The Family Fire


My mom walked in and my dad walked out,

I held my face and cried out loud.

I like to talk,

they like to mock.

As I say hi, they give a sigh.

When I passed by I yelled, got scared

they weren't there to say they cared.

I had to call the firemen.

They cooled them down, 

Oh, and also the house.
