Look Outside Yourself
Baby if you really love me
You had better understand
That the silver in your pocket
Ain't no measure of a man
*And though the fortunes of our fathers
We aspire to rise above
When you're born into a breed
You're signed in blood*
**I'm a poor mans son
Workin' all night long
Got a bad guitar
And a simple song
You're a rich mans daughter
Look at what you've done
You went and fell in love
With a poor mans son**
Baby you were born in splendor
To a house of wealth and fame
Your mother was a spender
And you grew up on a stage
You had better understand
That the silver in your pocket
Ain't no measure of a man
*And though the fortunes of our fathers
We aspire to rise above
When you're born into a breed
You're signed in blood*
**I'm a poor mans son
Workin' all night long
Got a bad guitar
And a simple song
You're a rich mans daughter
Look at what you've done
You went and fell in love
With a poor mans son**
Baby you were born in splendor
To a house of wealth and fame
Your mother was a spender
And you grew up on a stage

Imploding nuclear family
Disfunctionally correct
Condom-ed to monoality
This is generation x
Toxified, sterilised
Computerised, victimised
Imploding nuclear family
Disfunctionally correct
Condom-ed to monoality
This is generation x
Dehumanised, ostracised
Lobotomised, desensitised, illegalised
Face to interface, lost in cyberspace
Lonely as the grave, we surf the
Microwave
As we file away our memories
For instructions see above
We thank the lord for listening
And fax him all of our love
