If I were in Charge of the World…

If I were in charge of the world
I’d cancel war, guns, animal abuse, and also
homework.

If I were in charge of the world
There would be free money, food, and
There would be lots of popcorn.

If I were in charge of the world
There would not be violence, cigarettes, alcohol
or plane crashes.
