Redave - Generation X Lyrics

We are the Generation X working hard or trying our best
To keep it real with debts and everything
Living our lives from day-to-day, hoping a chance will come our way
But most of us know we haven't a hope to win
We're Generation X, We're Generation X, We're Generation X, We're Generation X

We are the Generation X, cos Generation W failed the test
And sold out Generation V who won the war
State-run services, who needed them? W chose the Battle of the Yen
And took their chance with the Neo-liberal Whore
Generation W, Generation X, Generation Y is coming next

We're the Generation X they say, but Generation Y is growing today
Why no money, why no decent jobs
"Socialism's dead, hurray!" they said, but now our generation is paying instead
And people are dying for a slice of bread...... or God

Generation X, living the Lie, Generation X becomes Generation Y
Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why
Aaah, Aaah Aaah, Aaah, Aaah Aaah, Aaah, Aaah Aaah, Aaah, Aaah Aaah
Why? Why? Why? Why

We're the Generation X turned Y, will little Generation Z ask us why
We didn't see what lay behind the door
A world controlled by just a few, who do not hear your point of view
A world that's torn apart by greed and war
Generation X, Generation X, we're Generation X, Generation Why
