[ The Day Is Long ]
[ But The Night Seems Even Longer ]
[ Whenever You Hear A Sad Song ]
[ Does It Make You Stronger? ]


[ Will It Make You Feel Younger? ]
[ But Without The Hunger? ]

[ Maybe It Will Give You Stronger Willpower ]
[ Minute By Minute ]
[ Stronger By The Hour ]

[ Why Would It Take So Long To Do Its Thing? ]
[ Will Music Make Your Ears Ring? ]
[ When You Come To The Table, What Will You Bring? ]

[ Will You Bring Food Or Something To  Talk About? ]
[ If We’re Eating, That’s One Thing ]
[ But When We Talk, Things Get Loud ]
[ Nobody Wants The Words To Sting ]

[ You Have To Remember That When You Come To The Table, There Are Alot Of Ego’s Involved ]
[ Will Ideas Cause A Problem ]
[ That Words Cannot Solve? ]

[ Whatever Happened To The “Me” Generation? ]
[ Were They Put In Time Out? ]
[ Then Eventually Sent To Segregation? ]

[ The “Me” Generation Only Worried About Themselves ]
[ They Only Benefited From What They Did ]
[ They Would Never Even Take Up Coming To The Aid Of Someone Else ]
[ You Could See That Selfish Trait When They Were Just A Kid ]
