"iGeneration" Lyrics:
And people tried to put us down, when iTunes bumped a post-Cold War sound.
My generation sat the at mecca of malls, Times Square, I'm there, Viacom installs.
So we hit the net while the Trade Center fell, New York met Hollywood, we ran like hell.
No Vietnam for us, yo, Iraq it's on. So who agreed upon this cowboy Genghis Khan?
The choice made, baby. Hey we take it back, logged in, dropped out, MTV took track.
They sold it back to us and claimed no correlation. The iMac, iPod, iGeneration.
And I'm waiting for the day we can get out. The world is ours, that's the story no doubt.
Wanna be more than info super highway traffic, wanna be more than a walking demographic?
CHORUS (x2)
"Hey! You're part of it." Talking about the iGeneration.
"Yeah! You're part of it." Talking about my iGeneration.
The iGeneration knew organization meant optimization and unification,
When imagination gave participation in creation of cultural manifestation.
The Berlin Wall fell and out we came, the post-Cold War kids laid claim to AIM.
LOL, OMG, yo, BRB. Space, colon, dash, closed parenthesis.
We sat at our laptops and typed away, and found that we each had something to say.
Web-logged our fears, our hopes and dreams. Individuated by digital means.
Fiber optic lenses, DVD, Coca Cola, Disney and Mickey D's.
Flat mass culture soon overtook hold; I hope I die before I get sold!
REPEAT CHORUS (x4)
This is the I-N-T-E-R-N-E-T ge-ne-ra-tion, see?
This is the I-N-T-E-R-N-E-T ge-ne-ra-tion, see?

This was made back when it seemed that the internet was unstoppable. Now it is just there.
I kinda wish they remastered this music video...this song brings memories...
This was acutely the very first song on my iPod.
Naruto ultimate fan flash brought me here
I still find myself quoting bits and pieces from this song because the lyrics bounced on the beat so well.
One of my favorite songs. 2020 still hits.
a reminder that you actually listened to this and thought "haha yeah this rules" at some point in the last 15 years.
2006? God, I feel old!
17 years and I immediately remember every beat and lyric. swag 😂
This sounded AMAZING all those years back. Oh, how things change. I miss feeling like I was part of something bigger because of technology.
*laying in a pool of my childhood*
Saw this live in Baltimore not too long ago. Awesome show
I remember hearing this several times in 2004 on the radio and I never knew who sang it until over a decade later. Glad I had closure.
Fond memories from the early 2000's. I saw MC Lars touring with Bowling for Soup in Portland.
The year is 2020 I faintly remember a lyric bouncing in my head. Almost like a fever dream i have vague memories of a time before wide use of smart phones. A simpler time. Finally after searching I find this song. A time capsule that brought back moments i thought lost forever to my mind.
I just found this on the December 2004 Mac addict disc!!
I hung out with both of them last night. He's pretty fucking smart. MC Lars graduated from Stanford a while back, he knows his way around
MC Lars is my hero.
Ah so this song wasn't some figment of my imagination.
the smile at the end is priceless
