"Sticks and Stones"

You know, sometimes friends fight
That don’t mean a friendship’s gotta end, right?
Let me tell you a little story…

Now, Steve was a friend of mine
Best friends, friends till the end of time
One the playground, we hung from the monkey bars
At the fairground, we rode on the bumper cars
Stared up at the stars, saw the man in the moon
But can you believe Steve never ever learned to clean his room?
Now that spelled doom when he left out his toys
And I stepped on his favorite, I heard the noise
When I breaked it , I mean, broke it
No kid got more angry than Steve got.
I said, “Don’t’ get
Mad, man, it was an accident.
But it took a little while to get back to friends
He started actin’ strange, called me lots of names
Cause getting’ angry, that can make a kid change.
I got mad too, and so we had an argument
We started yellin’ back and forth, and this is how it went

I know you are, but what am I?
I know you are, but what am I?
I know you are, but what am I?
Na, na, na, na, na, na!

Now I can’t say that felt good
I can’t say either of us always act like we should
But I can say that the very next day
Steve came to play and all the bad feelings went away
Life’s not always an awesome dream
Sometimes you gotta blow off some steam
That’s just part of friendship.
If it cost a dollar every time you hollered at a friend it’d get expensive.
Don’t get sensitive when a fight happens.
The best way to end an argument is by laughin’
Don’t let it go too far-It’s just games
You know who you are-Don’t trust names
They call you to make you mad, make you feel small, too
It makes you feel lonely but, hey, we all do.
When you feel like a fool and nothing can help
Just remember you rule-Stand up for yourself!

I know you are, but what am I?
I know you are, but what am I?
I know you are, but what am I?
Na, na, na, na, na, na!

Callin’ names can be heavy like a ball and chain
But it can be fun, too, cause it’s all a game
You can make ‘em laugh instead of causin’ pain
You could be in the name callin’ hall of fame
Cause if we’re good friends, we can take jokes
We’re not made of glass, jokes don’t break folks
We can take pokes, prods, and a little shovin’
Strong like a great oak, cool like a broken oven.
Some call it clownin’ people, or the dozens
You probably done it with your brothers, sisters or your cousins
Makin’ fun can be fun, that’s why it’s called that.
But you gotta have respect or it falls flat.
If you’re not sure it’s cool, don’t do it.
You feel bad when you make your friend feel stupid
But if you’re sure it’s cool, then let it rip
And when they call you names, tell them this

Sticks and stones can break my bones
But words won’t never hurt me
And you can’t get me out of my zone
Even if you fight dirty.
Cause I’m rubber, and you’re glue
Anything you say bounce off me, stick to you
And guess what, man, life’s like that, too.
So you’d better watch what you do.


I know you are, but what am I?
I know you are, but what am I?
I know you are, but what am I?
Na, na, na, na, na, na!
I said I know you are, but what am I?
I know you are, but what am I?
I know you are, but what am I?
Na, na, na, na, na, na!


That’s right, y’all, that’s right, y’all
So don’t worry about a little fight, y’all
It can still end up alright, y’all
So keep your friends real close
And stay tight, y’all.
