| I write in hopes that by the time you get this letter | |
| We may live to see a change for the better | |
| Or are we so devoted to these wretched selfish motives | |
| When the cold facts and figures all add up | |
| They cannot contradict this sad burlesque | |
| This sad burlesque | |
| With miserable failures making entertainment of our fate | |
| Laughter cannot dignify of elevate | |
| This sad burlesque | |
| Now can they recall being young and idealistic | |
| Before wading knee-deep in hogwash and arithmetic | |
| The pitying smirk | |
| The argument that runs like clockwork | |
| Will run down eventually and splutter to a stop | |
| P.S. Well by now you know the worst of it | |
| And we've heard all the alibis that they've rehearsed | |
| The smug predictions | |
| If it's not a contradiction | |
| Please have faith in human nature | |
| And have mercy on the creatures in this sad burlesque | |
| This sad burlesque | |
| With miserable failures making entertainment of our fate | |
| Laughter cannot dignify of elevate | |
