lyrics

They're the brainwashed generation you say
They got it fucking easy not like in my day
We never used to eat and we always got beat
And we did as we’re told and we knew our place
Their face is always in your phone you moan
And theyre always on the internet
Why can’t they get real friends just like we had
Instead of fb and instagram
Why don’t they get out like back in my day
Instead of sitting in the dark playing video games
We never used to sit texting all our friends
And we sat still at school till the lesson ends

They're the useless generation you shout
They got no fucking clue what life is all about
Brainwashed with tv and social media
We had to get it all from encyclopaedia
We didn't research we read the papers back then
we believed every word that the government said
We never questioned adults and we did as we're told
Cos our mother was vacant and our father was cold
We never complained we were thankful for it all
A man was a man and a fool was a fool
We only had two channels on our portable TV
And we wore the same pants for over a week

All you old fuckers when you gonna learn
Your childhood weren't the best you were taking your turn
Just because you did it doesn't mean it was great
Doesn't mean the young have to follow your fate
You got your information from your jaded education
So who is the real brainwashed generation
With your carefully edited history books
And your hate and your rage and your dirty fucking looks
Time to get a grip cos things seldom stay the same
Every generation needs to find its own way
Neither one is better but people need to grow
Time to get the fuck off your high and mighty throne
