Children's Story (ft. Martina Topley Bird)
Lyricist:Ricky M L Walters
Once upon a time not long ago When people wore pajamas and lived life slow When laws were stern and justice stood And people were behavin' like they ought ta good
There lived a lil' boy who was misled By another little boy and this is what he said 'Me and you tonight are gonna make some cash Robbin' old folks and makin' tha dash'
They did the job, money came with ease But one couldn't stop, it's like he had a disease He robbed another and another and a sista and her brotha Tried to rob a man who was a D.T. undercover
The cop grabbed his arm, he started acting erratic He said, 'Keep still, boy, no need for static' Punched him in his belly and he gave him a slap But little did he know the little boy was strapped
The kid pulled out a gun, he said, 'Why ya hit me?' The barrel was set straight for the cop's kidney The cop got scared, the kid he starts to figure I'll do years if I pull this trigger
So he cold dashed and ran around the block Cop radio's it to another lady cop He ran by a tree, there he saw this sister A shot for the head, he shot back but he missed her
Looked around good and from expectations So he decided he'd head for the subway stations But she was coming and he made a left He was runnin' top speed till he was outta breath
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Knocked an old man down and swore he killed him Then he made his move to an abandoned building Ran up the stairs up to the top floor Opened up the door there, guess who he saw
Dave the dope fiend shootin' dope Who don't know the meaning of water nor soap He said, 'I need bullets, hurry up, run' The dope fiend brought back a spanking shotgun
He went outside but there was cops all over Then he dipped into a car, a stolen Nova Raced up the block doing 83 Crashed into a tree near a university
Escaped alive though the car was battered Rat-a-tat-tatted and all the cops scattered Ran out of bullets and still had static Grabbed a pregnant lady, got out the automatic Pointed at her head and he said the gun was full o' lead
He told the cops, 'Back off or honey here's dead' Deep in his heart he knew he was wrong So he let the lady go and he starts to run on Sirens sounded, he seemed astounded
Before long the little boy got surrounded He dropped the gun, so went the glory And this is the way I must end this story He was only seventeen, in a madman's dream
The cops shot the kid, I still hear him scream This ain't funny so don't ya dare laugh Just another case 'bout the wrong path Straight and narrow or your soul gets cashed
