We gather as there is safety together
But what do we lose as each we are tethered?
I think the one thing that we all have given up
Is free will as from this cup we can no longer sup?
Do I play my music so that I annoy my neighbour?
If I do something out of the ordinary do I ask for a favour?
I cannot always sit or sing where or when I please
If I didn't wash I would transmit to others fleas
There are rules now for everything that you do
If we didn't have them we would live in a zoo
So I am really free to do what ever I want
Unless it annoys, is against the law or drinks from someone else's font!
