Youth

Welcome to the world of the modern youth

Lighting in the morning and the map on the top
Working for a living is becoming a chore
Painting on the face to masquerade my thoughts
And I know you never listen when I tell you the truth
about the education of my modern youth
But I hope
Maybe someday soon we'll get away
To a better place

And live the high life
Somewhere in the limelight
Somewhere where it ain't so scummy
And we pay them money
We'll talk highlights
Prospects in the linetime
I'm talking them hard times from 9 to 5
The lighting in the morning on the top shop floor
Everybody rockin in a top shop store
Painting on their face to masquerade their thoughts
And you know I never listen when you tell me the truth
About the words you say of my modern youth
But I hope
Maybe someday soon we'll get away
to a better place

And live the high life
somewhere In the limelight
somewhere where it ain't so scummy
And we pay them money
We'll talk highlights
Prospects and the line time
I'm talking them hard times from 9 to 5

So call your friends and they will ignore
and there's nowt in life they can't do they can repay today
But I'm trying not to ridicule
Cause my conscience lift me will endorse and I'm holding on

To live the high life
somewhere in the limelight
Somewhere where it ain't so scummy
And we pay them money
We'll talk highlights
Prospects and the line time
I'm talking them hard times from 9 to 5
