When you see a little baby,
sitting like his mother's lap
It's just the beginning of a thing
called the generation gap
It's not the difference of age now,
everybody's talking about
the nick of the generation gap
Well, the grown -ups go out now,
they throw the parties that get stoned
in front of the children at home
But they ain't fooling anybody now,
cause those kids are gonna find it out
Yeah, it's just another reason
for a thing called the generation gap
Well, the generation gap is a mighty,
And you ain't gonna fill it up
with all those lies and being told
You better shut your trap
Preacher says drinking is a sin
That we'll have to pay for
Well, tell me, what's that liquor bottle doing
And who's the man who calls daddy
every time that mama's out?
Well, do you still wonder
why we have that generation gap?
The generation gap is a mighty,
And you ain't gonna fill up
with all those lies that's being told
You better shut your trap
If you wanna help to close
The generation gap is a mighty,
An d you ain't gonna feel love
with all the lies that's being told
Or else you're gonna lose yourself
