Lyrics

Are You Receiving

Our destination is nowhere

Our feelings are destroyed

We've got nothing at all

This is life in the fall

We keep searching for the positive

We're using everything

We got nothing at all

This is life in the fall

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

When you're watching TV creating lunacy

We'll treat your heads with our ideas of space

We're like a beam to infinity

Relating you to me

Don't you see what we mean

I'm sure you'll understand...yeah

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

There's some survival here

It's so boring out there

To find a group control

'Cause they're frightened of your soul

No more motivation, total domination

But forget, but forget to say it's getting subtle

This is an order from the United Police Force of Great Britain

The minds of the young people today are being infiltrated by the so-called "beat generation"

These people's identification are on file

We have orders from the new government to detain these people immediately

These people must be detained immediately

These people must be detained immediately

Ha Ha Ha

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...

Are you receiving...
