The kids view the world through a box
Nobody's learned how to talk
To each other, to their mother
To the men down the street
Can't stand on our own two feet
Oversaturated celebrities
Meals flavoured artificially
Chemically made, to turn all of us gay
God, set these poor children free
Oh, you say our generation's ruined
And you say you don't know how
But if you take a look back, let down the constant attack
You'd be surprised by every generation now
The brainwash of the silver screen
Has turned your little baby's tongue so mean
She lies, she cries, forcing you to comply
To her every motherf*cking need
Oh, you say our generation's ruined
And that there's nothing you could do
But that's the very same idea that's gotten us here
You see, your generation is ruined too
Oh, you say our generation's ruined
And you say you don't know how
But if you take a look back, let down the constant attack
You'd be surprised by every generation
And you say it's not your fault
But we've been taught to think how we do
As were you, and your father, and his father's dad
Every generations been ruined too
