As infants and children we would ride in cars with No seat belts, airbags None of these things at all Riding in the back of a pickup truck Was a special treat for little Indians and little cowboys O woo woo woo woo oo We were put to sleep on tummies in our baby cribs All colored in lead-based paint We had no childproof lids There weren’t any plugs in the electric outlets And some of us had to learn not to stick a pair of scissors into them O – no no o no We spent hours of hours building go karts out of scraps Only to find out we forgot to put some brakes on it Nevertheless these generations have been the best inventors ever And you are one of them You are one of them Of these generations And you are one of them You are one of them Of these generations We left early in the morning to play all day Swimming in dangerous newly flooded quarrel lakes And we actually made it without starving to death While countrywide the shops closed on 5:30 Or perhaps 6:00 pm We drank water from the garden hose But we didn’t get diseases from it Like we never get lost Even no one was able to reach us all day long We had no mobiles No cell phones And we were fine We had friends Friends ‘Cause we went outside to find them We had no DVD No internet No BBD Not a thousand different channels on TV No 5G panels We made friends And you are one of them You are one of them Of these generations And you are one of them You are one of them Of these generations The past fifty years have been an explosion Of new ideas Of innovations We are still young at heart And after running into the bushes We learned to solve the problems We learned to solve the problems by ourselves We got injured in action Fell out of trees Broke teeth and bones No following proceedings for anyone else but your own The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was actually unheard of Mum and dad was sided with the law and the officers who nailed us We had to deal with disappointment With failures But we had responsibility And mud pies And FREEDOM! And we still could see the eagles fly … We made friends ‘Cause we went outside to find them We had no DVD No internet No BBD Not a thousand different channels on TV No 5G panels We made friends And you are one of them You are one of them Of these generations And you are one of them You are one of them Of these generations I wanna hug my friends I wanna touch I wanna love I wanna keep you and I wanna give my hands
