This is NOT an analysis of a song, merely personal observations about a song that I love. Enjoy. Ian "Youth Of Today" by Amy MacDonald From Amy MacDonald's 2007 debut album, This is The Life This song reflects the generational differences which will go on forever. Written when Amy was just 15. "And we are the youth of today Change our hair in every way And we are the youth of today We'll say what we wanna say And we are the youth of today Don't care what you have to say at all" "And we are the youth of today We'll say what we wanna 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" "Youth Of Today"
Written by Amy Elizabeth Macdonald • Copyright © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc Maybe if you were some spearheaded guy I would listen to what you have to say But you're just some incapable figure Thinking you're bigger than me, but you're not Yet 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 our hair in every way And we are the youth of today We'll say what we wanna 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 it's just your one sided feelings They keep getting in my way And you don't know a single 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 our hair in every way And we are the youth of today We'll say what we wanna 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 And we are the youth of today Change our hair in every way And we are the youth of today We'll say what we wanna say And we are the youth of today Don't care what you have to say at all
