The Stars Are Laughing

The stars are up there laughing

See the twinkle in their eyes

Gazing on our foolish world

As we flirt with our demise

Nuclear weapons proliferate

But no one seems to care

Donald Trump talks lots of shit

But more focused on his hair

Climate change is gaining steam

Just look around the globe

Hard to argue with the facts

Except for anti-science toads

Corona Virus runs amuck

And we’re not up to task

The richest country in the world

Can’t agree to wear a mask

Dictators rising in the world

Democracy in decline

America used to lead the way

But not with Trump on high

Maybe I’ll just end my life

This could be my last text

Nah, I’m just too curious

To see what happens next

So settle down Mr. Milky Way

And all you other stars

We’ll get to you and settle your hash

After we mess around with Mars
