BABY-BOY


 

 

Daddy’s business has been handed to you on a platter

You never had any ambition, but that doesn’t matter

Everything is set out for you to reign

Only your signature is needed time and again

The world is your oyster

You’ve traveled the globe

You’ve even got a valet to hand you your robe!

You’ve been through ‘countless’ relationships

Yet none of them were ‘right’

I understand perfectly (sob, sob)

Like you would know a good thing if it was in plain sight!!!

You sleep at dawn

Hard work makes you yawn

You’ve got a car that’s swell

You’ve even got a *Hayabusa…..well…

Good for you! It will take you faster….to hell!

Grow up baby-boy

Very soon you’ll be bored of the ‘toys’

When life will question you, what for it will you show?

You’ll have nothing to talk about; each day will be a chore

Wrinkles will take over, the twinkle of your eye

All your hair might just bid you goodbye

Reality will one day confront you

Ever wondered that day what will you do?

* The Hayabusa is the worlds fastest motorcycle/sportsbike.
