Whats the matter with the kids today
Is there something wrong with what theyre saying?
No one wants to listen, does anyone have time
Everything is veiled in a cheap disguiseKids are shooting kids on the news today
And if you ask me Im not surprised
Look what theyve created, a monster by the age of five
Say goodnightPoor Johnny, hes crazy
Has problems you can see
Dont worry be happy
Now tell us what you seeThey dont listen, no problem
Homegrown from society
Just like me, are you ready for the fall?
When youre not prepared for the world at all
You thought you had it allKeep spreading your destiny
And theyll follow your mediocrity
Tell the kids a bedtime story about what life should be
When you embrace life with broken armsAnd their truth cant set it free
Brought up with resistance
Condemn the world for being me
Say good night, say good night
Say good night, say good nightAre you ready for the fall?
When youre not prepared for the world at all
You thought you had it all
