MC LARS HORRIS - iGeneration lyrics

And people tried to put us down

When iTunes bumped a post-Cold War sound

My generation sat at the Mecca of malls,

Times Square, I'm there, Viacom installs

So we hit the net while the Trade Center fell

New York met Hollywood, we ran like hell

No Vietnam for us, yo, Iraq it's on

So who agreed upon this cowboy Genghis Khan?

The choice made, baby. Hey we'd take it back

logged in dropped out, MTV took track

They sold it back to us and claimed no correlation

The iMac, iPod, iGeneration

And I'm waiting for the day we can get out

The world is ours, that's the story no doubt

Want to be more than info super highway traffic

want to be more than a walking demographic!

[CHORUS]

"Hey! You're part of it" Talking about the iGeneration

"Yeah! You're part of it" Talking about my iGeneration

See the iGeneration knew organization

meant optimization and unification

When imagination gave participation

In creation of culture a manifestation

The Berlin Wall fell and out we came

The post-Cold War kids laid claim to AIM.

LOL, OMG, yo, BRB. Space, colon, dash, closed parenthesis

We sat at our laptops and typed away,

and found that we each had something to say

Web-logged our fears, our hopes and dreams

Individuated by digital means

Fiber optic lenses, DVD, Coca Cola, Disney and Mickey D's.

Flat mass culture, the norm that took hold

I hope I die before I get sold

[REPEAT CHORUS]

This is the I-N-T-E. R-N-E-T ge-na-ra-tion, see?

This is the I-N-T-E. R-N-E-T ge-na-ra-tion, see?
