My Generation (The Who cover) Lyrics
(B.J. whispers "I think I can do Who..." way down in the mix)
Well, people try to put us down
Talkin' bout my generation
Just because we get around
Talkin' bout my generation
The things they do look awful cold
Talkin' bout my generation
I hope I die before I get old
Talkin' bout my generation
My generation
Why don't you all just fade away?
Talkin' bout my generation
And don't try to dig what we all say
Talkin' bout my generation
I'm not trying to cause a big sensation
Talkin' bout my generation
I'm just talkin' bout my generation
Talkin' bout my generation
My generation.
(guitar solos)
Break it, fuck that shit!
(don't think Pete Townsend wrote that part)
Why don't you all just fade away?
Talkin' bout my generation
And don't try to dig what we all say
Talkin' bout my generation
I'm not trying to cause a big sensation
Talkin' bout my generation
I'm just talkin' bout my generation
Talkin' bout my generation
My generation
Talkin' bout my generation
This is my generation
This is my generation, baby
Talkin' bout my generation
Just because we get around
Talkin' bout my generation
The things they do look awful cold
Talkin' bout my generation
I hope I die before I get old
Talkin' bout my generation
Talkin' bout my generation
And don't try to dig what we all say
Talkin' bout my generation
I'm not trying to cause a big sensation
Talkin' bout my generation
I'm just talkin' bout my generation
Talkin' bout my generation
Break it, fuck that shit!
(don't think Pete Townsend wrote that part)
Talkin' bout my generation
And don't try to dig what we all say
Talkin' bout my generation
I'm not trying to cause a big sensation
Talkin' bout my generation
I'm just talkin' bout my generation
Talkin' bout my generation
Talkin' bout my generation
This is my generation, baby

ha this song is fucking cool. im pretty sure this song wasn't recorded when he was in green day. it was sweet children. but yes, this song is grand. it doesn't really need an explanation...
The song speaks for itself, and it sounds a hell of alot better when Billie Joe is singing it.
the who is my fav classic rock band. gd is my fav modern rock band. it's the perfect combination!
The song is cool, love the drumming beats. Never heard any other version of this song, but I'm sure they are good as the GreenDay version.
its a cover...stop putting covers in the lyrics sections.
He says "Heineken? Fuck that shit!" not "Break it, fuck that shit!"
Trifling Biyatch...fuck off, you're obviously being an asshole intentionally.
The Who was the first rock band I ever heard...they got me into a ton of other great rock groups, Green Day has always been a favorite...good for them!! Rock on.
I love the Who and Green day!!! Great mix! This song rocks aswell
i love that song! but i think juff's right. he sings "heineken? fuck that shit!"
of course they did a most excellent job covering this song but i love the stutter roger daltrey sings in the original
