Village People

Post by Cath »

Village People
The people in this village are very strange,
Everyone’s different but they all seem the same.
Scurrying around after each other,
You’d think they all had the same father and mother.
Everyone knows who everyone is,
And they all sit together at the local pub quiz.
You can’t do a thing without everyone knowing,
They always see who is coming and going.
If you want privacy then listen to me,
Don’t live in a village because they all will see.

Aha, I see a small dark vibe to it, but to me seems like a logical thing to say to someone at the end. "Don't live in a village because they all will see."

They would seem like a memorable saying. :D

It seems to me that this poetry is from a person who used to live in the village and now lives in the city and reminds us about different life out there.
But I also think that this lines look like a hip-hop song. :D

Sounds like where I grew up. Underfed and overbred.
How perfectly goddamned delightful it all is, to be sure.
