There ought to be a law
“4 Billion Souls”
– The Doors
Numerically updated to 8
Still some time, not too late
“Two, Four, Six, Eight
Billion souls
Are gonna rest
If all our friends
Don’t try their best
To change the way
This world is headed for
We can find our hapiness
It ain’t so hard to find
Just look a little further up the line
Just a little further up in time
Don’t you see that we could be
The first in history
Leavin’ all that we don’t need behind
We could clean it up and make it shine”
There ought to be naught a law.
Think of the level of responsibility nearly 8b people would have to have if there were no man made laws to follow, or be subject to.
Imagine Reimagined
No borders to not cross
No passports to get lost
No speeds to limit
No legislation to inhibit
No regulations to follow
No ignorance in to wallow
No rules to apply
No freedoms to deny
No electric chairs to fry
No reason to lie
No money to exchange
No titanic chairs to rearrange
No governments to legislate
No more hate to create
No authority to enforce
No decisions to reverse
No prisons to hold
No minorities to be rolled
No guns to fire
No assassins for hire
No deities to deceive
No sins to relieve
No power to ascend
No excuses to defend
No taxes to pay
No how no way
No weapons to use
No wars to win or lose
No statutes to limit
No crimes to revisit
No constitutions to amend
No discrepancies to end
No surveillance to watch
No criminals to catch
No eaves to drop
No pigs to slop
No lawyers to prosecute
No defenders to defend
No books to read
No music to hear
Oops, nevermind
