Childhood Expression (little children should be seen not heard, etc)
You do not understand the shame
Attached to such a simple crime -
I always get the total blame
For what I've done, time after time.
Just to express myself is wrong,
Whether out loud or in a rhyme -
They will not tolerate my song,
They will not let me play their game.
