Grandpa Used to Love Me
Navigating Life's Deceptions: Willem DaJones' Reflections
Lyrics
My grandma used to love me but she died
Grandma used to love the speaker, but she passed away.
When I was a young lad
The speaker recalls this when they were young.
Grandpa said he loved me but he lied
Grandpa claimed to love the speaker, but it was insincere or untrue.
I was very young - who knew
The speaker was too young to understand the deception.
At school they teach us always to be smart
School teaches the importance of being intelligent, but actual wisdom is lacking.
But no one really has a clue
Despite education, people generally lack true understanding.
My father used to listen to the news
The father listened to the news but didn't believe it was truthful.
But told me none of it was true
The father didn't share the news' content with the speaker.
My mother told me never to be rude
The mother advised against being impolite and emphasized eating meals.
And always always eat my food
The mother stressed the importance of consistently eating.
Start to work and then don't lose your job
The speaker is advised to start working and maintain employment stability.
And watch that nasty tone
Emphasizes the importance of being polite and watchful of attitude.
Find some love and don´t forget to vote
Encouragement to seek love and participate in voting while combating loneliness with a smile.
And smile when you feel alone
Encouragement to maintain a positive demeanor despite feeling lonely.
