They Know
The times change
The clock turns
The kids age
Wizened lesions start to burn
We march in
Determined
To usher in
Freedom from mistakes we'd learned
Had crushed you
Enslaved you
Yet we betray you
By investing inheritance
Tell us what they know
"This generation must have lost it"
Your generation's out of time
"Look what technology has cost it"
You've loaned this endless credit line
The fog clears
Disappears
I know it's fear
Causing this hostility
You know it
We know it
They know it
Soon you'll be a memory
The old ways
The new ways
There'll be no ways
If hate proceeds to permeate
You know it
We know it
They know it
So cease destruction, let's create
"This generation's weak and thin-skinned"
Your generation's got to go
"Their sensitivity is poison"
We'll poison you with old Jim Crow
"This generation kills our customs"
Your generation gave it a whirl
"They're much too different now to trust 'em"
Our generation rules this world
The clock turns
The kids age
Wizened lesions start to burn
We march in
Determined
To usher in
Freedom from mistakes we'd learned
Had crushed you
Enslaved you
Yet we betray you
By investing inheritance
Tell us what they know
"This generation must have lost it"
Your generation's out of time
"Look what technology has cost it"
You've loaned this endless credit line
The fog clears
Disappears
I know it's fear
Causing this hostility
You know it
We know it
They know it
Soon you'll be a memory
The old ways
The new ways
There'll be no ways
If hate proceeds to permeate
You know it
We know it
They know it
So cease destruction, let's create
"This generation's weak and thin-skinned"
Your generation's got to go
"Their sensitivity is poison"
We'll poison you with old Jim Crow
"This generation kills our customs"
Your generation gave it a whirl
"They're much too different now to trust 'em"
Our generation rules this world
