Does anyone really know what time it is?

Once upon a midnight dreary

I tried to think of something cheery.

As I lay there, scratching my head

Troubling thoughts crept in instead.

When a program seems right, could it be wrong?

When it doesn’t improve, why still go along?

Traditional values are now out of date

If we live them we’re told that’s not love, it’s now hate.

You’re a bigot if you don’t believe the very same thing

Disagreement is hatred, the singers now sing.

Our Christian foundation and In God We Trust

Offends some so now it is Tolerance or Bust.

Will the time come when anything goes?

We seem headed that way, so I suppose.

If it sounds crazy or even deranged

Is progress calling for things to change?

You may say these things will never be

History disproves that; we’re changed gradually.

What used to be wrong is now labeled right.

It’s okay to kill babies before they see light.

Cops are now bad. Lawbreakers are good.

We tell victims they “can’t”, not that they “could.”

When governments tell us what we must do

They deliberately divide us, me against you.

I have questions, not answers, and I do wonder why

If I’ve lived right and worked hard, how am I a bad guy?

Shouldn’t we question what we are told?

Seek more information on what we are sold?

Shouldn’t we welcome honest debate

Before freedom is gone, before it’s too late?
