Young Man - Styx

People say with age there comes experience

But as soon as you are born you start to die

Older men are chosen to speak wisely

But call the child to the sacrificial rite

Who can we get to win the fight?

Young man!

Who can we get to make love all night?

Young man!

Who do we send away to die?

Young man!

I heard a lonely woman cry for a

Young man!

The fire bombs in distant lands are burning

Jarring every synapse in your soul

Life and death are a meaningless profession

Tomorrow brings a horror yet untold

Who can we get to win the fight?

Young man!

Who can we get to make love all night?

Young man!

Who do we send away to die?

Young man!

I heard a lonely woman cry for a

Young man!

Young man!

Young man!

Come home my son

We’ll give you a rest

Welcome my son

We’ll give you the best

Time’s stowaway

The young man

Short are the days

Of the young man

Young man!

Young man!
