For The Hypocrites.

(Read if you dare.)

This is for all the hypocrites who insist that lies are truth, even when those lies have been proven to be lies.

This is for all the hypocrites in Washington DC, and all levels of government, who in the name of cost control and smaller government, keep cutting programs aimed at helping those who have little while keeping loopholes that allow the rich, and powerful corporations, to avoid paying taxes and pocket the obscene profits.

This is for all the hypocrites who say they believe in liberty, freedom, the right to privacy, and want to “keep government off the backs of the people” yet they pass laws telling women what they can and cannot do with their own bodies.

Wake up people. John Lennon is gone but his words live on. Listen. It’s time to make different choices.

“Crippled Inside”  by John Lennon

You can shine your shoes and wear a suit
You can comb your hair and look quite cute
You can hide your face behind a smile
One thing you can’t hide
Is when you’re crippled inside

You can wear a mask and paint your face
You can call yourself the human race
You can wear a collar and a tie
One thing you can’t hide
Is when you’re crippled inside

Well now, you know that your cat has nine lives, babe
Nine lives to itself
But you only got one
And a dog’s life ain’t fun
Mama, take a look outside

You can go to church and sing a hymn
You can judge me by the colour of my skin
You can live a lie until you die
One thing you can’t hide
Is when you’re crippled inside

Take it, cousin

Well now, you know that your cat has nine lives, babe
Nine lives to itself
But you only got one
And a dog’s life ain’t fun
Mama, take a look outside

You can go to church and sing a hymn
Judge me by the colour of my skin
You can live a lie until you die
One thing you can’t hide
Is when you’re crippled inside
One thing you can’t hide
Is when you’re crippled inside

One thing you can’t hide
Is when you’re crippled inside
