Kids

(Kids) I don't know what's wrong with these kids today
(Kids) Who can understand anything they say?
(Kids) They are disobedient, disrespectful oafs
Noisy, crazy, sloppy, lazy, loafers
(And why do they have to start these kids?)

You can talk and talk 'til your face is blue
(Kids) But they still do just what they want to do
Why can't they be like we were?
Perfect in every way
What's the matter with kids today?

Kids (I don't know what's wrong with these kids today)
And those kids (Who can understand anything they say?)
Oh, kids (They are disobedient, disrespectful oafs)
(Noisy, crazy, sloppy, lazy, loafers)
Why are they so dreadful kids? (They are just impossible to control)
Kids (With their awful clothes and their rock and roll)
(Why can't they be like we were?)
(Perfect in every way?)
(What's the matter with kids today?)

(Kids) I don't know what's wrong with these kids today

(Kids) Even I don't understand what they say
(Kids) (They are so ridiculous and so immature)
(I don't see why anybody wants them)
(Why are they so dreadful kids?)
What the devil's wrong with these kids today?
(Kids) Who could guess that they would turn out that way?
Why can't they be like we were?
Perfect in every way

What's the matter with kids?
(Oh, what's the matter with kids?)
Yeah, what's the matter with kids today?
(Those kids)
