What Would You Do?

What Would You Do?

A Poem by Bo Lanier

WHAT WOULD YOU DO if you

Found out your best friend was dying

Of cancer, would you stay with them

To the end or would you turn around

And run faster than the speed of light...

Well and WHAT WOULD YOU DO

If you found out your folks were broke

And going hungry, would you give

Them your last red cent or would you

Be selfish and keep everything you

Got for the love of your own life, well

I wonder WHAT YOU WOULD DO

I know, I know what I'd do...

WHAT WOULD YOU DO if someone

Really needed your help, would you

Help them or would you just think about

Yourself, would you give a stranger the

Shirt off your back or would you say I'm

Sorry I 've got my own problems right now

And simply walk away well I wonder, I

Wonder WHAT YOU WOULD DO...

I need to know 'cuz I can't spend the

Rest of my life with someone whose

Only out for themselves and if you ever

Had the chance to cheat on me

Would you give into temptation despite

Knowing my feelings for you well I need

To know and I need to know now before

I marry you, tell me, and tell me the truth

WHAT WOULD YOU DO if someone

Really needed your help, would you

Help them or would you just think about

Yourself, would you give a stranger the

Shirt off your back or would you say I'm

Sorry I've got my own problems right now

And simply walk away well I wonder, I

Wonder WHAT YOU WOULD DO...

I hope you'd do the right thing if it

Was the last thing you could do!
