Well, I'm witnessing something I'd never have dreamed of even a couple of years ago 
Families screaming and running about, ringing their hands in the sky, singing 
"No, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
Tell us it's a lie!" 
We're running out, running out 
(You know we're running out) 
We're running out, running out 
(You know we're running out) 
We are running out of hope, and we are running out of love 
And we're running out of everything that I've been dreaming of 
And we are running out of oil, we are low on light and air 
And we're running out and digging holes and finding nothing there 
It just ain't fair, running out 
(You know we're running out) 
There's nothing there, running out 
(You know we're running out) 
Now, the car won't go, and the pool won't heat 
And we're eating beans 'cause there ain't no meat 
And the lamps which once lit up our street no longer light the way 
So we go to bed when the sun sinks low 
'cause it's cold at night and the heat won't go 
And the television studio closed down the other day 
Hey, hey, hey, hey, running out 
(You know we're running out) 
Hey, hey, hey, hey, running out 
(You know we're running out) 
Oh, no, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
Tell us it's a lie! 
Oh, no, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
Tell us it's a lie! 
Oh, no, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
Tell us it's a lie! 
Oh, no, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
No, no, no, not our generation 
Tell us it's a lie!...
