You Had Her Out Too Late

Young man, you took my daughter out on a date. However, I told you don’t keep her out too late. She didn’t come home until the early morning light. That was crude of you and not a bit right. You are the epitome of an uncouth fool. My daughter was too tired to make it into school. Bad news followed that was a lot more than enough: You got a little fresh with her and a bit too rough. Don’t you know this town enforces a curfew? Staying out late was a very foolish thing to do. Never ever let me see you back around here. This place is off limits to you! Do I make myself clear?
