I Disagree With Your Dad

My mother told me once, my mother told me twice,
You think that I would listen after she told me the second time,
Nothing against my father, but she described him to a T,
She warned me about the decisions I made and how he would act towards me,
She said you and I are very much alike, this will drive him crazy,
We fought about the things you and I believe, so expect an argument in the making,
Put your big girl panties on, and get ready for a rumble,
Because when you disagree with him, your words he'll try to fumble,
Pride will cause him to shut down your words, and not hear a logical explanation,
But please love him anyway, just take a mini vacation,
By the time you've thought things over, and come back for a visit,
He won't even remember the point of it all, he'll forget the disagreement,
This is how we operated for many years on end,
I would make him a sandwich and soon he would forget,
So I'm preparing for your future, please take your mother's advice,
Make sure you prepare him his favorite meal right after you get in a fight! LOL.:)
