chimes ringing
the dog's barking
and God's observing
today seems quiet
bored and lonesome
filled with noise
you don't hear
children are begging
mothers denying
sweets and fun
their will to run
hula hoop's going
jump rope's fast
feet are moving
bodies breathing
man, won't you listen
won't you try
to understand this
afternoon noise?
mouths can speak
mouths can eat
mouths can kiss
but they have no minds
brains can think
brains can solve
brains can direct
but they lack a heart
fingers can point
fingers can pull
fingers can take
but they can break
have you a mind?
have you a heart?
have you anything
that i can't break?
