My generation
 My generation
 My generation
 My generation
 (The city's all wrapped up!)
 I saw the best minds of my generation running on empty
 Super-glued to the TV
 Dreaming of prosperity
 Talking incessantly, saying nothing
 Sleepin' 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 quite holey!
 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 & secret codes
 Swaying robotically to non-existant rhythms
 Flashing memberships to club "So Exclusive, Nobody Belongs"
 Scared shitless
 Witless
 Clueless
 Useless
 Tight-lipped
 Tight-fisted
 Tight-assed
 Half-assed (Lay low)
 Ass-lickin'
 Coke-sniffin'
 Money-grabbin'
 Ego-jabbin'
 (Lay low)
 Ass-lickin'
 Coke-sniffin'
 Money-grabbin'
 Ego-jabbin'
 Lay low... and the moon is quite holey!
 (Sniveling, groveling, moaning, groaning)
 (Sniveling, groveling, moaning, groaning)
 (Sniveling, groveling, sniveling, groveling, sniveling, groveling, sniveling, groveling)
 Watch all the bridges collide!
 And I think we might have to lay low for a while
 (Why, why, why, why!)
 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, into a restless utopia... Utopia!
 Now the rain has arrived, and I think we might have to lay low (A halo, halo)
 Wow! The rain has arrived, and I think we might have to lay low (A halo, halo)
 Jesus said, "Lay down your arms."
 Jesus said, "Children, come home!"

 For the next thirty or sixty days
 We urge you to play this record every day
 Play side one in the morning, before you leave your home
 Play side two in the evening
 If you will do this
 You will start the development of those traits in your personality
 That will enable you to make people like you, believe you, and trust you
