Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Oh listen to the children while they play
Now a'int it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope
Daddy hates mommy
Mommy hates dad
Last night you shoulda heard the fight they had
Gave little sister another bad dream
She woke us all up with her terrible screams
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Oh listen to the children while they play
Now a'int it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope
Cheat on your taxes, don't be a fool
Now what was that you said about a golden rule?
Nevermind the rules, just play to win
And hate your neighbor for the shade of his skin
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Oh listen to the children while they play
Now a'int it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope
Stab 'em in the back
That's the name of the game
And mommy and daddy are who's to blame
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Oh listen to the children while the children play
It's really not very funny what the children say
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
Skip a rope
