Back in my day

I remember when young

Life being so much fun

Not a lot of money

But lots of family love

My mum and dad worked hard

To ensure our life was good

Even though money was sparse

They went so far to prove

Than money can’t buy happiness

That’s down to you and me

To entertain ourselves

And discover brand new things.

No phones or consoles

Barely much on TV

We spent our time in parks and streets

Riding bikes and playing footy.

So don’t think than fun need be supplied

It’s yours to be discovered

Out in the big wide world

Don’t be electronically smothered.
