Kid's Allright
Rebellious Youth: Embracing Chaos and Growing Up
Lyrics
Down in the cellar with Dolly and Sue
Engaging in activities in the cellar with friends Dolly and Sue.
Smoking fags and feeling cool
Smoking cigarettes and feeling a sense of coolness.
Talking to the guy who lives downstairs
Conversing with a person who resides in the lower floor.
Walking around in ridiculous flares
Wearing flamboyant, exaggerated trousers while moving around.
Back in the bushes, we find a cat
Discovering a cat in the bushes.
Beat'm up with a baseball bat
Physically assaulting the cat with a baseball bat.
And grandma says we'll turn out bad
Grandma expressing concern that they will turn out to be troublemakers.
And go straight to hell, just like dad
Suggesting a bleak future, akin to their father going to hell.
But don't get your hopes up high
Cautioning against excessive optimism.
The kid's allright
Asserting that despite the challenges, the kid is doing fine.
Down in the cellar with Dolly and Sue
Returning to the cellar with Dolly and Sue.
Falling in love and feeling blue
Falling in love and experiencing a sense of melancholy.
Flirting with the guy who lives downstairs
Flirting with the person living downstairs.
And walking around in ridiculous flares
Continuing to wear extravagant trousers while moving around.
Playing hooky, pretend we're sick
Skipping responsibilities and pretending to be unwell.
Momma don't care if it's just a trick
Mom doesn't mind if it's a deception.
'Cause she just wishes she never had
Expressing regret for having children who drive her insane.
Those kids from hell who drive her mad
Referring to troublesome kids causing distress to the mother.
But don't get your hopes up high
Reiterating the warning against excessive optimism.
The kid's allright
Reassuring that despite challenges, the kid is doing fine.
Now don't you think the kid's allright
Emphasizing the positive assessment of the kid's well-being.
