Take These People Away From Me
take these people away from me
petty rules,
what good are they for anybody?
somebody save us from insanity
take these middle men away
with their middle management positions
they are,
just fools down on their knees
take these people away from me
they need to take a look
a long hard look,
at the world around them
talking down to people
i think i should just be left
just leave us, just let us be
i cannot see them earning any respect
take these people away from me
James Garratt – Thursday 12th May 1999

Thank you – that is very kind 🙂 I always find it hard to read older pieces, they always feel young to me 🙂 Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
