What Is This Generation Coming to? Songtext
von Robert Mitchum

Trouble, Trouble, Trouble, Trouble
In the USA the teenager have the country in confusion
In the USA the teenager have the country in confusion
Rock n rollin′ all of the time
Have the parents out of their mind
Parents likin' Liberace
Kids is likin Elvis Presley

Trouble, Trouble
So they rock n rollin night and day
Bouncin′ up and down in the way they do
The parents shakin' their head and say
What is this generation comin' to?


All the parents say the children will grow up to be delinquents, oh
If the children only dance to the rock n roll and the calypso
Parents tell them they should only
Like the opera and symphony
But the young kids are too busy
Diggin′ Mr. Belafonte

Trouble, Trouble
So they rock n rollin night and day
Bouncin′ up and down in the way they do
The parents shakin' their head and say
What is this generation comin′ to?

When the kids is bouncin' up to the jukebox like the monkeys and frogs
All the newspapers they say that the teenagers goin′ to the dogs
But the kids don't go to the dogs,
That′s the truth and these are the facts
All the girls is changin' for chicks
All the fellows changin' for cats

Trouble, Trouble
So they rock n rollin night and day
Bouncin′ up and down in the way they do
The parents shakin′ their head and say
What is this generation comin' to?
