Whats the matter with kids today

There's something wrong with the kids in my neighborhood
They always listen to your mom
They disregard civil disobedience
They'd rather do what they're told

They don't drink, or fuck, or fight (they don't start fights)
They sit home, and read, expand their minds

There's something wrong with the kids in my cul de sac
They're always going to church
They dress well and they're speaking articulate
They show each other respect

They're never late, don't smoke or break rules (they don't break rules)
They eat right, they study hard, they like school

Que pasa con los niños ahora?

Hay algo malo con los niños de mi barrio
Siempre escuchan a tu mamá
Hacen caso omiso de desobediencia civil
Prefieren hacer lo que se les dice

No beban o luchen (no empiezan peleas)
Se sientan en casa a leer, a ampliar sus mentes

Hay algo malo con los niños de mi calle sin salida
Siempre van a la iglesia
Se visten bien y están hablando articulado
Muestran c otro respecto

Nunca se meten tarde, no fuman o rompen las reglas (que no rompen las reglas)
Comen bien, estudianmucho, les gusta la escuela
