Thing we didn't like as kids.
Seems to come back upon you when you're grown.
It could be the music that your parents listen too.
It could be a certain type of food.

It just might be the advice they gave.
Who hadn't came across something that adults use to say?

We all have heard.
You're gonna thank me for this one day.
Sometimes, we think we our parents.
When we say the things we say.

Things we couldn't accept as a child.
We do when we are grown.
That good manners and respect.
Will take you a long, long way.

Or to avoid certain friends.
Because they won't amount to a thing.

We all have came across some friends
Who has ended up on the wrong end of the law?
And then accept the guidance given to us.
By saying a pray that we had someone that cared.

It's a heritary.
And in a way very ordinary.
Because we were around them to hear this.
If we honestly admit it.
We even done impression of them saying these things.

Mine your business.
Close mouth don't get feed.
You better eat what the others are eating.
Or you don't eat at all.

Money don't grow trees.
What are these teachers thinking planning all the trips.

One of these days you're goning to make me lose my mind.
Oh, you're going to church.
No hethens living within my house.
You dad needs to go.
You better be where you say you're going to be.

Oh, yes.
Things we didn't like as kids.
Gets repeated hen we are grown.

Maybe, we should have listen all along.
