The Lamb, the Badger and the Bee

Meet the badger, an angry, tortured soul
Pleading for affection, a hand to hold
She strives for love, for people's gaze
Baiting, pining, in need of praise
Constant whining, won't leave me alone
Why should I subject myself to this?

There's the bee in constant motion
Obsessive compulsive productivity
Never resting, an image to keep
Can't switch off, he's in too deep

Could there be, a more conforming family
Banality, someone set me free

And now the lamb
He wanders free
Full of innocence, joy, and naivеty
Optimistic child mind
Not a care in the world, he's flying blind

Thеre's no green light, no highway to heaven
But his mind's so pure, with a heart of gold
His days are clear as crystal
Stars in his eyes
He'll reach for the stars
Spirit soar high

Could there be, a more conforming family
Banality, someone set me free
Can't you see
The plain and pointless tragedy
Of it all
Can you not agree?

How could you leave me now
Leave me here and hide away
Do you find me sickening
Why do you hate me, son?

I've had enough of your ways
If solitude is what you crave
I'll leave you, all alone
Leave you now, all alone

Never enough time in the day
All the things I need to do right now
Never any cause for delay
Never ever any time to spare

Work hard throughout all your lifetime
Striving day and night to do your share

Oh, isn't life happy
So simple and carefree
A world full of beauty
There is so much to see
Humanity is a gift
You people are so great
It's difficult to hate
Did I mention you're so great
Your life should be happy
So simple and carefree
You live among beauty
There is so much to see

Could you three
The lamb, the badger and the bee
Could you leave me be?
