(piano noodling, sounding like Sad Girl)

(drum machine noodling, w/ Mike, Murray & Jian discussing studio issues)

(Mike speaking)

A lot of...

(Murray speaking)

It's better than the actual...

(Mike speaking)

Second key...oh, that sounds like stereo to me...

(Jian speaking)

You're just gonna have to watch every ?transfer?...

(Murray speaking)

I know...but I don't want...

(Jian speaking)

Well, you...

(guitar strumming, song begins)

(Dave on lead)

My poor generation

We're on for the ride

An ocean of choices

Pulled out on the tide

(Dave & Jian)

We're handed a beach ball

(All)

And told to pick a side

(Dave)

Drowned in information

(All)

My poor generation

(Dave & Jian)

My poor generation

Don't know what it means

(All)

The shock of the mountain

Compared to magazines

(Dave, w/ Jian & Mike)

Is it timeless and holy

Or just a hill of beans?

(Dave & Mike)

Lost in Union Station

(All)

My poor generation

(Dave, w/ others singing "ahhhh")

Maybe we're just looking in a fun house

Mirror and lovin' our reflection

Maybe corporate raiders got too greedy in the 80's

(Dave, w/ others singing "ooooh")

And bought up all the direction

(All)

Wooo..ooo...ooo...ooo...ooo

(guitar solo)

(Dave)

My poor generation

Airborn with nothin' to land on

Baffled by bullshit

Grounded with nothin' to stand on

(Dave & Mike)

Poor little fat cats

(Dave)

Nothin' anyone planned on

Unique in all creation

(All)

My poor generation

(Dave)

Woah...

(All)

My poor generation

(Dave)

Woah......

(All)

My poor generation
