Our Generation

Lyrics

Hope of the world is in our generation (Let's straighten it out) It's all left up to us to change this present situation (Let's straighten it out) Take a lesson from our elders, don't make the same mistake (Let's straighten it out) Let's fill the world with love, get rid of all the hate Our elders taught us one thing, but practiced another Just look what happened to the Indian and the brother Straighten it out Straighten it out Straighten it out Hope of the world is in our generation (Let's straighten it out) It's all left up to us to change this present situation (Let's straighten it out) Our leaders make us fight, we don't know what for (Let's straighten it out) If they want people killed, let them fight the war It's gotta end somewhere, this killing's gotta cease If no one went to fight, we could all live in peace Our generation (Straighten it out) Is all left up to us (Straighten it out) Our generation (Straighten it out) Let's do just what we must Straighten it out (Straighten it out) We gotta straighten it out (Straighten it out) Straighten it out (Straighten it out) We can straighten it out Hope of the world is in our generation (Let's straighten it out) It's all left up to us to change this present situation (Let's straighten it out) Got a world full of machines, poison in the air (Let's straighten it out) Wanna go live on the moon, can't hardly live down here There are some good elders, but on the other hand Too many old folks ain't gon' never change Our generation (Straighten it out) It's all left up to us (Straighten it out) Our generation (Straighten it out) Let's do just what we must Straighten it out (Our generation) We can straighten it out (Let's straighten it out) Straighten it out (Our generation) Let's straighten it out (Straighten it out) In the USA (Our generation) In Vietnam (Let's straighten it out) Everywhere (Our generation) All over the world (Let's straighten it out) Washington D.C.
