I entered this world with a petulant shout,
Saying, “Let me go back, I didn’t want out!”
“This world is too noisy, so crowded and smelly,
I liked it much better inside my mom’s belly.
I’ve heard about how there are folks who are rich,
And others who sleep in the dirt in a ditch.
This world is in turmoil, there’s power in money,
And if you are poor, it’s ‘Too bad Sonny,’
“As long as I’m out here I’d better take note,
For when I am older, to be sure to vote!”
