Lyrics

We were born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 My mother cried when President Kennedy died
 She said it was the Communists, but I knew better
 Would they drop the bomb on us while we made love on the beach?
 We were the class they couldn't teach 'cause we knew better
 We were born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 They screamed when the Beatles sang
 And we laughed when the king fell down the stairs
 Oh, he should've known better
 Oh, we hated our aunts, and we messed in our pants
 And we lost our faith, and prayed to the TV
 Oh, we should've known better
 We were born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 We freeze like statues on the pages of history
 Living was never like this when we took all those G.C.E.'s
 Oh, you opened the door for us, and then you turned to dust
 You don't understand us, so don't reprimand us
 We're taking the future, we don't need no teacher
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
 Born, born in the '50s
