The Kids Aren't Alright - The Offspring

Am

When we were young the future was so bright (Woah-oh!)

The old neighborhood was so alive (Woah-oh!)

And every kid on the whole damn street (Woah-oh!)

Was gonna make it big and not be beat

Now the neighborhood's cracked and torn (Woah-oh!)

The kids are grown up but their lives are worn (Woah-oh!)

How can one little street

Swallow so many lives

Am

Jamie had a chance, well she really did (Woah-oh!

Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids (Woah-oh!)

Mark still lives at home cause he's got no job

Just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot

Jay committed suicide (Woah-oh!)

Brandon OD'd and died (Woah-oh!)

What the hell is going on

cruelest dream, reality

Am
