BAD BOYZ (Stephen Stills) 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 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 behavior 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 Crosby, Stills and Nash "After The Storm" Atlantic Records 1994
