stripe and kith

You find out too much about your fellow man

You don't want to know any more.

But, that's the thing about your fellow man,

He's always talking about why he's right

And every other fellow man in fact is not,

Neither "fellow" nor even "man".

And you can't even shut your ears, because,

Eyes as well,

They are everywhere and always right.

But you knew that already, knew it too well,

And whether you want to know any more or not,

It is our duty to.

So that nothing is allowed to pass

That should never even have started.

We can do that, surely, you, I, all,

We 'fellow men' of every stripe and kith.
