Youth of the Modern World

You’ve been told all your life that
You’re the youth of a modern nation
But all you see in your eyes is a modern disaster
You spend your life slaving to get an education
Even though they say
That «it won’t be enough
To get the job
To get you the home
To give you the life
That makes life worth living»
You’re the youth of the modern world
You’re the youth of the modern world
The future is yours, don’t let the present cheat you
You’re the youth of the modern world
You’re the youth of the modern world
The future starts now and it belongs to you
Public servants of the community
Talking about how much they care for the youth
But with no vote you become only a photo-op to shoot
By way of visits to your under-funded school
And the mall where they taught you how to consume
Nevermind the curfew saying
«We don’t trust you, we don’t believe you
When you’re on the street, no good is what you’re up to»
They say, they say the youth are angry
They say, they say the youth are mad
But they don’t know about you or me
No, they don’t know about you or me
No, they don’t know about you or me
Or you, or him, or her, or you, or me
Oh no, oh nooo!
yeah!
Sometimes I feel so enraged
Wondering if things will ever change?
Why the hell does everybody have to buy into the game?
A society that lives to work
And a government that spents more money on bombs than schools
No wonder the kids are always looking for something new
This is the computer age
This is the modern age
This is the age of sophistication
Yet there are so few out there among the hight-tech geniuses
That even have a clue what is important to the youth
Or know what the youth can do!
And what the youth can do
Is so unbelievable…
So unforgettable…
So incredible…
And don’t forget it!
Don’t fucking forget it!
