Karaoké Kids of the Baby Boom The Bellamy Brothers

Our daddies won the war then they came home to our moms

They gave 'em so much love that all us kids were born

We all grew up on

Mickey Mouse and hula hoops

Then we all bought BMW's and brand new pick-up trucks

And we watched John Kennedy die one afternoon

Kids of the Baby Boom

It was a time of new prosperity in the USA

All us fortunate offsprings never had to pay

We had sympathy for the devil and the Rolling Stones

Then we got a little older we found Haggard and Jones

A generation screaming for more room

Kids of the Baby Boom

Kids of the Baby Boom

We had freedom we had money

Baby Boom

Here in the land of milk and honey

Counting our chickens way too soon

Kids of the Baby Boom

Now we all can run computers and we all can dance

We all have Calvin Klein written on our underpants

And at six-o'clock like robots we turn on the news

Watch those third world countries deal out more abuse

Remember the first man on the moon

Kids of the Baby Boom

Kids of the Baby Boom

We had freedom we had money

Baby Boom

Here in the land of milk and honey

Counting our chickens way too soon

Kids of the Baby Boom

As our lives become a capsule they send to the stars

And our children look at us like we came from Mars

As the farms disappear and the sky turns black

We're a nation full of takers never giving back

We never stop to think what we consume

Kids of the Baby Boom

Kids of the Baby Boom

We had freedom we had money

Baby Boom

Here in the land of milk and honey

Counting our chickens way too soon

Kids of the Baby Boom

Our optimism mingles with the doom
