What the Hell ?
What the Hell ?
Love is patient , love is kind ?
I'm about to , lose my mind
Someone now , just cut me off
And hit my car , began to scoff
Resignation , soon finding fault
Breaking wheels , come to a halt
In the line , the grocery store
No one wants to , clean the floor
Bread is on , the canning shelf
To lazy too , commit thyself ...
To put things back , such a disgrace
This world is such , a lazy place
Cut in line , because their rude
Just because , their lives are crude
Middle fingers , in the air
No one seems , to give a care
What has happened , to this world ?
Incomprehension , fists are curled
Rudeness now , is nothing new
Dealing with , the whole day through
People live , in toxic shock
And wonder why , their houses lock
Human nature , gone to shit
I can't wait , this life to quit
Can't control , their attitude
By why are they , so freekin' rude ?
Sin the nature , of our heart
I must now , begin to start
To live my life , as though I am
Not provoked , don't give a damn
The problem that , I'm looking through
No loving eyes , just like you ?
