Lost Generation (original song) - Eugenie Thompson

Work in progress, thanks again to Felix and B-roots for camera related activities.... like recording this. Sorry for the radiator hiss.

Lyrics:
We were better when they tried to put us down,
But baby, that was when we got around
Now they've got too many expectations
Yeah im "talking 'bout my generation"

Well you wanted to make music,
And now you just make money
If I stripped you of your wealth,
would you still know how to be funny?
'Cause what happened to our charm,
and all the risks that never did us no harm?

So put your blackberries down, and tell me; where is the youth?
Did we throw it away with the truth?
The truth?
Where is the youth?

'Cause honey, rock and roll is dead
I think its gettin' to our heads
and "how does it feel?"
Yeah that's right, nothing is real
What happened to romance?
And "do you do you do you do you do you wanna dance?"

Well of course you "can't get no satisfaction"
Darlin' you live in a world of distractions
And now that you always get what you want
You never try to find what you need

Now they blame it on our cell phones,
Remember when they "blamed it on the rolling stones",
Back when there was "no direction home"?

We were better when they tried to put us down,
But baby, that was when we got around
Now they've got too many expectations
Yeah im "talking 'bout my generation"
