Check out "The Kids Aren’t Alright via The Offspring" at FiercePoet.com

I don’t know why it is but I’ve gravitated back towards The Offspring here lately.  The new Rock 105.5 here in Birmingham plays a good bit of the older Offspring and I’ve recently picked up their hits album. This song for some reason rises to the top in my mind.  It says a lot in its short number of words.  At least to me… When we were young the future was so bright The old neighborhood was so alive And every kid on the whole damn street Was gonna make it big and not be beat Now the neighborhood‘s cracked and torn The kids are grown up but their lives are worn How can one little street Swallow so many lives Chances thrown Nothing‘s free Longing for what used to be Still it‘s hard Hard to see Fragile lives, shattered dreams Jamie had a chance, well she really did Instead she dropped out and had a couple of kids Mark still lives at home cause he‘s got no job He just plays guitar and smokes a lot of pot Jay committed suicide Brandon OD‘d and died What the hell is going on The cruelest dream, reality http://www.fiercepoet.com/index.php/497/
