If I Was In Charge

from Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEW · host Peter Alsop

    Our 'Song To Chew' today is IF I WAS IN CHARGE.  Have you ever seen someone do something, and you thought to yourself, "I think I could do a little better than that!" Even when we were kids, we could see grown-ups around us messing things up.  We could have handled it!  Except that when we grew-up and we finally had a chance to be in charge, we found out things are a lot more complicated and difficult than we thought they were!  My daughter Willow sings with me on this song.  When we find ourselves in charge, with power and authority over other people, it can 'go to our head'!   As Willow says, "That’s awful!  What’s happening to me!!?  If I was in charge, I might start to change, and start acting like I’m a big deal!"  The idea of 'being in charge' brings up a ton of other questions for us to 'chew on'.  "Do you like to be in charge?" - "Why?" - "Do you think kids should be in charge of things?" - "Why do you think most groups have leaders?" - "Do you think becoming a leader can change someone's behaviors?" - "What kind of things do you want a 'leader' to do?"  The list goes on and on!  Thanks for stopping by!  Please subscribe or follow my 'Songs To Chew’ podcast.  I’ll be back next week with another ‘Song To Chew'.  Bye for now!~ Listen and subscribe to my Songs To Chew podcast = https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/peter-alsop-s-songs-to-chew/id1446179156 ~ CAMPING WITH DADS = https://www.amazon.com/Camping-Dads-Peter-Alsop/dp/B08CS871QW/ref=sr_1_1~ www.FaceBook.com/WeLikePeterAlsop~ www.Youtube.com/peteralsop  = videos~ www.Patreon.com/peteralsop  = support my music & other artistic endeavors~ www.peteralsop.com/music  = CDs & downloads Get full access to Peter Alsop’s Substack at peteralsop.substack.com/subscribe
