They Might Be Giants - Youth Culture Killed My Dog lyrics

Youth culture youth culture
Youth culture youth culture

Youth culture killed my dog
And I don't think it's fair
And his suicide can be justified
By the taste makers, how they cried and cried

Bacharach and David used to
Write his favorite songs
Never would he worry
He'd just run and fetch the ball
But the night lights and my dog's life
Aren't exactly one and the same

Youth culture killed my dog
And I don't think it's fair
And the judgment made in the city of hate
Just broke his spirit so

Bacharach and David used to
Write his favorite songs
Never would he worry
He'd just run and fetch the ball
But the Hip-Hop and the white funk
Just blew away my puppy's mind

I don't understand what you did to my dog
And I don't understand what you did to my dog
I don't understand what you did to my dog
I don't understand what you did to my dog

Youth culture killed my dog
And I don't think it's fair
And his suicide can be justified
By the taste makers, how
They cried and cried, and so

Youth culture youth culture
Broke his spirit so broke his spirit so
Youth culture youth culture
Youth culture broke his spirit so
Broke his spirit so
