The mother of one of my friends would shout at him from downstairs, .“What are you DOOO-iinngg, Roy?”.“Nuhhh- Fingg,” he’d shout back in a sing-song reply. And of course he was doing something, and would stop immediately..Something I always heard on “Here’s Geraldine”:.
Here’s a piece of good advice,Think it over once or twice.Be kind to your parentsThough they don’t deserve itRemember they’re grown upsA difficult stage of life.They’re apt to be nervousAnd overexcitedConfused from theDaily storm and strife.Just keep in mindThough it seems hard, I know -Most parents once were children long ago.Incredible!.So treat them with patienceAnd sweet understandingIn spite of the foolish things they do.Some day you may wake upAnd find you’re a parent too.Songwriter, Rome, HaroldSung by Pete Seeger
