"Do I quarrel with my parents?!"

Do I quarrel with mum and dad?

This question makes me feel sad.

How dare I be this reckless!

With my loving parents, that's ruthless!

What our quarrel will be about?

Why shall we scream and shout?

When we believe that discussion is the solution

And it's the best way to make a real evolution

How can I quarrel with a great loving mother?

Or with a very understanding father?

They are my real best friend

They are my peaceful land

So why should I quarrel with them? (*2)

When they only deserve being grateful to them

But sometimes a misunderstanding might happen

And the respect and love between us won't be shaken

I owe my parents a bunch of flowers

And begging them for their forgiveness for hours

So talk to your mum and dad

Don't lose your temper by getting mad

And consider them as a friend

A friend you should never offend.
