Quite Quit Quiet

 

Mom got real mad at me

Said " Son now this is it!

I’ve told you once and twice now

So you’d just better quit"

 

I got in trouble once again

Sis thought it was a riot

I’m 10 years old and I’m a boy

How can I be quiet?

 

My voice is loud - I slam the doors

I can’t seem to get it right

"You better tone it down!"

Mom says

I do ... but just not quite

 

"Quiet Down!" my Mommy says

"Quit making all that noise!"

I guess she wants me real quiet

Not playing with my toys

 

I got a drum set for my birthday

Dad went out to buy it

Now Mom is mad at me again

I just can’t quite get quiet

           I QUIT!
