Mama Raised…

Mama tried to raise a lady

But instead she raised a Hun.

The kind of little brute that squishes bugs for fun.

The one who didn’t learn a thing except to curse and spit.

One that never says “oh dear” but instead responds with “well, shit.”

Mama raised a rough one

But she says she doesn’t mind.

Knowing that I’m still her little baby on the inside.

Mama tried to raise a lady

But instead she rasied a Hun.

She says she doesn’t mind

But I’m glad I’m her only one.
