Life doesn’t have as many absolutes
As I thought it was an afterfluke
It seemed important at the time
All that worry turned to white

Like the library after the fires
I’ve become uninhabitable
A cinema of my own
Wild plans but I’m a great, great liar

And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did
And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did

Can you help me fall apart
Can you stop me at the start
In this buyer’s market I’m a possibility
But I wouldn’t take yes for an answer

A man without dreams is unsure like a question
The heartbreak years, the blackout tears
Born to late for success
Or born too soon to understand it

And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did
And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did

Say what you want she would not denied
The storm it couldn’t stop talking
The thought traps and the sex revolts
Are killing the dinosaurs

They said I’m your enemy before you ever met me
Don’t let them see the pain it gives em satisfaction
File us under complicated
The best way to know me is to leave

And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did
And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did

Would it make you feel better if I said it’s a guess
From the amen corner to the discotheques
I was today years old when I found out
These future ghosts still have their doubts

That can’t be my villain origin story
Even with these criminal energies
I still feel unredeemed
But with you I wash up clean

And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did
And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did

We have to forget in order to keep on living
I think about that a lot
American collective unconscious
History is what they tell us

The public, the private, the secret
It’s vitally important we talk and drink now
You look like you’re into ignition
Come see me I’m your bad decision

And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did
And the kids are having kids
Just like their parents did
