lyrics

Young People

Here you come now so young so beautiful
Thick hair flowin’, nose full of white snowin’
Pretty young face think you’re the brand-new star
Where’s my limousine where’s my credit card
You walk atomic, your drinks are all free
You don’t care for nothing & its all because of me
You betta watch out you betta watch your step
Drop your head in acid
I’m old and close to death
Nobody’s coming you’re on your own
You just don’t know it yet
Young people can go to hell

With ya phony life prancing straight ahead
How you ever gonna find your soul again
Feeding off your parents stealin’ everything they’ve got
You think you’re so damn special
Till you find out that you’re not
Nobody’s coming, you’re on your own
You just don’t know it
Young people can go to hell

Someone’s gotta say it, kids are too dumb
And the younger ones learn from the older ones
Off they run like beautiful gazelles 

pumpin’ out bad reproductions of themselves
Nobody’s coming, you’re on your own
You just don’t know it yet
Young people can go to hell

There you go now, all rotten teeth and one black eye
Misunderstanding this train wreck called life
Young ‘n beautiful, all you want is a cheque
You betta watch out, you betta watch your step
I’m giddy jealous, old and close to death
Out of time out of luck out of hope and out of step
Nobody’s coming, you’re on your own
Y’ just don’t know it yet
Young people can go to hell

about

The Wreckery Melbourne, Australia

At the crest of the Australian post punk era, The Wreckery played atmospheric rock with film-noir swagger & renegade attitude, carving a loyal following. Critics quickly positioned them as successors to a darkly exciting avant-garde Melbourne tradition previously marked out by The Birthday Party but creative tensions saw the band implode as they reached their peak with the Laying Down Law album. ... more
