He knows he'll be alone tonight
While contemplating, 'What can I do?'
Lack of hope leaves him feeling violent
Its not that he's looking for a fight, it's just...
He don't know where to turn

More stress than help, from home and school
And on the streets his life's out of control...

Chorus
Angry Young and Poor
Angry Young and Pissed
Angry and no one cares

She never even had a chance
Mental, sexual, physical violence
Not once she heard an encouraging word
Just the phase, 'You better shut up!' and, 'You're going no where!'

Her sad stories, all left untold
And so her life became something, so out of control...

Chorus
Angry Young and Poor
Angry Young and Pissed
Angry and no one cares
Don't know where to turn
Don't know what to do...

Politicians talk it up, about their love, for the USA's youth
But when it comes time to put up, their rhetoric falls back on every excuse
Every excuse, every excuse...

Chorus
