[Verse 1]
He's been this down for so long
I bet that you have heard about it
We've made the news, he's made the news
And papa's had a heart attack
Behind the bars from an act
Officer, please give him back
He's just a boy, half as much as the mob's rolling Cadillac
[Chorus]
Everybody prance
Everybody quake
Everybody shuffle
Young boy has met his fate
[Post-Chorus]
Have you learned your lesson
Why you shouldn't toy with crime?
I hope you make progression doing time, oh, doing time
Have you learned your lesson
Why you shouldn't toy with crime?
I hope you make progression doing time, oh, doing time
[Verse 2]
We're all prone to make mistakes
I know that we don't wanna talk about them
But see the good that he has made
His schoolwork is a ten of ten
And now he knows that freedom grows only when you don't get caught
He's worked so hard, with good intent
Just please don't trust the government
[Chorus]
Everybody prance
Everybody quake
Everybody shuffle
Young boy has met his fate
