Little Inez:
[singing]
I'm tired of coverin' up all my pride. Rhonda - Detention Kid, Hoo Hoo - Detention Kid, Tyrone - Detention Kid, Duane - Detention Kid, Jermaine - Detention Kid, Janetta - Detention Kid:
So give me five on the black-hand side. Little Inez:
I got a new way of movin' and I got my own voice. Rhonda - Detention Kid, Hoo Hoo - Detention Kid, Tyrone - Detention Kid, Duane - Detention Kid, Jermaine - Detention Kid, Janetta - Detention Kid:
So how can I help just to shout and rejoice? Little Inez:
Oh, the people 'round here can barely pay their rent./They're tryin' to make dollar out o' fifteen cent./But we got a spirit money just can't buy./It's deep as a river, it soars to the sky!
