Don T Come Crying To Me

DON’T COME CRYING TO ME Why the hell not? Yes, I’m talking to you ! Where else would you rather your child went crying to? To a dodgy-looking school friend known As a probable midnite toker on his own? To the street gang anxious to expand Membership of their lonely losers band ? To old cousin Zabqo, always willing, always free To sit a child on a too-friendly knee? To an empty park bench all night through, Afraid to come home to you? No, this saying is one of the stupidest imaginable Warnings to offer a child in trouble. Hey, kid, if things go wrong, come crying to me - We’ll be able to fix it, you’ll see.
