Parents Just Don't Understand - DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince[00:00:00]
You know parents are the same no matter time nor place[00:00:11]
They don't understand that us kids are gonna make some mistakes[00:00:13]
So to you all the kids all across the land[00:00:16]
There's no need to argue parents just don't understand[00:00:18]
I remember one year[00:00:32]
My mom took me school shopping[00:00:34]
It was me my brother my mom oh my pop and my little sister[00:00:35]
All hopped in the car[00:00:39]
We headed downtown to the Gallery Mall[00:00:40]
MY mom started bugging with the clothes she chose[00:00:44]
I didn't say nothing at first[00:00:46]
I just turned up my nose[00:00:47]
She said "What's wrong This shirt cost $20"[00:00:49]
I said "Mom this shirt is plaid with a butterfly collar "[00:00:52]
The next half hour was the same old thing[00:00:54]
My mother buying me clothes from 1963[00:00:57]
And then she lost her mind and did the ultimate[00:01:00]
I asked her for Adidas and she bought me Zips [00:01:03]
I said "Mom what are you doing you're ruining my rep"[00:01:05]
She said "You're only sixteen you don't have a rep yet"[00:01:08]
I said "Mom let's put these clothes back please"[00:01:11]
She said "no you go to school to learn not for a fashion show"[00:01:13]
I said "This isn't Sha Na Na come on Mom I'm not Bowzer[00:01:16]
Mom please put back the bell-bottom Brady Bunch trousers[00:01:19]
But if you don't want to I can live with that but[00:01:21]
You gotta put back the double-knit reversible slacks"[00:01:24]
She wasn't moved - everything stayed the same[00:01:27]
Inevitably the first day of school came[00:01:30]
I thought I could get over I tried to play sick[00:01:33]
But my mom said "No no way uh-uh forget it"[00:01:35]
There was nothing I could do I tried to relax[00:01:38]
I got dressed up in those ancient artifacts[00:01:41]
And when I walked into school it was just as I thought[00:01:43]
The kids were cracking up laughing at the clothes Mom bought[00:01:46]
And those who weren't laughing still had a ball[00:01:49]
Because they were pointing and whispering[00:01:52]
As I walked down the hall[00:01:53]
I got home and told my Mom how my day went[00:01:54]
She said "If they were laughing you don't need them [00:01:56]
Cause they're not good friends"[00:01:59]
For the next six hours I tried to explain to my Mom[00:02:00]
That I was gonna have to go through this about 200 more times[00:02:02]
So to you all the kids all across the land[00:02:05]
There's no need to argue[00:02:08]
Parents just don't understand[00:02:09]
Oh-kay here's the situation[00:02:22]
My parents went away on a week's vacation and[00:02:25]
They left the keys to the brand new Porsche[00:02:27]
Would they mind [00:02:30]
Umm well of course not[00:02:31]
I'll just take it for a little spin[00:02:33]
And maybe show it off to a couple of friends[00:02:35]
I'll just cruise it around the neighborhood[00:02:38]
Well maybe I shouldn't[00:02:41]
Yeah of course I should[00:02:42]
Pay attention here's the thick of the plot[00:02:44]
I pulled up to the corner at the end of my block[00:02:46]
That's when I saw this beautiful girlie girl walking[00:02:49]
I picked up my car phone to perpetrate like I was talking[00:02:51]
You should've seen this girl's bodily dimensions[00:02:55]
I honked my horn just to get her attention[00:02:57]
She said "Was that for me "[00:03:00]
I said "Yeah"[00:03:01]
She said "Why "[00:03:02]
I said "Come on and take a ride with a helluva guy"[00:03:02]
She said "How do I know you're not sick [00:03:06]
You could be some deranged lunatic"[00:03:08]
I said "C'mon toots my name is the Prince[00:03:11]
Beside would a lunatic have a Porsche like this "[00:03:13]
She agreed and we were on our way[00:03:16]
She was looking very good and so was I I must say - word[00:03:19]
We hit McDonald's pulled into the drive[00:03:22]
We ordered two Big Macs and two large fries with Cokes[00:03:24]
She kicked her shoes off onto the floor[00:03:27]
She said "Drive fast speed turns me on"[00:03:30]
She put her hand on my knee I put my foot on the gas[00:03:33]
We almost got whiplash I took off so fast[00:03:35]
The sun roof was open the music was high[00:03:38]
And this girl's hand was steadily moving up my thigh[00:03:41]
She had opened up three buttons on her shirt so far[00:03:44]
I guess that's why I didn't notice that police car[00:03:46]
We're doing ninety in my Mom's new Porsche[00:03:49]
And to make this long story short - short[00:03:51]
When the cop pulled me over I was scared as hell[00:03:54]
I said "I don't have a license but I drive very well officer"[00:03:57]
I almost had a heart attack that day[00:04:00]
Come to find out the girl was a twelve-year-old runaway[00:04:02]
I was arrested the car was impounded[00:04:06]
There was no way for me to avoid being grounded[00:04:08]
My parents had to come off from vacation to get me[00:04:11]
I'd rather be in jail than to have my father hit me[00:04:14]
My parents walked in[00:04:16]
I got my grip I said "Ah Mom Dad how was your trip "[00:04:17]
They didn't speak - I said "I want to plead my case"[00:04:22]
But my father just shoved me in the car by my face[00:04:25]
That was a hard ride home I don't know how I survived[00:04:27]
They took turns - one would beat me while the other was driving[00:04:30]
I can't believe it I just made a mistake[00:04:33]
Well parents are the same no matter time nor place[00:04:35]
So to you all the kids all across the land[00:04:38]
Take it from me parents just don't understand[00:04:41]
