The Offspring - The Kids Aren't Alright

When we were young the future was so bright (whoa)
The old company was so alive (whoa)
And every kid sittin in their seat (whoa)
was gonna make it big, join with the elite.

Now the company's filled with scorn (whoa)
The kids are grown up but their lives are worn (whoa)
How can one company
Swallow so many lives?

Chorus:
Chances thrown, nothing's free
Longing for, used to be
Still it's hard, hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams

Go!

Jamie had a chance, well she really did (whoa)
Instead she dropped out, one the company rid (whoa)
Mark still lives at home and he hates his job (whoa)
He just plays guitar, smokes a lot of pot

Jay's career began to slide (whoa)
Brandon looks tired and fried (whoa)
What the hell is going on?
Cruellest dream, this company

Chances thrown, nothing's free
Longing for, used to be
Still it's hard, hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams

Go!

Chances thrown, nothing's free
Longing for, used to be
Still it's hard, hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams
