Jack Ellison Poet Narrative

Loud Rock 'N Roll Music

At one time loud rock and roll music

Would drive me up the wall

Guess I must have really mellowed out

It no longer upsets me at all

Either that or I'm losing my hearing

That could be the reason

Whichever the case it's sure a relief

To finally get rid of those demons

My son Scottie is into loud music

Middle aged but still hasn't lost it

So loud it blasts you out of your chair

Your knickers get bunched up and knotted

Each to his own that's the way it should be

No one should complain or criticize

We're all here for a very short while

So the secret is to compromise

At one time loud rock and roll music

Would drive me up the wall

Guess I must have really mellowed out

It no longer upsets me at all
