Children's Story is a song. It tells the tragic tale of a 17 year old boy whos attempt to rob an undercover detective end in him pointing a gun at the D.T, the teenager has second thoughts about and makes a run for it. He then steals a car, which he later crashs yet surviving, he then grabs a pregnant lady and points a gun at her but 'Deep in his heart he knew he was wrong, so he let the lady go and he starts to run on'. The song ends with the lyrics 'He was only seventeen, in a dream, the cops shot the kid, I still hear him scream, this ain't funny so don't ya dare laugh, just another case 'bout the wrong path, straight 'n narrow or yo' soul gets cast?

Which, in a nutshell, means that the 17 year old boy had been shot after he surrendered and Slick Rick tells the audience not to follow the wrong path. 'Children's Story' appeared in the popular video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, on classic hip hop radio station Playback FM. The song was also featured on the rival: New York City soundtrack.
