Parents have an easy job,
...to raise their children right,
Grandpas have a gruelling task,
...and try with all their might,
To play the games, to miss bedtimes;
...all the toys that must be boughten,
Yep, having a grandpa's job is tough,
...to spoil the grandkids rotten.

(but I give it my best shot)
