Bitter Old Man


VERSE 1
The good old days are never coming back
So why do you keep going on the attack?
Technophobic rants don’t stand a chance
Nor millennial bashing and budget slashing
The young will inherit this mother earth
No sense in letting your teary eyes burst
Why all the rage over somebody’s age?
Progression is natural, so is worldwide change

CHORUS
Bitter old man! X4

VERSE 2
Fork over the keys to your corporation
Broadcast it on every cable news station
Life is short and nothing lasts forever
Life washes away in this rainy weather
You can’t blame everything on the young
So keep ageist vitriol off of your tongue
Scream any louder and you’ll pop a lung
Your radio hits will forever be unsung

CHORUS
Bitter old man! X4

BRIDGE
We are the rebels, we are the warriors
We shout it down every single corridor
You can’t keep us down however you try
You’ve got shit running down your thigh

VERSE 3
We open our email and eat our kale
Cheer when bankers get put in jail
Save the earth for the very last whale
No mega power is too big to fail
Stereotypes, they’re your only hype
You think we’re easy pickings so ripe
Call us snowflakes, say our news is fake
Little do you know this world is ours to take

CHORUS
Bitter old man! X4
