“Kick it!”
Main riff: A, C, D (tune down ½ step)
[A]
You wake up late for school man you don’t wanna go {riff}
You ask you mom, “Please?” but she still says, “No!” {riff}
You missed two classes and no homework {riff}
But your teacher preaches class like you’re some kind of jerk
D D D D
C: You gotta fight, for your right, to party
You pops caught you smoking and he said, “No way!”
That hypocrite smokes two packs a day
Man, living at home is such a drag
Now your mom threw away your best porno mag (Busted!)
[chorus]
{interlude G riff: G, E, E, E | G, E, E, E etc.}
[Solo]
Don’t step out of this house if that’s the clothes you’re gonna wear
I’ll kick you out of my home if you don’t cut that hair
Your mom busted in and said, “What’s that noise?”
Aw, mom you’re just jealous it’s the Beastie Boys!
[chorus x2]
