Maggie Is Blase

What can one say? 

It's just the way it is today. 

Maggie's just blasé.  

Kids today  

Just want it their way, 

Maggie's just blasé.  

She just can't be concerned  

With things you have learned 

She sees things her special way.  

But you needn't fret 

It's not over yet 

It's just that Maggie's blasé

Only one thing kept the Department of Labor out of it:   

DESSERT PANCAKES!!!

and cleaned the pool
