Generation
Grandpa wakes up at noon
He's wearing pyjamas in the daytime
And Grandma gets so confused
Who knows what's going on in her mind
And I fear it will be my turn soon
Wave goodbye to my great expectations
I'm growing up what else can I do
Generation after generation
And my mother's got lines on her face
Who knows where they came from
And dad's hair is turning grey
I think they know that time has changed them
And I wonder if they're afraid
To board the train and leave the station
Cause one day they'll pass away
Generation after generation
Ah na na na na na na
Generation after generation
Ah na na na na na na
Generation after generation
And last night I called a friend
Lucy left him now he's trying to get sober
But I fear he'll be drunk again
When his thoughts turn dark and his world Gets colder
And we talked till break of day
When idle words turn to speculation
My friend why are we so afraid he says
Generation after generation
And I can't say I disagree
It's a question for the ages
When we go do we really leave
Generation after generation
Ah na na na na na na
Generation after generation
Ah na na na na na na
Generation after generation
Ah na na na na na na
Ah na na na na na na
Ah na na na na na na
Ah na na na na na na

Ah na na na na na na
Generation after generation
Ah na na na na na na
Ah na na na na na na
Ah na na na na na na
Ah na na na na na na
