They back you up, your mum and dad
They're always there it's true
When you mess up you'll  be glad
The safety net is out for you

And they were backed up in their turn
By parents further down the line
Who once were really just the same
But of a different time

The caring hands are laid on us
A waterfall of willing help
So be there for them, do your best
If you have kids yourself
