Kids
Take care of your own kids
'Cause they grow up into people just like you
Show up, let them know you
Be around them
So they don't look far from home for love
I can't understand why you wouldn't wanna hang around with an angel
Give your mother rest, she deserves a whole lot better
While you party like it's '89
Though you might be sad
Please remember there's a ball of joy that you brought here
Get mad all you want
I'm just calling like I see it, with these babies frowning all the time
Take care (care), take care, of your own kids (of your own)
'Cause the grow up (into people), into people just like you
Show up, let them know you
Be around them
So they don't look far from home for love
Not another day will I help you do the wrong thing to these angels
I hope you can hear just what I'm saying 'cause we love you
And in fact, I'm really on your side
I don't go along with the in-crowd
It's just filled with boys that don't love you (no way)
You should settle down, learn the easy way
Get off the street with your children crying all the time
Take care of your own kids (of your own)
'Cause they grow up (into people), into people just like you
So show up, let them know you
Be around them
So they don't look far from home for your love
The one you always call (when you hit rock bottom)
Down here, there's nowhere to fall (your problems are for solving)
No more time to act a fool (your little ones are waiting)
I think things could turn out good (if you could make peace with them)
Take care of your own kids
'Cause they grow up into people just like you
Show up (show up), let them know you
Be around them (around them)
So they don't look far from home for your love
Take care of your own kids (yeah-yeah)
'Cause they grow up (grow up), into people just like you
Show up, let them know you
Be around them (be around)
So they don't look far from home for love
Be around to hold them
Be around to tell them (so they don't look far from home)
Be around to love 'em
Even if it's boring
Even if you get lonely (so they don't look far from home)
Treat 'em like a princess, treat 'em like a prince
And a child, a child can do anything with love
Give 'em love, give 'em more love
So they have to search for nothing (so they don't look far from home)
Oh yeah
So they don't look far from home
(So they don't look far from home) for love
'Cause they grow up into people just like you
Show up, let them know you
Be around them
So they don't look far from home for love
I can't understand why you wouldn't wanna hang around with an angel
Give your mother rest, she deserves a whole lot better
While you party like it's '89
Though you might be sad
Please remember there's a ball of joy that you brought here
Get mad all you want
I'm just calling like I see it, with these babies frowning all the time
Take care (care), take care, of your own kids (of your own)
'Cause the grow up (into people), into people just like you
Show up, let them know you
Be around them
So they don't look far from home for love
