Do I leave, Do I stay Do I play or run away Which way today Go left, go right Do I stay, do I fight Who’s my brother, who’s my mother Who’s my wife, and who’s my lover It’s me, or them, It’s now, or then Maybe my community, Or a dangerous lion’s den Do I tango, Do I talk Do I break Or make a wall Do I fly Or do I fall
Left right Left right Wrong Right Wrong Right Far right Outta sight Loose Tight Loose Tight Left right Left right
Well now I’ve come to the crux of it I’m going to be a Bodhisattva Brit All this self, cherishing spin Explains the state we’re in Our imperialistic past Built the wealth of our state Now we’d better give some back Before it’s way too late

I rewrote this poem, changed the title, added the last verse. I think I may leave it alone now, but one never knows :)
