Our Moral Decay

Change just for change sake
is a major mistake

If you follow leaders that are lost
guess who pays the cost

If you have a square and you cut off four corners you have a circle
that reminds me of the common sense wisdom of Studs Terkel

When it comes to self-respect and respecting others
we are going backwards my Sisters and Brothers

In a car reverse is the strongest gear
but, you can't win Indy guiding your car with it's rear

The answer is not as simple is turning back the clock
in order to rebuild our society GOD must be our bedrock

Because  Devil is saying a big hooray
at the state of our moral decay
