Youth Of Today - By Amy MacDonald

Amy Macdonald [2007]

Lyrics -

Maybe, if you were some spear-headed guy,
I would listen to what you have to say,
But your just some incapable figure thinking your bigger than me,
But your not,
Yeah, 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.

And we are the youth of today,
Change your hair in every way,
And 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 its just your one sided opinions getting in my way,
And you dont no a single thing about the youth of today.
Stating your opinion,
And 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 your 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 your 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

I really love this song! Thx Amy!

It is about how our world is changing. How socalled grown-ups ignore and supress our childrens unique personalities. Children these days - not all - are highly intelligent. They must break the old patterns in order to create a space so a more sophisticated society can arise.

We should learn how to interact with and learn from our children, instead of turning them into little robots.

To those who cannot respect that.. 'It's not your day, no more.' ;-)

Peace

Amy is so unique , totally this song is great

I think the older generation (not all) should hear this song. There are some great older people that have had such interesting lives and it includes some of our grandparents who love and care about us. But there are also a great number of older people who think they are better than us and stereotype us. Our generation has more fire, more passion and more spirit than the generations before us and we are shaping the future of our world.

I love this song. I think the older people (not all) just the ones that stereotype us should hear this song. Our generation has more fire, more passion, more spirit and yes we are changing and shaping the future.

heard people talking about the 'problem youths' or 'thugs' as a guy from the Sun (surprise...) said, on Question Time. it makes me angry that they didn't even for a second address the fact that all these 'problems' come from the british under class. maybe this is a structural problem? maybe a lot of these 'asbo teens' are the young ones who have no chance in society and they know it.

I Love This Song, And Yeah Adults Amy's Right 'You Dont Know a Single Thing About The Youth Of Today'
