Lyrics

A new generation and the whole world's shakin' We were born in flames, maiden names Suburban homes, make your bones Bite your lip, take the fifth Know your rights, its your life now Don't let them take you down It's a beautiful day Don't let them take you down It's a beautiful day Hurricanes, love in vain Murphy's law, days of war Crash and burn, live and learn Fill the void, girls and boys now Don't let them take you down It's a beautiful day Don't let them take you down It's a beautiful day All the people, all the people run All the while we're trying to find the sun It's a beautiful day Don't let them take you down It's a beautiful day Don't let them mess you 'round It's a beautiful day Don't let them take you down It's a beautiful day Don't let them take you down A lost generation and the whole world is shakin' ah ha Don't let them take you down A bad reputation and a dime store nation ah ha Don't let them take you down And it's my generation and the whole world is breakin' my heart Don't let them take you down A lost generation and the whole world's shakin'
