Baby Boomers Video (MV)

This is my generation
This is the place to be
We fought for love; we fought for peace
We fought for your equality

The summer of love was coming soon
We put a man on the moon
Is there nothing that we couldn't do?
Cos baby, we're the baby boom

After the Second World War
We had to remember what peace was for
We were proud of our national health
We worked hard to improve our personal wealth

We gave you the Beatles and the Stones
We queued up to buy our own homes
We lit candles in the gathering gloom
Cos baby, we're the baby boom

You gotta hand it to the baby boomers
Now we run the world more or less
We're gonna leave it for the next generation
To get us out of this mess
So shout out to the baby boomers
We've been on the gravy train
We're leaving nothing for the next generation
They'll have to start over again

This is my generation
This is the place to be
We fought for love and for the end of war
We fought for your liberty

We gave you rain that burned your skin
We turned the forests to dust
On the one hand we gave you baby boom
On the other baby bust

After the Second World War
We didn't want to be rationed no more
We became consumers and we are still
We smoked pot and and went on the pill

We gave you the Beatles and the Stones
We inherited the wealth from our parent's homes
I'm sorry you can only afford to buy one room
Well, that's life - we're the baby boom

You gotta hand it to the baby boomers
Now we run the world more or less
We're gonna leave it for the next generation
To get us out of this mess
So shout out to the baby boomers
We've been on the gravy train
We're leaving nothing for the next generation
They'll have to start over again
