Born in the '70s Lyrics

I was born in the year punk broke
Days before the king was dead
It was the year of the snake
I was a red faced childWho stumbled where he tread
Was kept in orderly file
My parents named me Ed
I tried my hardest to smileAnd like my daddy said
I've tried to be myself
Sometimes daydreaming for hours
Wishing for a dangerous lifeCut the leash some slack
Run into the morning light
Race the trains by the track
Until my mouth feels dryBut can you count me? I might let you down
In a world that is so sensational
But you can count on me, I'm living for the now
Up against the older generation's wallBorn in the '70s
Born in the '70sAfter a length of time
You're this parody

Just like the record's stuck
Always repeating the pastThat never liked you before
You had no reason to last
We're in a silent war
A telepathic blastLike my daddy said
These are exciting times
The future grabs my throat
And lets me know it's alrightIf I believe in love
Then I believe in hate too
I'll taste the darker stuff
To find some lasting truthCan you count on me? I might let you down
In a world that is so sensational
No you can count on me, I'm living for the now
Up against the oder generation's wallBorn in the '70s
Born in the '70s
Born in the '70s
Born in the '70sBorn in the '70s
(No we don't really give a fuck about you)
Born in the '70s
(No we don't really give a fuck about you)Born in the '70s, yeah
(No we don't really give a fuck about you)
Born in the '70s
(No we don't really give a fuck about you)
Born in the '70s
(No we don't really give a fuck about you)
Born in the'70s
(No we don't really give a fuck about you)
