Future's Best Investment

Stuck in this room, so fuckin bored
Trying to save the dinosaurs and so much more
So won't you think of us, since we're thinking of you
Locked down, sacrificing what we do
Is it really too much to ask, we stop living in the past?
We've got generations worth of work to do

We are young, we are wild
You call us broken and the vile
The desperate and rejected
We're still the future's best investment

Greatness is not a nostalgic time
Do you ever think about your great grandkids or mine? Or theirs?
In this divided era, seems easier to keep on fighting
Than try to work together
Is it really too much to ask, we stop living in the past?
We've got generations worth of work to do

We are young, we are wild
You call us broken and the vile
The desperate and rejected
We're still the future's best investment

When acrimony reigns, nobody wins
It's the future who will suffer for our sins
Just like those of yesterday, that we still must pay
Every generation lift it's voice to say

We are young, we are wild
You call us broken and the vile
The desperate and rejected
We're still the future's best investment
