Teenage Boomers

Teenage Boomers - Paco del Stinko

You marched in the streets
Protesting the man
Then you became him
Tell me was it part of your plan

Teenage boomers had it all (Oh yes it's true)
My oh my how the mighty fall (Fall down go boom)

The summer of love
Turned into 1968
All together now for the future
Shot down surrender to the hate

Lighten up man you were't there
We had free love and didn't care
We rebeled against mom and dad
Until we realized just how much they had


Music that opened up doors
You say it's best
Unblock your ears
And listen to the rest
Bringin' the stink since 2006.

Teenage Boomers
by Jerkatorium

crock pots, pet rocks, gold lamé
pop rocks, lunch box, macrame
everything’s gonna be OK, now
mom just got a job
hairspray, earth day, birthday boy
school dance, tight pants, corduroy
everything’s gonna get destroyed, now
if they drop the bomb

hey hey one day you’ll have it made
teenage boomers
you’ll be waking up to the American dream
hey hey one day you’ll have it made
teenage boomers
you’ll be waking up to the American dream

there’s a bright future
for teenage boomers
there’s a bright future, for you

jumpsuits, knee boots, denim flare
crop tops, tube socks, feathered hair
got every reason to despair, now
the Beatles have broke up
low cut, bowl cut, figure skate
wheat grass, no gas, Watergate
everything might not be great, now
once I’ve all grown up

hey hey one day you’ll have it made
teenage boomers
you’ll be waking up to the American dream
hey hey one day you’ll have it made
teenage boomers
you’ll be waking up to the American dream

there’s a bright future
for teenage boomers
there’s a bright future, for you
... just not for me

Teenage Boomers - Gray

What in the world is going on
Everybody’s got it, got it so wrong
Why doesn’t anybody see things your way
They don’t seem to listen when you’ve got something to say

Teenage boomers are looking to start a life
You’re raising your voices and trying to speak your minds
Got something to say
But people just turn away
And it’s all up to you
It’s all up to you
To make your way in the world

Sometimes you’ll feel like a falling star
Easy to forget how lucky you are
Take a step back and you will see you’re not alone
The time has come for you to get out on your own

Teenage Boomers - WreckdoM

Old fashioned values
Generation Z spine
I'm nineteen going on sixty-nine
Keep it in your pants
And keep it off the grass
Teenage boomer here to own your ass

Nobody wants to work
Nobody wants to work
Nobody wants to lick my loafers
Nobody knows their place

Well I'm saying Trump won
And I'll shoot you in the buns
Cuz you're amoral and a Communist scum
My blood pressure's up
My cholesterol is sky high
Because I'm nineteen going on sixty-nine

I'm already privileged and I'm gonna get richer
I'm ornery as hell and getting sonofabitcher
I'm strong and lean and my mind's a steel trap
But I go on YouTube and fill it with my crap
I'm gonna run the future
I was born with the right
I'm an American icon
And you can bet your ass I'm whi-yyyyyy am I like this?
Sixty-nine!!!!

The Mellfire Trifecta

I heard a rumour, I heard a rumour,
Nothing is quite as it seems
You were a boomer, major consumer
Living your suburban dreams

You could just float away
Nothing to weigh you down
Who's going to quit the play
When it's the hottest show in town?

I saw the humour, I saw the humour
Coupled, with nothing to do
Just a late bloomer, gardening groomer
Strollering with baby blue

How could this fall apart?
Love didn't have a clue
Watching it from afar
Fearing the joke's on you

Teenage boomers beware
The war on boredom is here
A real life current affair
On your hands
True believer
Who can redeem her
But how can you leave her?

Teenage boomers beware
So much of what we perceive
Isn't actually there
You'll see, when you're older
Tears on your shoulder
