imho generally it's simply about how the older generations always complaining about the following generations, specifically how the baby boomer's generation was complaining about generation x.. the song itself has references from the boomer's generation and generation x (limp bizkit's generation), with the title itself referencing The Who's song from the 60s, with lyrics referencing Guns N Roses' song from the 80s, and Spice Girls' from the 90s, and even mentioning pop culture reference like titanic (because the movie was big then).. for me personally, it's ironic because currently it's the generation x people that are constantly complaining about my generation, the generation y (or as they like to call us: "millennials").. but that's why I love this song, it's actually has a deeper meaning, unlike most of Limp Bizkit's other songs.. I'm sure my generation will soon enough start complaining about the generation z, it's an endless cycle.
@willy11217 I agree with most of what you said except for the last part. I’m a GenXer, myself and other GenXers love our Milennial and GenZers. I feel as if the Boomers are complaining about all of us now. I can’t speak for all of Gen X, and I’m sure there are Xers complaining like you said. But I feel the majority of us side with the younger generations.
