The youth are getting restless 'cos they got no place to pace
They're sitting in their shopping malls and staring off into space
They drive their parents Subarus, looking for stupid stuff to do
Lost in a wasteland, with lots of time to waste

The kids will have no say, we've got no place to play
They're gonna have to pay for the things we've done
The kids will have no say, they're gonna have to wait
Until the day that they turn 21

Remember all the fun we had, those good times being bad
Going to shows when we were growing up
Well who jumped off that balcony, and who threw their bottle at me?

The kids will have no say, we've got no place to play
They're gonna have to pay for the things we've done
The kids will have no say, they're gonna have to wait
Until the day that they turn 21

So I said the hell with all the stupid kids, and all the stupid stuff they did
Until I realize it was us
Now what's this city coming to when every church and VFW
Has hosted shows, now their doors are shut

The kids will have no say, we've got no place to play
They're gonna have to pay for the things we've done
The kids will have no say, they're gonna have to wait
Until the day that they turn 21
