Lyrics

The boy's got problems, the boy's got stress
The boys got a .38 hidden in his desk
The boy's got a chickie with four months to go
Grim facts every parent better know
The girl's a heavy teaser wants to do a private show
She got a hundred thousand fantasies she wants the band to know
She likes to brush across my Levis, likes to watch him grow
Grim facts every parent better know
Grim facts every parent better know
Red lights, gang fights
Brewin' in the heat
Cop cars, gay bars
On your precious street
That ain't so neat
Sister's on the street now, lookin' for some Joe
Only got about an hour to pay for her new nose
Gets a hundred for her body, a nickel for her soul
These are grim facts every parent must know
Grim facts every parent must know
Red lights, gang fights
Brewin' in the heat
Cop cars, gay bars
On your precious street
That ain't so neat
And I am feelin' itchy, got a fire down below
I'm a walkin' loaded time bomb, just about to blow
Tries to slide inside my pockets but it's strictly SRO
Grim facts every parent gotta know
Grim facts every parent gotta know
Red lights, gang fights
Brewin' in the heat
Cop cars, gay bars
On your precious street
That ain't so neat
Oh, Grim Facts
