Welcome To The Jungle

 

got friends to the left of me enemy's to the right

here I am stuck in the middle with you

the times they are a changing a chance to rewind

a challenge to be free is a passage of time

getting lost in the sauce of the make believe

people going to & fro

not knowing where it is they want to go

getting caught up in the undertow

many have a heart but I'm afraid they left it in San Francisco

tragedy is a commidity as we swing through the breeze

but these are desolate times

yet we settle for ill but faded rhymes

the casualties are enormous for a stated cause that's atrocious

welcome to the jungle your going to live

a willing chace by way to forgive

let's put are neighbors ahead of ourselves

there are people hurting deep down inside

plowing through each field

one must be willing to yield

time after time

one look at your face and the world turns around

I know I'm a fool but what can I say

to pay for the price at any cost

you will do as you are told until the rights to you are sold

getting stuck inside its mold

carrying everything deep inside

we run away and hide

from the duration of the game

like a mouse stuck in its maze

these are the days when anything goes

as the sun heats up only time will tell when the water will boil

North Korea South Korea & Marlyn Monroe

one day you'll be the king of the forest the next you'll be down on the bottom

thank God we shot Ben Laden
