Queen for a day,
Win a lottery,
What we teach our kids
Is a mockery.

Video games
Hip Hop crap
Disguised as music
(Try humming rap)

Material things
"Cribs" owned by trash
Glorious cars
From rapper's cash.

Nip and Tuck
That's all you need
A little "coke"
A puff of weed.

A fancy car
Luxury mansion
Brand new breasts
To see attraction.

Instead of wheels
(That gleem with spinners)
Perhaps some college
Would produce more winners?

What are we teaching
To our teens?
There's better ways
To self-esteem.

Hear, hear...oh I wish our youth would!

My credit's not Bad...I'm just protecting myself from identity theft!

all I can say is "I agree"...

there are no consequences anymore and look at all the video games etc.. so much is violent today...they are now saying that teens don't have the ability to distinguish the repercussions of their actions...

There is always an excuse today for  poor choices in behavior.
