Lyrics

WORLD ON THE STREETS

Verse
I don't mean to be rude
But you got it all wrong
There are better ways to pay your dues
Than living on the streets
I'd rather be shrewd
In the boardroom
Where presidents meet
Than learning on the streets

Chorus
I DON'T WANNA LEARN ABOUT THE WORLD ON THE STREETS
BECAUSE IT MIGHT GET ME KILLED
I DON'T WANNA GROW UP ON THE STREETS
I WANNA SEE MY DESTINY FULFILLED

Verse
The streets will chew you up
And spit you out
And just when you've had enough
You'll realize your youth's been robbed
It's not good to be hard-up
Easy game.
Too easy to become knocked-up
I don't wanna get caught up.


CHORUS


Bridge
Take it from me
Be a kid as long as you can
Take it from me
Don't take it to the streets.

CHORUS
