We Hate The Kids Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

D

DEvery generation gets fooled again

 And Aevery generation is the same

 And its Bmno good saying its not in your name

G 'cause Ait is in your name

 And Dthis generation is to blame

 And Athis generation is the same

 And I'm Bmsorry that I can't join in any more

GBut I've been let down Atoo many times beGfore

 Oh Ayeah we mean it

D We hate the Bmkids

 So Gdance dance dance to this Aradio toDnight

 I Dwanted to believe in rock'n'roll stars

 I Awanted to believe in contemporary art

 I Bmwanted to aspire to a higher path

G But Athere's no higher path

 It was Dever thus, and it was ever you

 And it's Aever us because we'll do it too

 And we're Bmsorry to the all the disinherited meek, and

 We're Gsorry for this con-trick that we Aplay on the people

G Oh Ayeah we mean it

D We hate the Bmkids

 So Gdance dance dance to this Aradio toDnight G A

 And Dnobody ever comes alive

 And the Ajournalists clamour round glamour like flies

 And Bmboys who should know better grin and get high

GWith fat men who once Amet the MC5

 And Dno one discusses what they don't understand

 And Ano one does anything to harm the brand

 And this Bmgift is an illusion, this isn't hard

GAbsolutely anyone can Aplay the fucking guiGtar

 Oh Ayeah we mean it

D We hate the Bmkids

GUseless children genuflecting

ATo the idols who exploit them

GOpen mouthed and arsed expecting

ASome god to anoint them

GDance Dance Dance to this Aradio toDnight G A

 And there's Dalways a monk to get set on fire

 And there's Aalways a crackhead charismatic liar

 And there's Bmalways a depth to which you can aspire

 And there's Galways a teenager Adue to expire

DPop had a beginning, it grew and was tended

ANow it is rotten. Let it be ended.

 Let Bmevery hopeless case that every drummer befriended,

GEvery seven-inch that every Astudent intended

 Every Dgroupie and ligger and identity seeker

 Every Adruggy and drinker and every loudspeaker

 Be Bmdone with, be piled up, tossed, set alight

GNo more music, thank you and goodnight.
