Thumbs Down To Generation X - Slow Gherkin

It’s the ultimate social question--

Strip away the superficial and reveal the truth

That is why I don’t believe that Newsweek has its finger

On the pulse of American youth

Sony Walkmans, cool indifference and expensive thrift store clothing

Is the length of what they see

And their market’s indestructible

As long as they can keep our eyes are adhered to the T. V

It won’t be long 'till I am old

My youth will not be bought and sold

Thumbs down to Generation X

And I hope you realize that if you’re smoking

You’re a victim of the tobacco industry

'Cause enslaving we consumers while we’re young

Is one of their foremost priorities

They say, «be young, have fun

And buy our product while you’re at it

Or you’ll be rejected by your peers.»

I say be young and go your own way

Or you’ll fall into the lie and

You’ll very quickly disappear
