Every generation gets fooled again And every generation is to blame And its no good saying its not in your name 'cause it is in your name And this generation is the same And this generation is to blame And I'm sorry that I can't join in any more But I've been let down : too many times before Oh yeah we mean it We hate the kids So dance dance dance to the radio tonight I wanted to believe in rock'n'roll stars I wanted to believe in contemporary art I wanted to aspire to a higher path But there's no higher path It was ever thus, and it was ever you And it's ever us because we'll do it too And we're sorry to the all the disinherited meek, and We're sorry for this con-trick that we play on the people Oh yeah we mean it We hate the kids So dance dance dance to the radio tonight And nobody ever comes alive And the journalists clamour round glamour like flies And boys who should know better grin and get high With fat men who once met the MC5 And no one discusses what they don't understand And no one does anything to harm the brand And this gift is an illusion, this isn't hard Absolutely anyone can play the fucking guitar Oh yeah we mean it We hate the kids Useless children genuflecting To the idols who exploit them Open mouthed and arsed expecting Some god to anoint them Dance Dance Dance to this radio tonight And there's always a monk to get set on fire And there's always a crackhead charismatic liar And there's always a depth to which you can aspire And there's always a teenager due to expire Pop had a beginning, it grew and was tended Now it is rotten. Let it be ended. Let every hopeless case that every drummer befriended, Every seven-inch that every student intended Every groupie and ligger and identity seeker Every druggy and drinker and every loudspeaker Be done with, be piled up, tossed, set alight No more music, thank you, goodnight. |
