Children on the streets using guns and knives Taking drugs and each other's lives Killing each other using knives and forks And calling each other names like dork
There's people on the street getting diseases from monkeys Yeah that's what I said, they are getting diseases from monkeys Why's this happening, please, who's been touching these monkeys? Leave these poor sick monkeys alone They're sick, they've got problems enough as it is
A man is lying on the street, some punk has chopped off his head And I'm the only one who stops to see if he's dead, aaoohhh Turns out he's dead
That's why I'm singing, Aaaaoooh what is wrong with the world today? What's wrong with the world today, *mumbles* never said nothing's wrong with it Uooo, what is wrong with the world today? Think about it, think about it, think, think about it
Good cops get framed and put into a can And all the money that we're making is going to the maaan
What man, whose the man, whens a man a man, why's it so hard to be a man Am I a man? Yes, technically, yes…
Oohh, come on, sont zootka they’re turning kids into slaves They're turning kids into slaves just to make cheaper sneakers But what's the real cost, 'cause the sneakers don't seem that much cheaper Why are we still paying so much for sneakers when you got little kid slaves making them What are your overheads?
Well, at the end of your life, you are lucky if you die Sometimes I wonder why I would even try Why try I saw a man lying on the street half dead He had knives and forks sticking out of his leg He said, Ahh ahh ahh ahhhhhhhhwww Can somebody get the knife and fork out of my leg, please Ooh, could somebody please remove these cutleries from my knees Yeah yeeeahhh This is where we break it down This is where we break it down We'll break it down What are they doing, they're breaking it down What do they do, and now they're keeping it funky Just having a funky jam and then we're going to drop the beat And then we'll bring it back *wails* Uuuup Wah wah wah waaah!
Then we'll take it low Fading out, fading out We're talking about the issues, but we're keeping it funky We're fading out, we're just fading out Why they're getting quiet, they're just fading out *monkey noises* Stop touching that monkey
