The Kid
Silently present, welcome to stay
Youngest of all, fortunate today
It is great being the kid
Expectations are small
Cover your mouth with the figurative lid
Listen, learn, and you’ll be the best of them all.
They invited you in, but you must earn your stay
Times passes quickly, so seize every day
Soak up like a sponge all that you hear
Take the fateful plunge and be efficient this year
For you are only the kid once
In a few years you will be old
So volunteer for everything
No matter how it’s sold.
What you learn now, you must apply later
If you perform well, you will be in good favor
For the people you’re with, they were once kids too
Mentored by the best, the next up is you
But for now, run for some coffee
That will be two quid
There is nothing better than being the kid.
