Momma say, she can't control us
And Daddy don't care
He's got to feed us everyday
He's workin' hard for the clothes that we wear
He's always workin'
They gotta leave us at home alone
Or with a sitter on the telephone
We're makin' trouble it's plain to see
There's no love lost for the good gone bad
Neighborhood kids at play
We'll be in the streets tomorrow
With everything we learn today
We're the neighborhood kids
I'm a neighborhood kid
With a juvenile smile we get in trouble
An evident crime
We didn't mean it
Went a bit far
We only meant to have a good time
Can you believe it?
Who's gonna blame us?
We're on the run
You're always sayin' how we're all too young
You never gave us the time of day
There's no love lost for the bad boys
Neighborhood kids at play
We'll be in the streets tomorrow
With everything we learn today
We're the neighborhood kids from the back yard
Neighborhood kids at play
We'll be in the streets tomorrow
With everything we learn today
We're the neighborhood kids from the back yard
Don't you know we nee love too?
We'll be in the streets tomorrow
With everything we learn today
