Don't be offended

Comedy doesn't discriminate,
Nothing is taboo,
From making fun of feminist,
To Nazis baking Jews,
And yet people still get offended.

What's wrong with you?

It's fine not to laugh,
If that's what you choose.

But to get mad at comedians,
Means you don't understand.
The goal, our mission,
To make people laugh.
To make fun of the future, present and past.

To take people to dark places
And show them the light.
So don't try to argue that what we say isn't right.

We just want to open your minds,
To the bright side of things...

Like JFK on November 22nd,
1963
