Look at you. Look at me
Yep it’s true, we never can agree
But when things need doing well
It takes youth and experience
To really ring the bell
You’re so wild. Oh you’re so square
You’re a child. You’re getting silver hair
But when something’s to be done
It takes youth and experience
To really fire the gun
All by ourselves, we don’t need one thing
But together, boy, have we got something
Youth rebels, age preserves
And they both get on each other’s nerves
But it cannot be tonight
When there’s something big
That we’ve got to do
It takes more than me
It takes more than you
It takes youth and experience
Marching side by side
We don’t understand the younger generation
We don’t understand the hairstyles they like
Or the clothes that they are wearing
Or transistor radios blaring
And what is the fun of the stripped down motor bike
We don’t understand the older generation
All they seem to do is sit around and fuss
They don’t try to dig our lingo
They just want TV and bingo
And we don’t understand them not understanding us
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
The truth is simple but profound
It takes all kinds of people, working together
To make this old world go ’round
You may rank, age may roar
There’s a fact that no one can ignore
When the world needs putting right
It takes youth and experience
To really win the fight
Walking alone, you might defeat us
But together and no power can beat us
You rebels, age preserves
And they both get on each other’s nerves
But it cannot be tonight
When there’s something big
That you’ve got to do
It takes more than me
It takes more than you
It takes youth and experience
To rid the world of trouble and strife
And make way for a wonderful life
