Wasting Away Lyrics

intro: A E G D A G A x2
The kids today they got
nothing to say they got
nothing to say because they
taught em that way they wanna
watch em grow old put em in
their grave til they're gone
They mess with their hearts and they
mess with their minds and they
plug up their ears and then they
make em go blind til they
walk down the street and they
cant tell what time it is
Chorus:
you see em standing in line
you watch em goin insane
because they're wasting their time
how they're waiting in vein
this is the way it should be
you were born to be free
so why you wasting away
why you wasting away
(Chorus)
teachers today they got
nothin to say they got
nothin to say because they
taught em that way they only
do what they're told so they can
get their pay and go home
they walk down the street with their
hearts in their hands and they
grow up to fast and then they
can't understand what its
like to be a woman or
mabey a man cause its wrong
you watch em standin in line
you see em goin insane
because they're wasting their time
while they're waiting in vein
this is the way it should be
you were born to be free
so why you wasting away
why you wasting away
you were born to be free
why you wasting away
