Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't you know I'm talking to you?
I said sit down, pay attention
All right then go to your room
Hey now don't you listen
How many times have I got to tell you
You know I could have been something
Shut up, get out of my way
And get out of here
Shut up, Get out of my way
And get out of here
Get up, Can't you do anything?
Don't you know you'll be late for school?
Come on, gather your things now
Try not to make look like a fook
Hurry I'm tired of waiting
Just wait till your father gets home
You should of, You should of
shut up, Get out of my way and get out of here
Shut up, Get out of my way, you don't know nothing at
All
Shut up, Get out of my way and get out of here
Shut up, Shut up get out of my wahy and get out of here
All you do is slow me down
Shut up, Get out of my way and get out of here
Shut up, Get out of my way, you don't know nothing at
All
Shut up, Get out of my way and get out of here
shut up, get out of my way, you don't know nothing at
All
Shut up, Get out of my way and get out of here
Shut up, Shut up get out of my way and get out of here
