Helicopter parents
Bred generation Z to be
Fearful of most everything
Unconsciously
Helicopter parents
Lack basic bravery
Onto unsuspecting offspring they load
Their anxieties
Helicopter parents
The media's to blame
In their rush to ratings they pushed
Kidnapping claims
Helicopter parents
Were arrested if they didn't
Provide a home environment that was
Safety sufficient
The breakfast table
Bolstered the fable
Abduction from strangers
An everpresent danger
Who's bright idea was it
To breed the fear of it
Missing kids
On milk cartons
All of their descendants have
Panic in their veins
At the slightest provocation they feel
Emotional pain
These kids are adolescents at
University
And even Halloween costumes cause them
Anxiety
They're on anti-depressants
Cos the pressure is immense
Free speech needs to be constrained for
Their self-defence
Cos of their suppressants they need
Safety at all costs
They're asking to be treated in the
Way that they grew up
The breakfast table
Bolstered the fable
Abduction from strangers
An everpresent danger
Who's bright idea - was it
To breed the fear - of it
With missing kids
On milk cartons
