*I Remember When

I remember when life was good

I had milk and cookies after school

Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy

Were my parents friends

Christmas and Easter were magical times

And my parents were actually cool, or at least knew something

Being different was ok; no one was the judge

So why did things have to change?

Santa comes no more

My parents are so old-fashioned

And different? Well, it matters!

Stress has replaced the magic

And homework took my cookies away!
