Can't you see the man on the street how he's crying so?
Can't you see the lady on the street how she's crying so?

'Cause her age is growing
And it's not staying
Yes, the age is growing
And it's not staying

So don't run around everyday wasting time
Man, don't sit around everyday wasting your time
'Cause we are the youths, and there's a lot to be done
On this here foundation
We gotta have the young generation
So they can know what they are to do
So when they get to our position then they will understand

That their age is growing
And it's not staying
Yes, their age is growing
And it's not staying

So be generous, my people
Don't you fuss or fight
And please take care of the youths of tomorrow

'Cause age is growing
And it's not staying
Yes, their age is growing
And it's not staying

So, man, don't run around everyday wasting time
Man, don't sit around everyday wasting time
'Cause we are the youths, and there's a lot to be done
On this here foundation
We gotta have the young generation
So they can know what they are to do
So when they get to our position they will understand

That their age is growing
And it's not staying
Yes, their age is growing
And it's not staying
