The Lyrics

a million young mullets, are still around this world
on a group of young people, too stupid to be heard
this future generation, are all hidin from the world
they'll never get an "a" for understanding

chicken out...going to work on Monday
chicken out...embarrasing your family
chicken out...they volunteer the bills to be paid
to cut your hair, the offer is long standing
so chicken out.. when will that hair go?
chicken out.. trim your head, and your life grows
chicken out ...what's the point, what are you hiding you from?
I just gotta say I don't understand it..

chicken out..don't say hello to the neighbours
chicken out....now they question your behaviour
chicken out...wonderin out loud if you wanna be a guy
just to tell yourself the seventies ain't over..

chicken out... where did your brain go?
chicken out, god go and get a big 'fro
chicken out, look like a beagle all week long,
is this all that you've learned be a hippie?

a million young mullets, are still around this world
on a group of young people, too stupid to be heard
this future generation, are all hidin from the world
they'll never get an "a" for understanding
maybe they'll never get an "a" for understanding
maybe they'll never get an "a" for understanding
maybe they'll never get an "a" for understanding
maybe they'll never get an "a" for understanding
