Put your house in order<br />
By Jacqueline Wetherill<br />
How can you tell me how to raise my pickney,<br />
When every fete out, hello, you gone and spree?<br />
Put your house in order.<br />
You and your daughter wear the same clothes;<br />
As you bend down, everything is being exposed!<br />
Put your house in order.<br />
Mother and young daughter at the same fete;<br />
Daughter asking mother if she’s ready to go home yet.<br />
Put your house in order<br />
From the expletives, to drinking rum and drinking beer,<br />
I guess you think you’re young, and believe that you are the same age.<br />
Put your house in order.<br />
Well, train her to be promiscuous too,<br />
And every child will have a different father, then blame who?<br />
Put your house in order.<br />
You might be looking good for your age,<br />
And posting your sexy pictures on your Face book page.<br />
Put your house in order.<br />
I will enjoy my life by you calling me “Old Granny”;<br />
I will stay at home and be the best to my pickney.<br />
One thing I will never do, is to jump up and whine with my kids,<br />
Hang out and drink liquor, just to hear them say “I have a cool mother”!<br />
Mothers, be careful the way you display to your daughters;<br />
What might look cool to them now will be sour grapes later.<br />
Respect yourselves, value your daughters, and put your houses in order.
