1. HELLO HOORAY



Hello! Hooray! Let the show begin
I've been ready
Hello! Hooray! Let the lights grow dim
I've been ready
Ready as this audience that's coming here to dream
Loving every second, every moment, every scream

I've been waiting so long to sing my song
I've been waiting so long for this thing to come
Yeah - I've been thinking so long I was the only one
Roll out! Roll out your American dream and its rescuits
I've been ready

Roll out! Roll out your circus freaks and hula hoops
I've been ready
Ready as this audience that's coming here to dream
Loving every second, every movement, every scream
I've been waiting so long to sing my song
I've been waiting so long for this thing to come
Yeah - I've been thinking so long I was the only one

I can stand here strong and thin
I can laugh when this thing begins
God, I feel so strong
I feel so strong

I'm so strong
I feel so strong
So strong
God, I feel so strong
I'm so strong






2. GENERATION LANDSLIDE




Please clean your plate, dear, The lord above can see ya
Don't you know people are starving in Korea?
Alcohol and razorblades and poison and needles
Kindergarten people, they used 'em they need 'em
The over- indulgent machines were their children
There wasn't a way down on earth here to cool 'em
Cause they looked just like humans at Kresges and Woolworth

But decadent brains were at work to destroy
Brats in battalions were ruling the streets saying
Generation Landslide close the gap between 'em
And I laugh to myself every man and the ladies dies
Who never conceived of those billions dollar babies

Militant mothers, hiding in the basement
Using pots and pans as their shields and their helmets
Molotov milk bottles heaved from pink high-chairs
While mothers limp burned, birth certificate papers
Dad gets allowance from his sonny the dealer
Who's pubic to the world, but involved in high finance

Sister's out 'til five doing banker's son's hours
But she owns a Maserati, that's a gift from his father
Stop at full speed at one hundred miles per hour
The Colgate invisible shield finally got 'em
And I laugh to myself every man and the ladies
Who never could see those billion dollar babies
