Generation.

What do you think will become of our generation?

I'd like to ask our former friends

'cos in the past you've got anarchy and alcohol

and you turned out alright in the end

 

How do you keep moving on?

Knowing you're no longer the only ones

not the movers or shakers or candlestick makers

dieticians, politicians butchers and bakers

how do you keep singing your songs?

 

Because I want to know, how long this can last

how long before we step back and move into the past

how long do we go? Only god knows

when do I stop trying to be a new sensation?

How long are we the new generation?

 

So when they're gone, and all we've got left is what we've left for ourselves, yeah

they're moving on, and we are starting to realise

just how you felt, yeah

 

How do you keep moving on?

Knowing you're no longer the only ones

not the movers or shakers or candlestick makers

dieticians, politicians butchers and bakers

how do you keep singing your songs?

 

Because I want to know, how long this can last

how long before we step back and move into the past

how long do we go? Only god knows

when do I stop trying to be a new sensation?

How long are we the new generation?

 

Because I want to know, how long this can last

how long before we step back and move into the past

how long do we go? Only god knows

when do I stop trying to be a new sensation?

How long before our train reaches the station?

How long before I start to lose my patience?

How long were we the new generation?
