"Blame Your Parents" : 54*40, from "Smilin' Buddha Cabaret"

The tune is pretty much like this :

----------------------------------------------------|
----------------------------------------------------|
---5---5---4-------AND (chug chug chuggin')-:-------|
---------------5------------------2-----------------|
-5---3---3----------------5---5---0-----------------|
-------------5------------3---2---------------------|

Main riff "Memory..." chorus

deschooling grind breeds unrest
adult children get depressed
transparent self will always fail
archaic man leaves a trail
subhuman rubbed in parading eyes
libido pastures and the drug-nose highs
horns and hooves quest for death
existential vacuum becomes a rest

memory's lost to pride

puppets all take up slack
single minds won't give it back
unconscious god broadcast fraud
selfish goals defer the cost
tribal order suicide
super-ego suckling genocide
blame your parents' broken image
blame the counter-culture
and the global village

memory's lost to pride

Solo

Freud was wrong he told a lie
it was child abuse and Oedipus should die
he milked the brain's trance-like state
blame your parents

memory's lost to pride

P.S. I could tab "Ocean Pearl" if anyone's interested.
