We were 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



They screamed when the Beatles sang

And they laughed when the "king" fell down the stars

They should´ve known better



Oh we hated our Aunt we

Then we messed in our pants

Then we lost our faith

And prayed to the TV

Oh we should´ve known better



We freeze like statues

On the pages of history

Living was never like this

When we took all those GCE´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



Born, born in the fifties

We were born, born in the

Fifties...
