Story behind the song
Act 3 The parents meet at one of their houses the morning of the day after the children ran away. They have searched all night for the children and are tired and upset that they have not found them. They regret their actions the day before which caused the children to run away. They wish the children could understand how hard it is to be parents. They sing the seventh song of the musical.
Lyrics
[Ms. Miller, It's not easy bein' parents Jamie's mom] It's not easy at all We've got to have all the answers... Every time they call [Mrs. Sanders, It's not easy bein' parents Kelly's mom] It takes all of our time We've got to have so much patience... To keep them all in line Bridge: [Mr.&Mrs. Jones, What ever happened to all those things... Charley's parents] We said we'd never do? [Ms. Miller] ( I wish I knew) [Mr.&Mrs. Jones] Our parents did them and now we find... We must do them too [ Ms. Miller] (What can we do?) [Mr.&Mrs. Jones] It's so hard to break away... And try for something new [ Ms. Miller] (What can we do?) [Mr.&Mrs. Jones] It's so hard to find the time... To really think it through [Mr. Sanders, It's not easy bein' parents Kelly's father] It's not easy at all We can't be there to help them... Every time they fall [Mrs. Sanders] It's not easy bein' parents It's hard to let go They grow up so quickly- Before we even know Bridge: [Mr.&Mrs. Sanders] What ever happened to all those things... We said that we would do? [Ms. Miller] (I wish I knew) [Mr.&Mrs. Sanders] The time has come and the time has gone- Our time is nearly through [ Ms. Miller] (What can we do?) [Mr.&Mrs. Sanders] It's so hard to face the truth- A child we never knew [ Ms. Miller] (What can we do?) [Mr.&Mrs. Sanders] It's so hard to realize... We are children too [Ms. Miller] It's not easy bein' parents Oh no... it's not easy [Mr.&Mrs. Jones] It's not easy bein' parents It's not easy at all [Ms. Miller] It's not easy bein' parents Oh no... it's not easy [Mr.&Mrs. Sanders] It's not easy bein' parents
