Children's Story is a song by Slick Rick. It tells the tragic tale of a 17 year old boy whos attempt to rob an undercover detective end in him pointing a gun at the D.T, the teenager has second thoughts about pulling the trigger and makes a run for it. He then steals a car, which he later crashs yet surviving, he then grabs a pregnant lady and points a gun at her but "Deep in his heart he knew he was wrong, so he let the lady go and he starts to run on". The song ends with the lyrics "He was only seventeen, in a madman's dream, the cops shot the kid, I still hear him scream, this ain't funny so don't ya dare laugh, just another case 'bout the wrong path, straight 'n narrow or yo' soul gets cast? Which, in a nutshell, means that the 17 year old boy had been shot after he surrendered and Slick Rick tells the audience not to follow the wrong path.

Get the children of bodom mug.They are the root of all evil. They take your money, your time, and your pride. Children will never stop being children and will be forever parasites and won't ever fucking move out of your basement. So unless you want to lose the rest of your life to an ungrateful degenerate, you should wear a fucking condom like I fucking said, Karen!
