[Verse 1]
You told me you didn't love me, I said that you did
You sad motherfucker, you sad motherfucker
You made me a bike and you told me to ride
Then you broke my heart one night
Now I don't want another
No, I don't want another

[Pre-Chorus]
Your brain is sick and your eyes are blue
Coulda sworn I saw right into you
And I know you cared
From the way you remembered everything I said, ooh

[Chorus]
One in four, one in four
We must be the saddest generation
Is there any hope for us at all?
One in four, one in four
Where is the emotional education we're all looking for?

[Verse 2]
You said that I shouldn't want you, I said I still did
You mad motherfucker, you mad motherfucker
You hated the world and you told me we wouldn't work out
'Cause you didn't want kids
But I just wanna love ya
Yeah, I just wanna love ya
[Pre-Chorus]
Your brain is sick and your eyes are blue
I coulda sworn I saw right into you
And I know you cared
From the way you looked when I told you I was scared, ooh

[Chorus]
One in four, one in four
We must be the saddest generation
Is there any hope for us at all?
One in four, one in four
Where is the emotional education we're all looking for?

[Bridge]
Oh, I should've known better
I could never make you better
Oh, I should've known better
I was never gonna make you better
(I was never gonna make you better, ooh)
(I was never gonna make you better, ooh)

[Chorus]
One in four, one in four
We must be the saddest generation
Is there any hope for us at all?
One in four, one in four
We must be the loneliest generation
We don't know what we are looking for
[Outro]
We don't know what we are looking for
