Baba O'Riley effect

I grew up in a dictatorship but I was accompanied by many people who fought to put end it. Not only in politics... In the seventies in Spain cultural life was very, very poor and open mind people found abroad the inspiration to survive, the idols to imitate and the hymns to be sung.
One important song at this moment of my life was "Baba O'Riley" by The Who. Now, I have recovered it in credit lines of "CSI", the TV series. The world has changed quickly!

Baba O'Riley

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
No, no, no

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!
