AND NO ONE’S GONNA KEEP ME DOWN

OKAY, IT’S CLEAR I’M THE TOP OF THIS CLASS

THIS ONE HERE? HE’S RAREIN’ TO FAIL!
HE’LL ROB A 7-ELEVEN AND GO STRAIGHT TO JAIL
MAYBE STEAL HUBCAPS, MAYBE STEAL BOOZE?
EXPRESSING HIMSELF WITH HIS HOMEMADE TATTOOS!
SOCCER MOM, MINIVAN
FOUR LITTLE BRATS, NO STEADY MAN
DO WE REALLY NEED ANOTHER ORGAN DONOR?

Maybe that was a little harsh. Love you!

Oh?
POKEMON, SPIDERMAN
THIS KID DOESN'T HAVE AN ATTENTION SPAN
AND WHAT’S HE GONNA DO, SOLVE A RUBIK’S CUBE?

How long's he got if we feed him through a tube?
