Now we're getting nasty.
Everybody's talking about the ki ds
The kids got funky soul and groove emot ion
But if you don't give the kids the chance to use it
They're always morethan l ikely to abus e it
Everybody's talking about the ki ds
It's taking time for you to realis e
Now hunger turns to an ger in our eye s
I say the revolution will be televis ed
Yes it will, Gil
Everybody's talking about the ki ds
The kids needs space to get their heads in plac e
And every day this wo rld we have to fac e
I just can't seem to find my proper plac e.

Kids get down
Stormy weather
Fift een years of royal pleasure
C#7-9
Kids get down underground
Ever ybody dance to the funky sound.
Everybody's talking about the ki ds
It won't be long before we get our own
And every kid can tr uly feel at hom e
I told ya you should give the dog a bon e
Everybody's talking about sch ool
But I get more pleasure b reakin' all the rul es
Cos lesson one begi ns with 'Life Is Cru el'
Well I guess I'm just an educated foo l
Everybody's talking about the ki ds
Mom and Dad make efforts to excus e it
Government officials will confus e it
Members of the bench will try to prov e it
You're going down sucker.
