New Generation
The Super Insurgent Group of Intemperance Talent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our foods are made of preservation
We don't need your education
Things not set in proportion
Look around in our perspective
Don't acting to naive
You know it's all tentative
You know dogfoods are expensive
We are the starving brain
We are naked in the rain
This is no heaven sends
The new generation end
We are the hooker generation
We don't need your education
I only count my intuition
Things are going malfunction
Look around in our perspective
Don't acting to naive
You know it's all tentative
You know dogfoods are expensive
We are the starving brain
We are the naked in the rain
This is no heaven sends
The new generation end
The Super Insurgent Group of Intemperance Talent's song "New Generation" is a commentary on the state of society and the younger generation's disillusionment with the world. The lyrics are at once cynical and desperate, as they speak to the limitations and shortcomings of the modern world.
The opening lines, "We are the noodle generation, our foods are made of preservation," speak to the idea that today's youth are growing up in a world where mass-produced, artificial products are the norm. The next line, "We don't need your education," is a rallying cry against the traditional institutions of education and authority. The repeated refrain of "Things not set in proportion" echoes the sentiment that the values of society are skewed and dissociated from reality.
Throughout the song, the band implores listeners to "look around in our perspective" and not act too naively, calling attention to the harsh realities of life. The lyrics "We are the starving brain, we are naked in the rain" paint a vivid picture of the struggles and pain that many in the younger generation face. The final line, "The new generation end," seems to suggest that there may be no hope for the future, that the world has become so distorted and corrupted that there is no way forward.
