We're the children of the eighties haven't we grown
2
We're tender as a Lotus and we're tougher than a stone.
3
And the age of our innocence is somewhere in the garden.
4
We like the music of the sixties
5
It's The Rolling Stones
6
The Beatles and The Doors.
7
Flower children
8
Woodstock and the war.
9
Ah
10
but it's getting harder to deceive us.
11
And we don't care if Dylan's gone to Jesus
12
Jimmy Hendrix is playing on.
13
We know Janis Joplin was the Rose
14
ah
15
but all the stuff she put in her arm.
16
We are not alone.
17
We're the children of the eighties haven't we grown
18
. . .
19
Some of us are the sisters and the brothers
20
We take a leatherjacket and a single golden earring.

Hang out at Discos

Rock shows

lose our hearing
24
Take uppers
25
downers
26
blues and reds and yellows.
27
Our brains are turning to jello
28
We are looking forward to the days when we live inside of a purple haze.
29
And the salvation of the soul is Rock and Roll
30
We are the children of the eighties haven't we grown
31
. . .
32
Recently have you looked in our eyes
33
Maybe with your conscience in disguise.
34
We're well informed and we are wise
35
please stop telling us lies.
36
We know Afganistan's invaded and we know El Salvador's dictated
37
Ah
38
but our lives have just begun
39
we are the warriers of the sun.
40
We're the golden boys and the golden girls
41
For a better world.
42
We are the children of the eighties haven't we grown
