• I miss the days when an "adult drink" I liked was tea,
    Not vodka.

    I miss the the days when short skirts came to your knee,
    Not to your thigh.

    I miss the days when lollipops were in people's mouth,
    Not cigarettes.

    I miss the days when the drugs we took were cough medicine,
    Not pot or LSD.

    I miss the days when sexuality,
    Was a word none of us knew.

    I miss the days when the only thing we cheated on,
    Was a mere test.

    I miss the days when broken crayons,
    Was the greatest drama.

    I miss the days when scars were from climbing a tree,
    Not cutting.

    I miss the days when tic-taks,
    Were the only "pills" we popped.

    I miss the days when toys,
    Meant something totally innocent.

    I miss the days when the greatest pain,
    Was a skinned knee or stubbed toe.

    I miss the days when "dope",
    Was a stupid, silly person.

    I miss the days,
    When I was innocent.
