B.J. Thomas - Skip A Rope lyrics

[Chorus] Oh, listen to the children while they play, Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say, Skip a rope. Daddy hates mommy, mommy hates dad, Last night you should a heard the fight they had, Gave little sister another bad dream, She woke us all up with a terrible scream. [Chorus] Cheat on your taxes, don't be a fool, Now what was that they said about a Golden Rule? Never mind the rules, just play to win, And hate your neighbor for the shade of his skin. [Chorus] Stab 'em in the back, that's the name of the game, And mommy and daddy are who's to blame. Skip a rope, skip a rope, Just listen to your children while they play, It's really not very funny, what the children say, Skip a rope, skip a rope.
