When we take our bored And embittered youth And presweeten them With their breakfast food Should we grind 'em down Like a rotten tooth? When these additives Lead to attitude? 'Cuz the kids hate power pop But they need that sugar shock So we praise the meat And we curse the bread And we're on our knees Like the good book said Then it's no surprise When they lose their heads
And we find ourselves Strangled in our beds 'Cuz the kids hate power pop But they need that sugar shock Power Pop! 'Cuz the kids hate power pop (pop!) But they need that sugar shock (shock!) The kids of today, well, they're losin' their faith (×4) (Let's rock!) The kids of today, well, they're losin' their faith (shock!) (×4)
