"Bold Generation" lyrics - PRINCE

[Intro:]
Woooo!

Pardon me for living, but this is my world too
I can't help if what's cool to us might be strange to you
Pardon me for breathing, borrow some of your air
The trouble with your generation is you don't take time to care

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ain't got time for politics, we never fight no war
Makin' love and music is the only thing worth fighting for

[Chorus:]
Bold Generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do

Pardon me for thinking, there's something under my hair
Maybe you thought the lights were on but no one's living there
Pardon me for living, but this is my world too
I hope they bury your old ideas the same time they bury you

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ain't got time for politics, we never fight no war
Makin' love and music is the only thing worth fighting for

[Chorus:]
Bold Generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do

[Spoken: ?]

[Chorus:]
Bold Generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do

[Chorus:]
Bold Generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Your old fashioned music, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do

[Interlude]

Gonna change the world
Gonna change, gonna change, gonna change the world

[Breakdown:]
Bold Generation

Everybody say:

Bold Generation
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahhhh
Bold Generation
Bold Generation
Everybody say, everybody say, everybody everybody
Bold Generation
Uh-huh, baby

Pardon me for breathing, may I borrow some of your air
The trouble with your generation is you don't take time to care Take time to care

[Pre-Chorus:]
Ain't got time for politics, we never fight no war (Never fight no war)
Makin' love and music is the only thing worth fighting for

[Chorus:]
Bold Generation, we wanna change the world
The only thing that's in our way is you
Change the world, gotta change the world
Bold Generation, your old ideas
We're sick and tired of you telling us what to do
Don't tell us what to do
Bold Generation
Okay
