[Lyrics for Amy Macdonald – Youth Of Today]
Maybe if you were some spearheaded guy
I would listen to what you have to say
But you’re just some incapable figure
Thinking you’re bigger than me
But you’re not
Yet you don’t know a thing about the youth of today
Stating your opinion
Making it ring in my head all day
And you say
My children weren’t the same
My children’s children they’re the ones to blame
And you say
In my day we were better behaved
But it’s not your day no more…
We are the youth of today
Change our hair in every way
We are the youth of today
We’ll say what we want to say
And we are the youth of today
Don’t care what you have to say at all
And maybe if you had a true point of view
I would listen to you
But it’s just your one sided feelings
They keep getting in my way
And you don’t know a single thing
About the youth of today
Stating your opinion making it ring in my head all day
And you say
My children weren’t the same
My children’s children they’re the ones to blame
And you say
In my day we were better behaved
But it’s not your day no more…
We are the youth of today
Change our hair in every way
We are the youth of today
We’ll say what we want to say
And we are the youth of today
Don’t care what you have to say at all
And you say
My children weren’t the same
My children’s children they’re the ones to blame
And you say
In my day we were better behaved
But it’s not your day no more…
We are the youth of today
Change our hair in every way
We are the youth of today
We’ll say what we want to say
And we are the youth of today
Don’t care what you have to say at all
