I reckon whoever wrote the musical that the song 'Kids' is featured in probably had kids in mind when he wrote:

Kids!

I don't know what's wrong with these kids today!

Kids!

Who can understand anything they say?

Kids!

They are so ridiculous and immature!

I don't see why anybody wants 'em!

Just you wait and see

Kids!

Kids! They are just impossible to control!

(Soon you'll be old enough to be)

Kids! With their awful clothes and their rock an' roll!

(Another teenage delinquent)

Why can't they be like you were,

Perfect in every way?

What's the matter with kids to--

Kids!

What the devil's wrong with these kids today?

Kids!

Who could guess the they would turn out that way!

Why can't they be like we were,

Perfect in every way?

What's the matter with kids?

What's the matter with kids?

What's the matter with kids today?

I generally find them annoying when I'm fast asleep and they jump on top of you - that is really really annoying. I'm a deep sleeper and probably have had a few beers the night before, could really do with an additional 3 hours kip and to be woken up you feel - ok the day has started and its going to be a long time before you get any more kip. Apart from that first in the morning thing, kids are (mostly) good fun.


Oh and the first 6 months after the first one is born - thats takes quite a bit of coming to terms with - your life as you know it - is over. It gets better tho.

I think NOFX put it best in the song, What's the matter whith kids today?


There's something wrong with the kids in my neighborhood

They always listen to their moms

They disregard civil disobedience

They'd rather do what they're told

They don't drink, or fuck, or fight

They sit home, and read, expand their minds


There's something wrong with the kinds in my cul de sac

Their always goin to church

They dress well and they're

Speaking articulate

They show eachother respect

They're never late, don't smoke

or break rules

They eat right, study hard

They like school


There's something wrong with the kids in my neighborhood


Or perhaps they were just being cantankerous old fuckers.

    • Hope you all had a happy Christmas & good New Year  Here are your Gardening Tips  for February . Their not too long, but they need doing if you are to have a good garden this year  1. Pruning.  Before the birds need a nest prune your hedges especially the deciduous ones . Important to still prune Roses . Cut back Rose bushes hard to a bud & creating a rounded plant . Prune your trees before the sap rises especially Buddleja Hydrangeas hardy Fuschias Lavatera Bay Leylandii You can cut back Spring flowering tree’s after they have flowered later in Spring  Prune climbing plants like Virginia creeper & Ivy very hard . Remember they will grow back prolifically  You can prune Wisteria twice a year & February is one of them . Cut back the whips (smaller branches) to 3 buds before the main stems . You can prune a few of the thicker stems to give the plant shape & form. Give it a feed if you want it to flower  Cut back any grasses so they can grow in Spring  Prune Jasmines & winter flowering Jasmines. They will reward you with beautiful smelling flowers during Spring & Summer    2 If it ever gets dry again mow your lawn at top height of your mower. Repair patches & trim all borders with a half moon spade . It’s a good time of year to lay new lawns levelling the ground adding sand feed & topsoil    Power wash your patios paths & wooden structures & furniture. You can then give them an appropriate treatment when they have dried out  That’s it for now. I told you it wasn’t too long, Do these if you can, but if you want someone to carry it out for you, I recommend any of the we’ll recommended gardeners on the forum including myself & my colleagues  Please give me a call on :  07759862191. Well done if you managed to read this. Nigel
