"I'm Not In Daycare" Video & Lyrics (Kid Remix Of Cardi B - Bodak Yellow)

Edited by Azizi Powell

[Revised October 28, 2017]

This is Part I of a two part pancocojams series that features the children's Rap song that I've entitled "I'm Not In Daycare"*

Part I showcases a video of children's remix of of Carla B's Hip Hop song "Bodax Yellow" ("I'm Not In Daycare")*

My transcription of the lyrics to this children's remix are also included in this post.

Click http://pancocojams.blogspot.com/2017/10/analyzing-comments-from-youtube.html for Part II of this series. Part II of this series provides an analysis of categories of comments from the YouTube discussion thread for "I'm Not In Daycare" (Kid Remix Of Cardi B - Bodak Yellow)*. This analysis pays particular attention to the use of African American Vernacular English terms and grammar as well as the use of internet/text writing by commenters who appear to be children or pre-teens.

*This video has no title for this song except Cardi B's "Bodak Yellow" (Kid Remix). However, as there are other "Kid remixes" that use the instrumental music for "Bodax Yellow", this children's rap song certainly should have an additional title. I use "I'm Not In Daycare" as the that line is most often repeated in that song.

The content of this post is presented for cultural, entertainment, and aesthetic purposes.

Thanks to original composer of the "Bodax Yellow" music and thanks to the composer of this Kid remix. Thanks also to all those who are featured in this video and thanks to Stephen J. Taylor for directing and publishing this video on YouTube.

LYRICS: I'M NOT IN DAYCARE (KID REMIX OF CARDI B-"BODAK YELLOW")
(Stephen J. Taylor, composer?)

I’m a big kid
I’m not in daycare
Now I go to school
These are expensive so in recess
These are my playing shoes
Snack time I can’t get them both
I don’t wanna choose.
And we don’t take naps
So don’t get comfortable.

I’m not in daycare
Now I go to school
I’m not in daycare
Now I go to school

Mama told me to behave
So that's what I'm gonna do
I’m at the top of my class
And I don’t plan to move.

Now she said “What
About who?
On that test I got a “D”?
Girl, please.
The only grades I make are “A”s and “B’s”.
Come see, my report card if you don’t trust me.
But when I show my Daddy he say he’s so proud of me.

Honestly, when I go to school I miss my mommy.
But I’m a big kid I am not a baby.
At daycare we learn our numbers and our “ABC”s.
But now I’m in 5K and I’m learning how to read.

I’m not in daycare
Now I go to school
I’m not in daycare
Now I go to school

These are expensive so in recess
These are my playing shoes.
Snack time I can’t get them both
I don’t wanna choose.
And we don’t take naps
So don’t get comfortable

I’m not in daycare
Now I go to school
I’m not in daycare
Now I go to school

Mama told me to behave
So that's what I'm gonna do
I’m at the top of my class
And I don’t plan to move.

"These are expensive" refer to the girl's tennis shoes.

"Recess" - a time for play during school that usually occurs after lunch

"5K" probably refers to the classroom number for the girl's kindergarten class.

In many schools in the United States, the grading system is "E" (or "F") failing, "D" below average, "C" average, "B" good, and "A" very good.
