bash script, pipe and parameters

lets say I have 'generic.sh' script like this:

Code:
#!/bin/bash
more $1
echo $2 $3 $4
exit
and start it with:

Code:
echo "testdata" | ./generic.sh 'value2' 'value3' 'value4'
but, it doesn't display:
testdata value2 value3 value4

I think I've solved it, pipe is the last argument, not first.
