Lyrics[]
Falling into space At the end of time Black as the black in your eye Staring through a hole in the ozone There's nobody home To play back your answerphone Climax out of blue Is it just another high? No there must be something new Now that I'm so alien Entering the atmosphere Don't know what is waiting here (oh no) If there's nothing left to fear When they come together in The Big Bang Generation Teardrop in the sky Bursting my eye Sound of morning sighs This life is stranger than fiction Surreal addiction It's all I recognize Feeding off the habit Losing control Where is it leading to? Now that I'm the alien Entering the atmosphere Don't know what is waiting here If there's nothing left to fear When we come together in The Big Bang Generation (Feel like I'm losing control) Big Bang Generation (Now that I'm here alone) Big Bang Generation (Feel like I'm losing control) Big Bang Generation (Feel like I'm losing it) We're gonna come together here Where you coming from? When we gonna burn out? Don't know Having so much fun Greetings from the Big Bang Generation Big Bang Generation Meet you in the Big Bang Generation Together in the Big Bang Generation Together we're the Big Bang Generation
