For the Old Days I'D Gladly Swap

Frustration has bubbled right over the top Can't count on services today, okay I'll stop Just the mood I'm in Promises are thin Mean nothing anymore, for the old days I'd swap © Jack Ellison 2016

Remember that these are the good old days for the kids of today... We need to make them see... what wise choices used to mean... And how to deal with each other without a phone in their hands... I think they live in a world of wordy dreams...

strip down to your skivvies and go run around...wink at the ladies but don't make a sound...eat ice cream and cake...go skate on the lake...for surely you'll be the talk about town
