Cyber Month Jingle

Gen Cyber Safe is the safest generation

No matter when you’re born, it’s a cyber revelation

We’re all on the internet connecting our nation

So let’s come together and share our information

(Verse 1: Gen Z)

No cap, this verse is serving facts, that’s the tea

If you understood that sentence, you can speak Gen Z

We keep up to date with trends in slang, dance and fashion

So automated updates are my generation’s passion

Anti-virus software makes my tech work for me

‘Cause cyber criminals give us the ick, lowkey

Vocal, spoken (young): “Wow, this verse is giving!”

(older): “Giving… what?”

(Verse 2: Millennials)

We grew up on dial-up and now we’re always online

I’m so Millennial, I made accounts for all my felines

Social media pro, too many handles to count

So ask me about phishing, ‘cause my knowledge astounds

Easy typos, strange links, unexpected news

Unknown sender? #BlockThemBoo

(Chorus)

Gen Cyber Safe is the safest generation

No matter when you’re born, it’s a cyber revelation

We’re all on the internet connecting our nation

So let’s come together and share our information

(Verse 3: Gen X)

We started making mix tapes and now we’re streaming

Forgot about Gen X? Yeah, you must be dreaming

We backed up our media before the internet

Episodes and memories on video cassette

Now we copy to the cloud every MP3 and GIF

Lose our data to ransomware? Ugh, as if!

Vocal, spoken: “Cyber criminals? Talk to the hand.”

(Verse 4: Baby Boomers)

I grew up with the hippies. Yeah, I’m tough, I’ll never tire

Baby Boomer here, gonna set this verse on fire

4 words together, over 15 characters long

This verse is like my passphrase, unforgettable and strong

An example of a passphrase is TurnipWinterDoodleShout

Make one for every account and then peace out!

Vocal, spoken: “Take it away, Silent Generation.”

(“Verse” 5: Silent Generation)

silence

Vocal, spoken (enthusiastic and genuine): “Oh that’s right”

(Chorus)

Gen Cyber Safe is the safest generation

No matter when you’re born, it’s a cyber revelation

We’re all on the internet connecting our nation

So let’s come together and share our information

(Verse 6: Gen Alpha)

I typed and swiped and clicked before I could walk

I’m Generation Alpha and I’m new on the block.

Everything I know I learned from those older than me

Like keeping data private and spotting what’s phishy

With new threats on the rise, the kids will lead the way
