Mind Games
I turned on the TV and took in the news
One after the other to portray their views
Am I to accept what they say at face value
Are we all doomed to death and failure
I guess they are saying the outlook is grim
Beware of your friends, your loved ones, your kin
For they are the cause of our sadness and strife
It’s best to have no one as part of your life
The way that they tell us is we are the cause
We are bad for each other, ignoring their laws
If we touch one another, we surly shall die
Let’s do what we’re told, don’t even ask why
Don’t think of logic, there’s none to be had
Don’t counsel with others, that would be really bad
So get on with your life, but guess what you don’t have one
It’s been taken away, someone’s pulled a fast one
Not even for a moment, does it not make sense
It’s so perfectly natural, there is no defense
So raise a white flag, it’s time to surrender
No need to question this type of agenda
Just herd me to pasture with the other sheep
Don’t try to say nothin’, not even Bo Peep
Please change my DNA and change who I am
And while you are at it take my freedom and friends
And if this is all just a mind game to you
Then just roll the dice for what’s in store for you
It’s not of your saying, it’s been handed down
So jump on board, no need to frown
So let’s play these mind games, Monopoly and Clue
It’s only in chance, destined for you
Now it is your turn, don’t even pass go
The game is not rigged, it’s only for show
So let’s play this mind game, will you play with me
It’s only in chance, ain’t nothin’ for free
Now it is your turn, don’t even pass go
This game is for children ages eight and above
