Every Generation

Kids hanging out on a Saturday night
Waiting on wheels wanna go for a ride
Cruising 'round town just feels right got to getaway
Blasting rock and hip hop they know
All dressed down with no place to go
A difficult age just taking it slow, wait for better days
Can't stop the wild and restless still the ritual goes on
Following the footsteps where their fathers used to run
Turn around and face the change
Young hearts all beat the same
The fire in the soul remains
Ooh with every generation
Young rebels have their time
Glory days are gonna shine
There's a brand new face waiting right behind
Every generation
Fashions go and come back around
And vinyl LPs still got a cool sound
Flashback to retro it's all new again
Fighting wars under different names
Losing daughters and sons we all feel the pain
Through the tears why don't things ever change
Between now and then
While the radio's still playing that familiar sweet love song
We still share the same desire we all need to belong
Turn around and face the change
Young hearts all beat the same
The fire in the soul remains
Ooh with every generation
Young rebels have their time
Glory days are gonna shine
There's a brand new face waiting right behind
Every generation
Some generations leave us hearoes of their day
With magic moments that still take our breaths away
Some will inherit all the politics and pain
Some will leave this world a better place
Turn around and face the change
Young hearts all beat the same
The fire in the soul remains
Ooh with every generation
Young rebels have their time
Glory days are gonna shine
There's a brand new face waiting right behind
Every generation yeah yeah yeah
Every generation
They keep comin' around
Ooh every generation
