Hard To Be |
| You’ve heard the story you know how it goes |
| Once upon a garden we were lovers with no clothes |
| Fresh from the soil we were beautiful and true |
| In control of our emotions till we ate the poison fruit |
| And now it’s hard to be a decent human being |
| Wait just a minute you expect me to believe |
| That all this misbehaving grew from one enchanted tree |
| And helpless to fight it we should all be satisfied |
| With this magical explanation for why the living die |
| And why it’s hard to be a decent human being |
| Childbirth is painful |
| Toil to grow our food |
| Ignorance made us hungry |
| Information made us no good |
| Every burden misunderstood |
| I swung my tassel to the left side of my cap |
| Knowing after graduation there will be no going back |
| And no congratulations from my faithful family |
| Some of whom are already fasting to intercede for me |
| Because it’s hard to be a decent human being |
