《Younger Generation》歌词

[00:00:00] Younger Generation - The Lovin' Spoonful

[00:00:06] Why must every generation think

[00:00:09] Their folks are square

[00:00:12] And no matter where their heads

[00:00:14] Are they know Mom's aint there

[00:00:18] Cause I swore when I was small

[00:00:21] That I'd remember when

[00:00:24] I knew what's wrong with them

[00:00:26] That I was smaller than

[00:00:33] Determined to remember

[00:00:36] All the cardinal rules

[00:00:39] Like sun showers are legal grounds

[00:00:42] For cutting school

[00:00:45] I know I have forgotten maybe one or two

[00:00:51] And I hope that I recall

[00:00:53] Them all before the baby's due

[00:00:57] And I know he'll have a question or two

[00:01:03] Like "Hey pop can I go ride my zoom

[00:01:09] It goes two hundred miles per

[00:01:11] Hour suspended on balloons

[00:01:15] And can I put a droplet of

[00:01:18] This new stuff on my tongue

[00:01:21] And imagine frothing dragons

[00:01:24] While you sit and wreck your lungs "

[00:01:27] And I must be permissive

[00:01:29] Understanding of the younger generation

[00:01:38] And then I'll know that all

[00:01:40] I've learned my kid assumes

[00:01:44] And all my deepest worries must be his cartoons

[00:01:50] And still I'll try to tell him

[00:01:52] All the things I've done

[00:01:56] Relating to what he can do

[00:01:59] When he becomes a man

[00:02:02] And still he'll stick his fingers in the fan

[00:02:08] And "Hey pop my girlfriend's only 3

[00:02:13] She's got her own videophone

[00:02:16] And she's a taking lsd

[00:02:19] And now that we're best friends

[00:02:22] She wants to give a bit to me

[00:02:26] And what's the matter daddy

[00:02:28] How come you're turning green

[00:02:31] Can it be that you can't live up to your dreams "
