When I was young 💕

Whiling away those golden hours when my best friends came to call

When we used to love playing kerby on our road with a bouncy ball

I was totally well grounded and contented with my all

And back in those days when the planet was carefree

When the world news waffled on the television, that never worried me

As a matter of fact things around about me went on merrily

When I was young with a life of normality

Alas nowadays such a lot seems to be wrong

Our wonderful world is chaotic, mumbling a melancholy song

Why can’t our foreign nations just get along ?
