Lyrics:
If you've fooled around, honey
Clap your hands! *clap *clap
And you don't have lots of money
Clap your hands! *clap *clap
Now your belly's gettin' bigger
You don't wanna pull the trigger
But you got a baby brewin'
Clap your hands! *clap *clap

There's somethin' you should do
So clap your hands! *clap *clap
About the programs there for you
So clap your hands! *clap *clap
When you don't know where to turn
You don't hafta' crash and burn
If you're ready to get help
Then, clap your hands! *clap *clap

WIC is a helpful one
For moms, toddlers 5 and under
Food, nutrition education
And referrals, so don'tcha blunder
Look up your local agency
To get your healthy fix
By calling 1-800-342-3556

When you're pregnant and for sometime after
Medicaid might be an option
They give you that extra push
Be glad, because it don't come often
If you make too much for Medicaid
SCHIP might be for you
It is coverage for uninsured kids
So they don't get the flu

For in-need families
Who wanna get back on their feet
TANF can save the day
So you will never have to skip a beat
CCDF helps with childcare
It's developmental funds
They're for helping you transition
So, don't stand there stunned

But if there's one thing to say
Just one thing to recommend
It's to go to work or go to school
So you can comprehend
Go get smarter, learn a skill
We say go improve your worth
So, good luck with all this info
All before your baby's birth

Mike, this is hilarious but surprisingly informational. :-P

What was this for?

[butwithaK]

My "Poverty in America" class. A project to help to raise awareness for low-income moms and expecting moms out there. We also made a brochure! The link to see both pages is located in the description of the video =)

That was kinda disterbing

[RewardHonesty]

If your parents failed and you will likely too, clap your hands.

If you’re promiscuous and irresponsible, clap your hands.

If you spread your legs or used your penis without thinking of the consequences, clap your hands.

If you bring a child into this world unprepared, as a low intellect, unaware, careless, and poor parent, clap your hands. 

If you now understand why they call it ‘FOOLing’ around, clap your hands.

Any two immature, imbeciles can have sex and produce a child.

WAKE UP!!

TANF save the day? $229 a month? For 1 child. Typical rent in America today is $1000 a month. Wic is a joke. Foodstamps last 15 days if you really really stretch them. They are brainwashing you guys earlier and earlier now-a-days.
