People, people, everywhere,

and all their brains did shrink,

people, people, everywhere,

and not one did think.

Having fun and playing games,

and makinjg noise and losing face,

and reading crap and "living"

and doing work and talking,

and going but not really living.

And no one cares or thinks,

or knows but say they do,

and think they do and want to.

And little kids parade by and people say "Oh how cute"

and the kids don't know and they really don't care,

and they are trying to be older while everyone else wants to be

younger.

Richard Simmons is on tv,

and people laugh and say "how I hate him"

but when everybody likes it they do too.

And everyone looks the same,

but says they're different,

but want to fit in and wish everybody liked them

but say they don't care so that everybody will.

They get in and wait for their germs and pay their parents' money

to buy things their parents wouldn't want them eating.

Then they say "this isn't worth it" but they stay anyway

even when they could be improving the world

but sit and talk and say nothing

and no one cares except them what they think.

Then they get out and say "I'm glad that's over"

but then they come back to visit

because it was the most fun they ever had

except it's what you make of it

and so they decide to make it the most fun they ever had

so they can grow up saying "why isn't my life like that?"

and then they realize you turn into your parents
