It's a Crazy Crazy World

We wake up in the morning
Swipe our hand left or right
Fetch the mobile and hold it tight
Neither the sun nor the birds we see
A beep from the mobile and we blush with glee.
Indeed, it's a crazy crazy world!

Good morning, good afternoon, good night we wish
A smiley is our emotion, no matter what the situation
We call when called for, we answer when asked for
We forget what the mouth is about
We speak out often only when we shout.
Indeed, it's a crazy crazy world!

We educate for the grade
We dress to parade
We eat to fill, we party to chill
We work to possess, we work out to stress
And, wait for the weekend
Because, the day won't end.
Indeed, it's a crazy crazy world!

We envy our neighbours
We envy the colleagues
No matter if life is easy or tough
We don't seem to have enough.
Indeed, it's a crazy crazy world!

We know it's a lot crazy
We know we're going overboard
We won't drop the mobile
Till the thumb is bored.
Indeed, it's a crazy crazy world!

Now, my thumb is numb
I deserve a break 
Plug on the device
Be a lil wise
Rest the bulging eyes
Wait for the beep
And, wish them good night
Before I sleep.


Indeed, it's a crazy crazy world!
