Parents Just Don't Understand* (Student Version)
the italicized portion originates from the song written by Pete Harris, Will Smith, Jeffrey Townes
By J. I.
You know parents are the same no matter the time or place
They dont understand that us kids are gonna make some mistakes
So to you other kids all across the land
there's no need to argue, parents just don't understand...
I was smoking and my pops walked in
He was invading my privacy, aw man...
He said, "why you smoking, do your chores".
I thought, "I might as well", a younging be bored
I did the dishes and went outside
I was hanging with friends, but to me they the guys
We in the whip, my pops calling
I hit decline because we were balling
We doing some plays trying to get some money
My stomach start growling, that means I'm hungry
Got to go home and get some food, this is understood
I call pops back and ask him if he good
He doesn't want to talk, So I head back to the house
When I get home pops starts spazzing, like we be wilding out
He said, "don't just hop in a whip, y'all can't drive"
I said, "be quiet, we do this all the time"
I really didn't say that, it was in my head
Pops had enough and told me to go to bed
