Caricatures

Sometimes when I see
An old lady
With lipstick and fine attire
I can't help but think
Of how ridiculous she looks
Like a monkey in a dress
A vulgar caricature

Oh, I know
That she's just trying to make the most
Of what she has got
And that's all anyone can do

But it makes everything look so silly to me
I find it so hard to take anything seriously
The world just doesn't seem real
So to try and make some sense of it all
I thought that I'd write it down
(Doesn’t work)
