They
say we’re wild, they say we’re crazy;
They say we’re spoiled, and they say we’re lazy
They say we have no ambition-no will to get ahead.
They say that all we want to do is stay and lie in bed.
They say we’re stubborn and have no feeling, that
when they refuse us, we hit the ceiling.
They say that we don’t know importance of money and
we think that life is all sugar and honey.
They think we are gangsters, dropouts, jokers, draft-card
burners, and marijuana smokers.
They don’t understand us and they don’t know
why; well maybe it’s because they don’t really
try.
Maybe
they never told us when we were young the importance of
being true and strong.
Maybe we thought that they did not care when they let us
go any-and everywhere.
Maybe they never really took a time out to see what our
problems were all about. But if you looked –you would
probably see that we’re not as bas as we’re
said to be.
You’d see we have problems; the same as you and we
need some help to pull us through.
But most of the time help involves space between me and
you …
