<pre>
<pre>*  Oh yeah, what we're living in (let me tell ya)
  It's a wonder man can eat at all
  When things are big that should be small
  Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us
  And I'm giving all my love to this world
  Only to be told
  I can't see
  I can't breathe
  No more will we be
  And nothing's going to change the way we live
  'Cause we can always take but never give
  And now that things are changing for the worse,
  See, its a crazy world we're living in
  And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
  Is all we have to give these


It's a wonder man can eat at all
※ Futures made of virtual insanity now
When things are big that should be small
  Always seem to, be governed by this love we have
Who can tell what magic spells we'll be doing for us
  For useless, twisting, our new technology
And I'm giving all my love to this world
  Oh, now there is no sound for we all live underground
Only to be told
I can't see
I can't breathe
No more will we be
And nothing's going to change the way we live
Cos' we can always take but never give
And now that things are changing for the worse
Oh, it's a crazy world we're living in
And I just can't see that half of us immersed in sin
Is all we have to give these -


Futures made of virtual insanity
⁑ And I'm thinking what a mess we're in
now Always seem to, be
  Hard to know where to begin
govern'd by this love we have
  If I could slip the sickly ties that earthly man has made
For useless, twisting, our new
  And now every mother, can choose the color
technology Oh, now there is no sound
  Of her child
for we all live underground
  That's not nature's way
  Well that's what they said yesterday
  There's nothing left to do but pray
  I think it's time I found a new religion
※Whoa, it's so insane
  To synthesize another strain
  There's something in these
  Futures that we have to be told


Woah - it's so insane
Futures made of virtual insanity now
To synthesize another strain
Always seem to, be governed by this love we have
There's something in these
For useless, twisting, our new technology
Future's that we have to be told
Oh, now there is no sound for we all live underground
