One of Westerberg's best. The opening line is classic. Then "If you were a pill I'd take a handful at my will and I'd knock you back with something sweet and strong"? Are you kidding? It does not get better than that ever. |

| The Replacements – Bastards Of Young Lyrics

I'll second the "Got no war to name our's". The song is about a generation that feels lost and disconnected. Bastard children of the generations that came before. There was the WW1 generation, WW2 generation, the Vietnam generation. A twenty-something in 1985 was not identified with a war the way previous generations in the 20th century were. Those previous generations had claims at heroism and had the respect that came from having fought for something be it right or wrong. This one did not. |
