Born in the '50s lyrics

We were born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

My mother cried

When president Kennedy died

She said it was the communists

But I knew better

Would they drop the bomb on us

While we made love on the beach

We were the class they couldn't teach

'Cos we knew better

We were born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

They screamed

When the Beatles sang

And they laughed when the King fell down the stars

Oh they should've known better

Oh we hated our Aunt

Then we messed in our pants

Then we lost our faith and prayed to the TV

Oh we should've known better

We were born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

Born

Born in the fifties

We freeze like statues on the pages of history

Living was never like this when we took all those G.C.E.'s

Oh you opened the door for us

And then you turned to dust

You don't understand us

So don't reprimand us

We're taking the future

We don't need no teacher

(Repeat chorus to fade)
