Elegy for the Baby Boomer in D
You took on the world and you did it with your blue jeans on
You taught us how to love and you cared about right and wrong
You were the center of the world until the next thing came along
What went wrong
You got out of the draft said you had to do what you could
So you took out a loan and put a shopping mall in the woods
I hate to admit it but the old men got you good
Understood
Save us from the bully like you did when your hair was long
Daddy was it really just about the drugs all along
In the blink of an eye a whole generation has come and gone
Please don't tell me it was really just about the drugs all along
Do you remember where you were when you first heard your favorite song
Before you got a little money and you finally learned to love the bomb
Jumping Jack Flash gonna sell you a mobile phone
Oh my God
Save us from the bully like you did when your hair was long
Daddy was it really just about the drugs all along
In the blink of an eye a whole generation has come and gone
Please don't tell me it was really just about the drugs
Save us from the bully like you did when your hair was long
Daddy was it really just about the drugs all along
In the blink of an eye a whole generation has come and gone
Please don't tell me it was really just about the drugs all along
You taught us how to love and you cared about right and wrong
You were the center of the world until the next thing came along
What went wrong
You got out of the draft said you had to do what you could
So you took out a loan and put a shopping mall in the woods
I hate to admit it but the old men got you good
Understood
Save us from the bully like you did when your hair was long
Daddy was it really just about the drugs all along
In the blink of an eye a whole generation has come and gone
Please don't tell me it was really just about the drugs all along
Do you remember where you were when you first heard your favorite song
Before you got a little money and you finally learned to love the bomb
Jumping Jack Flash gonna sell you a mobile phone
Oh my God
Save us from the bully like you did when your hair was long
Daddy was it really just about the drugs all along
In the blink of an eye a whole generation has come and gone
Please don't tell me it was really just about the drugs
Save us from the bully like you did when your hair was long
Daddy was it really just about the drugs all along
In the blink of an eye a whole generation has come and gone
Please don't tell me it was really just about the drugs all along
