HOW DEEP

HOW DEEP IS THE OCEAN
HOW BLUE IS THE SKY
HAVE YOU EVER ASKED YOURSELF
OR WONDERED WHY
HOW DEEP,HOW DEEP, HOW DEEP.......


MAN IS TRYING EVERY IMPOSSIBLE FEAT
SUCH AS GOING TO THE MOON
BABIES BORNED FROM ANOTHER'S WOMB
POLITICIANS WHOSE SUPPOSED TO LEAD
DIPPING HANDS IN POCKETS
FROM POOR MAN THEY STEAL
HOW DEEP,HOW DEEP, HOW DEEP


FOLKS TRY TO BE OF THE OPPOSITE SEX
SOMETIMES YOU WONDER, WHATS  NEXT?
KIDS ARE DYING THAT  HAVEN'T BEEN BORNED
FOLKS WALK THE STREET AND THEY ARE SCORNED
HOW DEEP,HOW DEEP, HOW DEEP


COUNTRY CAN'T STOP
THE INFLUX OF DRUGS
PHONES ARE TAPPED
AND HOUSES ARE BUGGED
HOW DEEP, HOW DEEP, HOW DEEP


KIDS GRADUATING
WITHOUT AN EDUCATION
CAN'T READ A SIMPLE LINE
WHILST THEY WERE IN SCHOOL
THEY ACTED AS FOOLS
NOW GOT TO DO THE TIME
NO JOB,JUST CAN'T GET ENOUGH
SO THEY GO OUT AND
GET THE WHITE STUFF
HOW DEEP, HOW DEEP, HOW DEEP MAN,HOW DEEP

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
