lyrics

Shout it out for Generation X,
Shout it out for the X generation (repeat)

Verse 1:
We can stand on our own,
On our own two feet,
Don’t need adoring crowds,
At some fancy meet and greet,

By ourselves we can,
In solitude we thrive,
The latchkey generation,
As you can see we survived.

Verse 2:
If we want we can dance,
We’ve left our friends behind,
At least we had some Sesame Street,
To blow our cultural minds,

We wandered the streets by day,
Friday night, roller disco Stardust,
Hours in our bedrooms,
Atari, societal disgust.

Verse 3:
We are ironic the media drones,
I guess it could be true,
We’re not too large in number,
Affecting millions with so few,

After we brought you Google,
We addicted the world to YouTube,
It’s okay if you don’t trust us,
We never trusted you.

Verse 4:
In public we’re Molly Ringwald,
Or the Fox, Michael J.,
Heather Mooney’s in our Shadows,
Darlene Connor seize the day.
