Appropriate today, as it was 30 years ago
Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight
To prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven

Don't cry
Don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland

Sally ,take my hand
Travel south crossland
Put out the fire
Don't look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get together
Before we get much older

Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
Oh, oh
Teenage wasteland
They're all wasted

2. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
That song stopped me dead in my tracks when the needle first hit the grooves. it does to this day.

Townsend said (can someone check me on this?) that the backing track is not a keyboard but a found computer tape that he played backward on a 1/2" 4 track tape recorder... and he called it a gift from Meher Baba...

I'm going to work now but if someone can find out if this is true, I'd appreciate it! (NOTE: if it turns out NOT to be true- don't tell me- I like the image too much!)
