The youth are voting with their feet -
Such a shame that the dance-beat gets so complicated
Pretty, pretty it seems
On second glance, the look is overrated
In the lost-house there's a magic potion,
Timeless motion
Now and again now lasts forever;
Jeuness d'oree gliding the lily of pleasure
The youth are voting with their clothes -
Such a shame that the hip post is so calculated
Round and round it goes: how careless
The rapture that's overstated
In the picture last devotion, waveless ocean -
Time and again styles goes out of fashion
Jeunesse d'oree taking the heat out of passion!
Look at the kid with the golden touch,
Check out the story expression;
Look at the man with the golden arm
And the sensational lesson
Follow-my-leader's a game we can play
Till we swallow the tail without thinking
Catch the hook, tow the line -
Never mind that we're sinking!
The youth are voting themselves in
But the wheel takes a fresh spin
And they find, tomorrow,
Gaudy garments worn thin, all at best rent
And the worst are borrowed
Closing orders, fading nations, dissipation,
Time and again, time's unforgiving;
Jeunesse d'oree gilding the lily of living
Now and again, now lasts forever;
Jeunesse d'oree gilding the lily of pleasure
Cut
