Duty Bound Poem by Mary Champion

The beautiful people live in California
and the dutiful people live here.
I am one of the dutiful people,
everything that I do's insincere.
I want to be one of the beautiful people,
I'm sick of doing what's right.
I wanna do something that I wanna do.
and I wanna do it tonight.

The beautiful people let it all hang out,
but the dutiful people just hide
all their emotions behind an illusion
cos they're only real deep inside.
I want to be one of the beautiful people,
I want to be honest somehow.
I want to do something that I want to do,
and I want to do it right now.
