Yo, oh man, yo

Yo, you remember when your girl used to like me and you?

Oh, man, it's all good though, 'cause like, yo

You know what I'm talkin' about?

We been doin' this for years

Here, you can hold my Cazals, yo, word

Yo

Dude, you remember when we used to make zip guns, shootin' 'em?

Playin' skelly plus balls, we be whoopin' 'em

Hopscotch, high waters, pop gave us quarters

Rock candy, Miss Terry with the cute daughters

Spin the bottle, catch, kiss, and get a little bit

I remember when we used to carry little sticks

Mad ribbons in they hair, we kept little chicks

Black parties, rollerskatin' up and down the block

Red Alert, Bambaataa, plus Doctor Rock

Gucci frames, no lenses, with the big box

Reeboks in every color with the slouch socks

Don Hill, Auto-sneakers, plus polka dots

I remember when we never heard of crack spots

Best friends, little stores on the bike rims

Tight knees, bell bottoms with the striped blends

Halloween, Thanksgiving, plus Christmas

Now brothers actin' like they never even heard of this

Do you remember?

Do you remember when we used to eat beans and franks

And Mama Love used to get on us to say our thanks?

Or when we used to play tag, hidin' under the couch?

Tryna get in rec' parties, they was kickin' us out

Now how about when we used to play hooky from school

And somebody else parents beat us and make a junk food?

You remember Kangol hats was stuffed with plastic

And bowl cuts we had was shaped like a basket?

We used to be after sentence squeezin' a chick's butt

And everybody that was corny, we called 'em a duck

Sometimes we beatbox and we banged on tables

Graffiti was everywhere, plus the fat gold cables

Yo, you know what was real funny, man?

When we— while— while all the time we

Used to have, like, holes in our knees

On our pants, on our jeans

We always kept holes right there for some strange reason

And remember when we used to have the sneakers

And they used to, like, go out in the back?

And sometime the sock be ripped in the back

And sometime in the front too?

When the— the sneaker used to wear down

And sometimes the sock used to come out the front right there?
