They folked you up, your mum and dad,
they did not even notice you,
there was CND, and Jeff Buckley's dad
and a zillion other things to do.
But they were jazzed up in their style,
by cool hep-cats and Beatnik Bill,
who half the time had a stoner's smile
and wished they would invent the pill.
Man hands tomfoolery on to man
-it changes though, despite itself-
enjoy your revolt while you can,
then see your parents in yourself.

succint and cleverly phrased. 1st line 3rd stanza so true and a unique wording, then the wry sting in the tale. Made me laugh.
