| I Didn't Drink And Drive, Mum. |
 |
I went to a party, mum, I remembered what you said, You told me not to drink, mum, So I took a soda instead, I felt really proud inside, Just like you said I would, I didn't drink and drive, mum Even though the others said I should. I know I did the right thing, mum, I knew you were always right, Now the party's finally ended, mum, As everyone drives out of sight. As got into my car, mum, I knew I'd get home in one piece, Because of the way you raised me, So responsible and sweet. I started to drive away mum, But as I pulled out into the road, The other car didn't see me, mum, It hit me like a load! As I lie here on the pavement, mum, I hear the policeman say, The other guys were drunk, mum, And I'm the one to pay. I'm lying here dying, mum, I wish you'd get here soon, How could this happen to me, mum? My life has been burst like a balloon! There is blood all around me, mum, And most of it is mine, I hear the medics say, I'll die in a short time. I just wanted to tell you, mum, I swear I didn't drink, It was the other's mum, The other's didn't think! The policemen think They were at the same party as I, The only difference is, They drank, and I will die! Why do people drink, mum? It can ruin your life. I'm feeling sharp pains now, Like a knife. The guy who hit me is walking,mum And I don't think it's fair, I'm lying here dying, mum, And all I can do is stare. Tell my brother not to cry, Tell daddy to be brave And when I go to heaven, Put 'Daddy's Girl' on my grave. Someone should have told them, Not to drink and drive, If only they had told them, I'd still be alive. My breath is getting shorter, mum, And I'm getting scared, Please don't cry for me, mum, When I need you, you were always there. I have one last question mum, Before I say goodbye, I didn't drink and drive, mum, Why am I the one to die? Author unknown |
