In A World Of winners And Losers

For the winner 'tis not easy to be humble since victory does taste so sweet
And as for the one who did not win 'tis hard to be gracious in defeat
In a World of winners and losers the winners only seem to count
And the tag of the gallant second to nothing does seem to amount,
In a World of winners and losers the winners we do glorify
And set them up as a good example that others they ought to go by
But we never look on them for their sense of values or ask to their higher selves are they true
The truly good overlooked by the masses though credit in heaps they are due,
So many so called winners in life are defective a false face to the World they show
They may seem the big winners in our eyes but little about them we know
We pigeon hole people by money since money adds to social power
But when you look at your garden flower bed the weed there does outgrow the flower,
The glory it goes to the winners and always for them the encore
And it is a World for winners one might say we've heard that before.
