My Child

You never listen to what we say,
We tell you off day after day.
You have good mind if you use it,
But all you do is to abuse it.

You think that we treat you rather cruel,
But you will keep acting like a fool.
Your stock answer is that "I forgot".
Games toys and puzzles you've got the lot.

It's not that we don't love you,
Just we don't like what you do.
When will you listen to what we say,
So that we can all have a quiet day.

What we tell you is not to hurt you,
Why you don't listen we have not a clue.
If you have problems we are there to ask,
With Maths and science or any other task.

We will not live forever that is for sure,
But for your defiance we wish we had a cure.
So listen my child to what we have to say,
You will have to look after yourself one day.
