"'My Generation (Part Two).' has the line 'Hang your hair down in your eyes, you';ll make a million dollars' It's hysterical."

One of your favs eh?

My Generation Part 2 doesn't have such a line in it... The Talking Seattle Grunge Blues does however...
And the full chorus goes

Hey hey my my
Rock and roll will never die
Just hang your hair down in your eyes
You'll make a million dollars


The chorus for My Generation part 2 goes

Here's to hair gel
Hanging out at the health spa
Using Condom sense
And watching L.A. Law
Here's to drum machines, stone washed jeans
credit cards and fax machines
Big-bow headed chicks and frat guys
Wearing $40.00 tie-dyed T-shirts
And big bold paisley ties
Here's to living off dad as long as ya can
And blending in with the crowd
My generation should be proud
