There's a fat chance of them trying
To ban the impact of advertising
On our young
They're cosied up to junk providers
In the pockets of sugar strategisers
Who have brung
This epidemic of child obesity
By appealing to the treachery
Of lifestyle
They are all exercising less
And put under increasing stress
So they pile
On the calories, on the weight
Diabetes, cancer, the ultimate fate
As they grow
But government have never cared
About how the common folk fared
Even if they know

Thoughts of a Dad who is parent first, second and third whilst everything else comes after...

Firework
Like a spluttering firework
You explode into my face
I say stop - And you go beserk
Like a spluttering firework
You leap from my lap; Arms fly and jerk
In all directions, kindling the space
Like a spluttering firework
You explode into my face
You explode into my face
I say stop - And you go beserk
Like a spluttering firework
You leap from my lap; Arms fly and jerk
In all directions, kindling the space
Like a spluttering firework
You explode into my face
