Show DELINQUINT? By Linda Rameriz We read in the paper and hear on the air Of killing and stealing and crime everywhere. We sign, anq ye say as we notice the trend "Are they all rebels, have they no end?11 But can we be sure, it's their fault alone? That maybe a part of it isn't our own? Are 'we the guilty who place in their way Too many things to lead them astray? Too much money to spend, too much idle time Too many movies of passion and crime,' Too many children encouraged to roam, By too many parents who won't stay at home. Kids don't make the movies. They don't write the books. They don't paint gay pictures of gangsters and crooks. They don't make the liquor. They don't run the bars. They don't make the laws. They don't make the cars. They don't peddle the drugs thai addle the brain. That's all done by older folk greedy for gain. By the law of the blameless The Savior made known, "Who is there among us to cast the first stone?" For in so many cases it's sad, but it's true The title 'Delinquent" fits older folk too. |
