The Kids Are Online

July 5, 2009 7:41 PM

Another in my series of punk and glam inspired songs about Web culture, this one is sort of an answer song to both "The Kids Are Alright" and "Blitzkrieg Bop."

LYRICS:
How are the kids? They're just fine
In the middle of this decline
Where are the kids? They're online now
They're looking for a way to get kicks
With downloads of a Slick Rick remix
And lists of cult films from netflix yeah

Hey ho 24 hours to blow
And you ain't dressed up and ain't noplace to go
And there ain't no jobs and ain't no dough nohow

What can you do that don't suck
And don't cost more than a few bucks
To get away from all the daft fucks yeah
What do you with all your time
In the middle of this decline
There's always something to do online now

Hey ho 24 hours to blow
And you ain't dressed up and ain't noplace to go
And there ain't no jobs and ain't no dough nohow

This ain't a world for our teens
Just the same drags and bad scenes
But there's another world on PC screens yeah
How are the kids? They're just fine
In the middle of this decline
Where are the kids? They're online now
