Part I
|
|
Terry
|
Are you optimistic
|
'bout the way things are going?
|
|
Peter
|
No, I nver ever think of it at all
|
|
Terry
|
Don't you ever worry
|
When you see what's going down?
|
|
Peter
|
No, I try to mind my business,
|
that is, no business at all
|
|
Terry
|
When it's time to function
|
as a feeling human being, will your
|
Bachelor of Arts help you get by?
|
|
Peter
|
I hope to study further,
|
a few more years or so. I also hope
|
to keep a steady high
|
|
Terry
|
Will you try to change
|
things, use the power that you have,
|
the power of a million new ideas?
|
|
Peter
|
What is this power you
|
speak of and this need for things to
|
change? I always thought
|
that everything was fine
|
|
Terry
|
Don't you feel repression just
|
closing in around?
|
|
Peter
|
No, the campus here is very, very free
|
|
Terry
|
Does it make you angry
|
the way war is dragging on?
|
|
Peter
|
Well, I hope the President
|
knows what he's into, I don't know
|
|
Terry
|
Don't you ever see the starvation
|
in the city where you live, all the
|
needless hunger all the
|
needless pain?
|
|
Peter
|
I haven't been there lately,
|
the country is so fine, but my
|
neighbors don't seem hungry 'cause
|
they haven't got the time
|
|
Terry
|
Thank you for the talk,
|
you know you really eased my mind
|
I was troubled by the shapes
|
of things to come.
|
|
Peter
|
Well, if you had my
|
outlook your feelings would be
|
numb, you'd always think
|
that everything was fine
|
|
Part II

We can make it happen
