Now listen kids when you click on the web
and you're surfin' for somethin' to do;
chattin' in a Chattanooga chat room with a man named
Mr. Kazoo";
well, don't give out your name and number or your
address too!
It ain't safe to give it out, if you ain't got a
clue.
Now, I'm not sayin' that strangers
are bad
or that you can't make friends,
I'm just sayin' it's smart to keep it safe
when your parents aren't watchin'...
(so) don't give out your name and number or your
address too!
It ain't safe to give it out if you ain't got a
clue.
(spoken): "That's right, Kids!
You don't want to
give out private information on the Internet.
You don't want to give out your phone number,
the name of your school, your address, your password...
and certainly not your parents credit card numbers!
Oh no! That's just between you and your parents!"
Now there's good stuff on the Internet,
but some things might make you upset:
a picture or a word that's bad...just tell your
teacher, mom or dad!
If you feel uncomfortable, just tell your parents
now,
then they will help you decide what to choose and
how.
Now most folks on the Internet are nice to everyone,
but some are mean like bullies who act nasty just
for fun!
So, don't take it hard if someone says something
real mean,
just say "good-bye", click-away, and keep
your own nose clean.
It's cool to be a good citizen of
the world and when you go Online,
you can tell jokes and read a funny story, but just
keep this in mind:
All those other clickers on the other side, it's
true,
are human beings with hopes and dreams
and feelings just like you.
Now if you're Online and you can't
remember what to do,
just click-on "The SafeKids Online Song"
and it will get you through.
You can still have lots of fun and be a safe kid
too,
just be polite and keep your private info. safe
with you...
you can still have lots of fun and be a safe kid
too,
just be polite and keep your private info. safe
with you.
