My children tell me "what I should've done,"

And thus I know what the cool kids are doing.

I know what to say next time

Someone tells me to pull my socks up,

And I'm not wearing any!

My parents used to tell me what I should've done, too,

And that is how I knew 

What the cool kids were NOT doing!

But, alas, I have listened to the voices of too many critics,

And have wound up at Ham-a-lot

While aiming for Camelot.

I have one arrow left in my quiver!

I'll shoot it myself at my own design,

And hit or miss, receive blame or credit,

For to err is human, to forgive, divine!
