Younger Generation - Jose Feliciano[00:00:01]
Written by:John Benson Sebastian[00:00:02]
Why must every generation think their folks are square[00:00:16]
And no matter where their heads are they know mom's ain't there[00:00:24]
'Cause I swore when I was small that I'd remember when[00:00:32]
I knew what's wrong with them that I was smaller then[00:00:41]
Determined to remember all the cardinal rules[00:00:50]
Like sun showers are legal grounds for cuttin' school[00:00:58]
I know I have forgotten maybe one or two[00:01:05]
And I hope that I recall them all before the baby's due[00:01:13]
And I know he'll have a question or two[00:01:22]
Like hey pop can I go ride my zoom[00:01:29]
It goes two hundred miles an hour suspended on balloons[00:01:38]
And can I put a droplet of this new stuff on my tongue[00:01:46]
And imagine frothing dragons while you sit and wreck your lungs[00:01:54]
And I must be permissive understanding of the younger generation[00:02:03]
Then I'll know that all I've learned my kid assumes[00:02:18]
And all my deepest worries must be his cartoons[00:02:26]
And still I'll try to them him all the things I've done[00:02:34]
Relating to what he can do when he becomes a man[00:02:43]
And still he'll stick his fingers in the fan[00:02:51]
And hey pop my girlfriend's only three[00:02:58]
She's got her own videophone and she's taking l s d[00:03:07]
And now that we're best friends she wants to give a bit to me[00:03:15]
But what's the matter daddy how come you're turning green[00:03:23]
Can it be that you can't live up to your dreams[00:03:30]
