Not Everyone Does

Not everyone does love their national flag
Or of their nationality does love to brag
Of the praises of flag and country they never does sing
One might say of them this is not just their thing

Not everyone does join with the football crowd
In the noisy big stadium where the cheering is loud
They have other interests in life to pursue
That our different interestd makes us more interesting as people only happens to be true

Not everyone supports the big war parade
Where the names of dead war heroes are not allowed for to fade
The patriotic majority have their own home grown foes
In those who the celebrating of war does oppose

Not everyone to others themselves does promote
As the sort of people who are worthy of note
The humble may well be in minority
But they will not become extinct in the twenty first century

Not everyone drinks alcohol or patronize a pub
Or not everyone is in a community social club
If we all shared the same interests how boring we would be
With such an assumption would you not agree?

Many of us are quite different in our own way
And this makes us more interesting as people does seem true to say
If we all shared the same interests and in ways thought the same
We would seem very boring for want of a better name.
