When they say things we wish they didn’t
And do things we wouldn’t do
Because life taught us consequence
We remember, we were young once too
When they ignore the voice of reason
Like younger folk are apt to do
We remember that the teacher
That taught us will teach our children too
Then just when we think we've graduated
From that hard-knock class of youth
Life's teacher lays beneath our learning
New lessons of love and truth
