Kid Personal Crusade

I'm a nine-year-old ball of mad, don't like this thing I see Got me bouncing off the walls, mama wanna know what's wrong with me So I tell her, but only so much Don't want mama burning a trail, ending up in jail Anyhow, I don't need no parental aid, I'm the neighborhood kid who first wore the justice cape From my x-ray eyes they can't escape, when they're doing something wrong I'm gonna catch them, and make them cry uncle Right now, it's summertime, which means a lot of long lines ... and outside there's no shade As I see the object of my ire, what stokes my personal crusade For two bucks, bad Kenny is selling one dollar lemonade I hate seeing greedy people getting paid, I got a mind to overturn his crook stand haterade Even though I'm just a kid, that's my personal crusade ... at least for today
