Utopia

Edbo 1967 (Hospital)

Free verse
New York
New York, what a shame
Land of the free
Home of decay
Death, destruction
And You the blame

Seattle
Seattle, please keep the rain
So hard to laugh
Through all of the pain
Green hair, heroin
All the insane

LA
LA, you can keep the sun
I just have to laugh
At what you've become
Disease, drugs
UTOPIA

Where is justice
Where is normalcy
Gone forever
Replaced by social justice
LUNACY

So go and
Burn it all down
Burn it all down

I have gone mad surrounded by
MADNESS
