YOUNG AND PROUD OLD AND GREY

The bells are ringing children are playing
Passing exams and no one failing
The pressure is on the teachers not the students
When they fail me they are failing themselves
Their jobs are on the line so they worry more about their health
Maids and nurses are feeling sad
Loved ones are dying all over this place
Jack and Jill never went up the hill
They fetched me a new car
That's how it is, old men are sleeping on the streets
Wondering how it all fell apart
Their future was gloom from the very start
Drugs are upun us and there's nothing we can do
We're just praying that our chrildren are not taking them
Really it is a waiting game making sure they are safe for 16 years
When that period is done they are free to do whatever they like
But with the Lord among us all, let us hope for the path which is right
Now we are in university planning to get married
But is there enough money to raise a family?
Wrong decisions lead to the wrong company
Hopefully we can get along in harmony
Now we are 60, home, wife and kids
But unfortunately for some people there on the streets
You think it is cool and your ego is getting bigger
But in a blink of an eye "BANG" things go sour
