That's Life

Unfair, unfair, barked dog to squirrel
after he jumped to tree.
Don't you know I can't climb?
Play by the rules.


Cheater, cheater, screeched cat to bird
after she took to wing.
Don't you understand I can't fly?
Play by the rules
.

Foul, foul, creaked tree to gale
after limb cracked and snapped.
Don't you realize I'm not strong?
Play by the rules.

Murderer, murderer, cried crowd to no one
after missile demolished Mosque.
Don't you care for human life?
Play by the rules.

Terrorist, terrorist, spoke President to Press
after bomber destroyed marketplace.
Don't you believe in God?
Play by the rules.
