Eleven Kidz Bop albums have been released to date. Each album features different pop music songs, played with music similar to the original, and with the "Kidz Bop Kids" singing instead of the original artist. Albums are typically released within a few months of each other and thus the songs included tend to be the hit songs of the current time, including such songs such as "Float On" (Modest Mouse), "This Love" (Maroon 5), and "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" (Green Day).
Although the albums are marketed as being "sanitized" versions of popular songs for children, many of the songs featured on the Kidz Bop albums still contain explicit sexual material, such as Rob Thomas's "Lonely No More," which some people consider inappropriate for younger audiences. Other featured songs, such as "Boulevard of Broken Dreams", contain profanity. Although the albums censor the actual word from the song, the context of the profanity remains. They also covered Green Day's hit "Wake Me Up When September Ends", which is about death.
The Kidz Bop video for their cover of Avril Lavigne's "Sk8r Boi", for instance, features the song being sung by a pre-teen girl in heavy make-up, fishnet stockings, and a Sex Pistols t-shirt.
It Will Rain
Kidz Bop Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leave some morphine at my door
Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have
We don't have it anymore
There's no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor, oh
To keep you by my side
And keep you from walking out the door
Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday, it will rain
Rain, rain
I'll never be your mother's favorite
Your daddy can't even look me in the eye
Ooh if I was in their shoes, I'd be doing the same thing
Saying there goes my little girl
Walking with that troublesome guy
But they're just afraid of something they can't understand
Ooh well little darling watch me change their minds
Yea for you I'll try, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make it right
Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday, it will rain
Rain, rain
Ooh don't you say
Goodbye, don't you say, goodbye
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
If that'll make it right
Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear ski-yies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the sa-a-ame if you walk away
Everyday, it will rain
Rain

If you ever leave me, baby
If you decide to leave me, my love
Leave some morphine at my door
Leave some painkillers at my doorstep to lessen my emotional pain
Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
It would take a significant amount of medication to help me realize the reality of the situation - that we don't have what we used to have anymore
To realize what we used to have
It would take a significant amount of medication to help me understand the value of what we had
We don't have it anymore
But now we don't have that love anymore
There's no religion that could save me
Having strong faith or believing in any religion cannot save me from the pain of losing you
No matter how long my knees are on the floor, oh
No matter how long I pray, my grief will not be healed
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm making
Please remember all the things I'm doing to keep us together
To keep you by my side
To make sure you'll stay with me
And keep you from walking out the door
And prevent you from leaving me
Cause there'll be no sunlight
My life will be dark and gloomy
If I lose you, baby
If you leave me
There'll be no clear skies
I'll have no more hope or optimism
Just like the clouds
And, in the same way that clouds reflect a stormy sky, my eyes will reflect my emotional pain
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
My eyes will be filled with tears if you decide to leave me
Everyday, it will rain
Every day will be a struggle, bringing me only tears and pain
I'll never be your mother's favorite
Your mother will never like me
Your daddy can't even look me in the eye
Your father can't accept me as his daughter's chosen partner
Ooh if I was in their shoes, I'd be doing the same thing
If I were them, I'd feel the same way about me
Saying there goes my little girl
They would be saying that I'm taking their little girl away from them
Walking with that troublesome guy
They would say that I'm with a bad or untrustworthy guy
But they're just afraid of something they can't understand
Their fear and negative feelings about me are coming from not being able to understand or accept our situation and relationship
Ooh well little darling watch me change their minds
I will convince them otherwise
Yea for you I'll try, I'll try, I'll try, I'll try
I'll make as many attempts as it takes, for the sake of our relationship
I'll pick up these broken pieces 'til I'm bleeding
I'll do all that I can to fix what has been broken until I'm figuratively, or even literally, hurting myself in the process
If that'll make it right
If that's what it takes to make everything right once again
Ooh don't you say
Don't you dare say
Goodbye, don't you say, goodbye
Don't even consider leaving me
Just like the clouds
And again, like the clouds, my eyes will reflect my sadness and pain
My eyes will do the sa-a-ame if you walk away
Tears will fill my eyes should you decide to leave me
Everyday, it will rain
Every single day, I'll be in a dark and stormy state of mind
Rain
My tears will flow
Rain
Like the rain, my sadness will continually fall
