We were raised up in the hallowed halls
Of half a million shopping malls
And there ain't any price that we're too proud to pay
We'll buy anything from diet Sprite, too 1,000 points of light
Well I'll admit we're not that bright, but I'm proud any way

Oh my generation, my generation, my generation got
HOPE I DIE BEFORE I GET OLD

STRIKE A POSE THERE'S NOTHING TO IT
My generation, my generation, my generation should be proud
