Lyrics

(Ooo, ooo)
(Ooo, ooo)
We're angry and have every right to be
Tell us to sit down, say we complain too loud
"It doesn't matter 'cause you got a silver platter
Compared to us", our best never enough
You had it hard, I'm sure you did in some ways
But things aren't the same as in 1988
Can't admit you had an easier play at the game
Keep insisting that it's us that changed
Why are we so depressed?
Contagious hopelessness
You robbed us of a promised future
Gave everything our best
Flying colors, every test
You robbed us of a promised future
Student loans, rising cost of rent and homes
But yet the wages, the same after ages
Tell us to work for years, put in blood sweat and tears
We'll make it then, but that road's a dead-end
You had it hard, I'm sure you did in some ways
But let's look together at the inflation rates
Say "it's relative" when it's a completely different game
You're insisting that nothing's changed
(And nothing's the same)
Why are we so depressed?
Contagious hopelessness
You robbed us of a promised future
Gave everything our best
Flying colors, every test
You robbed us of a promised future
Why do we have regrets?
Did what we were told and yet
You robbed us of a promised future
Followed the path you set
We're getting less and less
You robbed us of a promised future
We don't have any hope of it getting better
We look ahead, see we'll have to work forever
For just a taste of what you said we'd have
If we followed your path
(And that's why we're mad)
Why are we so depressed?
Contagious hopelessness
You robbed us of a promised future
Gave everything our best
Flying colors, every test
You robbed us of a promised future
Why do we have regrets?
Did what we were told and yet
You robbed us of a promised future
Followed the path you set
We're getting less and less
You robbed us of a promised future
