Elmo Blatch - Suburban Nightmares

The kids are all restless
Relentless and free
Growing up on park benches
And walking the streets
The nights all endless
Insomniac sprees
Floating through the ends
Indulging their needs

Educating hopeless
Computerised needs
And boredom controlled
By a chemical means
The days spent at soulless
Effortless screens
Prepared for the prime of life
By avoiding all feeling

Suburban nightmares
Long forgotten dreams
Slow sweet time
The bane of our species

The pills make it painless
And music sets you free
Dress exactly the same
Cause It makes you unique
The TV is shameless
Blameless disease
Content to pacify
And control your beliefs

Contextualise the totems that
Keep you on your knees
piss artists broken by
their failed wet dreams
The snake oil sellers
with a secret recipe
Youll only feel better
If you pay for remedy

Suburban nightmares
Long forgotten dreams
Slow sweet time
The bane of our species

Suburban nightmares
A Long forgotten dream
