Being An Adult **This is the follow up to my earlier Opuss, 'Being A Boy'. Hope you like it)*** So now I'm older and more mature But no longer innocent, no longer pure Long gone are the joys that simple things brought All replaced by many dilemmas and thoughts no more dreams of being Spiderman! Just happy with being a healthy man Can't buy his toys or even his bubble bath Got to be mature or suffer the wife's wrath! How easy were the trips to the seaside? Just grabbed your kite and jumped on a ride Now you have to get time off work Put in the request to some fat jerk Then wait until kids are off school Wife wants to stay somewhere with a pool Pack enough bags like you're going on a year long quest By the time you get there you're so damn stressed But your'e no longer a boy who can scream when annoyed But a man who bites his tongue to remain married and employed! Just as I feel I'm about to melt I finally realise what my parents had felt
