Child’s Play

Follow the leader
Do exactly what is done
Don't step out of line, don't take the time
To question right or wrong

And mother may I
Do what Simon said (if that's what he said)
Cause I don't know who to ask anymore than
What the right answer is

I read the Bible.
I read the Quran.
The Torah, the Tao, and the life lessons taught by
The little Orphan Ann

Nothing adds up
It's all copy and paste
Looking for advice is nothing more than preference in taste

So tell me what you want
There's no wrong choice
It's all choices and consequences in an
Endless sea of noise

Life is peculiar
Alone with no place to go
We make up our minds about place and time
But have no way to know

Now just tell me something
And say it loud
I can go or stay and neither one matters anyhow

And I'd forgive you
If that's what you need
But seeing your faults is something that would
Take you an eternity

Just tell me something
Anything will do
This game of hide and seek where I try to peek
Is nothing new

Life is peculiar
Life is mundane
The truth is as serious as the rules in a
Child's game
