Bastards of Young |
God, what a mess, on the ladder of success |
Where you take one step and miss the whole first rung |
Dreams unfulfilled, graduate unskilled |
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten |
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young |
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young |
The daughters and the sons |
Clean your baby womb, trash that baby boom |
Elvis in the ground, no way, no gear tonight |
Income tax deduction, what a hell of a function |
It beats pickin' cotton and waitin' to be forgotten |
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young |
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young |
Now the daughters and the sons |
Unwillingness to claim us, well ya got no right to name us |
The ones who love us best |
Are the ones we’ll lay to rest |
And visit their graves on holidays at best |
The ones who love us least |
Are the ones we’ll die to please |
If it’s any consolation, I don’t begin to understand them |
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young |
We are the sons of no one, bastards of young |
The daughters and the sons |
Of young… |
Take it, it’s yours… |
