You kids get off my lawn!

"You kids get off my lawn!" is an American expression of the late 20th century and early 21st century. Slight variations including "Get off my lawn!" "Get off my damn lawn!" and "You kids get out of my yard!" are common. This phrase presents the supposed reaction of a stereotypical elderly homeowner confronting boisterous children or heedless teens entering or crossing their property. Today, the phrase has been expanded to mock any sort of complaint, particularly those of older people regarding the young.
