Starting off, this is a brand new day
Making time to dream of brand new ways
To believe in what he's got left in store
But only to find there isn't all that gold

What did I tell you
What did I tell you now
What did I tell you
Hate to say I told you so

Generation Y has kept him glad
He believed in all the pretty things they said
Never realizing there was something odd
He was just as special as a billion more

What did I tell you
What did I tell you now
What did I tell you
Hate to say I told you so
What did I tell you
What did I tell you now
What did I tell you
Hate to say I told you so
