Flashing the future in everybody's face
Were chased off schoolyards and into the streets
Who rode so hard in the warm California breeze
And these kids who changed everybody's lives
On forbidden streets with rusty knives
Who got spit upon but knew they'd arrived
To wipe out and rebuild for you and I
In dried out pools of the rich and bored
Breaking through and yet completely ignored
Destroying things that can't be restored
I adore and I'm completely in awe
Of kids who kill and really go for
Drowning all the things that came before
Who broke through like they're at war
Gimme more gimme more gimme more yeah
Here they come in style to blow you away Flashing the future in everybody's face Were chased off schoolyards and into the streets Who rode so hard in the warm California breeze And these kids who changed everybody's lives On forbidden streets with rusty knives Who got spit upon but knew they'd arrived To wipe out and rebuild for you and I In dried out pools of the rich and bored Breaking through and yet completely ignored Destroying things that can't be restored I adore and I'm completely in awe Of kids who kill and really go for Drowning all the things that came before Who broke through like they're at war Gimme more gimme more gimme more yeah Explain Request ×
