What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I'm sick and tired of my generation getting blamed
2
For the state of the planet, I'm sick of my generation getting called
3
'The TV generation', "Well all you guys do is watch TV"
4
What did you expect? We watched lee harvey oswald get shot
5
Live on tv one Sunday morning, we were afraid to change
6
The fucking channel for the next thirty years
7
"This show sucks", "Yeah, but somebody might get shot
8
During the commercial, now hang on!
9
That's what's wrong with this country, we always shoot the wrong guys
10
We shoot J F K, we shoot R F K and it comes to teddy, we go
11
"Ahh, leave him alone, he'll fuck it up himself, no problem, you know"
12
Biggest target in the whole goddamn Kennedy family
13
Nobody takes a shot on me, he weighs about seven thousand pounds
14
You could shoot a bullet in Los Angeles and hit him in the ass in Boston
15
Five minutes later, he'd be standing on the lawn
16
At the Kennedy compound going, "Ah There's a bullet in my ass, ah"
17
Ted kennedy, good senator, but a bad date
18
You know what I'm saying, folks? One of those guys who gets home
19
At four o'clock in the morning and goes, "What did I forget?
20
Oh! The fucking girl! What's the matter with me?
21
Jesus, where are my pants? Holy shit!
22
Because I'll tell you folks, we got a real problem with guns
23
In this country, we have people snapping
24
Almost twice, three, four, five times a year, right?
25
People just snap, they can't take it anymore, they just snap
26
They go into Mcdonalds and kill fifteen people
27
I mean what the fuck is going on down at the post office?
28
Every six months some guy gets fired, comes back
29
And kills all his co-workers
30
If I worked at the post office as a supervisor
31
I wouldn't lay anybody off for the next twenty-five fucking years
32
I'd just walk around going, "Hanrahan, what're you doing?" "Nothing"
33
"Well, keep it up, you're doing a great job! Jesus, I'll tell ya"
34
And I am sick and tired for New York city taking the blame
35
In this country for the crime problem, you know
36
Whenever you read a fact chart, it always says Detroit leads the world
37
In rape and murder and everything else, but New York takes the blame
38
"New york's a cess pool, it's a cess pool of filth and crime
39
We're moving", "Hey! I just moved here four years ago
40
And I'm not leaving, because this is the most exciting place
41
In the world to live"
42
Oh yeah! Yeah! There are so many ways to die in New York city
43
Come on! Race riots, drive by shootings, subway crashes
44
Construction cranes collapsing on the sidewalks
45
Manhole covers blowing up, asbestos shooting into the sky
46
We had a subway crash here a couple of years ago
47
Five people died, the next day they found the driver was drunk
48
And hooked on crack, folks, this makes Disneyland
49
Look like a fucking bike ride, doesn't it?
50
"Your drive today is Edward, he's drunk and hooked on crack
51
The man sitting next to you has a loaded nine-millimeter
52
Good luck, folks!", "Honey, get the camera!"
53
This is gonna be fucking great!"
54
Yeah, I love living in New York, man and people who live in New York
55
We wear that fact like a badge right on our sleeve because we know
56
That fact impresses everybody! "I was in vietnam"
57
"So what? I live in New York!", "Really?
58
Yeah, 'cause New York teaches you to live life the way
59
It should be lived, moment to moment, yes
60
Because every moment in New York could be your last
61
Oh yeah, yeah
62
You could be walking down the street tomorrow
63
Feeling good about yourself, drink free, drug free
64
Looking forward to the future
65
And somebody accidently nudges their poodle off of a 75th floor ledge
66
Doink! And he's headed for the ground
67
At a hundred and seventy five thousand miles per hour
68
And curchunk he's impeded in your head! You're dead on contact
69
The headline in the post the next day reads, "Man killed by best friend"
70
People cut the article out and they laugh about it at the office
71
And you're forever remembered as the poodle man!
72
"I knew the poodle man and he hated fucking poodles"
73
New york teaches you to live life moment to moment
74
And street by street and beat to beat
75
Because we've all played that street ot street game in New York
76
Haven't we? Yes we have, good block, bad block, good block, bad block
77
Gun block, crack block, asbestos block, poodle block! Poodle block
78
'Cause most people think, "Life sucks, and then you die"
79
I disagree, I think life sucks, then you get cancer
80
Then you go into chemotherapy and you lose all your hair
81
You feel bad about yourself, then all of the sudden
82
The cancer goes into remission
83
You look good, you feel good, you're going great
84
And all of the sudden you have a stroke, you can't move your right side
85
And one day you step off the curb at 68th by Lincoln center and bang
86
You get hit by a bus and then, maybe, you die
87
Because I think Jim Hensen said it best when he said
88
"Anybody got any aspirin? I think I got a cold"
89
And a chill filled the room, we all have this incredible attachment
90
To the muppets, don't we? "We love the muppets! They're so cute!"
91
Did you hear about Jim Hensen's funeral? Here in New York city, huh?
92
Kermit the frog and big bird sang "It's not easy being green"
93
At Jim Hensen's funeral, if I'm fifty-six years old
94
When I kick the bucket and a fucking sock is singing at my funeral
95
I'm gonna pop out of the coffin and go
96
"Hey! What the Hell is this about? Sammy Davis Jr. gets Frank Sinatra
97
And I get a fucking sock?
98
I'm really pissed off now!
