| We’re telling tales of communication
|
| Tall orders to fulfil
|
| And the pastiche we’ve invented
|
| Is serving every man
|
| A love pays love for lying
|
| A true lie to believe
|
| Ideas of lust and dying
|
| All carefully conceived
|
| We are the second generation
|
| We are a nation of innovation
|
| We are the second generation
|
| We are a nation …
|
| America, america
|
| The western dream is gone
|
| America asleep
|
| Since mulberry’s too long
|
| Dry thoughts for the tenant
|
| And still they come and go
|
| So come and try to tell me
|
| Things i already know
|
| We are the second generation
|
| We are a nation of innovations
|
| We are the second generation
|
| We are a nation …
|
| And now you stare at me so doggish
|
| But your eyes won’t make me cry
|
| The flowers of romance are trembling
|
| Another chance, another lie
|
| Another shadow for new fires
|
| Ash-wednesday for the prey
|
| And still no-jesus for you
|
| Welcome to devastate
|
| We are the second generation
|
| We are a nation of innovations
|
| We are the second generation
|
| We are a nation of devastation
|
| We’re telling tales of communication
|
| Tall orders to fulfil
|
| And the creatures we’ve invented
|
| Are serving every man
|
| Now we are loving with reluctance
|
| Our hearts — they never grew
|
| We are meeting in a garden
|
| It’s the taming of the shrew
|
| And now you stare at me so doggish
|
| But your eyes won’t make me cry
|
| The flowers of romance are trembling
|
| Because our game was just a lie
|
| And in the end we stand alone
|
| All that we wanted … we want it
|
| We are the second generation
|
| We are a nation of innovations
|
| We are the second generation
|
| We are a nation of devastation
|
| Devastate …
|
| Devastate …
|
| Devastate …
