All through ma life I wanted to grow up
just so I can meet adulthood and say "wassup?"
but now that i finally am twenty one,
I feel that my childhood was way more fun!
Waking up Monday, Eating heavy to overcome the blues,
not dieting and having a little juice
Getting on the, bus singing all the way,
not stuck in traffic without knowing what to say!
Waking up Tuesday, feeling a little better,
not thinking of my chick or what to get her
Wearing the uniform my mom washed and pressed,
not worrying about how good I dressed!
Waking up Wednesday, feeling my dad's care,
Not thinking its day 3 I'm halfway there
Looking into my mom's eyes as she kisses me goodbye,
not through my window at the landscape so dry!
Waking up Thursday, with so much energy in me pent,
not worrying about how the hell I'm gonna pay my rent
missing the bus and riding with mom to school
not caring about who thinks I am cool!
Waking up Friday, forget it again so scream for ma towel,
not running out half naked just to answer my doorbell
having the lunch my mom packed with love and care,
not munching on chips I bought with change I had to spare!
Waking up Saturday. late after my dad calls me a slob,
not worrying about recession or losing my job
Watching the tube for hours together with dad,
not stuck in an empty house which drives me mad!
Waking up Sunday, switching on the TV,
not worrying about how to update my CV
Going outside and playing in the sun,
not just waiting to get paid on day one!
But really... Being an adult ain't bad, I can vote,
I don't even have to bug dad to buy a new coat
I can smoke, I can drink,
I can do anything that I think!
But sometimes when I remember the past,
I feel I just grew up too fast
Reminiscing about the great times that we had...
I dedicate this one to ma DAD!!!
