original broadway cast of flower drum song - the other generation (reprise) lyrics

Loading...

[susie]
well, the more i see of grownups
the less i want to grow

[children]
the more i see what they have learned
the less i want to know

[san]
and yet we’ve got to all grow up
there’s no place else to go

[susie]
i wonder why we’re all so poor
and they’ve got all the dough!

[children]
what are we going to do about
the other generation?

[luis]
how will we ever communicate
without communication?

[children]
when we are using words the modern way
[san]
they’re much too big to try to dig the colorful things we say

[susie]
if we could take over the training of
the other generation

[children]
we know we could improve them quite a lot

[baayork]
but they will never let us
they stay the way they met us
and so we’re simply stuck with what we’ve got

[susie]
you can’t improve them

[children]
the kids are simply stuck with what they’ve got

what are we going to do about
the other generation?

[baayork]
how are we going to stop them
when they start an explanation
of “what it used to mean to be a kid!”
[san]
the clean and wholesome fun they had
the innocent things they did!

[susie]
they all had a wonderful childhood in
the other generation

[san]
the games they played were bright and g+y and loud

[baayork]
they used to shout “red rover
red rover please come over”

[susie]
they must have been an awful droopy crowd when they were younger

[ensemble]
they must have been an awful droopy crowd
