I know I understand mom and dad beat you up
I know I understand you've been incested you've been assaulted
I know I understand cuz it all happened to me
I know I understand it's time to run away to Berkeley
Take the first plane, Hope the first train
Hitch the first ride, save your own life
Stick your thumb out on the freeway, it's the only way your gonna be free
I know I understand your worried about a place to stay
I know I understand we got plenty of real estate
I know I understand your worried about what to eat
I know I understand we got three meals a day every day of the week
Kids won't take it anymore
You call it discipline we know it as terrorism and war (on us)
Kids won't take it anymore
You call it love we know it as terrorism and war (on us)
Take the first plane, Hop the first train
Hitch the first ride, save your own life
Stick your thumb out on the freeway
It's the only way your gonna be free
