Sons of 1984 — текст песни (Todd Rundgren)

Open your eyes and see

The world I couldnt change for you

Reach out your hand and take

The world that will belong to you



We were on our way to a better day

And the spirit was in us all

But as time went by we fell by the wayside

Maybe youll be the last to fall



You are the only ones

There is nobody left but you

You are the chosen ones

There is nobody else to choose



Back when I was young, my hope was strong

But the time blew it all to hell

If I thought I knew what was good for you

I would have gone and done it for myself



Worlds of tomorrow

Life without sorrow

Take it because its yours

Sons of 1984



I can still see the great panorama of hate

Being cleansed by our loving hands

But the brothers broke stride, the sisters cried

Now you have to start all over again
