Oh, you pretty things, don’t you know
Written in pain, written in awe
I look out my window and what do I see?
You’re driving your mamas and papas insane?
Let me make it plain
And it looks as though they’re here to stay
You’re driving your mamas and papas insane?
What are we coming to?
You’re driving your mamas and papas insane?
You gotta make way for the homo superior
Don’t kid yourself they belong to you
Put on some clothes, shake up your beds
You’re driving your mamas and papas insane?
Let me say it again
Wake up you sleepy heads
They’re the start of the coming race
Let me say it again
All the nightmares came today
Homo sapiens have outgrown their use
You gotta make way for the homo superior
You’re driving your mamas and papas insane?
Their faces in golden rays
You’re driving your mamas and papas insane?
A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me
Oh, you pretty things, don’t you know
By the puzzled man who questioned
You’re driving your mamas and papas insane?
And it looks as though they’re here to stay
Oh, you pretty things, don’t you know
And it looks as though they’re here to stay
All the strangers came today
The earth is a beast, we’ve finished our news
I need some breakfast and coffee
You gotta make way for the homo superior
Oh, you pretty things, don’t you know
Put another log on the fire for me
Look at your children
Oh, you pretty things, don’t you know
Oh, you pretty things, don’t you know
There’s no room for me, no fun for you
Oh, you pretty things, don’t you know
All the strangers came today
Let me say it again
Where the books were found by the golden ones
What we were here for
I think about a world to come
