How's That For Alright?

How's That For Alright?

A Poem by Dave G.
"

These are lyrics so think of a funky groove while you're reading it.

"

Where does this poison go?

That’s pumped in my veins with a steady flow

What does it change in me?

And what’s it done to my sanity?

 

What makes it feel so good?

I’m not going to stop because you say I should

Who am I letting down?

And what have I lost that you have found?

 

But are we alright?

If I don’t believe a single word you say

Is it alright?

If I believe there is another way

How’s that for alright?

How’s that for alright?

 

What got us in this mess?

Not a woman in a suit or a man in a dress

Where do the dead ends lead?

And what is that thing called democracy?

 

Who to point the finger at?

They’re pointing in the mirror but it ain’t pointing back

Who’s going to take the fall?

And is it all for one or one for all?

 

But are we alright?

If I don’t believe a single word you say

Is it alright?

If I believe there is another way

How’s that for alright?

How’s that for alright?

 

Where do the rules come from?

And does He even mind if I break some?

Who tells us what to be?

If it is not Him than it ought to be me

 

What makes the sun still rise?

There’s nothing left to do but get old and die

Who wrote this great big plan?

And can He be replaced with a better man?

 

But are we alright?

If I don’t believe a single word you say

Is it alright?

If I believe there is another way

How’s that for alright?

How’s that for alright?

 

How’s that for alright?

How’s that for alright?
