Generation Landslide '81 Lyrics

Please clean your plate dear the Lord above can see ya Don't you know people are starving in Korea Alcohol and razor blades and poison and needles, Kindergarten people, they used 'em they need 'em The over indulgent machines were their children And there wasn't a way down on earth here to cool 'em Cos they look just like humans at Kresge's and Woolworths But decadent brains were at work to destroy Brats in batallions were ruling the streets and Generation landslide, close the gap between them And I laughed to myself at the men and the ladies Who never conceived those billion dollar babies La da da da daa Militant mothers hiding in the basement Using pots and pans as their shields and their helmets Molotov milk bottles heaved from pink highchairs While mothers' lib burns birth certificate papers And dad gets his allowance from his sonny the dealer Who's pubic to the world but involved in high finance Sister's out til 5, doing banker son's hours But she owns a Mazarotti that's a gift from his father Stop at full speed, at 100 miles per hour The Colgate invisible shield finally got 'em And I laughed to myself at the men and the ladies Who never conceived those billion dollar babies La da da da daa No one gives an oink about prom night or football Cos just getting home from school safe is a gamble and a blessing Girlsies play with girlsies and boysies with boysies Bored with one another, like old broken Christmas toysies Kids are all hot and their parents so are noisy And I laughed to myself at the men and the ladies Who never conceived those billion dollar babies
