The lyrics in this song from the musical "HAIR" ring true
with what happened on Tuesday.........pay attention
to the words........could be at least several meanings here.....

"Easy to Be Hard" from the musical "HAIR"
lyrics by Gerome Ragni and James Rado
(1968)

"How can people be so heartless?
How can people be so cruel?
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold

How can people have no feelings?
How can they ignore their friends?
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

And especially people
who care about strangers
who care about evil
and social injustice?
Do you only
care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people be so heartless?
You know I'm hung up on you
Easy to give in
Easy to help out

And especially people
who care about strangers
Who say they care about social injustice
Do you only
care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people have no feelings?
How can they ignore their friends?
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no"

here's another song.....

Listen to the words of "Smiling Faces Sometimes"
by the Undisputed Truth......it was a hit for Motown
back in the early 70s.........the words ring
true because of even with a smile and a friendly
gesture from "the enemy", the real enemy is
hidden underneath......
