Mobile phone addiction
It's a sad sad day when a mother's attention sways from her
Little daughter swimming
To a social media prison
I kid not these are indeed the last days
I look left and right I can't say I'm amazed
Women giving no attention to the lives they bore
Heads stuck in a mobile phone it's neglect to the core
Can't you spare a moment for your little light
There's something wrong with the picture
It's just not right
As your sons and daughters push out the strokes
Heads bobbing up look at me mummy
No you can't give them your time
Your head lost in a phone
It's social media time
They were once in your tummy
Their little hearts sinking as hope dwindles
In this lost society
What's more important than the child you bore.
