Oldest Kids in America -Parody of "We're the Kids in America"- Kim Wilde- (Tribute to GenX)
Looking out my car window
Watching other cars whiz by
I sit here in traffic and wonder why
Oldie comes on, and I start a groovin'
I still feel like I am 18, but my body is slowing down
Still groovin' to the beat -still diggin' the sound
Downtown, the old ones are still going
Downtown, only the old ones keep going
Oldest kids in America whoa
Oldest kids in America whoa
9-5 stuck on the corporate merry-go-round
Time keeps moving -time seems faster
Look, boy, Father Time doesn't stand a chance, not a chance
It is much later, baby, but I say never mind
Life moves quickly; life can leave you behind
GenX hearts don't need a new story
We keep singing about the days of glory
Oldest kids in America whoa
Oldest kids in America whoa
9-5 stuck on the corporate merry-go-round
Come a bit closer, honey, we still matter
We had so many crazy experiences, it felt right
Don't try to make us get old, that's not right
Outside things have gotten
Outside things have gotten complicated everywhere
I'm not going to grow old, baby
From the north to the east
We were the new wave, a brand new beat
Oldest kids in America whoa
Oldest kids in America whoa
9-5 stuck on the corporate merry-go-round (Repeat a lot)
