Do Not Make Me Kick Your Petootie

If you are paranoid and you see the cops give you the eye Run like a cougar. Run like the wind, and do not look back. If you are learned and you hear them coming They may indeed be coming after you. Do not let them get you on the ground. If there are four of them, fight them all. Forget being socialized Forget being mannerly Forget being polite Run like your grandma is going to kick your petootie Because if you don’t your grandma may have to kick your butt your petootie. The child stared at his grandmother. You are kidding, right? I wish I was, she told him. I truly wish I was.
