THese Days There Is So Much Madness

THese Days There Is So Much Madness

These days, there is much madness.
These days, there is much sadness.
On TV, many people lie.
Politicians are all lying;
So many people lie dying
On the streets, many people die.
Too many gun nuts shooting guns,
Killing too many of our sons.
Leaders always seek a fall guy.
