Song
Speed Generation
Words by Byron Callisto. Music by Jupiter Sheep.
i knew a man and i became him for a moment
just to see what color he was inside
he was like a twisted web another world
an underwater dark green boneyard
i shudder just to think of what would
happen if he were to let go the people locked inside
the prince of terror piggy piggy killer from above
the hook and chain
and pounding heart
curtain rise
narrow eyes
demon’s hand
oh
i wonder why the world is full of stone cold killers
all hidden away inside
their mothers and their fathers must have beat them ‘til they bled
and turned them into dark green boneyards
or maybe it’s the way that things have always been
because chronos likes to eat his children
the laws of time and space require many to fear
some refuse to feel it
shallow hearts
safe and sound
underground
oh
I’m flying down the hall where
all my friends are
i’m moving like an angel
oh yeah, high and far
i’m not speed generation
i’m not speed generation, no
no i’m not speed generation
oh-oh-no no no no
his mother said the world would end in 1997
she said it would end in fire
his father sewed a tattoo upon his only son
a picture of a dark green boneyard
he became as many are
small and frightened of the dark
swept by the sound wave
yellow whoof of cannon and
the horses screaming in the flame
rushing through your shattered frame
narrow baby hook and chain
your metal doors are all in vain
heavy heart
marble halls
curtain falls
i’m flying down the hall where
all my friends are
i’m moving like an angel
moving like an angel
oh yeah, high and far
i’m not speed generation
i’m not speed generation, no
no i’m not speed generation
oh-oh-no no no no
i knew a man, and i became him for a moment
to see what color he was inside
oh-oh-no oh oh oh
and I’m flying down the hall where
all my, friends are
friends are
and I’m moving like an angel yeah
oh, high and far
but i’m not speed generation
no, no
i’m not speed generation
no, no
i’m not speed generation
oh, oh-oh-oh
not speed generation
ooh-ooh-ooh

i knew a man and i became him for a moment
