Trouble At School These Days
trouble at school in the fifties and sixties
meant more trouble at home – big trouble
trouble at school in 2021 means
Big Mama’s coming up to throw her weights around.
Yes, those weights!
She will be mad and mean.
Yell, scream, take out her guns if she must.
Some mamas are more aggressive than others.
Daddies are the same though, staying out of it
Watching the TV, leaving it up to the women.
