Choose Your Parents Wisely


From Kalamazoo to Timbuktu

Who’s there to feed and

Comfort you?

Your parents.

 

When jeers and sneers

Fall on your ears

Who’s there to wipe away your tears?

Your parents.

 

You flap and flail

And land in jail

Who usually comes to go your bail?

Your parents.

 

They nurse you when you’re sick

They find you when you’re lost

They pick you up when you’re really down

And never ask the cost.

They help you when you’re happy

They help you when you’re sad

They help you when your dreams get dashed

They help you when you’re bad.

But listen up ‘cause here’s the time

When you’ll get your biggest thrill:

They look into your baby blues and say...

They named you in their Will.
