Cavorters

Started at the bottom now we're here, still at the bottom, looking up people dancing around and singing and eating and drinking and cavorting, the cavorters. No one brought us up, no one helped and no one asked. We thought that if we worked together that would be enough, hard work and sweat and elbow grease and determination. But you can work and work and never get a word in edgewise, speak your mind and never get ahead. And up there, over there beyond the darkness, you can see that it exists. But you're here, you were, and are, and will be.
