expecting people not to be materialistic
is just being plain simplistic
seeking love without money
is for those who find tragedy funny
going through life smiling
is too bloody tiring
hoping for the best in a bad situation
is often the only option
expecting things to change for the better
is as passe as a hand-written letter
making poverty history
is all very fine in theory
taking on people in authority
is an exercise in futility
choosing to be an idealist
is only for the masochist
the idea of fucking
is what makes sex seem so elevating
a surefire way to live a life so depressing
is to spend it thinking
in case you're wondering about the first line
it's little more than a clever headline
that's right, my lad
you've just been had.
again.
