《The Other Generation(From ’Flower Drum Song’)(Reprise)》歌词

[00:00:03] Well the more I see of grownups

[00:00:06] The less I want to grow

[00:00:08] The more I see what they have learned

[00:00:10] The less I want to know

[00:00:12] And yet we've got to all grow up

[00:00:14] There's no place else to go

[00:00:17] I wonder why we're all so poor

[00:00:19] And they've got all the dough

[00:00:24] What are we going to do about

[00:00:26] The other generation

[00:00:29] How will ever communicate

[00:00:31] Without communication

[00:00:33] When we are using words the modern way

[00:00:38] They're much too big to try to dig

[00:00:40] The colorful things we say

[00:00:42] If we could take over the training of

[00:00:45] The other generation

[00:00:47] We know we could improve them quite a lot

[00:00:52] But they will never let us

[00:00:54] They stay the way they met us

[00:00:56] And so we're simply stuck with

[00:00:58] What we've got you can't improve them

[00:01:01] The kids are simply stuck with what they've got

[00:01:10] What are we going to do about

[00:01:12] The other generation

[00:01:15] How are we going to stop them when

[00:01:17] They start an explanation

[00:01:19] Of what is used to mean to be a kid

[00:01:24] The clean and wholesome fun they had

[00:01:26] The innocent things they did

[00:01:29] They all had a wonderful childhood in

[00:01:31] The other generation

[00:01:33] The games they played were bright and gay and loud

[00:01:38] They used to shout red rover

[00:01:40] Red rover please come over

[00:01:42] They must have been an awful droopy crowd

[00:01:45] When they were younger

[00:01:47] They must have been an awful droopy crowd
