[Verse 1]
Soon he'll have to start answering me
And if its words that bring us peace
'Til I found a note
Alone
"That I don't think I could help you write
A word is worth the one who writes the song
Who rides along"
Oh-woah
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
Instead of screaming the youth is calling
And you all hate the words
I'm thinking that you should join in
And we'll all sing a verse in honor of youth
[Verse 2]
I'm sick of all the talk and taunts
Saying our words don't reach the heart
Well this hearts anew to choose
Now a wind has come and swept the place
Its drained our cups and changed the way we write
The way we hide
Oh-woah
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
Instead of screaming the youth is calling
And you all hate the words
I'm thinking that you should join in
And we'll all sing a verse in honor of youth
[Verse 3]
I'm still confused how gentleman callers think they owe you
When you just get smaller
I'll teach 'em all if you can say
"Father, we're on our own with no mean to bother"
[Chorus]
Instead of screaming the youth is calling
And you all hate the words
I'm thinking that you should join in
And we'll all sing a verse in honor of youth
