Please Stop This World And Let Me Off
Please stop this world and let me off.
I do not wish to play
To listen to the constant drone
Of who hurt who today.
I have no time for petty feuds
About who gets to marry who.
Who gets the perfect color skin.
Who gets to lose.
Who gets to win.
Who gets to eat.
Who gets no pie.
Who gets to live.
Who gets to die.
I want to live within a world
That isn't filled with hate.
Where folks embrace their differences.
Respect what God has made.
So if I cannot find it here,
Please let me find it there.
Just stop this world and let me off.
Charon, I have my fare.
