Code Yellow

Eeny, meeny, miny, moe
Catch a tiger by his toe
If he hollers, let him go
Eeny, meeny, miny, moe

That’s a code yellow
Take it easy little man, Move it slow, fellow
Just because the light’s green doesn’t mean you should go telling
All the city kids to grow up
Hell no!

Life’s a game of hide-and-seek
Who you are has to go and find who you try to be
The sport is free to play but no one said that time is cheap
So meet me at the corner of easy street and playing for keeps

Tag, you’re it! It’s a competition
No whining and kicking
Don’t believe mе? Pinch your fingers, and then, snap!
You’re in my position

So tiе your laces like a ribbon
‘Cause this childhood’s a gift and if you miss it
No genie is gonna grant your wishes

My mother
My mother said to pick the very best one and that is

You better savor this moment
Taste the flavor and own it
Add some cherries and relish in it
Just so you can cherish and relish in it

You know Mr. Softee, you don’t wanna meet his older brother
So lick that ice cream clean before he turns you to a sucker!

Woah!
That’s a code yellow
Take it easy little man, Move it slow, fellow
Just because the light’s green doesn’t mean you should go telling
All the city kids to grow up
Hell no!
I said, Oh, hello
That’s a code yellow
Take it easy little man, Move it slow, fellow
Just because the light’s green doesn’t mean you should go telling
All the city kids to grow up
Hell no!

What goes up must come down
We learned that on the playground
What goes around, we learned on the merry-go-round
Every trip, every fall, leaves a scar
And if you ‘ain't crying hard, then you learned nothing at all

I don’t mean to beat around the bush
But this has never been a Peter picked a peck of pickled peppers book
Ain't no urban legend that you heard from friends when you were perched
Like birds up on the curb again
It’s a manhunt
An all out war with no weapon but just your stepping foot
And the temperature’s got you sweating bullets and shooting words like a turret would

Running all over the neighborhood
Never bothered about the greater good
That twinkle in your eye should keep shining brighter no matter what age you look
You need to smell the daisies instead of being afraid of which petals you’ll push
And when you approach that light you’ll know which pedal to push

Woah!
That’s a code yellow
Take it easy little man, Move it slow, fellow
Just because the light’s green doesn’t mean you should go telling
All the city kids to grow up
Hell no!
I said, Oh, hello
That’s a code yellow
Take it easy little man, Move it slow, fellow
Just because the light’s green doesn’t mean you should go telling
All the city kids to grow up
Hell no!
