Politics on the Playground
View ArtistLyrics
Remember at 6 years old Hanging off them monkey bar poles You know you got to watch your back And the only way to survive is friends, make 'em with who'er ya can And hope them big guys leave you alone But that only last so long, they come for you they come for everyone Ya know them big guys from the playground Can't let 'em run your life When you're just 14 years old First day of high school And you don't know where to sit Oh 'cause where you do will it decide your fate? For the next four years Or for the rest of your life, and you wanna choose right No! Ya I learned politics from a playground Ya I learned politics from a beatdown at 9 years old And over and over again Ya I learned more from that playground When I learned how to take a beatdown, and over again I won't roll over again Just who are your friends? We mapped our enemies out on The playground like the country side of '49 Surrounded school like a city People's war on the bullies show 'em no pity Mao Tse-tung twisters on the bus, build the united front Well I learned politics on a playground I learned politics from a beatdown at 9 years old And over and over again I learned more from that playground When I learned how to take a beatdown, at 9 years old And over and over again And school bosses don't do a damn thing You need to bring the people with ya Or they'll beat you, remember that Learned united front at 9 years old From a battle on the bus Learned politics from a play ground Ya I learned politics from a beat down It's war out there I said It's war No! Well I learned politics from a playground Ya I learned politics from a beatdown at 9 years old And over and over again Ya I learned united front on a playground When I learned how to take a beatdown at 9 years old I won't roll over again
