E A B
I'm gonna pack up my troubles in my old kit-bag, I'm gonna run a mile from here
E A B
'Cos the ASBO generation make this a terror nation full of loathing and fear
A
All the bleary-eyed boys getting high on the low street
E
While the girls lift clothes down the high street and they say,
A B Cm
"Yeah I know, I know it's wrong but I can't be bothered to pay,
B A
I got the money but I need it for my dealer today."
B
And her friends are all the same and they know it's not right
Cm B
But they were promised more from this life
E A
And they will steal and they will fight
B
Because there's nothing for the kids to do today
E A
And they will haunt the streets at night
B
Because there's nothing for the kids to do today
E A B
Shaun has an ASBO, he's only fourteen, he's tired and he's bored with the local police
E A
"They're pricks," he says, "I didn't get a second chance,
B
They didn't ask why I did it"
A
The pigs p 'n' c'in for puttin up his hood
E
and paedophiles playing his neck of the woods,
A B
Cm
He's got no safety in numbers, his ASBO won't allow him to be hanging around in gangs
B A
What is he to do? He's been kicked out of school
B
What a way to fix a fool, we are failing our youth
Cm B
Parents and governors can you handle the truth?
E A
And they will steal and they will fight
B
Because there's nothing for the kids to do today
E A
And they will haunt the streets at night
B
Because there's nothing for the kids to do today
There's nothing for the kids to do
E A
Who's to blame? The mainstream media?
B
Our rulers and idols get greedier and seedier
E A
They're an embarrassment, they should be shamed
B
For misguiding our youth, they're the ones to blame
A B A
E
They sit back and watch the evil grow from the youth club ruins where the kids used to go
A B
Take parts of Salford in Manchester, dying on its feet
Cm B
While the players at United get a hundred grand a week
E
The kids love them anyway, it don't make sense
A
When you have a go at me for the sake of fifty pence
Cm B E
A
Especially when some of you so called "poor kids" have got the money for a digital camcorder
B
And the time to film a girl whilst you spit-roast her
E A
You hang about the park but you don't play football
B
You trouble me for money 'cos you've got to make a drug call (?)
A E
A B
You've got time, you've got money but you wrap it in a joint 'cos you don't see the
in using your time for making your
Cm
dreams come true
B A
You're all too busy trying to lose our respect for you
Why're you proud to be rude?
B
You're just trying to be cool in front of your mates
Cm B
That's all that really matters when you're living in hate
E A
And they will steal and they will fight
B
Because there's nothing for the kids to do today
E A
And they will haunt the streets at night
B
Because there's nothing for the kids to do today
A B
Why do you wanna grow up, why do you wanna grow so fast and throw your youth away?
A B
Don't throw your youth away and don't let me hear you say
E
That there's nothing for the kids to do today
There's plenty for the kids to do today
Cm
There's so much for the kids to do
