It Does Seem A Sad Thing

It does seem a sad thing for to have to say That the poor of the World are getting poorer by the day And the material gap ever keeps growing wide Between those who have plenty and those without a god on their side It is sad to think in the twenty first century That billions of people live in extreme poverty With the increase in the human population the more inequality In a fair Human world this never would be Those who believe all people are equal believe their own lie The only thing the wealthy and poor share in common is they are all born to die Millions are homeless and stateless and of malnutrition dying That many people are doing it quite tough in the World there can be no denying The majority of the material wealth of the World is owned by the few And this is not saying anything that is new.
