Music is a powerful force for change.That is why the music
of youth is so often censored, it speaks truths about problems that the
older generation would rather not face. This is a collection of lyrics and poetry that
seem to speak to the youth rights movement. If you have any suggestions or words of your own

What's the Matter With Kids Today?
by NOFX
What's The Matter With Kids Today ?
There's something wrong
with the kids in my neighborhood
They always listen to music
They disregard civil disobedience
They'd rather do what they're told
They don't drink or fuck off
They sit home, and read, expand their minds
There's something wrong with
the kinds in my cul de sac
Their always goin to church
They dress well and they're
Speaking articulate
They show eachother respect
They're never late, don't joke
or break rules
They eat right, study hard
They like school
There's something wrong
