when all you needed was a little motivation
they pointed fingers and yelled 'dead generation'
when all you needed was a little care
you get nothing but an old white hair blank stare

have you ever need an ounce of love and all you got
was a whole lot of fucked?

so say your prayers
its the death of a nation
say your prayers
for the dead generation

condescending broad generalizations
get real old real fast
and just because most hippies and their parents have sold out
does not mean that you, your children, and their kids won't last

so say your prayers
its the death of a nation
say your prayers
for the death of a nation

aggressivness is godliness
combativeness is holiness
destructiveness is faithfulness
dealiness is devoutness
praying to a god that they created
and know damm well does not exist...
we find them on their knees
