My mother was a snob

She trained me to change my natural vowels

she trained me

she was a bit of a snob.

She wanted me to sound posh

My mother was a liar

she told so many lies

so many lies she told.

My mother often betrayed me

Betrayed me many times

Dropped me in boiling water

with her many lies.

I got the blame.

Because she was a coward.

I don’t want to be like her.

I’m not like her at all.

Not like her at all.

I still miss her

but I’m not like her at all.
