Backside

discipline is love...respect went to the great participation trophy in the sky...

Backside

A little more incentive shown in my time,
I was just looking for freedom to rule!
Back when phone calls were simply a dime,
When disobeying was being a fool!

Never was I a procrastinator!
I was just seeking a little fun!
We need a new trash eliminator,
Besides, have eternity to get it done.

That answer, my mother wasn't pleased!
She said she had another plan in mind.
   She grabbed hold of my ear and squeezed!
      That is when my moving feet;  I did find!

If;  like happy dolphins;  you want to play?
But your mother for you has some chores.
   You better let wisdom carry the day!
      So your backside doesn't display any sores!
