Laurence Overmire - Two Motorists lyrics

Two motorists Stranded on the highway Equal in all respects of dignity and character Are differently disposed. The first finds several amiable strangers stopping To aid him in his distress. Happy in his fortune, he exclaims, “Thank God all men are born so good.” The second finds a thousand faceless automobiles Streaming past without a care. Disgusted and perplexed, he shakes his fist at the heavens, and cries, “Damn you world, that men are born so selfish and cruel.” Meanwhile, people everywhere On every highway Just go on being People.
