When Your Child Is A “Musician”

To make a student concert go

There are some things you need to know.

Just like a wedding, what you hear

May cause you to shed a tear.

They’ll play a tune you know by heart,

Beloved favorite, devoid of art

And then a piece that’s written so

The talentless might play a show.

This will go on for several hours

And won’t be cancelled due to showers

To gird your loins and plug your ears;

You’ll have one for the next ten years.
