Generation Landslide '81 - Live

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 battalions 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
