Having A Fan To Keep Me Cool
Technology Has Come Along Way
Everyone has air conditioners today
Portable air that can go anywhere
The comforts of joy in one box
We can go from hot and sweaty to instant cold in seconds
Now that is the gift at our finger tips
The older generation would say they liked it better years ago
A simpler time
Things were tougher but we appreciated so much more
Now the children of today take everything for granted
They get picked up and dropped off where we had to walk
They always had all the conviences to make life easier
The microwave a meal in 300 seconds
A washer and dryer at a push of a button
The heat with turn of a dial
Every t.v. program that exsists on 300 channels or more
Movies that never end
Music in your hand
A mini terlephone that can call around the world
Super grocery stores where nothing is forgotten
All your meats can be bought for the month and stored in a freezer
You can hop on a plane and fly to Aruba
You can drive a car over a hundred miles an hour
Five churches can be found where years ago there was just one
Doctors and prescriptions both seen and filled in the same day
A dollar store where a thousand things are all the same price
Lawnmowers that you don't need to push
Computers that bring information from around the world in a blink of an eye
Every game you ever want to play at a glance
Why oh why isn't every one as happy as me
I have lived through the depression and going without was common practice
We never asked for things and we were never disappointed
Christmas was a time with the family not a living room department store from wall to wall
Holidays were spent at home not working late until the night
When you died there were three days of grieving and consoling
Now you die and can be buried before the sun sets
There are so many changes who knows whats good and what isn't
All I know is I have lived and seen it all
When my time comes you won't have to worry by then I will call
Leaving you with a few words of advice
Love more and worry less
