Tom:
Some people like to rock. Some people like to roll.
But me, I like to sit around to satisfy my soul.
I like my women short. I like my women tall.
And that's about the only thing I really dig at all.
Dor, spoken: Yeah, wail, man, wail.
Tom:
I belong to the beat generation.
I don't let anything trouble my mind.
I belong to the beat generation.
And everything's goin' just fine.
Dor, spoken: Weirdsville, yeah!
Tom:
Some people say I'm lazy and my life's a wreck.
But that stuff doesn't faze me, I get unemployment checks.
I run around in sandals, I never, ever shave.
And that's the way I wanna be when someone digs my grave.
Dor, spoken: What a beat in the White House.
Tom:
I belong to the beat generation, yeah.
I don't let anything trouble my mind.
Dor, spoken: Sneaky Pete, yeah.
Tom:
I belong to the beat generation.
When everything's goin' just fine.
Dor, spoken: Back on the road.
Tom:
I once knew a man who worked from nine to five.

Tom:
So keep your country cottage, your house and lawn so green.
I just want a one-room pad where I can make the scene.
Dor, spoken: So out it's in.
Tom:
I belong to the beat generation.
I don't let anything trouble my mind.
Like-a, I belong to the beat generation.
And everything's goin' just fine.

{1}Robert "Bob" McFadden (19 January 1923—7 January 2000)
was a singer and voiceover actor best known for his many
contributions to animated cartoons. In the late 1950s he
collaborated with Rod McKuen on "The Beat Generation" that
parodied the then-emerging literary community of the name.
On this record, McKuen used the pseudonym, "Dor," and later
claimed that Bill Haley & His Comets were the band used for
the recording session, though this has not been confirmed.
