Bio

Lyrics

Youth is wasted on the young
Is wasted on the young
Is wasted on the young

There they sit
Begging for dollars as they protest
While on the street blandly playing chess
Apparently they’ll never confess

Demographics
Say I’m too old
Too old to buy your products
They say I’m too old

Youth is wasted on the young
Is wasted on the young
Is wasted on the young

Young may say
My mind is such a blather
What’s the frequency Kenneth
My words are such a mess

So, youth
You’re wonderin’ what happened to this song
You thought you’d get better billing
If you were youth
If you were youth
If you were youth
