Born In The '50s Lyrics - Outlandos D'amour - The Police

We were born 

Born in the fifties 

Born 

Born in the fifties 

Born 

Born in the fifties 

Born 

Born in the fifties 

My mother cried 

When President Kennedy died 

She said it was the Communists 

But I knew better 

Would they drop the bomb on us 

While we made love on the beach? 

We were the class they couldn't teach 

'Cause we knew better

We were born 

Born in the fifties

Born in the fifties 

Born 

Born in the fifties 

Born 

Born in the fifties 

They screamed 

When the Beatles sang 

And we laughed when the king fell down the stairs 

Oh, he should've known better 

Oh, we hated our aunts 

And we messed in our pants 

And we lost our faith and prayed to the TV 

Oh, we should've known better

We were born 

Born in the fifties

Born in the fifties 

Born 

Born in the fifties 

Born 

Born in the fifties 

We freeze like statues on the pages of history 

Living was never like this when we took all those G.C.E.'s 

Oh, you opened the door for us 

And then you turned to dust 

You don't understand us, so don't reprimand us 

We're taking the future, we don't need no teacher 

We were born 

Born in the fifties 

Born 

Born in the fifties

Born in the fifties

Born in the fifties 

We were born 

Born in the fifties

Born in the fifties

Born in the fifties
