《Younger Generation》歌词

[00:00:00] Younger Generation - The Lovin' Spoonful

[00:00:06] Why must every generation

[00:00:09] Think their folks are square

[00:00:12] And no matter where their

[00:00:14] Heads are they know mom ain't there

[00:00:18] Cause I swore when

[00:00:19] I was small that I'd remember when

[00:00:25] I knew what's wrong with them that

[00:00:27] I was smaller then

[00:00:33] Determined to remember

[00:00:36] All the cardinal rules

[00:00:39] Like sun showers are legal

[00:00:41] Grounds for cutting school

[00:00:45] I know I have forgotten maybe

[00:00:49] One or two

[00:00:51] And I hope that I recall

[00:00:53] Them all before the baby's due

[00:00:57] And I know he'll have a question or two

[00:01:03] Like hey pop can I go ride my zoom

[00:01:09] It goes two hundred miles

[00:01:12] An hour suspended by balloons

[00:01:15] And can I put a droplet of this

[00:01:18] New stuff on my tongue

[00:01:21] And imagine frothing dragons

[00:01:24] While you sit and wreck your lungs

[00:01:27] And I must be permissive

[00:01:30] Understanding of the younger generation

[00:01:39] Then I'll know that all

[00:01:40] I've learned my kid assumes

[00:01:45] And all my deepest worries must

[00:01:47] Be his cartoons

[00:01:50] And still I'll try to them him

[00:01:53] All the things I've done

[00:01:57] Related to what he can do

[00:01:59] When he becomes a man

[00:02:02] And still he'll stick his fingers in the fan

[00:02:08] And hey pop my girlfriend's only three

[00:02:14] She's got her own videophone and

[00:02:17] She's taking lsd

[00:02:19] And now that we are best friends

[00:02:22] She wants to give a bit to me

[00:02:26] But what is the matter daddy

[00:02:28] How come you are turning green

[00:02:31] Could it be that you can not

[00:02:33] Live up to your dream

[00:02:36] Thank you
