Analysis of Stupidity



Stupidity- what do you say?
You've always led the way
You've talked me into doing wrong
Whatever life you stay

You'll only want to hold me
And never need me now
You'll always seem to be my type
but that is how I bow

You'll always be my sater
You'll feed me more somehow
Perhaps you are the smarter
and let me see as how

I wonder if you'll come to me
when I am making sense
Perhaps you'll know from others
that that is our expense
