Responsibilities (Vinyl Version)

Our kids who've grown and flown the nest

Now only phone us to request

More cash on loan, their tone depressed

We're shown their debts. We've known. We've guessed

They own mere pence. They've blown the rest

'We're stony-broke!' they drone, distressed

They moan. We groan, but re-invest

In those who've grown and flown the nest

Our blood-and-bone, our own, our best
