Tomorrow Will Never Come

The liars assembled in uniform
and decreed laws that lies inform
That tomorrow never comes
Where in fact it does

the audience listened and believed
that grey hair is where wisdom is derived
and embraced the hearsays
as if the truth on the highways

The Grey haired echo 'Leaders of tomorrow'
And that's why they can't step down to follow.
and the young believed in unison and with dancing
waiting for tomorrow that is never coming

Now the prophet has declared from the mountains
that tomorrow is coming like rains
to sweep away our bare land
Like a tsunami storm to the mainland

for we never saved for retirement
we never did succession planning
we never had a generational transfer
we never thought of global warming

And deep within our hearts we believed
that tomorrow will never come.
but its later than we think…..
much more later

we need to plan for the future
learn to save for the old age
eat well for a healthier long life
invest in the young for leadership
and much of all
believe in our heart that tomorrow
is coming sooner than we think.

And when tomorrow comes
we shall embrace it with open hands
