Al Stone - The Kids lyrics

[Intro] Ha! Now we're getting nasty! [Verse 1] Everybody's talking 'bout the kids The kids got funky soul and groove emotion But if you don't give the kids the chance to use it Well, they're always more than likely to abuse it Everybody's talking 'bout the kids It's taking time for you to realize Now hunger turns to anger in our eyes I say the revolution will be televised Yes, it will Everybody's talking 'bout the kids The kids needs space to get their heads in place And every day this world we have to face Well, I just can't seem to find my proper place Cause it's like this... [Chorus] Kids get down, stormy weather Fifteen years of royal pleasure (watch me now) Kids get down, underground Everybody dance to the funky sound (watch me now) Because the kids got funky soul [Verse 2] Everybody's talking 'bout the kids It won't be long before we get our own And every kid can truly feel at home I told ya you should give the dog a bone (give the dog a bone) Everybody's talking about school But I get more pleasure breakin' all the rules Cause lesson one begins with 'Life is cruel' Well, I guess I'm just an educated fool Everybody's talking 'bout the kids Mom and dad make efforts to excuse it Government officials will confuse it Members of the bench will try to prove it You goin' down, s**a! Everybody's talking 'bout the kids now Everybody's talking 'bout the kids now Everybody's talking 'bout the, everybody's talking about the Everybody's talking 'bout the kids now Everybody's talking, hear the people talking about the kids The kid's got funky soul, come on now The kid's got funky soul You know the kids got funky soul I said, the kids got funky soul The kids got funky soul [Chorus] Kids get down, stormy weather Fifteen years of royal pleasure (watch me now) Watch me Kids get down, celebrate Now we're going to kick the thing we hate (watch me now) Cause the kids got funky soul [Instrumental break] Ah, ha, ha, ha... ha! You know the kids got funky soul, yeah! Ah, ha, ha, ha... ha, ha I said the kids got funky soul, yeah Everybody's talking about the kids now Everybody's talking about the kids now Everybody's talking about the, everybody's talking about the Everybody's talking about the, everybody's talking about the Everybody's talking about the, everybody's talking about the kids now Hey! Keep on talkin', yeah And keep on movin', yeah Gotta keep on groovin', yeah Gotta keep on talkin', yeah Keep on Keep on movin', yeah [Verse 3] Everybody's talking 'bout high But kids get high to satisfy For reaching out to touch the sky Is all I can identify And you know why [Chorus] Kids get down, stormy weather Fifteen years of royal pleasure (watch me now) Kids get down, celebrate Now we're gonna kick the thing we hate (watch me now) Watch me! Kids get down, pressurized To live the life that you devised (watch me now) Kids get down, celebrate Life's too short to complicate (watch me now) Cause the kids got funky soul
