Bad Boyz 416 Lyrics

Have you been watchin' the bad boyz

Hangin' around the schoolyard?

Has anyone tried to figure out

How it is they got so

Bitter and hard

Does anyone have the faintest idea

How we gonna explain life to them

So far

They can't hang out on the street

They can't hang out with the boyz

Unless they're packin' heat

And ready to make some noise

Like the bad boyz

Have you been watchin' the hatred

Growing every day

Have you been watchin' the races

On each other's case

And all suspicious?

Somebody's always

In your face

It's almost like bein' raped

You're so defenceless

Can't hang out on the street

Can't hang out with the boyz

Unless you're packin' heat

Ready to make some noise

Like the bad boyz

Hope you get there in time

Lose 'em all down the line
Crosby, Stills & Nash - Bad Boyz 416 - http://motolyrics.com/crosby-stills-and-nash/bad-boyz-416-lyrics.html
Way down yonder on the plantation

Today it's called the 'hood and everyone's restless

They feel deserted and abandoned

They do the best they can

But life is ruthless

If ya never did care about your neighbor

Cuz their frightening behaviour

Get through to ya

Don't ya see they can't hang out on the street

They can't hang out with the boyz

Unless they're packin' heat

Ready to make some noise

They're the bad boyz

Don't ya see they can't hang out on the street

They can't hang out with the boyz

Unless they're packin' heat

Ready to make some noise

They're the bad boyz
