The Blank Generations Lyrics

Suicidal thoughts and alienation Bourgeois comforts and self-detestation Amnesia and the downfall of a nation Imperial dreams then crushing reparation A fragile national psyche and hyperinflation A cleansing of the ego through Idolisation A new national pride and armoured restoration No moral judgement just abnegation So, this is what he wants to say to you – you’re the blank generation This is what he really thinks of you – you’re the blank generation Can’t you see: - You make a stand or you stand for nothing - There’s more to this than just your ego - Your silence is complicity Looking at the wreckage of a brutalised nation Eleven years of cuts and deprivation The shrinking of the state and rationalisation Rewards for the few and not the wider population Small town boredom and desperation A cultural desert of neglected desolation A feeling of disgust for ‘The Useless Generation’ Of baggy minds and druggy veneration So, this is what they want to say to you – you’re the blank generation This is what they really think of you – you’re the blank generation Can’t you see: - You make a stand or you stand for nothing - There’s more to this than just your ego - Your silence is complicity So, here we are – you had it all You had the best of everything – but now it’s gone Pull the ladder up – on those still to come You look down on them – for not being born the same time as you… Then you moan about foreigners and immigration, Cultural identity and isolation London has fallen to Islamification, Metropole elites and liberalisation You swallow all the lies about this glorious nation Pomp and circumstance for the big occasions Tug your forelock and know your station And turn your backs on the younger generations! So, this is what we want to say to you – you’re the blank generation This is what we really think of you – you’re the blank generation Can’t you see: - You make a stand or you stand for nothing - There’s more to this than just your ego - Your silence is complicity
