We Are In The Age Of Narcissism

We are in the age of narcissism where self promotion is the in thing
You may struggle for to be successful if your own praises you cannot sing
Many young people daydream of glory but daydreams do seldom come true
There is an old saying from past decades that from life we do receive our due
Us humans are very competitive with each other for success to compete
For to be number 1 in your neighborhood and be number 1 on your street
For to be celebrated and famous the toast and the talk of the town
Though many daydream of being famous few ever do know of renown
And yet the most famous are mortals and as mortals we are born to die
The same for the mouse and the rabbit the same for the monarch and i
We are in the age of narcissism where to praise self is seen as okay
The winners take all of the glory that's life as some are known to say
And yet we are born as mortals to live for awhile and to die
The same for the hare and the parrot and the same for the president and i.
