The Human’s Manifesto

Humans run around a wheel

With the promise of prosperity

They work tirelessly, day and night

Trying to get rid of this disparity

How foolish of them to think

That this world is run by meritocracy

How foolish of them to think

That this world isn’t run by plutocracy

They watch the elite lavishly hold their festival

Pretending their existence is ethical

“Money doesn’t buy you happiness”

Well, I dare say they are nothing but hypocritical!

I wait for the day this wheel is turned over

The day that humans turn over a new clover

All I suggest you do is take cover!

For nothing is scarier than a man

That is tired of being pushed over
