♫ My Generation :: The Who ::

"My Generation" appeared on The Who's debut album of the same name. It was released as a single on 5th November 1965, reaching No. 2 in the UK charts and 74 in the US. "My Generation" was recently named the 11th greatest song by Rolling Stone magazine on their list of the "500 Greatest Songs of All Time".


Listen to the song and complete the lyrics with the following words:
around (x2)   -   down (x2)    -    fade (x2)    -    old (x2)    -   cold (x2)   -   say (x2)    -    sensation (x2)

People try to put us (1) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get 
(2) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful
(3) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I hope I die before I get 
(4) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

Why don't you all 
(5) away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to dig what we all 
(6) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm not trying to cause a big 
(7) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm just talkin' 'bout my generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

Why don't you all
(8) away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to dig what we all 
(9) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

I'm just talkin' 'bout my generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

People try to put us 
(11) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get 
(12) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful 
(13) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Yeah, I hope I die before I get 
(14) (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby
