This shirt cost $20" I said, "Mom, this shirt is plaid with a butterfly collar!" The next half-hour was the same old thing My mother buying me clothes from 1963 I said, "Mom, let's put these clothes back, please" She said, "No You go to school to learn not for a fashion show" There was nothing I could do I tried to relax I got dressed up in those ancient artifacts And when I walked into school It was just as I thought The kids were cracking up laughing At the clothes Mom bought And those who weren't laughing still had a ball Because they were pointing and whispering As I walked down the hall I got home and told my mom how my day went She said, "If they were laughing, you don't need 'em 'Cause they're not good friends" So to you all the kids all across the land There's no need to argue Parents just don't understand Parents just don't understand (CHEERS AND APPLAUSE) Yes! POOCH: Yes, sir! - LL: So, that's a classic.
- POOCH: Oh, yeah.
Tell me, how did you arrive at that choice? You know what I'm saying? That song.
That was a song that was one of my first rap songs that I learned how to do.
'Cause my father was like, "I don't want you to listen to that rap music.
" - So, I had to, like, you know, - (LAUGHTER) you know, ease into it, so "Parents Just Don't Understand" was A way to 'cause your dad didn't understand.
