To Take In The Game!

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 I turned on the telly what did I see?
All sorts of despair staring at me
With tears in my eyes
And my heart filled with pain
I flicked on the remote
To take in the game!

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 As I changed over channels
There in the mud
Images vivid and covered in blood
Made me feel livid and lacking in love
I made a note to do something
Upstairs in me brain
Then flicked on the remote
To take in the game!

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 I watched as young children
With gaunt empty eyes
Used weak bony hands
To ward of the flies
How can this happen
Who shall we blame?
I flicked on the remote
To take in the game!

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 As I at last found the game
There were just minutes left
All I had witnesssed
Had made me depressed
Tomorrow is here now
Another new day
I flicked on the remote
To make it all go away!

Notes

Peace.
