I'm trying to forget your generation
Using any way I see!
Well, the ends must justify the means
I said, your generation don't mean a thing to me!
I said, your generation don't mean a thing to me!
I said, your generation don't mean a thing to me!

It might take a bit of violence
But violence ain't our only stance
It might make our friends enemies
But we've gotta take that chance!
There ain't no time for substitutes!
There ain't no time for idle threats!
Actions are rather hard to place
'cos what you give is what you get!

It's your generation!
Well, it's your generation!
Well, it's your generation!
Well, it's your generation!

[Guitar Solo]

I'm trying to forget your generation
Using any way I see!
The ends must justify the means
Your generation don't mean a thing to me!
I said your generation don't mean a thing to me!
I said your generation don't mean a thing to me!
It might take a bit of violence
But violence ain't our only stance
It might make our friends enemies
But we've gotta take that chance!
There ain't no time for substitutes!
There ain't no time for idle threats!
Actions are rather hard to place
'cos what you give is what you get!

It's your generation!
Well, it's your generation!
Well, it's your generation!
Well, it's your generation!

Well, the ends must justify the means! (It's time your generation's come to an end!)
I said, the ends must justify the means! (It's time your generation's come to an end!)
I said, the ends must justify the means! (It's time your generation's come to an end!)
I said, the ends must justify the means! (It's time your generation's come to an end!)

It's time your generation's come to an end!
It's time your generation's come to an end!
Your generation!
