--- Kid's Allright ---

Down in the cellar, with Dolly and Sue

Smoking fags and feeling cool

Talking to the guy who lives downstairs

and walking around in ridiculous flares

Back in the bushes we find a cat

and beat 'm up with a baseballbat

And Grandma said we'll grow up bad

'n go straight to hell, just like dad

But dont you get your hopes up high

the kid's allright

Down in the cellar with Dolly and Sue

falling in love and feeling blue

flirting with the guy who lives downstairs

and walking around in ridiculous flares

Playing hookey, pretend we're sick

Mamma dont care if it's just a trick

'cause she just wishes she never had

Those kids from hell who drive her mad

But dont you get your hopes up high

the kid's allright

now dont you think the kid's allright
