oh! you pretty things

wake up you sleepy head

put on some clothes

shake up your bed

put another log on the fire for me

i've made some breakfast and coffee

look out my window what do i see

crack in the sky

and a hand reaching down to me

all the nightmares came today

and it looks as though they're here to stay

what are we coming to

no room for me

no fun for you

i think about a world to come

where the books were found by the golden ones

written in pain

written in awe

by a puzzled man who questioned

what we were here for

all the strangers came today

and it looks as though they're here to stay

oh you pretty things

don't you know you're driving your mamas and papas insane

oh you pretty things

don't you know you're driving your mamas and papas insane

let me make it plain

gotta make way

for the homo superior

look out at your children

see their faces in golden rays

don't kid yourself they belong to you

they're the start of the coming race

the earth is a bitch we've finished our news

homo sapiens have outgrown their use

all the strangers came today

and it looks as though they're here to stay

oh you pretty things

don't you know you're driving your mamas and papas insane

oh you pretty things

don't you know you're driving your mamas and papas insane

let me make it plain

gotta make way

for the homo superior
