The first amendment
Made for speech
Is being affected
By over reach
When every word
Can scare or alarm
Then what can be said
With out causing harm
You must pick the crowd
The ones who will hear
Because the nervous get jumpy
And have a keen ear
They want to protect
While forgetting we're free
To say our own mind
So others can see
When we are young we're reckless
We don't parse every word
So what's on our mind
Is just what you heard
As we grow we know tact
And choose what we say
It's found over time
That this is the best way
But let a child learn
As he speaks we can teach
Before we go overboard
And they become out of reach
