Now were getting nasty.
Everybodys talking about the kids
The kids got funky soul and groove emotion
But if you dont give the kids the chance to use it
Theyre always morethan likely to abuse it
Everybodys talking about the kids
Its taking time for you to realise
Now hunger turns to anger in our eyes
I say the revolution will be televised
Yes it will, Gil
Everybodys talking about the kids
The kids needs space to get their heads in place
And every day this world we have to face
I just cant seem to find my proper place.
Kids get down
Stormy weather
Fifteen years of royal pleasure
Kids get down underground
Everybody dance to the funky sound.
Everybodys talking about the kids
It wont 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
Everybodys talking about school
But I get more pleasure breakin all the rules
Cos lesson one begins with "Life Is Cruel"
Well I guess Im just an educated fool
Everybodys talking about the kids
Mom and Dad make efforts to excuse it
Government officials will confuse it
Members of the bench will try to prove it
Youre going down sucker.
Everybodys talking about the kids now
Everybodys talking about the kids now
The kids got funky soul.
Kids get down
Stormy weather
Fifteen years of royal pleasure
Kids get down, celebrate
Now were going to kick the thing we hate
Everybodys talking about high
But kids get high to satisfy
For reaching out to touch the sky
Is all I can identify, and you know why.
Kids get down
Stormy weather
Fifteen years of royal pleasure
Kids get down, celebrate
Now were gonna kick the thing we hate
Kids get down, pressurized
To live the life that you devised
Kids get, celebrate
Lifes too short to complicate.
