No Crisis Today

Once I was queen of chaos
Flash of neon in my head
Breathed in terror's torment
Of status quo, well bred.
Was missing the living
While waking up the dead
But misery is no comfort
So I put the dread to bed

This world can be confusing
With its cant's and don't-you-dares
Seems tragedy can find us
Mid the apples and the pears
Society of happiness
Built on commercial shores
Where the corporate institution
Screams the song of score and more.

No crisis today
Wolf's hit the hay
Sleeping, not creeping
Devouring the prey
No fear of the reaper
Or gray hairs that stray
No crisis, is priceless
I'm enjoying today.

I won't spend all my money
On that trendy S.U.V.
I don't need to starve my way
To skinny if you please
I found my inner child
She's a brat who wants her way
But I don't want your pretty pills
To help me through the day.

You can keep your empty promises
Of the tin you call fine
A life that's lived pretending
Isn't worth the time.

No crisis today
Wolf's hit the hay
Sleeping, not creeping
Devouring the prey
No fear of the reaper
Or gray hairs that stray
No crisis, is priceless
Enjoying today.

Keep my dreams in my pocket
Won't let them escape
Be true to my heartbeat
Change the channel of my fate
Won't be a distilled spirit
Or aroma of wine
I'm happy in this skin
With this joy of mine.

No crisis today
Wolf's hit the hay
Sleeping, not creeping
Devouring the prey
No fear of the reaper
Or gray hairs that stray
No crisis, is priceless
Enjoying today.
