(Joan Baez) We're the children of the 80's, haven't we grown We're tender as a lotus and we're tougher than stone And the age of our innocence is somewhere in the garden We like the music of the 60's We think that era must have been nifty Flower children, Woodstock and the War Dirty scandals, cover-ups and more Oh, but it's getting harder to deceive us We don't care if Dylan's gone to Jesus Jimi Hendrix is playing o We know Janis Joplin was the rose And we also know that that's the way it goes With all the stuff that she put in her arm Don't be alarmed We are the children of the 80's, haven't we grown We're tender as a lotus and we're tougher than stone And the age of our innocence is somewhere in the garden Some of us are the sisters and the brothers Who prefer the nighttime for our cover A leather jacket and a single golden earring Hang out at discos, rock shows, lose our hearing Letras de cancionesPut tattoos all up and down our thighs Do anything our parents would despise Take uppers, downers, blues and reds and yellows Our brains are turning to Jello We think that life is overrated Loneliness was underestimated We are looking forward to the days When we live inside of a purple haze Where the salvation of the soul is rock and roll We are the children of the 80's, haven't we grown We're tender as a lotus and we're tougher than stone And the age of our innocence is somewhere in the garden Some of us may offer a surprise Recently have you looked in our eyes Maybe we're your conscience in disguise We're well informed and we are wise Please stop telling us lies We know Afghanistan's invaded We know Bolivia's dictated We know America's inflated And although we do not move in masses We have lit our candles from your ashes We are the warriors of the sun The golden boys and the golden girls For a better world We are the children of the 80's, haven't we grown We're tender as a lotus and we're tougher than stone And the age of our innocence is somewhere, somewhere in the garden From Letras Mania
