The Reason I Stopped Growing
I was playing with my favourite toy
One night as I lay in bed
Grandpa caught me and called me a naughty boy
and this is what he said .
Darren ,I don't mean to be unkind
if you don't stop. You'll go deaf and blind
then You're gonna stop growing
and you'll lose your mind .
Sorry grandpa , I must have misunderstood
I thought it was you who said I should
You said everything in moderation does us good
That's why I've been pulling my pud .
I confess mistakes have been made
I now wear jam jar bottom glasses
and a real strong hearing aid.
