Weird Al Yankovich - When i was your age

Izvajalec besedila pesmi je Weird Al Yankovich.

Let me tell you sonny, let me set you straight,
You kids today aint never had it rough.
Always had everything handed to you on a silver plate,
You lazy brats aint nothing good enough.
Well, nobody ever drove me to school when it was 90 degrees below,
Had to walk but naked, through forty miles of snow,
Worked in the coal mine 22 hours a day for just half a cent,
Had to sell my internal organs, just to pay the rent,
CHORUS
When I was your age, When I was you age,
When I was your age, When I was you age,
Let me tell you something, you whiny little snot,
Theres something wrong with all you kids today,
You don't appreciate all the things you got,
We were hungry, broke and miserable and we like it fine that way.
There were 73 of us living in a cardboard box,
All we got got Christmas, was a lousy bag of rocks,
Every night for dinner we had a big old chunk of dirt,
If we were really good, we didn't get desert.
CHORUS
Didn't have no telephone, didn't have no fax machine,
All we had was couple cans and a crumby piece of string,
Didn't have no swimming pool when I was just a lad,
Our neighbours 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 we had to sleep on broken glass,
Didn't have no lawnmower we used our teethe to cut the grass,
Whats the matter now sonny, you say you don't believe this junk,
You say my story's wearing kind of thin?
I'll tell you one thing, I never was such a disrespectfull punk,
Back in my day, we had a thing called disapline
Dad would whoop us every night till a quarter after twelve,
Then he'd get too tired, and make us whoop ourselves,
Then he'd chop me into pieces and play frisbe with my brain,
Let me tell ya junior, you never heard me complain,
CHORUS
