[Verse 1: Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, & John Entwistle]
People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

[Chorus: Roger Daltrey]
This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

[Verse 2: Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, & John Entwistle]
Why don't you all f-f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to dig what we all s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm not tryin' to cause a big s-s-sensation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

[Chorus: Roger Daltrey]
My generation
This is my generation, baby

Why don't you all f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to d-dig what we all s-s-s-s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm not tryin' to cause a big sensation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

[Chorus: Roger Daltrey]
This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

My, my, ge-generation
My, my, my, my generation

[Verse 1: Roger Daltrey, Pete Townshend, & John Entwistle]
People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we g-g-get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Yeah, I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)

This is my generation
This is my generation, baby
