My second parody. Disclaimer: I don't own The Outsiders or this song
When we were young our future was so bright
The old neighborhood was so alive
And every greaser on the whole damn street
Was gonna make it big and not be beat
Now our neighborhood's cracked and torn
The greasers are grown up but their lives are worn
How can one little street
Swallow so many lives
Chances blown
Nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard
Hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams
(Whoa!)
Soda had a chance, well he really did
Instead he dropped out and got a job
Two-Bit still lives at home cause he's got no job
He just dates girls and drinks a lot of beer
Dally committed suicide
Johnny burned and died
What the hell is going on
The cruelest dream, reality
Chances blown
Nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard
Hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams
Chances blown
Nothing's free
Longing for what used to be
Still it's hard
Hard to see
Fragile lives, shattered dreams
