Lyrics
We got zero rips left, no time to wasteWe’ve walked through fire, we’ve stared down fateWe’re Gen X loud, we can’t be tamedIf you bring your cancel card we will laugh in your faceZero rips left, zero rips leftWe’re too damn loud, and we ain’t done yet
We grew up in the shadows, out past curfew lightsNo seatbelts, no helmets, and we turned out all rightDrank from garden hoses, raised on grit and boneLatchkey kids, we built our own home
We got zero rips left, no time to wasteWe’ve walked through fire, we’ve stared down fateWe’re Gen X loud, we can’t be tamedIf you bring your cancel card we will laugh in your faceZero rips left, zero rips leftWe’re too damn loud, and we ain’t done yet
Boomer hands swung belts and sticksTold us “Go get the switch” — we knew the licksBut we swore we’d never raise ours that wayWe spoiled our kids, gave them brighter days
Boomer parents said “Don’t cry, or I’ll give you something to cry about”Feelings weren’t allowed, just push it down, shut your mouthNow our kids are grown, they just block and ghostCancel the ones who love them most
We’re done walking on eggshells for snowflake egosYou can’t cancel family, you can’t cancel your ownWe brought you into this world, don’t forget we can take you outRespect ain’t optional, it’s bloodline code
Parents aren’t punchlines, we’re the roots not the weedsBlock us all you want, we’re still in your DNAYou don’t get to ghost the people who raised youOur love built you, you don’t erase that
Two jobs, sacrifices, we gave our bestSports and dance, no time to restAnd this is the thanks, the cold returnCancel the parents who let you learn
You think you’re noble, but you’re just coldEntitled snowflakes with hearts on holdCutting bloodlines for some selfish prideWe’re done being quiet, we won’t be denied
We’ve been told to sit down, shut up, behaveFrom parents to kids, same damn cageBut we won’t stay silent, we’ve broken the chainsNow the world’s gonna feel this Gen X rage
We got zero rips left, no time to wasteWe’ve walked through fire, we’ve stared down fateWe’re Gen X loud, we can’t be tamedIf you bring your cancel card we will laugh in your faceZero rips left, zero rips leftWe’re too damn loud, and we ain’t done yet
Zero rips left, zero rips leftGeneration X, you won’t forget
Can’t Cure Stupid
All my rowdy friends are ’bout to get rowdierThese woke-ass babies need a little milk and a burpI’m cut from a cloth you can’t iron flatAin’t got a thing for hippies, commies, or that
Hard-workin’ hands, grease under my nailsThrowin’ wrenches in the garage, tellin’ tall talesAnd I go to church on Sunday, that’s my crossIf that offends you, well that’s your loss
We ain’t had it hard enoughIt’s time to wake the world up
Hey, it’s gettin’ pretty weakAnd it’s gettin’ pretty weirdGrown-ass people sheddin’ grown-ass tearsCryin’ whaaaa over pronouns and nounsC’mon, man, get the f*** outta town
Can’t cure stupid, heySnowflake meltdown, heyCryin’ whaaaa, crybaby soundsSnowflake meltdown, heyCan’t cure stupid, heySnowflake meltdown, heyCryin’ whaaaa all over the groundSnowflake meltdown, hey
Crybaby queen, flip the script on cueGaslight the truth, block and cancel, hide in disguise, never take blameSo fragile, egos snap overnightCan’t handle talk, can’t handle a fight
Dial 9-1-1, crocodile tearsHa ha ha ha haaaaaa, we see through the fears
Snowflake, heyDrama fake, heyTake no blame, then call me insaneCancel button’s your claim to fameWhaaaa whaaaaa, ba ha ha ha
Heaven forbid we fight for what we believe inMight lose some folks that ain’t worth keepin’Bitchin’ and moanin’, that’s your whole deal
Can’t cure stupid, heySnowflake meltdown, heyCryin’ whaaaa, we’re sick of your s***Can’t cure stupid, heySnowflake meltdown, heyAss whoopin’ time, whoop whoop whoopBoot in your ass, ba ha ha ha haaaaSnowflake meltdown, hey
Be the first one around the fire.
