you will cry when you have to pay



Smoke get into your eyes
You will not see it for a while
When you open your eyes to see
You think you don't miss a thing

You feel you haven't lost your mind
You look everything seems familiar
You feel comfortable watching television
You laugh at the jokes or cry at the sad drama

When you look hard on it
You realize a subtle change occurs
Somebody has taken your mind
Planting words to make you change

You lived with it for years
Every morning you don't feel the difference
You think you are in paradise
Doing all the familiar chores

Until you are hit with a massive bill
You realize the country in serious spot
Tax introduced to get monies to pay
Giving you less income to satisfy your needs

Is this the way?
Smoke get into your eyes
You think you are in paradise
You will cry when you have to pay
