  • Words:-
     
    I
  • When they look back at us and they write down their history
    What will they say about our generation?
    We're the ones who knew everything, still we did nothing
  • Harvested everything, planted nothing
     
    Well we lived pretty well in the wake of the goldrush
  • Floating in comfort on waves of our apathy
    Quietly knawing away at Her body
    Until we mortgage the future, bury our children
  •  
    II
    Storehouses full of the fruits we've been given
  • We send off the scragends to suckle the starving
    But still we can't feed this strange hunger inside
    Greedy, restless, unsatisfied
  •

  • I
     
    I was never much one for the great "big bang" theory
  • Going out in a blaze of suicidal glory
    Not foolish and brave these leaders of ours
    Just stupid and petty, unworthy of power
  •  
    II
     
  • Just a little leak here and a small error there
    Another square mile poisoned forever
    A series of sad and pathetic little fizzles
  • And out go the lights, never to return.

    I
     
  • The affair it is over, the passion is dead
    She stares at us now with ice in Her eyes
    But we turn away from these bitter reproaches
  • And take up distractions to forget what we're doing
     
    Well I stand on these hills and I watch Her at night
  • A thousand square miles and a million orange lights
    Wounded and scarred, She lies silent in pain
    Raped and betrayed in the cold acid rain
  •  
    II
     
  • And I wish and I wish and I wish and I wish
    We could start over again
    Yes I wish and I wish and I wish and I wish
  • We could win back Her love once again.
