If we have wisdom, knowledge and education;
Who’s to say we can’t teach the younger generation?
Sometimes you feel lonely, sad, and life seems bad;
It doesn’t matter what they say just be glad.
The world of temptations, is only money-making;
Pushing here, and pushing there,
Just say no, they won’t care.
You can have pleasure, fun, excitement too;
Sky T.V, D.V.D. Video and the T.V,
If that’s not enough get yourself out;
Go and join the local Scouts,
And if that’s not enough, go to Thorpe Park,
Roller coasters ride, what a delight!
Slush puppies, candyfloss, toffee apples too;
Ooh! What fun, and its cheaper too.
What’s the pleasure, in the pain;
In the long run, it’s no gain.
GCSE’S, HND’S and DEGREE’S;
Education, and your imagination,
What a great combination!
If you think your cool, smoking a spliff or two;
What could be better, then the PS2,
Or the latest mobile phone, with the Internet too.
It’s still your choice at the end of the day;
Have common sense, don’t give way,
TO THE TEMPTATIONS OF TODAY!
