The Land of Plenty

We live in the land of plenty
Yes we do
We live in the land of plenty
Dear God it’s true
Plenty of suffering and pain
Plenty of dark skies and rain
Plenty of people living a lie
Plenty of people getting high
Plenty of people hungry
Plenty of people not free
Plenty of people doing time
Plenty of people making crime
Plenty of ill will and hate
Plenty of useless idle debate
Plenty of people with no job
Plenty of people following the mob
Plenty of people who don’t care
Plenty of people who just won’t share
Plenty of people sick with greed
Plenty of people in dire need
Plenty of people killing and dying in war
Plenty of people wanting more
There’s plenty of plenty
But don’t give none of it to me
