Pavement - Fight This Generation Lyrics






Woke up to people so tall to you
I can't so I won't stand
Up chuck break luck
Look for the splinters you might see where they come in
Go down, sweet yardley
I won't let you fall down, sweet yardley
I won't let you fall down, here, now
Ah- god damn the guts and the gore
Nobody's crying 'cause there's no one to score for
Come up sweet randy
I won't let you fall, what you got to lose?
What you got to prove?
Who you gonna screw down here? ...now
Here now...I am...here now...I am...here...now...

Your life is about to-to come
Away from the mirror in a rainshed
Generation
Fight this generation...
Stop right

  36. K.... ....

    I remember when I thought I was funny.

  38. p.... ....

    @TheEnchantingWizard1 You don't like Pueblo? Damn, that's a classic!

  39. m.... ....

    @agentakb Don't take me so seriously. I smoke crack, I'm rude and have a bad attitude towards women.

    m.... ....

    how you holding up bro? hope all is well. sounds like you've had a pretty rough life

    m.... ....

    you can quit, we believe in you

  40. A.... B....

    @mrbasic86 I was trying to say that i relate to the song. "Fight This Generation". Since everyone at my school calls me gay, stupid, etc for listening to stuff like this, It feels as though I'm having to fight back. My age has nothing to do with it. That comment was simply to show that I can relate to this... Not for you to tear apart

  41. m.... ....

    @agentakb I was just trying to illustrate how stupid and immature people sound when they say shit like "I'm such and such age listening to this..." Lots of people in the world were already famous or already fucking when they were quite young so to brag about listening to less popular music at a certain age makes you sound kind of like how I sound by saying that I smoked crack and sucked cock when I was eight.

    m.... ....

    And you enjoyed every minute of it goddamnit!


    - These kids today, what can you do? Can't even get a good coke spittle blow-job outtof 'em! >:/

  42. A.... B....

    @mrbasic86 That's... um.. Why?

  43. m.... ....

    @agentakb I was selling my asshole to men over 50 when I was 14

  44. G.... T....

    @TheEnchantingWizard1 Yes, but you said that it was the exception to the last four songs having no value.

  45. G.... T....

    @TheEnchantingWizard1 Don't apologize. You could also say you stop on Kennel District if you like that one, as it is the very next one after Fight This Generation.

  46. A.... B....

    @pogi7 Agreed!

  47. A.... B....

    @pogi7 I do you listen to them. I know I will lose, but it's better than submitting to the terrible excuse of music that's played today

  48. A.... B....

    As 14 year old liking music like this... It really feels like I'm fighting this Generation..

    A.... B....

    Adam Bredlau Damn I was 11 when you wrote this .. now you’re 21 and I’m 18 lol. Still listen to pavement?

  49. c.... ....

    @iunek1 epic troll

  50. c.... ....

    @iunek1 LMAO!!!

  51. B.... ....

    first time I heard the album (when I wasn't paying attention to the song titles), I thought he was saying "Fuck this generation"

  52. W.... R....

    1:55 and on 4 lyfe

  53. l.... ....

    @Zatzzo a crazy statement.

  54. B.... T....

    ppl that don't get this are just sad, as in pathetic

  55. n.... ....

    It's more than kind of Ok.

  56. T.... S....

    one of the best songs!

  57. Z.... ....

    their worst song.

    Z.... ....

    words fail me

    Z.... ....

    The slide whistle alone puts it down to 3 / 10


    I CAN QUANTIFY _EVERYTHING!!_ \o/
