This is my favorite Bridge and Tunnel song. It's about how this up-coming generation is too apathetic toward anything going on around us. We are too easily pacified by television (bullshit like TV shows on DVD) and too quick to congratulate ourselves--We ride on the backs of the work that everyone else has done (like the civil rights movement, for instance) without doing anything ourselves and then pat ourselves on the back.

The last line of the song is fucking fantastic.
