Madness on the Moon

 

I dreamt of these people who lived on the moon

Made war with each other and angered too soon

Dropped bombs on each other, their leaders all lied

Paranoia the norm while they plotted and spied

They poisoned their planet to drive bigger cars

It all seemed quite silly, they can’t live on mars!

When someone came homeless they just got ignored

Then they sat in stone temples and said “praise the lord!”

(WTF?)

The pets in their fields they all slaughtered and ate

I pleaded and screamed “it’ll soon be too late!”

I thought mad, those people who lived on the moon

I wanted this nightmare to end very soon

But they didn’t listen, they carried on still

So I just let them be, I suppose that’s free will.

I could not believe all the madness I’d found

Thank the lord! I woke up!

In my bed safe and sound
