Adulting

Be young while you can my dad used to say, Don't grow up too fast see life the kid way, Try to catch Santa and then the Tooth Fairy, Watch for the boogie man he's scary, When you're grown up those things won't get done , You won't run and play or have as much fun, Instead you will work from dusk until dawn, Then on your day off you'll mow your lawn, As an adult you can pick your own bedtime, Then return to your job to earn that next dime, Over and over you will get a routine, Maybe you'll get bored and need a new scene, Bills are due every month of the year, Plenty of time to choose your career, For now be the youngin' you are, Never forget to wish upon a star, Always be honest always put out your best, Say please and thank you by God you are blessed, Pray every night before you go to bed, And never be angry when you lay down your head.
