Life in a first world country isn't easy

It actually makes me quite queasy

To think that I only have the iPhone 4

And every day I have to do a chore

That my dad makes me walk the dog

In rain, snow, sun, hail or fog!

I have to eat toast that is burnt

And wear clothes that aren't current

I have to clean my room

Share a washroom!

My house is too small

I'm only 5 feet tall

With all my problems it makes me think

'bout those who barely have enough to drink

I don't have a good phone

When some kids live alone

I have hours of chores to do

When kids are battling the flu

I have to walk the dog every day

When other kids don't have a pet for play

I have to eat some bad food

Others don't have food, I'm so rude!

Who cares about the current clothes

Many don't have any, and froze

I have a small room, and want a bigger home

While others have no where to live alone

Grass ain't greener on the other side

All these blessing we put aside

So remember next time you throw away food

That some don't have any food to throw away

You may be so rude

But others have no say

Keep that in mind

Cause we are so blind
