What Happened

We can't go outside without fear,

suddenly there are so many insults to hear

We can't display an opinion, without being told that we're wrong

you can get in trouble just for singing a simple song

If you're black, gay or transgender, your life must be tough

and if you're a Muslim, you're really living in the rough

Everyone is scared of everyone, and I'm left to wonder;

what happened?

Transgender people can't use the bathroom

if you're a woman, there's nothing you don't have to groom

Gays can't hold hands, or adopt a child

Global warmth is upon us, no one cares that the weather is mild

If you're a Muslim, you're a threat to national security

And you're prude and lame if you stick to your purity

Being politically correct is all the rage

In fact, the word "lame" shouldn't be on this page

The Earth is dying, most people don't have a clue

To escape we take LSD, smoke weed or sniff glue

We cling to the idea that love conquers all

We're in complete denial of our imminent fall

What happened to us,

I don't have a clue

But I think about it a lot,

do you?
