I often find myself thinking of the role that "Gen Y" plays in today's society. This is a satire, so you may find that I mock pop culture a lot. So yeah.

Teenage life really rocks my socks
The mood swings are the best
The boys, hands wrapped around their cocks
While eyeing silicone breasts

The cliques that cling
The nerds left alone
The insults that sting
We're all on our own

Hollywood casts a wicked spell
On billboards with beautiful faces
Our very souls we would sell
To make it to higher places

Drunken to your satisfaction
Wild weekend parties
Obsessing over lesbian action
While popping pills like Smarties

Who cares about education
We know all we need to know
Illiteracy rampant throughout the nation
In this we reap that which we sow

It's not a good message that we send
Pretty soon we all much pay
When things come crashing to an end
A dark and dismal day


Thank you Chrissy. You helped pump this one out of me too. :]

I love it. I love the sarcasticness of it. I like stanzas 4 and 6 the best. I like the syntax in the 6th stanza. Wonderful job! flowers.gif
