Generation Old
We’re not getting any younger
Background
I wanted to try my hand at making a punk song because a lot of our music up until now hasn’t been all that heavy and has focused largely on funk, soul, jazz and other genres that we love. I’m also a life-long punk/metal fan, but have never really ventured into writing anything in those genres. This is a first attempt and it was just enough “not bad” that we’re including it.

Lyrics
When did we get so fuckin old
we used to be the ones breakin' the mold
but world keeps turning, passin us by
when we did get so fucking old?
Generation Old doesn't get me high
You gotta understand this ain't about you
it ain't about me or the way it's gonna be
every generation sits at the peak
and every generation ain't gonna always speak
You'll never understand we're much the same
We both wanted the world to be better than it is
And despite my best effort to never grow up
every generation does and that's the rub
There's not a lot more to fucking say
They say while sun's out ya gotta make hay
But those assholes didn't know a thing that I know
The best things in life happen oh so slow
