell me young man ?
Will the world drink from the same can?
Or the thirst for ambition
Will outclass the spirit of the nation?
---------------------------------
So tell me old lady
What will you write in your book daily?
A breeze that is fresh and free?
Or an air conditioned typed written diary?
----------------------------------
So tell me mummy what do you see in me?
A human spirit agile & free
Tell me mummy what do they see?
A foreign baby who travelled on the sea?
-----------------------------------
So tell me who do YOU want to be?
A global citizen open and witty who loves his enemy
Park your pity, it is well beyond our range
As I do too feel the winds of change
