Better Off

by ZenOfferings

Just imagine if There was no government Goodness gracious There'd be a lot to fear, wouldn't it? Evil acting agents incognito and anonymous Despondency'd be common all because of all the seedy peeps Beady-eyed greedy-acting low power-hungry leniency Inefficient industry, unreliable currency Questionable access to guns Leaving you feelin' unsafe in the city Unjust evils everywhere No one with the will to care Probably cuz they can't get food and lack proper nutrition Imagine what's left of school's a mess No community build a fence Overpay or hard to trade Can't get rest Unclean water, can't afford a home You'll drink to both or smoke to dome Jobs would be hard to come by but you could finally grow your own Who not what you knew would matter More than ever No one would save us from nuclear fallout weather No plumbing means the rivers'd fill with feces People'd cut the trees in greed and leave invasive species Death to all large native fauna Replaced with vacant blacktop saunas And half-cooked concepts that a goverment'd be better
