they tried to follow every rule

Blue eyed twins went to school
Tried to follow every rule
their mother ran away that day
Even though they were good, she could not stay

The lesson for them lasted forever
You can be kind, smart, excited and clever
But if your mother wants to run away
You cannot make her stay even one more day
