Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yeah, boy, another ABC card (Playground)
Comin' from the playground, take it straight back to the bricks
Yo, Chris, tell 'em what it is ('Round)
[Verse 2]
Chillin', cooler than a squeak kickin' dirt off my sneakers
Suckers on the corner lookin' down at their beepers
They couldn't get a job or a nice home
So they wanna stay and wait for the payphone
Take JoJo, he's the youngest
Girls jock him 'cause he's best dressed
Red bottoms flossed all through the neighborhood
Sweatin' that brother, tryna see why he's livin' good
[Verse 3]
Rollin' through the park, tryna make another hit
Little do they know, that soldier's legit (Play)
I'm not sayin' this to put nobody down (Play)
This is what I see at the playground (Play, play, play, play)
You know (Playground)
[Verse 4]
Aw, yeah, another ABC smash
But don't it make you mad, sissy? (Playground)
A come on, a come on, everybody
And guess who's up next? Kick it
[Verse 5]
L-I-L-D-A-V-E
Four feet, shorty of the crew
Let me get on the mic, we'll see what I can do
When I'm all alone
Cold rockin' the microphone
At home, plan to live like Capone
Large is how I'm livin', holmes
[Verse 6]
Kick it, D, kick it, D, kick it (Play, play)
Pump it, D, pump it, D, pump it (Play, play)
Swing it, D, swing it, D, swing it (Play, play)
I swing my beat at the playground, you know
[Verse 7]
Everybody (Playground)
Come on, y'all, lil' soul is in effect
Put your hands in the air, put your hands in the air
I don't wanna see nobody sittin' in their chairs (Playground)
Do that, do that, yo, Ro, you up next
[Verse 8]
Well, I'm RoRo, comin' in third
Now it's about that time that I get heard
None of my rhymes will never ever be served
Word to her, play tricks on your nerves
Every one I serve is real superb
And I'll be right back with part two of this funky rhyme, G
Yeah, boy ('Round)
[Verse 9]
Yo, Red, I don't wanna flow no more, man
Y'all go ahead, I'm just gon' sit back and listen to this ghetto swing
'Cause this is what I do at the playground
[Verse 10]
You know what I'm sayin'? (Playground)
Aw, yeah, ABC gonna sing
Added to this missile, fusin' hip-hop
With a little ghetto swing (Playground)
Yo, Red, kick the ballistics, G
[Verse 11]
It's the R to the E to the D and
What you get is what you're seein'
Straight up b-boy, word to miss
Kickin' and flippin' the rhymes
For the kids, man, for the kids
[Verse 12]
Chillin' in the park, nice and smooth
JoJo and Mark tried to bust my groove
You a kid, so do my worst on the weekends
This is where I'm at, Iesha (Iesha)
Had a big fanny, not like Annie
Gave up the pudding for a letter and some candy
[Verse 13]
At the playground, you know (Playground)
Okay, I guess you know by now
Big smashin' moves, pants inside out, a fresh Starter cap (Playground)
And of course, put your name on the front, smooth
Yo, Mark, take it home
[Verse 14]
Into the mizzark, chillin' in the pizzark
I gotta break because my mother say, "Be home by dizzark"
But before I go
I'm gonna flow for you one time, see
So listen to the rhyme, G
The East Coast Family
Boyz II Men, ABC, BBD
Now flip the tracks, D
[Verse 15]
My mother is mad, and my brother is Red
It's Mario Brothers or it's time for bed
Last but not least, I wanna say peace and we outta here
From the playground, you know (Playground)
[Verse 16]
(Playground)
