Pretty little thing with as sparkle in her eye Never had a problem with getting a guy, Pretty little thing with the cutest ever smile Knows all the tricks and how to beguile, Pretty little thing loves a trick and a treat What you gonna get ain’t always sweet, Pretty little thing loves blood on…

Governments that blame everybody else And fit to hold the post of power, Dodging accountability and responsibility Pointing the finger at other in attempt at distracting, What ever happened to dignity and respect A Government that blames others is one with nothing else left, Making the rich richer and the poor struggle more Can in…

I don’t need your permission And yet I seek it anyway, That’s because I care about What you think I think and say, I want to know your thoughts too And though you don’t control me, I want to see the things I see Even if we cannot agree, I know I’ve given you reason…
