Never Gave A Damn

We jogged thru the parks to mugger delight
We raced ourselves home, for hours at night
We tamed the waves of the oceans might
And we smogged the sky that stole our sight

and we never gave a damn
never gave a damn
never gave a big god damn

We banned the bomb, but fought the war
We gave Blacks pride, but they wanted more
We spent our millions to even the score
To find a "Great Society" and then ask "What for?"

and we never gave a damn
never gave a damn
never gave a big god damn

We murdered a president just to watch him die
We took every drug, but never got high,
We thought we found the truth, and never gave it a try
And we stood on the moon with no wings to fly

and we never gave a damn
never gave a damn
never gave a big god damn

and we never gave a damn
never gave a damn
never gave a big god damn
