> A child's hilarious and insightful response to Adam Mansbach's bestselling book, Go the F\*\*k to Sleep

> _Father, oh father, why are you so mad?  
> I’m just a little kid—I’m not trying to be bad_

 

_> Yet every night, you cuss under your breath  
> It’s almost as if you think that I’m deaf_

 

_> Yes, I get it, your life has so changed  
> But that’s no reason to start acting deranged_

 

> _1 out of 3 kids doesn’t live with a dad  
> Now I know why—some fathers are pathetic and sad_

> _I know you welcomed me into your life  
> After carefree coitus with your career-minded wife_

 

_> Now you’re both exhausted and seem only to argue  
> Is it my fault? Really, what should I do?_

 

_> Here’s an idea: Relax and have a beer  
> And let me solve our little problem by being the man here_

 

_> Did you know that I’ll fall asleep 40 percent faster  
> If you create a bedtime routine that I can master?_

 

> _Didn’t think so, and there’s another benefit I’ll cite  
> With a routine, I’ll sleep an extra hour each night_

> _And if I shut my eyes nightly for 10 hours of peace  
> Research shows I’m much less likely to wind up obese_

 

_> Experts also say you should read to me 30 minutes a pop  
> Yet after just one little book you can’t wait to stop_

 

_> If it bores you that much, I’ll give you a tip  
> Just make it up, the words you can skip_

 

> _This all boosts my vocabulary and word knowledge  
> Which someday may help me score a scholarship to college_

> _Now let’s talk about when I want to color and swing  
> Why is it you can’t stop all that goddamned texting?_

 

_> The brainiacs say if you pay attention to me  
> I’m likely to be less violent when I hit puberty_

 

_> Yet you don’t quite grasp the concept of play, I infer  
> Maybe I should tell Mom what’s on your web browser_

 

> _If you want me to stop crying, then let’s lose the ’tude  
> And go outside—studies say exercise improves my mood_

> _Please straighten up, Dad, and get your head out of your ass  
> My young and innocent years just aren’t going to last_

 

_> I can’t take care of myself, so I must look to you  
> Now man up and sack up—you know what to do_

 

_> Give me a kiss and bid me “Good night!”  
> And think about how you can make this thing right_

 

> _’Cuz if forever you’re going to be chock-full of gloom  
> You’d might as well just get the f\*\*k out of my room_

That’s all fine and good, but try sticking to it when you are drunk all the time.

I love and hate the poem.

Love it because I feel like the good guy, but hate it because it’s the truth of so many families.

LOL this review on amazon:

_"To this small book I can relate.  
For many nights do parents wait  
Until angelic tots are sleeping,  
When after endless bouts of weeping,  
Or running wild and restless rolling  
When no amount of Mom’s cajoling,  
Or bribes, or threats, warm milk or juice  
Or even smacks on the caboose,  
Can get those f#cking eyes shut tight  
So Mom and Dad can play at night. "_
