the generational fight song - 2190 lyrics
listen here you little nincomp**p
i tell you a story about a little campfire
i had in the summer of ‘69
i was little
eeny weeny, kid
and you didn’t know my name
because you weren’t born
you weren’t even a sperm, aha
we boomers were better than you, aha
we invented our technologies, that you do
the internet? i don’t know what’s that
but we created it, so you must know
all you little
you always think you always know everything
old radio, old telеvisions
old landlines, old blah blah blah blah
i don’t know what you’re talking about
you see
in the timе we were born, that was modern
i don’t know what you’re going about
but we were better than you
we have more experience, more than you could ever have
i mean you will be alive in the year 2070
i will be dead
or probably cremated
i don’t know about you but i bet you’re pretty stupid
remember the greats like the beatles, elvis
do you know who they are
oh, i bet you don’t
did you even go to woodstock
do watch those documentaries
well i’ll tell you something
documentaries are priceless
grandpa, do you know what priceless means
i mean for goodness sake
how dumb can you be
listen, grandpa, sit down, please
i’m gonna tell you a story of the summer of 2009
see grandpa, i know that you have more experience than me
and you all think that vinyl records are better than anything
oh for goodness sake, we have telephones
what do you have, some old landline
cut it
get it
please get it, grandpa
get with the times’ grandpa
stop reading the paper
we have telephones
come on
no, not telephones, we have phones
phones! phones, mobile phones
we carry them in our pocket
while you have to plug them in the wall
mp3s, let’s talk about that
that was over 10 years ago
we don’t keep them like you do with your silly old, rotary phones
we have them in a drawer
while you have them on the display wall
get with the times
get with the times
please, get with the times, grandpa
hey! no
let me tell you another thing
i know that you guys invented the internet
but what! let me tell you something
who was born into it
see? you don’t have the answer to that
it was us, grandpa, it was us
i bet you just use it for facebook and candy crush
i mean come on
stop complaining about our generation
what did your generation do
you had racism, world wars
and what do we have
practically nothing
other than 2020, 2020 sucked
but whatever
come on grandpa, please
don’t
oh that’s where you get it wrong, little kid
you see you think we are dumber than you
well, let me tell you something
who is the oldest one here
i’m a baby boomer, and you are a millennial
grandpa, go to the internet
we are not millennials, we are generation z
get with the point already
how can you be so stupid at the same time?
i mean grandma’s better than you
because she brings cookies
young man, i used to play in the construction sites
almost freaked my feet with it
i was braver than you could ever be
i mean come on
you won’t even dare
you will just stay in your windows
and look at it
ok! now let me tell you something
you say that i’m not brave enough to do that
i would
but
as i’m gonna say it once again
i’m not stupid
touche
touche
anyway, you have to pay for the boardwalk, that’s all
