MY DEGENERATION
New words by Lachlan Irvine, original words and music by Pete Townshend
Chords throughout: [E][A][D]/
Young folks like to put us d-d-d-down,
Just because we're s-s-s-still around.
What they don't like, so I've been told
Is that we didn't die before we got old.
This is my generation, my generation.
So we'll take our time to f-f-f-fade away,
And leave the Xs and the Ys to p-p-p-pay and pay.
If you're worried about an ageing nation,
Well, you can thank my g-g-g-generation.
This is my generation, my generation.
Talkin' about my degeneration.
Talkin' about my degeneration.
I've got so many aches and p-p-p-pains,
My dodgy knees can predict the rain.
I even ache when I'm layin' in b-b-b-bed,
But I guess it's better than bein' d-d-d-dead.
This is my generation, my generation.
I rant and rave at the TV s-s-s-screen,
I'm the grumpiest sod you've ever seen.
But if you want to see some aggravation,
Start bitchin' about my g-g-g-generation.
This is my generation, my generation.
Talkin' about my degeneration.
Talkin' about my degeneration.
