Lyrics
She comes to me one day
She comes to me and she goes
You know Christopher
You know Christopher, I don't mean to overstep my bounds here
And I'm thinking, here we go
Shes goes:
I just heard this, I just heard on thinking
You've either watched or read something on tv again, right?
She goes:
I just heard if you want to give your kids some meaningful dicipline
I mean meaningful dicipline
I heard you should never ever ever smack them on the behind
What so ever, you shouldn't smack 'em
She goes:
No but I've heard you should do
You should just, give, them some good positive reinforcement
And I'm thinking
Positive reinforcement really
We had positive reinforcement when I was a kid
It went little something like
If I messed up, I was positive
My dad would was coming home from work
To kick me in my butt, right
Yeah
Yeah
And that was the day before cellphones
Or instagratification and things like that, right
My mom couldn't interrupt my dad at work then
I'd to page the whole plan
And he was a millwright
If they woke him up from his nap
Someone was getting it when he got home work
So anyways my mom just did the mom threat thing
And you'll wait until your father gets home all that stuff
But right
So I would keep it up
But I knew my mom got mad
Because she quit talking to me
So I knew I was in trouble that day, right
Yeah, right so I knew that my dad got home from work
At 4:10 everyday
At 4:09 I went somewherea and I'd hid in my house
Yeah, it was about 10 or 15 minutes after
My dad had got home from work
And no one had come to find me yet
Yeah, little I know my mom never told my dad
That I was in trouble that day
She was just enjoying 10 or 15 minutes of peace and quiet
People that have kids or had kids, is there anyway in your house
That you can hide, that your kids can't find you in half a second?
No where, I can't find my kids in my house
I can come in. Yell at them from at the top of my lungs
I can't find them, don't know where they are
So you know what happens now though
I think they can't hear me
But the time I think ther're at sleep
And I pop a soda
Suddenly they all ears
Dad, dad what do you got, right
So I can't find my kids in my house
But you know now where I go in my house
If I wanna find my kids where I go
I just go to the bathroom and know
Sooner does my touch that toilet seat
And they find me
Clap at that, thank you
You guys know how it's, right
