Generation X

Verse
Cap pulled down, shirt collar pulled up
White shoes on, pushing my luck
Baggy jeans, spiky hair, moussed up
I knew it all, and I didn’t care

Prechorus
Having nothin’ but a good time

Chorus
We used to rock’n’roll like a hurricane blowing
Takin’ everything in our stride
Heartache taught us many lessons
But somehow we survived
Fortune always favoured the brave
So we faced our fears
Growing up strong, in those living years

Verse 2
Arcade games, taking my money
MTV, playing my songs
School is in, boring or funny
Watching the clock until the bell rings

Chorus

Bridge
Threats of nuclear war
Fighting for the highest score
Pastels were what we word
And concert crowds screamed “More! More! More!”

Chorus

Outro
