In my younger days

The world has changed in so many ways 
It's nothing like the good old days 

There was only 3 channels on the TV and we boiled a kettle to make the tea

Lots of fresh air playing outdoor in the sun 
Football  hopscotch just having fun

Having a Picnic in the park  getting home 
Before it gets dark

Jam sandwiches  just a quick snack to eat 
No named trainers just daps on your feet 

Clouring pencils chalking on the ground 
Children laughing what a wonderful sound

Things have changed that's no doubt to talk to our friend we had to go out

But that's all changed now in the process of time

Don't you miss your younger days I know I miss mine.
