Out of Sync
Am I out of sync, am I somewhat behind,
Feeling puzzled when jokes, I can't find.
Did I do wrong in following my parents' advice,
In discipline and politeness, did I pay the price?
I wonder if I'm not in tune with the times,
Or if my upbringing's made me miss life's chimes.
But maybe in my values, there's something I've gained,
In a changing world, my roots remain unchained.
