Feel Free to Choose - By Vaughan Jones

We plunder earth’s treasure for our own pleasure,
We exploit all the gifts within her core.
We adorn ourselves with nature's fare,
Yet stressed and believe life is so unfair.
We war, we kill, we manipulate and dominate,
Power’s our aim, control without constraint.

We have no choice; we cry wolf en mass,
Feel free to choose, we are the wolf - alas!!

Media footage that’ll blow you away,
Economic leverage to change world sway.
Democratic change where none is wanted,
Global political wrangling is rife.
Rate of change in exchange rates is wild.
The global economy’s at war with itself.

We have no choice; we cry wolf en mass,
Feel free to choose, we are the wolf - alas!!

We love, we hate, we constantly frustrate,
Fear and revenge our lowest state.
The human is an animal of reason it’s said,
But the animal in human's the worst kind instead.
Who’s the next one-world power for us all,
Aren’t we controlled and nailed to the wall?

We have no choice; we cry wolf en mass,
Feel free to choose, we are the wolf - alas!!

We’re slaves, masters, paupers and kings,
Masters of our own destinies we think.
The human animal destroys all and kind,
The animal in human is the worst you’ll find.
Freedom of expression, freedom of choice,
Trapped with no choice, shout with one voice.

We have no choice; we cry wolf en mass,
Feel free to choose, we are the wolf - alas!!
