Mums and Sons
my mother accused me of intentions I didn’t know were there
and punished me accordingly though I was unaware
I think she only understands what females say and do
boys would never think that way but she ain’t gotta clue
Boys don’t do the nasty things that little girls will do
boys confront up front and blunt and do not think it through
when men clash they fight the fight it’s physical abuse
but women will manipulate and spread a lie or two
Boys don’t play the mind games that my mother thought I did
so how can you respect her when she’s clearly quite stupid
when my father got involved he showed me he understands
and that relatability could only come out of a man
if you have never been a boy then you haven’t got a clue,
you might be a mum but being male was never you,
so never think your sons intentions match your point of view
you might accuse him of things boys would never do
And every time you do that he’ll think less of you
