------Who Makes The Rules------

Why is it written 
you live and you die
And what makes you  laugh 
and next day you cry
Sometimes you're good 
then later you're bad 
There are times when you're happy
yet some moments you're sad

Why must you want to be rich 
if you've always been poor
And want let inside 
if you're outside the door
Why do people learn more
yet never get smart
Why don't people treat people 
as they're told by their heart?
