When I’m on the street I’m walking,
Hear the people talking,
What they got to say?
Someone’s house burned down this morning,
Burned down without warning,
It was on the news today,
I could not look away,
The whole town was ablaze,
But I guess that’s kids these days,
Sargent Cox comes round a bit later,
A stern faced mediator,
With a furrow on his brow,
Sargent says somebody seen them,
Says it must have been them,
But who knows where they are now,
But we’ll find out somehow,
The whole town was ablaze,
But I guess that’s kids these days,
No one plays monopoly,
They’re sniffing glue and they’re smoking tea,
They get no opportunity to shine,
Until they’re out of time,
That stuff happens all the time now,
Kiddies like their crime now,
And nothing stays the same,
But if we can find out what is real now,
Find out how to feel now,
We’ll play a brand new game,
You know it’s such a shame,
The whole town was ablaze,
But I guess that’s kids these days,
