How thing have changed,
From when I was a lad...
Something’s are just terrible,
While others aren't bad...
Fashion's gone full circle,
I wear clothes from the past..
You can buy anything online,
Then it arrives to you fast...
Cars are now high tech,
They even park on their own...
While others will drive you,
To the address they are shown...
Computers replaced slate boards,
And the I-Pad is what's cool...
We weren't allowed a calculator,
When I was at school...
Those new mobile phones,
Have us sucked in...
To leave home without one,
Is classed as a sin...
There are those who are stubborn,
And are refusing to bend...
Avoiding the changes,
Until the very last end...
Now our lives are much better,
Than the hard times before...
I welcome the progress,
And can’t wait for more...
