Oh, woah, yeah
Woah, now
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
Today's boys and today's girls
Are the leaders in tomorrow's world
There's just one thing you better understand
The whole wide world will be left in your hands
You've got to take the pattern from the older ones
And pass it on to the next generation
So don't waste your life fighting fuss
You are living for a better purpose
Woah, now
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
I know that when you are young
Everything is just fun, fun, yeah
I also know when you're educated, yes
Then life will become more interesting
Remember, silver and gold will vanish away
But a good education will never decay, no
So, youth to youth, try not to lose your way, no
Don't lose your chance for a brighter day
Woah, now
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
Yeah now
Really, really, really, woah now
Oh, yeah, look here
Young man, this is for you
Here is what, here is what I think you should do
Make sure to get something in your brain, now
Before you get bad and wicked in bed
And to all the young ladies, dear, alright
Here is what, here is what I think you should do
Make sure you pass your academic exams, alright
Before you pass your pregnancy test
Better be conscious, conscious in your mind
Or you'll be running out of time
Woah, now
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
Young people, young young people
You've got to be responsible (Be young)
