A Change in Treatment

 
The way people treat each other
Is something I would change
It something of which all of us are to are to blame
A teacher telling a student 
he's not smart enough to pass
The student bullying a person
Out the the money they may have 
That person might say 
something that really hurts
And from there it will only get worse  
It happens in America, in Sweden, in Rome 
Sometimes even closer to home
Of course we make just one change
This problem will never cause any more pain
Because peoples treatment will ripple 
people would not be the same
The teacher would help the student pull up his grades
The Student starts an anti-bullying campaign 
A person says something nice
 A ripple of kindness takes flight 
so make a change we all can do it
And when we really get down to it
We can change the treatment of others
And then change the world
