You think life was perfect but now we live in hell
you blame the media, but that ain't all
and they're not the ones that raised your kids
you blame music, but it's so much more
if you don't like what you hear then turn it off
you whoever you are, wake up man, it's everyone's fault
i don't believe in the good old days (x4)
you talk about the good old days like everything was fine
but stop, don't think that way, we've got problems now like yesterday
you'd better stop, and live for today
instead of complaining, go and make a change
you whoever you are, wake up man, it's everyone's fault
i don't believe in the good old days (x4)
don't think we're not aware of the problems we face today
its bad now and it was bad before,
and is it getting worse? hell, i don't know
but don't lose any hope, cause i don't wanna live without looking up
and you can sit there, and place the blame, me i'm gonna work
for a positive change, yeah!
i don't believe in the good old days (x4)
