E Generation
Zebrahead Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Mix, mix, stop now move around
Steppin' up to the mic.
Mic 1, mic 2.
Rollin' step out the bathroom stall we got pharmacudials and alcohol.
Watch smoke and the light bouncin' off the wall.
With the disco hall, disco ball.
Cause the devil may care, but I'm not the devil so there.
(middle finger up in the air)
To the people that judge us by what we wear and stare, like we care.
[Chorus]
We come to play! We come to play!
Spin the 4U, yo hey deejay.
We come to play! We come to play!
Kids of the U to the S to the A.
Mix, mix, stop now move around.
Mix, mix, stop now move around.
A sensation, aviation, deviation, e-generation.
A sensation, aviation, deviation, e-generation.
Midnight time to head on out like a fetus.
Call up the crew and tell em where to meet us.
To another club, cause that's where the weed is.
Papa smurf got us on the E-list.
So we jump in the ride.
Navigator chrome on the side (yo man, you good to drive?).
He said 'I don't think it's far'.
So we all went along, so we all went along.
I don't think it's far.
Cause God may care, but I never met God anywhere.
(middle finger up in the air)
To the people that judge us by the color of our hair and stare, like we care.
[Chorus]

As the night progresses, the group intends to go to another club because there's where the drugs are. The singer talks about how they have secured a spot on the E-list.
