My daughter has moved from pop to coffee
Coffee with caffeine is now her cup of tea
And my wife has tried to persuade the teenager
To opt for the drink that’s decaffeinated
Cup with less addictive substance, the much preferred
Only to meet with a defeat
From one whose taste buds is now well whet!
My daughter has moved from hugs to religion
Religion with self-righteousness, now her lesson
And my wife has tried to convince the teacher
To teach that creed with less of conceit
Corridor of compassion to those outside the campsite
Only to meet with a defeat
From one whose prejudices are strong and straight!
