Prince - Bold Generation

Woo

Pardon me for living, but this is my world too
I can't help if what's cool to us might be strange to you
Pardon me for breathing, borrow some of your air
The trouble with your generation is you don't take time to care

Ain't got time for politics, we never fight no war
Makin' love and music is the only thing worth fighting for

Bold generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Your old-fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do
Pardon me for thinking, there's something under my hair
Maybe you thought the lights were on but no one's living there
Pardon me for living, but this is my world too
I hope they bury your old ideas the same time they bury you

Ain't got time for politics, we never fight no war
Makin' love and music is the only thing worth fighting for

Bold generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Your old-fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do

Yeah
Bold generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Your old-fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do

Bold generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Your old-fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do

Wanna change the world
Wanna change, wanna change, wanna change the world
Bold generation

Bold generation

(Everybody sing)
Bold generation (yeah)

Bold generation (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Bold generation (yeah, yeah)

Bold generation (wanna change the world)

(Everybody sing, everybody sing, everybody, everybody)
Bold generation

Pardon me for breathing, borrow some of your air
The trouble with your generation is you don't take time to care
Ain't got time for politics, we never fight no war
Makin' love and music is the only thing worth fighting for

Bold generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you (change the world, we got to change the world)
(Bold generation) your old-fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do
(Don't tell us what to do)

(Bold generation)
