Youthanasia Lyrics
Who'd believe with the way things are here
We'd be going anywhere telling people
How to live?
Who'd believe we'd spend more
Shippin' drugs and guns
Than to educate our sons? Sorry but
That's what they did
I can't help but think,
Someone's foresaken you and me
Luck deserted me and the truth
Beat out my brains
Men rise on stepping stones of their
Selves to higher things
I've stepped over lots of bodies on my way
Thanks for the information don't need no
More anything
We are the damned of all the world
With saddness in our hearts
The wounded of the wars
We've been hung out to dry
You didn't want us anyway
And now we're making up our minds
You tell us how to run our lives
We run for youthanasia
This is my favorite Megadeth song
this song is from the same titled ablum released in 1994.
This can be passive, as in discontinuing an individual's life-sustaining treatment, or active, as in mercy killing - putting to death a person who, due to disease or extreme age, can no longer lead a meaningful life.
@Shamseer that's euthanasia. The song is a play on words, drawing attention to youth, who suffer the consequences of previous generations not doing shit

I personally think it's about how our generation's pretty much been thrown out to dry. Our generation's not gonna have Social Security, we're already using money we should be saving on ungodly gas prices and the generations before us really don't seem to care. As Dave said it.

Basically what motorhead said. It's about how a country going down the crapper affects the next generation.
Shamseer...you're talking about euthanasia, and we don't need a definition that has nothing to do with anything. Youthanasia is a play on the word. Motorhead is correct. Look at the album art. You whore.
lol
lol
Pretty much what Motorhead said.
But also, our parents, grandparents and other ancestors made the world what it is today (which isn't good), and they're the ones teaching us how to live, so how much hope can we really have? We can't follow the steps they dictate if we want to see any progress.

i think that the first couple lines could also be about how the US goes around telling other countries things like "oh, we're so awesome" and just causing problems, while there are already so many problems in the US itself.
amazing song youthanasia is my background
