Here come the kids onto the streets
The sleeping giant is on his feet
They've got tech rhythm and cyber souls
And no allegiance to Rock and Roll
If you haven't seen them
Open your eyes, you will
They're feeling bored
And they've got no time to kill
They don't give a damned about your battle lines
Ten year plans or grand designs
Their minds aren't messed up on the drugs
Give them orders and they just shrug
If you haven't heard them
Open your ears, you will
They're feeling pissed
And they've got no time to kill
Just when we thought
That everything was lost
They have no patience for thin excuse
We'll see how short is the burning fuse
The world we hand them is all worn out
Who can blame them if they shout us down
If you haven't met them
Look around, you will
They're children now
And they've got no time to kill
