Beyond my control
The kids at home scream when I am on the phone
So loud that I can't even hear what the person is saying On the phone
But I even interrupt the person on the phone so that I can Talk to the kids
To be quiet so that I can talk to the person on the phone
But that doesn't help at all
Because they still scream as loud as they can
And I feel that it is beyond my control
Because I can't even control my kids at all because they won't listen to me at all
