Street Kids

Like ma mum I start calling em urchins
Just messing and larking about.
"Why don't they go do sommat useful?"
I can hear myself starting to shout.

"They're just makin noise for t'sake a makin noise,
And that language 'ld turn the air blue.
If they want to play out, why'd they have to shout,
They're allus bickering or having a set to."

But I stop myself then, cause I hear how I sound.
All judgemental of kids being out.
Just cause I didn't do it when I were a lad,
Doesn't mean every kid on the street is a lout.
