This imperfect life requires one to install shocks
to absorb the bumps of life’s turbulence…
Shocks for a failed happily ever after
So that you don’t end up in an asylum
behind bars
or six feet under
Shocks for being laid off work
even after your excellent performance
So that you don’t end up in an asylum
behind bars
or six feet under
Shocks for being stabbed in the back
By your closest and trusted confidant
Your best friend
So that you don’t end up in an asylum
behind bars
or six feet under
Shocks for an injustice carried out by your own kind
So that you don’t end up in an asylum
behind bars
or six feet under
Shocks for losing all the wealth you had
by circumstance or your own stupidity
So that you don’t end up in an asylum
behind bars
or six feet under
Shocks for time and chance
that befall us all
So that you don’t end up in an asylum
behind bars
or six feet under
