"Kids These Days" lyrics

Oh, kids these days, they don't have respect
They just talk on those cellphones and listen to their tape cassettes
It's what that teacher said with disgust in every breath
His students listened carelessly, they were easily unimpressed (Oh!)

He said it with such conviction, whether truth or fiction
And it went 'round and 'round
They'd reinvent the wheel, watch it spin and marvel
At the breakthrough they had found

Another war to end all wars, depressions are no more
Gravity works on occasion, it won't always bring you to the floor
It's a Spanish questionnaire, conquest through love affair
A trillion here or there, I'm sure it'll work with a little prayer (Oh!)

He said it with such conviction, whether truth or fiction
And it went 'round and 'round
They'd reinvent the wheel, watch it spin and marvel
At the breakthrough they had found
They'd reinvent the wheel, watch it spin and marvel
At the breakthrough they had found

He said it with such conviction, whether truth or fiction
And it went around and 'round
They'd reinvent the wheel, watch it spin and marvel
At the breakthrough they had found
They'd reinvent the wheel, watch it spin and marvel
At the breakthrough they had found
