    Sometimes you get a bad connection
That all depends upon your predilection
When you're pointed in the wrong direction
You can wear me for your protection

Let's establish a new tradition
We'll abolish old superstition 
You're the Jesus of my religion
You're even better than television!

C
Take it as read 
               A
I won't harm a single hair upon your head 
C
Safe in your bed, 
               D
That's where I said it, meant it. 
G
Hit it!
                   A
You won't regret it

        Hallucination     Hallucination     Hallucination

Learned to live in my imagination
The School of Hard Knocks was my education
I got a Magnum Cum Louder graduation
With a major in Hallucination

[guitar solo in A]

Take it as read
I won't harm a single hair on your sweet head
Safe in your bed,
That's where I said it, meant it
You won't regret it

Your the Jesus of my religion
But Jesus turn down that television

Hallucination
Hallucination
Hallucination across the nation
Across the nation
Lost generation
Lost generation
Hallucination
