What a time it was

What a time it was. With so few friends to turn to…
What a time it was. When all we did seemed wrong!
We'd broken all bonds and the battle plans were drawn…
What a time, what a time it was.


It was a shocking day when we I was born. Most people seemed to think this, so I assume it must be true. That's the principle behind democracy, I believe.

In late may of 2022, this shocking day was. Luckily for me, we had progressed as people by this point; instead of ostracizing those who threatened the old ways, we embraced them. The old ways, of course, being the way of equality.

And what an outrage it caused when some spokesperson said it! But to say that I disagreed with him would be disengenuous. After all, I'm not anyone else, and so I'm not equal to anyone else. No one else would fight for the old days anymore.


Now I don't say we were right, and I don't say we were wrong, I'm just trying to tell how it was, in simple song.
