Hey kids pay attention
Addressing children, emphasizing the importance of paying attention.
You gotta know your rights
Encouraging awareness of one's rights among children.
Thin, fat, it doesn't matter
Asserting that physical appearance (thin or fat) is irrelevant to rights.
Neither does your height.
Stating that height does not affect the rights of individuals.
You have the right to school
Highlighting the right to education for every child.
You gotta know your math
Emphasizing the importance of knowledge, specifically in mathematics.
A family that loves you
Stressing the right to have a loving family.
Including your old man.
Including the role of the father in a loving family environment.
If you are kind of shy
Addressing children who may be shy, advocating against exclusion.
If you're short and stout
Supporting children of different physical characteristics, like being short and stout.
It's really pretty obvious
Expressing the obviousness of not leaving anyone out based on appearance.
You shouldn't be left out.
Advocating against exclusion based on physical attributes.
So what if you're a girl
Emphasizing gender equality by stating that being a girl or boy does not matter.
So what if you're a boy
Encouraging both genders to defend their rights and joy.
You should defend your rights
Advocating for the defense of individual rights.
You should defend your joy.
Encouraging the protection of personal happiness and well-being.
When you are at school
Addressing challenges at school and the right to address problems.
And nothing's working out
Encouraging resilience when facing difficulties at school.
Rise your arm real high
Advising children to assert their right to express doubt or seek help.
You have the right to doubt.
Highlighting the importance of questioning when things are not working out.
Even when you must
Acknowledging the obligation to complete chores.
Finish up your chores
Stressing that even in duties, the right to personal expression and joy is retained.
You always have the right
Emphasizing the constant right to strive for personal achievement.
To jump high and score.
Encouraging a positive and ambitious attitude despite responsibilities.
