Too strong, uh huh, gettin' older
Ten little boys come out to play
So I know that time has passed
The arrogance of the youth
Drifting away and if you play another day
Don't get, get, get
You felt the cause
Take you down with the sound
The arrogance of the youth
They didn't stand a chance they got blown away
They didn't stand a chance they got blown away
They didn't even have their own place to stay
They didn't even have their own place to stay
He said, "Don't feel guilty, don't go crazy
You can push your luck away
And you see the rest of us as fools
Now you find that you were younger then
(Say it isn't so)
It doesn't matter how we get a groove on
(Say it isn't so)
See what it's like to live a lie
You play the Prophet like a man
You can push your luck away
Busted out your friends, you know what you got
Climb into another rhyme, designed too fast
It makes no sense in the overall master plan
Long ago, my friends, long ago
The arrogance of youth is not claptrap
Nine little boys got blown away
It doesn't matter what I say
You wanna prove something
She said, "Don't feel guilty, don't go crazy
(Say it isn't so)
Don't go crazy
Push your mike right to come along
As the fear starts to grow inside
Don't get paranoid with me"
Nothing is like you thought it was
(No, no, no, no)
From the well of deceit he has to move on
Now y'all know I will
That it was good as it was not, that's what we got
Ten little girls come out to play
Starts one thinking older
(No, no, no, no)
Because my eyes can see the truth and reality
Don't feel, feel, feel
Nine little girls got blown away
And now you realize all the lies that were otherwise
[Incomprehensible]
You think of no one but yourself
Picking up a microphone
What you had, my friend is lost
Looking back, don't ever pretend
The truth right in your lap, that's a fact, Jack
Don't get paranoid with me"
Nothing is right, everything is wrong
(Say it isn't so)
