When I Was Your Age

Let me tell you sonny
Let me set you straight
You kids today ain't never had it rough
Always had everything handed to you on a silver plate
You lazy brats think nothing's good enough...well
Nobody ever drove me to school when it was ninety degrees below
We had to walk butt-naked through forty miles of snow
Worked in the coal mines twenty-two hours a day for jus half a cent
Had to sell my internal organs just to pay the rent
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
Let me tell you something
You whiney little snot
There's something wrong with all you kids today
You just don't appreciate
All the things you've got
We were hungry, broke and miserable
And we liked it fine it way...heh
There was seventy-three of us livin' in a cardboard box
All I got for Christmas was a lousy bag of rocks
Every night for dinner, we had a big ol' chunk of dirt
If we were really good, we didn't get dessert
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
Didn't have no telephone, didn't have no fax machine
All we had was a couple of cans and a crummy piece of string
Didn't have no swimming pool when I was just a lad
Our neighbor's septic tank was the closest thing we had
Didn't have no dental floss, had to use old rusty nails
Didn't have Nintendo, we just poured salt on snails
Didn't have no waterbed, had to sleep on broken glass
Didn't have a lawnmower, we used our teeth to cut the grass!
What's the matter now sonny?
You say you don't believe this junk?
You think my story's wearing kind of thin
I'll tell you one thing- I never was such a disrespectful punk
Back in my time, we had a thing called discipline!
My dad would whip us every night 'til a quarter after twelve
Then he'd get too tired, and he'd make us whip ourselves
Then he'd chop me into pieces, and play frisbee with my brain
And let me tell you junior, you never heard me complain
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
When I was your age
