Jonathan White - Deadly Generation Lyrics

Story of a man
A real tear-jerker
Fired from his job
He was a factory worker
The flame of the gasoline
Burns magenta
You can't miss with a gun
If you're aiming dead centre

You always wanted more
More than you had before
Same old 3 damn minutes
Something 'bout winners all working on their campaign
Are all the fingers burning where you're from
Pissing in the wind again
Hanging out the fan mail
On the brains of children

Plasticine
Limousine
Polythene
Trampoline
Village green
Mezzanine
Ice Machine

Picture of a man
With a good education
High powered job
With the United Nations
Bye bye economical sustentation
A fully paid-up member
Of a deadly generation

We always wanted more
Than we ever had before
Give us our fifteen minutes
Riding in a Cadillac and making out like John Holmes
He could go all night
Hung like a stalactite
So this is freedom is it
Hook me on the medicine
And flush me down the plughole

Go-between
Gelatine
Tape machine
Histamine
Ketamine
Pinball machine
Aquamarine
Men's magazine
Polystyrene
Fraudulent scheme
Steve McQueen
Vaseline
Submarine
Nicotine
Tambourine
