Description
This is a song that I wrote my Junior year in high school. My English prof gave us an assignment to write a satire poem or song (just lyrics). So this was my satire.

Lyrics
Easy to Recline
Underachiever:
I will strive for mediocrity
Try to just get by, in hopes I’ll
Save up all my energy,
Do something great before I die
For now I’m just a little high school boy
With nothing on the line
Need to remember, when September comes,
I’ll be nothing but a mime again
Chorus:
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
Spoiled:
I am crazy rich and self absorbed
And I’m pretty immature
I’m disrespectful, and neglectful,
Of all of those who are poor
I deserve the best, the rest, will fail the test
But I’ll succeed because my dad,
Has a billion dollars
So there’s no reason to be sad
Chorus:
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us, and drain us
Short-sighted:
I’ll just have fun, run all day in the sun,
And party all night long
Live for the moment, there’s no atonement
For my sins they’re far too wrong
No use for truce, I’m out there on the loose,
You can be sure I’ve done it all,
I can’t be strong ‘nough, hold out long ‘nough
Too tired from holding up this wall
Chorus:
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us, and drain us, and stain us
Underachiever:
I will strive for mediocrity
Try to just get by, in hopes I’ll
Save up all my energy,
Do something great before I die
For now I’m just a little high school boy
With nothing on the line
Need to remember, when September comes,
I’ll be nothing but a mime again
Chorus:
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
Spoiled:
I am crazy rich and self absorbed
And I’m pretty immature
I’m disrespectful, and neglectful,
Of all of those who are poor
I deserve the best, the rest, will fail the test
But I’ll succeed because my dad,
Has a billion dollars
So there’s no reason to be sad
Chorus:
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us, and drain us
Short-sighted:

And let the world entertain
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us
But my hope still remains
That there’s one who can save us
Though it’s easy to recline
And let the world entertain us, and drain us, and stain us
