New Generation Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]People raise your voices,
don't get caught in that mess
Like a fly in a spider's web,
is it true more is [F]less
[Eb]Herded like a happy flock to the
[G]big T.V. [Eb]slaughter
[G]"Why don't you break that leash?"
said the heifer to the [F]sheep

[Verse 2]
It's [Eb]a new generat[Ab]ion
It's a hallucination
[G]It's a mys[Ab]tic vibration
It's just in[Eb]timid[Ab]ation
[G]It's the wil[Ab]l of the people
It's the church with the steeple
[G]It's the[Ab] sacred devotion
To an unhealthy [G]notion

[Verse 3]
[G]People raise your voices,
don't fall into that trap
When your friends and
your neighbors push
Why don't you push them [F]back?
[Eb]Don't you think the time has come
To stand [G]up and be [Eb]heard?
[G]Ain't no use to try and wait
For the magic [F]word
It's a [Eb]new gen[Ab]eration

[Verse 4]
It's an in[Eb]fatu[Ab]ation
[G]It's a bea[Ab]utiful body
Both erotic and deadly
[G]It's the fea[Ab]r of the future
It's just surgeons and sutures
[G]It's a s[Ab]pandex obsession
It's a lasting impression

[Verse 5]
Do [G]you [F]feel [Ab]the power?
Do you feel [G]the power?
Baptized in electronic water
Prodigal sons and beautiful daughters
With smiles and bows and rosy cheeks
And the righteous bath
Death to the freaks
Do you feel the power?
Do you feel the power?
From the man whose voice sounds
reassuring
Completely firm and so alluring,
Like's he's lived
a thousand times before
And seen the world from shore to shore
With the calmness and tranquility
that oozes credibility
With the wisdom and the confidence
that seem to scream out common sense
And it [Eb]makes you feel just like a babe
Daddy holding you tight and safe
[G]Hush babe everything's all [Gm]right,
[Eb]Daddy's gonna stay with you tonight
Now he's got you by the balls,
he can sell you anything at all
From mor[G]ality to diamond rings
to gen[Eb]ocide to magazines
From [G]re ligion to cosmology to
the end of a [F]democracy
[Eb]It's a new genera

[Verse 6]
[Ab]tion
It's a divine inspiration
[G]Always rea[Ab]dy to follow
Ever willing to swallow
[G]All the doc[Ab]tor's prescriptions
All the mystic inscriptions
[G]It's a s[Ab]pandex obsession
It's a lasting impression
[G]It's the[Ab] calm meditation
Of a tranquilized nation
[G]It's a hal[Ab]lucination

[Outro 1]
It's a new generation
