Lemonade Stand

[Clip from Kenan and Kel]


[Main Kid]

Was watching Nickelodeon one day and thought

Too young to get a job, but somewhere I gotta start

Watching my favorite show, Kenan trying to get that money

But he does it so wrong, that that shit ain't even funny

Take a break from the television, now I'm playing games

Funny how Sonic the Hedgehog be collecting them rings

But if you fall, unfortunately, you lose them all

It's bringing me life lessons

Who says you can't learn from the Genesis?

The concept of money, I'm really getting into this

Need to devise a plan so I can be pushing them Benzes

Call up my boy and say

"Yo what you doin'?"


[Friend]

(Zip, nada and nothing, you tryin' to get into something?)


[Main Kid]

"Let's make a lemonade stand and get a couple grand"


[Friend]

(No way we makin' that much)


[Main Kid]

"We'll still be gettin' cash

Bein' a kid is cool and all"


[Friend]

(We still in elementary school)


[Main Kid]

"But, dude, just roll with me, we just need another guy"


[Friend]

(That older kid from down the street would probably be fine)


[Main Kid]

"Is he a trustworthy dude?"


[Friend]

(I've known him for years, he's cool)


[Main Kid]

"Aight then, call him up and ask him for some plastic cups

I've got the lemons and such, we're gonna need much

Meet me in my driveway later today. I can't wait"


[Friend]

(Wait for what?)


[Main Kid]

"I can't wait to get paid"


[Friend]

(*laughs* Yo, you crazy for this, man. I'll see you in the driveway later, dude)


[Main Kid]

"Aight, one!"

[Hook: Main Kid](x2)

Don't get in the way of my lemonade stand

We gotta sell so we can get a couple grand

Don't get in the way of my lemonade stand

We gotta sell so we can get paid


[Main Kid]

I met up with my friend and the older kid at the scene

Kinda sketchy looking dude, but supposedly he is clean


[Older kid]

(It's been a fuckin' hour)


[Friend]

(Was fun while it lasted)


[Main Kid]

The next ten minutes, we were gettin' mad traffic

A long day's work, yet to count the cash

I was in the back, cleanin' up all the trash

I say "Since you the oldest, you should probably count the money"

For some reason, he chuckled like something was really funny

He then counts the paper, gives us our split

Then says "see ya later" and runs off real quick

"How much money did we make?"


[Friend]

(He counted ninety)


[Main Kid]

"I have ten! I knew this fool was screwin' with me!

I'm not a mathematician, but listen

Ninety divided by three is thirty under any condition"

That's twenty reasons to keep this nigga from breathin'

Little did he know I knew he was behind my back schemin'

"I'm bout to kill this nigga, believe me

I do my job and get shorted? Oh my God, tell me what's the reason"

Grab my Super Soaker shooter then hop on my bike

Speedin' down the hill thinkin' yes it's gonna be a fight

Scope out the house and he's nowhere around

Ring the bell, ear to the door, not hearing a sound

What a clown, he must know I'm lookin' for his ass

Went around the back and I started bangin' on the glass

He stumbles out the side door and hides behind cover

Super Soaker fully loaded, his chest is gettin' imploded


[Older kid]

(Why you actin funny? Why you tryin to shoot me?)


[Main Kid]

"Stop actin' like Chuckie, you chicken, and give me my money!"

He refuses, my brain is saying 'Settle with the parents'

But this motherfucker thinks that I'm playing

Which leaves me to angrily begin to move forward; throw a water grenade

Hit him in the face, now his vision's distorted

Shoot my gun once, missed on the first try

Then I steadied my aim and hit the nigga in the eye

Took my money and his, there's darkness in the sky

Ride away on my bike, I can still hear his cries

[Hook: Main Kid](x2)

*Door closes*


[Main Kid]

Moooom! Daaaad! I'm home!


[Both Parents]

Hey! (Mom: Hey baby boy!)


[Main Kid]

I'm hungry. What are we eating?


[Dad]

We've got, uh, chicken. Macaroni and cheese...and uh, some of your lemonade left over


[Main Kid]

"Cool"


[Dad]

Oh, aye. Uh, how did that go by the way?


[Main Kid]

*laughs* Perfectly fine


[Main Kid]

Whoa whoa whoa...did my boy set me up?
