Lyric What s The Matter With Parents Today?

Mom and dad, how d ya get so rad, when exactly did you get so hip
Wearing teenage clothes you re always coming to my shows
And telling me that I should mellow out

It s absurd, you re singing every word.
You re not supposed to like my bands, things I like you don t understand
So please put down that rum and coke, that s no behavior for old folks

Dad and mom, what planet are you from
And what convinced you to pack up and leave
Doin drugs and asking me for hugs, what s the matter with parents today

Not again, when will it end
Dads dressing like Motley Crue and why is moms hair dyed bright blue
There staying out till 2 or 3 and then having sex publicly
I thought the apple fell far from the tree

Mom and dad I think you ought, to quit smoking so much pot
And hanging with my friends
Laying round on the couch, with my Misfits records out
Softly banging their heads

Maybe it s just a passing phase
What s the matter with my parents these days
