    Born into Nixon, I was raised in hell
    A welfare child where the teamsters dwelled
    The last one born, the first one to run,
    My town was blind by refinery sun

    My generation is zero
    I never made it as a working class hero
    21st century breakdown
    I once was lost but never was found
    I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
    To the 20th century deadline

    I was made of poison and blood
    Condemnation is what I understood
    From Mexico to the Berlin Wall
    Homeland security could kill us all

    My generation is zero
    I never made it as a working class hero
    21st century breakdown
    I once was lost but never was found
    I think I'm losing what's left of my mind
    To the 20th century deadline

    We are the cries of the class of 13
    Born in the era of humility
    We are the desperate in the decline
    Raised by the bastards of 1969

    My name is no one, your long lost son
    Born on the 4th of July
    Raised in the barnyards of heroes and cons
    Left me for dead or alive

    There is the war that's inside my head
    That questions the results and lies
    While breaking my back 'til I'm damn near well dead
    When enough ain't enough to survive

    I am an agent, a worker, a pawn
    My debt to the status quo
    The scars on my hands are a means to an end
    It's all that I have to show

    I'm taking a loan on my sanity
    For the redemption of my soul
    Well, I am exempt from this tragedy
    And the 21st century fall

    I praise Liberty
    The freedom to obey
    It's a song that strangles me
    Well, don't cross the line

    Oh, dream, America, dream
    I can't even see
    From rainstorms 'til dawn
    Oh, bleed, America, bleed
    Believe what you read
    From heroes and cons
