Silly Girls and Boys


Silly Girls and Boys

What happened to the times,
When girls chased boys
And guns and knives,
Were plastic toys?

What happened to the times,
When being innocent,
Was the only way
To really feel alive?

What happened to all these children?
Generations change.
They use to lark and play,
But now they wish their youth away.

What happened to the times,
When you didn’t want to grow up,
Because you wanted to carry on
Being a child, never growing up.

Now to the times,
When men chase lone women,
And guns and knives,
Dominate all their lives.

Now to the times,
When innocent isn’t any fun,
And by your teens,
You’re alone and have a son.

Now to the times,
When they walk their kids to school,
And [they] hope
They don’t break the same rules.

Now,
Time to realise,
That they were the girls and boys
That they once despised.
