What a Wonderful World?

If Louis Armstrong were still here, would he still sing the same song?

What words would he use to express the random killing of innocent people and civilians and the ample resources the terrorists have access to?

Would he still believe we live in a wonderful world?

I see grenades of green; red blood too

I see them explode; for me and for you

And I think to myself; what a terrible world.

 

I see terrorists roaming; with the authorities

Dark, gloomy days; dark scary nights

And I think to myself; what a terrible world.

 

The colors of loss, so common; pain so raw,

Are also on the faces; of people going by

I see the NSG saving lives; saying, save them all too,

They’re really saying; India, anything for you.

 

I hear babies cry; watch their parents die,

They’ll learn much more; than I’ll never know

And I think to myself; what a terrible world.
