Commencement Of The Project

Can’t understand, all I try

Originating is used in place of start, why?

Many people like they now prefer

Making words more complicated than they were

English doesn’t need for people to say

None of the long overused words each day

Can’t we just say the project is beginning

Everyone jumping on the bandwagon to say commencing

More classy they think so they use inaugurate

Either we launch or open, is it now too late

No more big words when we got some small

Teach the kids and tell the big maguffies, none at’all

One more strange word and I will shout

For once lets say people and not persons, leave that out

Tell them that you like me can’t understand why

Honorary is used as a title when like any other guy

Elected officials speak with disdain, they lie and fret

Political figures behave dishonorably and few ever regret

Racial case profiling yet the Commissioner disagree

One man treated with graceful leisure but if it was one ah we

Jail first and questions later and the wounds just stitched back

Experts wouldn’t be called for medicine eff um was a Black

Come today I say begin leaving commencement out

There’s no reason these long winded words need ‘evah lef’ yah mout’
