The Choice
The tension is high
As their hormones race
She makes the choice
That we all have to face
She’s the last to decide
That’s what she thinks
So while she decides
She’ll have a drink
Or smoke some dope
And get real high
To cool her nerves
And let her fly
No one told her how to choose
So she’s choosing on her own
Her parents aren’t there and her friends don’t care
So she makes her choice all alone
She decides to chance it
It’s only one time
Nothing can happen to her
She’ll be fine
The chain of events
Started so small
But changed their lives
For once and for all
She’s pregnant now
After only one time
They committed the crime
Now she’ll serve the time
Her mother’s a wreck
Her father’s enraged
The boys 23
The girls underage
Her parents were too busy
So she thought they didn’t care
Let this be a warning
For all parents to be there
She was looking for love
Not a child of her own
Now the guy took off
And she’s all alone
This could have been prevented
With just three words and a little time
So tell your kids you love them
And guide them through their lives
Let them choose
But show them how
And in the end
They’ll make you proud
