[00:00:00] Parents Just Don’t Understand - Party Band Kings

[00:00:10] You know parents are the same

[00:00:12] No matter time nor place

[00:00:13] They don't understand that us kids

[00:00:14] Are going to make some mistakes

[00:00:16] So to you all the kids all across the land

[00:00:19] There's no need to argue

[00:00:20] Parents just don't understand

[00:00:32] I remember one year

[00:00:33] My mom took me school shopping

[00:00:35] It was me my brother my mom oh my pop

[00:00:38] And my little sister

[00:00:39] All hopped in the car

[00:00:41] We headed downtown to the Gallery Mall

[00:00:43] My mom started bugging with the clothes she chose

[00:00:46] I didn't say nothing at first

[00:00:47] I just turned up my nose

[00:00:49] She said "What's wrong This shirt cost $20"

[00:00:51] I said

[00:00:52] "Mom this shirt is plaid

[00:00:53] With a butterfly collar "

[00:00:54] The next half hour was the same old thing

[00:00:57] My mother buying me clothes from 1963

[00:00:59] And then she lost her mind and did the ultimate

[00:01:02] I asked her for Adidas and she bought me Zips

[00:01:05] I said "Mom what are you doing

[00:01:07] You're ruining my rep"

[00:01:08] She said "You're only sixteen

[00:01:09] You don't have a rep yet"

[00:01:10] I said "Mom

[00:01:11] Let's put these clothes back please"

[00:01:13] She said "no you go to school

[00:01:14] To learn not for a fashion

[00:01:15] Show"

[00:01:16] I said "This isn't Sha na na

[00:01:17] Come on Mom I'm not Bowzer

[00:01:19] Mom please put back the bell-bottom

[00:01:20] Brady Bunch trousers

[00:01:21] But if you don't want to I can live with that but

[00:01:24] You gotta put back the double-knit

[00:01:25] Reversible slacks"

[00:01:27] She wasn't moved - everything stayed the same

[00:01:29] Inevitably the first day of school came

[00:01:32] I thought I could get over I tried to play sick

[00:01:35] But my mom said "No no way

[00:01:37] Uh-uh forget it"

[00:01:38] There was nothing I could do I tried to relax

[00:01:40] I got dressed up in those ancient artifacts

[00:01:43] And when I walked into school

[00:01:45] It was just as I thought

[00:01:46] The kids were cracking up

[00:01:47] Laughing at the clothes Mom bought

[00:01:49] And those who weren't laughing still had a ball

[00:01:51] Because they were pointing and whispering

[00:01:52] As I walked down the hall

[00:01:54] I got home and told my Mom how my day went

[00:01:57] She said "If they were

[00:01:58] Laughing you don't need the

[00:01:58] "Cause they're not good friends"

[00:02:00] For the next six hours

[00:02:01] I tried to explain to my Mom

[00:02:02] That I was gonna have to go through

[00:02:04] This about 200 more times

[00:02:05] So to you all the kids all across the land

[00:02:07] There's no need to argue

[00:02:09] Parents just don't understand

[00:02:22] Oh-kay here's the situation

[00:02:24] My parents went away on a week's vacation and

[00:02:27] They left the keys to the brand new Porsche

[00:02:29] Would they mind

[00:02:31] Umm well of course not

[00:02:33] I'll just take it for a little spin

[00:02:35] And maybe show it off to a couple of friends

[00:02:38] I'll just cruise it around the neighborhood

[00:02:40] Well maybe I shouldn't

[00:02:42] Yeah of course I should

[00:02:44] Pay attention here's the thick of the plot

[00:02:46] I pulled up to the corner at the end of my block

[00:02:48] That's when I saw this beautiful girlie

[00:02:50] Who was just

[00:02:51] Walking

[00:02:51] I picked up my car phone

[00:02:53] To perpetrate like I was talking

[00:02:55] You should've seen

[00:02:55] This girl's bodily dimensions

[00:02:57] I honked my horn just to get her attention

[00:03:00] She said oh"Was that for me "

[00:03:01] I said "Yeah"

[00:03:01] She said oh"my"

[00:03:02] I said "Come on and take a ride

[00:03:04] With a helluva guy"

[00:03:05] She said "How do I know that you're not sick

[00:03:08] You could be some deranged lunatic"

[00:03:10] I said "C'mon toots my name is the Prince

[00:03:13] Beside would a lunatic have a Porsche like this "

[00:03:16] She agreed and we were on our way

[00:03:18] She was looking very good and so was I

[00:03:21] Just might say

[00:03:22] We hit McDonald's pulled into the drive

[00:03:24] We ordered two Big Macs and two large fries

[00:03:27] She kicked her

[00:03:28] Shoes off onto the floor

[00:03:29] She said "Drive faster speed turns me on"

[00:03:32] She put her hand on my knee I put my foot on the gas

[00:03:35] We almost got whiplash I took off so fast

[00:03:38] The sun roof was open the music was high

[00:03:40] And this girl's hand was steadily moving up my thigh

[00:03:43] She had opened up three buttons on her shirt so far

[00:03:46] I guess that's why I didn't notice that (police car)

[00:03:49] We're doing ninety in my Mom's new Porsche

[00:03:51] And to make this long story short

[00:03:54] When the cop pulled me over I was scared as hell

[00:03:57] I said "I don't have a license but I drive very

[00:04:00] I almost had a heart attack that day

[00:04:02] Come to find out the girl was some

[00:04:04] A twelve-year-old runaway

[00:04:05] I was arrested the car was impounded

[00:04:08] And there was no way for me to avoid being grounded

[00:04:11] My parents had to come back get me

[00:04:13] I'd rather be in jail than to have my father hit me

[00:04:16] My parents walked in

[00:04:17] I got my grip I said

[00:04:19] "Ah Mom Dad how was your trip "

[00:04:22] They didn't speak

[00:04:23] I said "I want to plead my case"

[00:04:24] But my father just shoved me in the car by my face

[00:04:27] That was a hard ride home I don't know how I survived

[00:04:30] They took turns -

[00:04:31] One would beat me while the other one was driving

[00:04:33] I can't believe it I just made a mistake

[00:04:35] Well parents are the same no matter time nor place

[00:04:38] So to you all the kids all across the land

[00:04:40] Take it from me

[00:04:42] Parents just don't understand
