0:00The Beat(en)Generation (Remastered) - THE THE
0:01When you cast your eyes upon the skylines
0:03Of this once proud nation
0:06Can you sense the fear and the hatred
0:09Grwoing in the hearts of its population
0:17And our youth oh youth
0:20Are being seduced
0:23By the greedy hands of politics
0:27And half truths
0:29The beaten generation
0:32The beaten generation
0:34Reared on a diet of prejudice
0:39And mis-information
0:40The beaten generation
0:43The beaten generation
0:46Open your eyes
0:49Open your imagination
0:57We're being sedated by the gasoline fumes
1:00And hypnotised by the satellites
1:03Into believing
1:04What is good and what is right
1:08You may be worshipping
1:09The temples of mammon
1:11Or lost in the prisons of religion
1:14But can you still walk back to happiness
1:17When you've nowhere left to run
1:22The beaten generation
1:25The beaten generation
1:27Reared on a diet of prejudice
1:31And mis-information
1:32The beaten generation
1:36The beaten generation
1:39Open your eyes
1:41Open your imagination
1:55Andif they send in the special police
2:01To deliver us from liberty
2:04And keep us from peace
2:07Then won't the words sit ill upon their tongues
2:10When they tell us justice is being done
2:13And that freedom lives
2:14In the barrels of a warm gun
2:20The beaten generation
2:23The beaten generation
2:26Reared on a diet of prejudice
2:30And mis-information
2:31The beaten generation
2:34The beaten generation
2:37Open your eyes
2:40Open your imagination
The Beat(en)Generation (Remastered) - THE THE
When you cast your eyes upon the skylines
Of this once proud nation
Can you sense the fear and the hatred
Grwoing in the hearts of its population
And our youth  oh youth
Are being seduced
By the greedy hands of politics
And half truths
The beaten generation
The beaten generation
Reared on a diet of prejudice
And mis-information
The beaten generation
The beaten generation
Open your eyes
Open your imagination
We're being sedated by the gasoline fumes
And hypnotised by the satellites
Into believing
What is good and what is right
You may be worshipping
The temples of mammon
Or lost in the prisons of religion
But can you still walk back to happiness
When you've nowhere left to run
The beaten generation
The beaten generation
Reared on a diet of prejudice
And mis-information
The beaten generation
The beaten generation
Open your eyes
Open your imagination
Andif they send in the special police
To deliver us from liberty
And keep us from peace
Then won't the words sit ill upon their tongues
When they tell us justice is being done
And that freedom lives
In the barrels of a warm gun
The beaten generation
The beaten generation
Reared on a diet of prejudice
And mis-information
The beaten generation
The beaten generation
Open your eyes
Open your imagination
