Lyrics:
People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
This is my generation
This is my generation, baby
Why don't you all f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to dig what we all s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm not trying to cause a big s-s-sensation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
This is my generation
This is my generation, baby
Why don't you all f-fade away (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
And don't try to d-dig what we all s-s-say (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm not trying to cause a b-big s-s-sensation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
I'm just talkin' 'bout my g-g-generation (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
This is my generation
This is my generation, baby
People try to put us d-down (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Just because we g-g-get around (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Things they do look awful c-c-cold (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
Yeah, I hope I die before I get old (Talkin' 'bout my generation)
This is my generation
This is my generation, baby

Almost sixty years old and still the fight song of the rebel youth, that is rock and roll !

[@jeantetreault132]

Keith Moon was simply outstanding, in this song. Just love the way he performed, as a a drummer. He was one of the best timekeepers, in terms of Rock n Roll music, among many others throughout his whole entire generation, if you really want to know my honest opinion. Unfortunately, Keith Moon has most certainly died much too young, before he got to grow old. Thank you! Johnny, Montréal, Canada 🇨🇦

He had nothing on Bonham!

[@treblesix8730]

@Lee Jeffords Indie A&R @mojostyles1 Rolling stone magazine had Mooney third greatest ever, behing Bonham and Ginger Baker.

[@EAMCFC]

​@@juliemanarin4127I disagree, Bonham is the best drummer, but it's not like Moonie was a million miles away, his playing style was different in a way but still manic and brilliant. I think what separates them is Bonzo's drumming was filled with plenty of new techniques for the time that were simply outstanding and revolutionised the definition of rock along with the rest of zeppelin whereas moons insane energy really worked in his favour and made a lot of songs recorded by the who. So in short terms, you're right. Long term, it's a lot deeper

"Roger Daltrey has also commented that he had not rehearsed the song prior to the recording, was nervous, and he was unable to hear his own voice through the monitors. The stutter came about as he tried to fit the lyrics to the music as best he could, and the band decided it worked well enough to keep." Yo welcome

[@malcolmthompson597]

I have heard the Pete Townshend demo of this song, and there was stuttering on the demo.....

[@NmpK24]

People don't realize how far ahead of its time this song and band was. Theres punk, hard rock, prog rock in there ten years before it happened, lots of key changes, a bass guitar solo!! Practically unheard of in popular music of the time and even now. Back in those days, bands used to be pretty boys smiling and wearing matching suits. Then along came the Who, the first proper band. Not a backing band for a lead singer or 2 songwriters. 4 real musicians.

As a Baby Boomer we thought it could only get better in the 60s and now we are living through a shitstorm of PC Crap and religious freakery. So sad. Where did it all go so wrong? Can't just blame Thatcher and BLIAR for it all, although they were in the forefront of the descent.
