Don't Let Them Take You Down (Beautiful Day)

A new generation, now my whole world shakin'

We were born in flames, maiden names
Suburban homes, make your bones
Bite your lip, take the fifth
Know your rights, it's your life now

Don't let them take you down
It's a beautiful day
Don't let 'them them take you down
It's a beautiful day

Hurricanes, love in vain
Murphy's law, days of war
Crash and burn, live and learn
Fill the void, girls and boys now

Don't let them take you down
It's a beautiful day
Don't let them them take you down
It's a beautiful day

All the people, all the people run
All the while we're tryin' to find the sun

It's a beautiful day
Don't let them take you down
It's a beautiful day
Don't let 'them mess you 'round

It's a beautiful day
Don't let them them take you down
It's a beautiful day
Don't let them take you down

A lost generation, now my whole world is shakin' round
Don't let them take you down
A bad reputation and a dime store nation now
Don't let them take you down

And when it's my generation, now my whole world is breakin' my heart
Don't let them take you down
A lost generation, now my whole world shakin'
