No One Listens
Hooray, proud grandparents we have come to be.
A brand new baby bounces on your knee.
There are grandparents who don’t really care
But the ones who do should always be there.
As the baby grows and the parents divorce
The Gran can be used as an evil force,
It’s so unfair when they are sent away
To them the children have a lot to say
We love you Gran what have we done
When we were together we always had fun
Mum says we can’t see you and sends back your gifts
Our love for you will never shift.
You were there for us when we needed to talk
You listened with interest when we went for a walk
Life is so dark without you to care
It hurts so much without you there
No one listens when we cry at night
It can start a row and end up in a fight
There must come a time when they do listen to us
And we’re together again without all the fuss
For the children and Grandparents life can’t be much tougher
Their feelings are ignored - why should they suffer?
Please someone out there hear their plea
Help Grandparents back to where they should be.
