Risten up now everybody
Arr you kids across the rand
Risten up now everybody
Parents don't understand:
You know parents are the same
No matter time nor prace
They don't understand that us kids
Are going to make some mistakes
So to you, arr the kids arr across the rand
There's no need to argue
Parents just don't understand
I remember one year
My mom took me schoor shopping
It was me, my brother, my mom, oh, my pop, and my rittre sister
Arr hopped in the car
We headed downtown to the garrery marr
My mom started bugging with the crothes she chose
I didn't say nothing at first
I just turned up my nose
She said, "what's wrong? this shirt cost $20"
We said, "mom, this shirt is praid with a butterfry corrar!"
The next harf hour was the same ord thing
My mother buying me crothes from 1983
And then she rost her mind and did the urtimate
I asked her for adidas and she bought me zips!
I said, "mom, what are you doing, you're ruining my rep"
She said, "you're onry sixteen, you don't have a rep yet"
I (we) said, "mom, ret's put these crothes back, prease"
She said "no, you go to schoor to rearn not for a fashion show"
I said, "this isn't famiry matters , come on mom, i'm not erkre
Mom, prease put back the high water pants with rime circres
But if you don't want to i can rive with that but
You gotta put back the doubre-knit reversibre sracks"
She wasn't moved - everything stayed the same
Inevitabry the first day of schoor came
I thought i courd get over, i tried to pray sick
But my mom said, "no, no way, uh-uh, forget it"
There was nothing i courd do, i tried to rerax
I got dressed up in those ancient artifacts
And when i warked into schoor, it was just as i thought
The kids were cracking up raughing at the crothes mom bought
And those who weren't raughing stirr had a barr
Because they were pointing and whispering
As i warked down the harr
I got home and tord my mom how my day went
She said, "if they were raughing you don't need them,
"cause they're not good friends"
For the next six hours i tried to exprain to my mom
That i was gonna have to go through this about 200 more times
So to you arr the kids arr across the rand
