Younger Generation
The Lovin' Spoonful
This is already posted here but in tab mode so I took the chords and made a new version for us to play it easy way. All credits to frankwilson27 Cmaj7 332000 Am x02210 Dm7 x00211 Dm x00231 G7 320001 D7 x00212 x33211 / xx0211 C/B x20010 [Intro] / (hit the string and then the ) [Verse] Why must every generation think their folks are square? And no matter where their heads are they know mom’s aint there. Cause’ I swore when I was small that I’d remember when I knew what’s wrong with them that I was smaller than. Determined to remember all the cardinal rules. Like sunshowers are legal grounds for cuttin’ school. I know I have forgotten maybe one or two. And I hope that I recall them all before the baby’s due. And I’ll know he’ll have a question or two. [Chorus] Like hey pop. Can I go ride my zoom? It goes two hundred miles an hour suspended on baloons. And can I put a droplet of this new stuff on my tounge? And imagine frothing dragons while you sit and wreck your lungs. And I must be permissive understanding of the younger generation. [Verse] And then I know that all I’ve learned my kid assumes. And all my deepest worries must be his cartoons And still I’ll try to tell him all the things I’ve done Relating to what he can do when he becomes a man And still he’ll stick his fingers in the fan. [Verse] And hey pop my girlfriend’s only three She’s got her own videophone and she’s taking L S D. And now that were best friends she wants to give a taste to me But whats the matter daddy? How come you’re turning green? Can it be that you can’t live up to your dreams? (BUT THAT’S NOT TRUE BECAUSE WE’RE LIVING IT)
