lyrics
Verse 1:
We’re so broke and fucking bored
Allergic to our daily work
We want that Roman opulance
The status quo we will subvert
Our egos bigger than our hearts
We got the world we still want more
Too cool to try, blaise to fail
Our living nihilistic chore
We believed the hype
Dream big and reach up for those tiny stars
We saw through the shit
Now we wanna make our home among the dirt
Chorus:
We’re gunna live slow
We’re gunna die old
Always doing what we’re told
We’re Generation Y,
We’re Generation why the fuck not?
Verse 2:
We’re just millionaires
Embarrassed to be waiting in the wings
Wanna be the 1 per cent
Without the reckoning
This is my prayer for you
Maybe you’ll wake up and feel today
More than utility, more than what other people say.
In gold we trust
We’re spun, in debt, obese, addicted.
In gold we trust
Selectively numb with reason.
We’re so broke and fucking bored
Allergic to our daily work
We want that Roman opulance
The status quo we will subvert
Our egos bigger than our hearts
We got the world we still want more
Too cool to try, blaise to fail
Our living nihilistic chore
We believed the hype
Dream big and reach up for those tiny stars
We saw through the shit
Now we wanna make our home among the dirt
Chorus:
We’re gunna live slow
We’re gunna die old
Always doing what we’re told
We’re Generation Y,
We’re Generation why the fuck not?
Verse 2:
We’re just millionaires
Embarrassed to be waiting in the wings
Wanna be the 1 per cent
Without the reckoning
This is my prayer for you
Maybe you’ll wake up and feel today
More than utility, more than what other people say.
In gold we trust
We’re spun, in debt, obese, addicted.
In gold we trust
Selectively numb with reason.

Saw Kanga last night in Houston , instantly was entranced by her sound , sucked me into the Kangakult vortex , so glad I got to see her live , should have looked into her sooner as Gary Numan was so supportive of her on the Revolution tour , oh now it’s time to catch up and get further involved
