Young Conservatives

Have you heard the word?

The revolution's over

Now the anger's disappeared

And the rebels are much older

And the schools and universities

Are turning out a brand new breed of young conservatives

Get yourself a brand new scene

Keep your collars white and clean

It's time to come and join the young conservatives

Revolution used to be cool

But now it's out of fashion

Politeness is the rule

And not an angry young man's passion

And they've used up all the alternatives

And they're rushing down the street to join

The young conservatives

Conservatives

Ban the bomb, oh how contemporary

In your parents' car

Another chip off the block, is that all that you are?

Look at all the young conservatives

Hanging out in the bars

It's got to stop before it goes too fa-fa-fa-fa-far

Get yourself some new attire

Set your sights a little higher

You're going to join the young conservatives

The establishment is winning

Now the battle's nearly won

The rebels are conforming

See the father, now the sons

All the urgency and energy

Have turned into complacency

Now the schools and universities are turning out a

Brand new breed of young conservatives

Conservatives

Rebel, rebel found a cause

Now it's Hampstead not East End

And now he's such a well respected man

The only action that you see

Is in the Sunday Times

Content to sit in bed and read between the lines

Rebel, rebel join the young conservatives

Be a devil join the new conservatives

It's a victory for order

Now they've beaten everyone

The rebels are too old now

And the young just want to be young

All the urgency and energy

Have turned into complacency

Now the schools and universities are turning out a

Brand new breed of young conservatives

Conservatives

Look at all the young conservatives
