Age Of Spin lyrics

Well, you young heads missed that sh*t. You're all too young. You don’t remember that. -How old are you, young, man? You. -Twenty-four. Twenty-four? You don't know sh*t. You don't know sh*t! You gotta Google sh*t that I lived through. See, this is why I lock motherf*ckers’ phones up. Seriously. Because the young kids, you guys need to take a break from that– We all need to break just from that technology, just for a minute. You know, I'm from a different time, young man. A dark time to you. I'm from a time that I didn't even used to know who was on the phone until I answered the sh*t. Like, when tragedy used to strike.
I remember I was 12 years old, and the teacher wheeled a television set into the classroom. You remember these days? And she turned it on to one of three channels. And she said, “Class, the space shuttle is taking off, and we're all gonna watch it take off.” Man, that sh*t was going great for like, three to five minutes. That's right. You remember. It f*cking exploded! Right on television. Everybody on board, dead. Immediately presumed dead. It was so bad, the teacher looked at all the kids and was like… “You can go home.” It was a goddamn national tragedy. This was Cold War America. The Russians were laughing at us.

My point is, for a guy your age wouldn't even know the pain, because in your generation, it's like the space shuttle blows up every f*cking day. How can you care about anything when you know every goddamn thing? I’m getting over one cop shooting, and then another one happens, and then another one happens, and another one happens. I’m crying about Paris, and then Brussels happens. I can't keep track of all this sh*t. So you just give the f*ck up. That’s the hallmark of your generation, and that's f*cked up, because your generation lives in the most difficult time in human history. This is the age of spin. The age where nobody knows what the f*ck they're even looking at. Did you know that Planned Parenthood was for abortions? It's for people that don’t plan things out at all. That's right. So, a guy your age doesn't really know how he feels. Are you pro-choice? Are you anti-consequences? What does it all really mean? It's easier not to care for you. But for us, we were trained to care. We were raised that way.
