Grandparents? Who needs them ? 

My Grandpa tells me silly jokes.. well.. I don't think he's funny

(But he sometimes helps me out with extra pocket money.)

Grandma fusses all the time and tells me what to wear

(But when I'm feeling down a bit it's nice to know she's there.)

Grandpa sometimes whistles and it's awful when he sings

(But it's very nice to know he's good at mending things.)

Grandma sometimes tells me off and gives me her advice

(But we go on pic-a-nics and they are rather nice).

Grandpa lets me surf the net but censors where I play

(I suppose I'm fairly lucky that I never have to pay.)

Grandma says I make a mess and has a little moan

(But she has her good points too.. she bought my mobile phone.)

Grandpa makes up stupid poems, Like this you're reading now

(I know I could write better ones?if only I knew how)

Grandpa says he knows it all?.he really thinks he's cool

(But he comes in handy with the work I get from school)

They take me away for holidays.. hotels and other places

(But I feel I have to go?.. to help them with their cases)

Grandma says we have to go to her for Christmas dinner

( I reckon if we didn't I would be a great deal thinner)

Grandpa says I must work hard before it is too late

( I wonder..do I want to be a dole collector's mate ?)

So Grandparents who needs them ?

( But I'll keep mine 'cos you see..If I did get rid of them..

 Then who'd look after me ?)
