Skip a Rope

[Chorus]
Oh, listen to the children while they play
Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope

[Verse 1]
Daddy hates mommy, mommy hates dad
Last night you should a heard the fight they had
Gave little sister another bad dream
She woke us all up with a terrible scream

[Chorus]
Oh, listen to the children while they play
Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope

[Verse 2]
Cheat on your taxes, don't be a fool
Now what was that they said about a Golden Rule?
Never mind the rules, just play to win
And hate your nеighbor for the shade of his skin

[Chorus]
Oh, listen to thе children while they play
Now ain't it kinda funny what the children say
Skip a rope

[Bridge]
Stab 'em in the back, that's the name of the game
And mommy and daddy are who's to blame

[Verse 3]
Skip a rope, skip a rope
Just listen to your children while they play
It's really not very funny, what the children say
Skip a rope, skip a rope
