LYRICS
The good Samaritan
Thinking he’s humane
But doesn’t grasp the stakes
And how utterly inane
Repeating the same mistakes
Again and again and again
The good Samaritan
Thinking he’s humane
Not considering consequences
Or how ultimately lame
Try on the circumstances
Applied to 1… 5… or 10
Then you’ll know when
After a mile in his shoes walked
Let your talk be talked
Until that time, please refrain
‘less your good deed be deemed inhumane
