The Divine Comedy - Generation Sex lyrics

Well, there's nothing wrong with a
Woman having two men
Every woman should have at least
Two men, if you don't
There's something wrong
I mean, guys do it all the time
Guys have a woman on this side of town
The other side of town
They have a woman in another city
Why shouldn't we? I mean, it's the 90s!

Generation sex respects
The rights of girls
Who want to take their clothes off
As long as we can all watch that's okay
And generation sex elects
The type of guys
You wouldn't leave your kids with
And shouts "off with their heads"
If they get laid

Lovers watch their backs as hacks
In macs take snaps
Through telephoto lenses
Chase Mercedes-Benzes through the night
A mourning nation weeps and wails
But keeps the sales
Of evil tabloids healthy
The poor protect the wealthy in this world

Generation sex injects
The sperm of worms
Into the eggs of field mice
So you can look real nice for the boys
And generation sex is me
And you and we
Should really all know better
It really doesn't matter what you say

It doesn't matter what colour you are
Long as you're happy
You know, loving has no colour, you know
I'd rather be with someone that's white
And keeps making me happy
Than with somebody my same colour and be
Miserable the rest of my life
