The Lyrics
You… skipping out of school
You know the rules
About getting high
And you… go clean your room
Before it turns into a pig’s stye
Give… your parents hell
A rebel’s yell will quickly outcry
And feast… upon their fears
The ones they dread, the ones that won’t die
Do you ever take advice?
When they scold you, is it nice?
If you look into their eyes
You’ll see they love you
And you… who’s raisin' cain
Who causes pain in his fam’ly’s home life
Could you… have hurt them anymore?
You maybe sore but must you sow strife?
Give… your parents hell
It’s really swell
Of you to comply
And taunt… them in your teens
They make you sick, they have hurt your pride
Do you ever take advice?
When they scold you, is it nice?
If you look into their eyes
You’ll see they love you
You know the rules
About getting high
And you… go clean your room
Before it turns into a pig’s stye
Give… your parents hell
A rebel’s yell will quickly outcry
And feast… upon their fears
The ones they dread, the ones that won’t die
Do you ever take advice?
When they scold you, is it nice?
If you look into their eyes
You’ll see they love you
And you… who’s raisin' cain
Who causes pain in his fam’ly’s home life
Could you… have hurt them anymore?
You maybe sore but must you sow strife?
Give… your parents hell
It’s really swell
Of you to comply
And taunt… them in your teens
They make you sick, they have hurt your pride
Do you ever take advice?
When they scold you, is it nice?
If you look into their eyes
You’ll see they love you

Very true. Through all of the scolding and hell raising, you see that they love you. Great job.
=)
funny counterpoint to the OS
I like
I liked it, altho' it seemed a little incongruous - first seeming to be gleeful about bugging one's parents and then seeming to put a guilt trip on. Maybe that was the whole point - heh heh. I particularly liked the 'feast upon their fears' line.
555.
