My Dear Friend
A dear friend
Has decided to have a baby
She's older now,
But never developed marketable skills
But, she's going to have a baby
By herself
My children,
Who are older now too,
Who know my dear friend well
Think that's a shame
The new born will have a difficult life
My dear friend
Who's life has been and continues to be
A constant struggle
Due to limited ability
To cope with
All the rules and requirements
Is going to have a baby
Have we reached a point where having a baby
And staying home to take care of it
Is considered a shame....
I think that's a shame
Has decided to have a baby
She's older now,
But never developed marketable skills
But, she's going to have a baby

My children,
Who are older now too,
Who know my dear friend well
Think that's a shame
The new born will have a difficult life
My dear friend
Who's life has been and continues to be
A constant struggle
Due to limited ability
To cope with
All the rules and requirements
Is going to have a baby
Have we reached a point where having a baby
And staying home to take care of it
Is considered a shame....
I think that's a shame
