Robots
Robots
Robots living everyday
Just like the one, the other
Everyone who thinks like us
We welcome as a brother
Who we accept, and totally
But when we meet a fellow
Who, has another point of view
With him we're not so mellow.
Our parents teach us how to think
No mater right or wrong
Their parents taught them just the same
Opinions just as strong
We're born a Christian, or a Jew
Or whatever we've been taught
These folk who yield authority
They don't allow us thought.
And so nobody ever grows
To be original
We must stick to the status Quo
We have no choice at all
Politicians have their say
And they, we all must follow
As we live our lives each day
Our minds so very hollow.
