Need More Good Times

Surrounded by folks at the unemployment line.
Almost out of money, out of time,
Going to lose my house next week,
Is it really just a victimless crime?

The world is getting tougher,
Do we all have to suffer?
If I could just get the bank to refinance,
Why can’t they just take a chance?

Only sad things to hear about these days.
It all just seems a haze.
I’m really getting tired hearing about this kind of stuff
Everybody has had enough.

So, why can’t we just go back?
Somewhere where we only have good news?
To the far end of the rainbow, away from all the ‘blues’,
When the world seemed sane, and life was really good.

Robert Collazo, 8/7/10
