lyrics

Whatever happened to your generation?
We all thought you’d do more with the times
But you put on suits and you cut your hair, and now you don’t seem to care
You look more and more like your folks each day

And now you want us all to toe the line
Get behind your man’s clandestine plan
But looking back, when we had the draft you wouldn’t have any of that
Hey Canada, I’m a big fan of the Vancouver lakes
And the shores at the Spanish Banks

You know, it hasn’t been long since you were my age
And you were ready for change
You believed in your head that tradition was dead
It was time for something new
So, you rolled up your sleeves; you said we got to believe
You won’t ever let this happen again
How could we be so naïve?

Whatever happened to that revolution?
Did I miss something I should’ve seen long ago?
As far as I can tell, it’s not going so well; we’re sitting pretty in hell
All I can say, there's gotta be another way to try to save face
While we make this world a better place
