Modern times

I don't get much sleep
I don't like to eat
I don't take advice
let me live my life
 Land of the free?
It's just a metaphor now
And home of the brave?
People just like the sound
 He sits on his couch
Watching CNN
He'll complain about the world
But he'll never chime in

Welcome to the modern times!
Where we have social skills like mimes
We live our life on a phone
And we complain about feeling alone

Denounce morals!
And promote sass
It seems our only concern
Is about "dat ass!"
 Religions and God!
The biggest killers in the world
Let it control your thoughts
And good people get hurt!
 Submit to and trust
The dirty no good cops
But if you step out of line
You'll probably get shot!

Welcome to the modern times!
