New Power Generation

Lay down your funky weapon

Yeah y'all, here we go

Pumpin' the big noise in the 90's

Pardon me for living, but this is my world too

I can't help that what's cool to us might be strange to you

Pardon me for breathing, can we borrow some of your air?

The problem with you and your kind is that you don't know love is there

Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor

Making love and music's the only things worth fighting for

We are the new power generation, we want to 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, but there's something under my hair

I bet you thought the lights were on but no one's living there

You think that if you tell enough lies they will see the truth?

I hope they bury your old ideas the same time they bury you

Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor

Making love and music's the only thing worth fighting for

We are the New Power Generation, we want to 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

We are the new

We are the new, we are the new

Making love and music

New power, we stand

Pardon us for caring, we didn't know it was against the rules

Shout it out

If we only want to love one another

Then tell me now who's the fool

(Tell me, tell me)

No father, no mother, no sister, no brother, nobody can make me stop

Said if you didn't come to party child, I think you better get up offa my block

Lay down your funky weapon, come join us on the floor

Making love and music's the only thing worth fighting for

We are the New Power Generation, we want to 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

Why don't you just be happy, baby

We are the New Power Generation, we want to 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

New Power Generation

You've got to rearrange

We are the New Power Generation

You've gotta give up all the fight

We gotta try to love one another, baby

We are the New Power Generation

We are the New Power Generation
