[Verse 1]
|
Carry me home away from all these things
|
That keep deceiving me
|
I'm all alone nowhere no one
|
To show me where to go
|
Take my money wear my shirt
|
Using me to do your dirt
|
Judging me when all the time
|
You're the one that did the crime
|
Someone tell me what's the truth
|
Save the children, save the youth
|
What about our hopes and dreams
|
You're not what you really seem oh
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Nation of the plastic people
|
Here's the church and here's its people
|
Preaching good and doing evil
|
Trying to treat you less than equal
|
Saying this and meaning that
|
Twist a knife into your back
|
Don't be cast into the sequel
|
Living in a nation of plastic people (plastic people)
|
|
[Verse 2]
|
You're just like a rose I wanna grow
|
So I can serve my purpose here
|
I wanna fly before I die
|
Be like a bird and touch the sky
|
Take my home, and take my name
|
Generation cellophane
|
There's no difference all the same
|
I don't know when I'm ashamed
|
Can you walk inside my shoes?
|
Don't be mad if I refuse
|
Artificial attributes,
|
Different leaders same old news
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
[Verse 3]
|
What do you know,
|
It's a situation begging for salvation
|
Looking to the sky to answer to all my frustration
|
There's a choice I'm making
|
And there's a chance I'll take it
|
It's the only life I got to live so I can't fake it
|
Yeeaahhh
|
Ohhhh

Desolation.
|
Living in a plastic nation.

Living in a plastic nation.
