Younger Generation Lyrics

The song Younger Generation is performed by José Feliciano in the album named Legendary José Feliciano in the year 2001 .



Why must every generation think their folks are square
And no matter where their heads are, they know Mom磗 ain磘 there
'Cause I swore when I was small that I磀 remember when
I knew what磗 wrong with them, that I was smaller then

Determined to remember all the card'nal rules
Like sun showers are legal grounds for cuttin' school
I know I have forgotten maybe one or two
And I hope that I recall them all before the baby磗 due
And I know he磍l have a question or two

Like "Hey, Pop, can I go ride my zoom
It goes two hundred miles an hour suspended on balloons
And can I put a droplet of this new stuff on my tongue
And imagine frothing dragons while you sit and wreck your lungs"
And I must be permissive, understanding of the younger generation

Then I磍l know that all I磛e learned my kid a*sumes
And all my deepest worries must be his cartoons
And still I磍l try to them him all the things I磛e done
Relating to what he can do when he becomes a man
And still he磍l stick his fingers in the fan

And "Hey, Pop, my girlfriend磗 only three
She磗 got her own videophone and she磗 taking L.S.D.
And now that we磖e best friends, she wants to give a bit to me
But what磗 the matter Daddy, how come you磖e turning green?
Can it be that you can磘 live up to your dreams?"
