Generativity Lyrics & Tabs by Marcus Nordlund
Generativity
guitar chords lyrics
You are one lucky bastard
You are one of the few
But the jargon you've mastered
Doesn't ring very true
'Cause there's one word you're missing:
Ge-ne-ra-'ti-vi-ty Which is why you are pissing
on the family tree.
The retirement cake's been sat on
There's snot on the relay baton
I'm not asking you to empathise
Feel no pressure to be old and wise
I'm not asking you to get with it
I'm just asking you to give a shit
You selfishly defend the status quo
Too lazy to take in what you don't know
I'm just asking you to give a shit
You selfishly defend the status quo
Too lazy to take in what you don't know
Eloi, O Eloi beware
How quickly decadence becomes despair
You are one lucky fucker
But you still have the nerve
To consume with a pucker
what you do not deserve
And there'll be no leftovers
generativity-wise
when you're covered in clover
and we're cannibalized.
The retirement cake's been sat on
There's snot on the relay baton
I try to reason when all reason's fled,
try to reason with an absent head:
Is it in the clouds or up your arse?
Is this tragedy or is it farce?
Look at all the money people spend on you
Look at all the young ones who depend on you
You hover in your golden parachute,
Oblivious when others get the boot
