lyrics

We were cold war kids but we weren’t prepared for this
we thought we’d all go in a flash
or be left behind on an empty planet

my generation
stuck in the middle forever
we ain’t great but we’re not that bad
we aren’t much of anything
like a mark on a form, sign here
generation X

we don’t vote much but when we do we get a sticker
watching scientists at Chernobyl in their gas masks and slickers
is no different to us than watching politicians

my generation
stuck in the middle forever
we ain’t great but we’re not that bad
we aren’t much of anything
like a mark on a form, sign here
generation X

please forgive us when we are forgotten
the boomers took our thunder and left us only blame
and the kids who follow to fix ours and their mistakes
we never dreamed we’d have so much time

my generation
stuck in the middle forever
we ain’t great but we’re not that bad
we aren’t much of anything
like a mark on a form, sign here
generation X
