The Mighty People

The Mighty People

A Poem by MyGeneration
"

Inspired by life and 1984.

"

The people

Oh the people

The mighty people


On a pedestal

On which they stand

They shout and whine

As mighty as they can


The people

Oh the people

The mighty people


Children are learning

To be dim

To be endearing

To your every whim


The people

Oh the people

The mighty people


The adults

Are all insane

Although they fault

They’re never to blame


The people

Oh the people

The mighty people


The people

Who hide away

Who didn’t try

Are betrayed


The people

Oh the people

The mighty people


They chant

And they sway

Their eyes dull

and slightly glazed


But no one knows

no one sees

no one has contempt

for the people

quite like me.


THE PEOPLE

OH THE PEOPLE

THE MIGHTY PEOPLE!
