One Of The Tribeless

A law abiding person you pay your taxes and you vote
But in your community one seen not to be worthy of note
Not a member of any community or sporting club
And you are not a patron of the local pub
On your side of the town in interests with others you have little to share
You are one of the tribeless and your sort are rare
You live in your own way and do your own thing
And your own praises or the praises of others you never do sing
An outsider in your own community but you like it this way
On the politics of your locality you have nothing to say
You do not have friends or you do not have foes
There is a price for being tribeless one does have to suppose
Respect to the privacy of others you pay
And you are quite kind in your own gentle way.
