| My generation
|
| My generation
|
| The cities all wrapped up
|
| I saw the best minds of my generation
|
| Running on empty, superglued to the TV
|
| Dreaming of prosperity
|
| Talking incessantly
|
| Saying nothing
|
| Sleeping on platforms at train stations
|
| Sipping chemical cocktails
|
| Alive to the Universe
|
| Dead to the World
|
| Hallucinating delusions of media reality in Camden Town, Desperate in the
|
| pursuit of cool
|
| He’s in a suit, she’s in a straight jacket
|
| 7−11 nightmares at 3am. |
| lay low.
|
| «and the moon is quiet and holy»
|
| Watch all the bridges collide
|
| And I think we might have to lay low, for a while
|
| I saw the best minds of my generation
|
| Caught up in the virtual reality of living
|
| Memorizing pin numbers and secret codes
|
| Swaying robotically to non-existent rhythms
|
| Flashing memberships to clubs so exclusive
|
| Nobody belongs
|
| Scared shitless, witless, clueless, useless, tight-lipped, tight-fisted,
|
| tight-assed, half-assed, ass-licking, coke-sniffing, money grabbing,
|
| ego-jabbing
|
| Lay low.
|
| Ass-licking, coke-sniffing, money grabbing, ego-jabbing
|
| Lay low.
|
| Sniveling, groveling, moaning, groaning
|
| Sniveling, groveling, moaning, groaning
|
| Sniveling, groveling, sniveling, groveling
|
| Sniveling, groveling, sniveling, groveling
|
| «and the moon is quiet and holy»
|
| Watch all the bridges collide
|
| And I think we might have to lay low, for a while
|
| Jesus said «Lay down your arms.» |
| Jesus said «Children come home.»
|
| The city’s all wrapped up in plastic like an electronic cocoon
|
| If you lay in the street you can hear it humming
|
| Building up slowly from underground
|
| If you close your eyes you can observe the blueprint
|
| The man-made DNA that spirals breathlessly out of control
|
| As synapses collapse, bridges snap, to a restless utopia:
|
| Nutopia
|
| Now the rain has arrived, and I think we might have to lay low, lay low.
|
| Watch all the bridges collide, and I think we might have to lay low
|
| Jesus said «Lay down your arms.» |
| Jesus said «Children come home.»
