The Kids Want Coke

and are not accepting substitutes

By BrenPublished 3 years ago • 1 min read

mum wants a rum

auntie Lil is on the wine

grandads on the home made gin

dad just needs more time

the kids want coke

the kids want coke

they know we’re not broke

neither of us smoke

i’m not having a stroke

it’s not a fuckin joke

the kids want coke

the kids want coke

they don’t want water

they don’t want milk

they don’t want fuckin pepsi

they don’t want water

they don’t want milk

they wanna fuckin glass of coke

they wont listen to me bloke

don’t want sugar free or diet

or silly vanilla flavours of any kind

in a bottle or a can preferably

but any coke is good

the kids won’t mind

the kids want coke

the kids want coke
