Lyrics
1st Verse
I was a disaffected youth,
I came up with a plan
it was the rock ‘n’ roll music
for the angry Young Man
I was really pretty pissed
I had an ax to grind
It seemed my dad was on my ass all the friggin time
2nd Verse
I got a kid that don’t work
Yeah, he’s living off me
I can’t tell him nothing
Cause he wants to be free
Raising hell, sleeping late and always talking back
Got a snotty look that's just asking for a whack
(Chorus)
Kids these days are out of control
just do what they want
won’t do what they’re told
got no respect
don’t wanna go to school
just wanna get high and act like a fool!
3rd Verse
Oh my God !
I sound just like my dad
Now I think I know
why he always seemed mad
I was trying to get away
trying to find my own way
but that is no excuse for
these friggin kids today!
(Chorus)
Kids these days are out of control
just do what they want
won’t do what they’re told
got no respect
don’t wanna go to school
just wanna get high and act like a fool!
