Generate meaning
1
somewhere a pen is busy with hate tonight
2
jaded eyes and cynics bring me down
3
somewhere a kid is playing his heart out tonight
4
but he'll get nowhere with the Berkeley in-crowd
5
well put-downs are so easy
6
like a novel without a soul
7
and every executioner wears a hood
8
when it's time for heads to roll
9
well they're just like new dictators
10
trying to tell us what to love
11
well their opinion they can take and shove
12
somewhere young rebels will meet up tonight
13
somewhere skateboarders and straightedgers will unite
14
they don't need no magazine that's filled with hate and lies
15
get enough from the world around them
16
they're young but they are wise
17
but negativity's easy
18
you just fire and walk away
19
and it's the armchair general
20
who lives to fight another day
21
well their opinion they can take and shove
22
if this was 1944, they'd be pointing their guns at you
23
cause every fascist, left or right, has a fucked-up set of rules
24
but do they really think the kids are such fools?
25
Or do they even care?
