My Generation Songtext
von Patti Smith

Anyway we′re ready, now were ready
We'll just edit that section out of human existence
So like if you′ve taped this and you're gonna bootleg it will you cut that area out
Thank you very much

People try to put us down
(Talkin' ′bout my generation)
Just because I get around
(Talkin′ 'bout my generation)
Well I don′t need their fuckin' shit
(Talkin′ 'bout my generation)
Hope I live because of it
(Talkin′ 'bout my generation)

My Generation, baby
My Generation, baby


Why don't you just fade away
(Talkin′ ′bout my generation)
Or gotta dig what im gonna say
(Talkin' ′bout my generation)
Not locked in for some new sensation
(Talkin' ′bout my generation)
Just talkin' ′bout my generation
(Talkin' 'bout my generation)

My generation, baby
My generation, baby

My Generation baby
My Generation baby

Not trying to put us down
(Talkin′ ′bout my generation)
Just because I get around
(Talkin' ′bout my generation)
Man they seem seem awful cool
(Talkin' ′bout my generation)
Not gonna live before i go home
(Talkin' ′bout my generation)

My generation, baby
My generation, baby
My generation, baby


Not trying to put us down
(Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because i get around
(Talkin′ ′bout my generation)
I'm not trying to start some new sensation
(Talkin′ 'bout my generation)
Just talkin′ about my generation
(Talkin' ′bout my generation)

My generation, baby
My generation, baby

My generation we had dreams, we had dreams, man
And we fucking created George Bush
New generations rise up
Rise up, take the streets
Make change the world is yours, change it, change it
