[Verse 1]

Want something different than our mamas and our dads

Growing up ain't easy, in a world that's going mad

Want to call music, that we can call our own

Misunderstood, up to no good, and blamed for being stoned

Holes in our stories and tattoos on our skin

Sometimes standing out's the only way we can fit in

Somewhere in the future we'll be running from our past

Well we don't know no better, we just want to make it last

[Chorus]

Kids today, young and crazy, makin' all the same mistakes

Thinking, baby, all we've got is time to waste, and hearts to break

Bending rules, there's nothing like that live forever attitude

Get caught up in the good old days until they're gone

Ain't nothing wrong with kids today

[Verse 2]

We don't listen, but we hear more than you think

Gonna learn the hard way how to love and how to drink

No we don't want to wait for anything worth waitin' for

We ain't doing nothin' that ain't been done before

[Chorus]

Kids today, young and crazy, makin' all the same mistakes

Thinking, baby, all we've got is time to waste, and hearts to break

Bending rules, there's nothing like that live forever attitude

Get caught up in the good old days until they're gone

Ain't nothing wrong with kids today

[Bridge]

Ain't nothing wrong with having fun

And running from the life we don't know's about to come

[Chorus]

Kids today, young and crazy, makin' all the same mistakes

Thinking, baby, all we've got is time to waste, and hearts to break

Bending rules, there's nothing like that live forever attitude

Get caught up in the good old days until they're gone

Ain't nothing wrong with kids today
