Out of my garden, passed the battle cruiser
We jumped over cemetery gates
There on the wasteland, we saw the horizon
I noticed your pupils dilate
They're at it again, let's roll just like we used to
In fields when we were young our hearts got lost in the circles
We had it all, a rise and fall
Came from the booze and the fags generation
And prayed for the mayhem to start
You said you were foolish but I saw the genius
In pulling the stitches apart
They're at it again, let's roll just like we used to
In fields when we were young our hearts got lost in the circles
We had it all, a rise and fall
So raise your glass to the ones who have passed
And the ones that got away, oh
They're at it again, let's roll just like we used to
In fields when we were young our hearts got lost in the circles
We had it all, a rise and fall
I saw her face, way out in space
We jumped over cemetery gates
There on the wasteland, we saw the horizon
I noticed your pupils dilate
They're at it again, let's roll just like we used to
In fields when we were young our hearts got lost in the circles
We had it all, a rise and fall
Came from the booze and the fags generation
And prayed for the mayhem to start
You said you were foolish but I saw the genius
In pulling the stitches apart
They're at it again, let's roll just like we used to
In fields when we were young our hearts got lost in the circles
We had it all, a rise and fall
So raise your glass to the ones who have passed
And the ones that got away, oh
They're at it again, let's roll just like we used to
In fields when we were young our hearts got lost in the circles
We had it all, a rise and fall
I saw her face, way out in space

A comment on British culture, we really are a fags and booze generation here, but I don't think Kasabian are commenting about it in a negative way... more in a reminiscent way.
It seems Tom or Serge feel like they could do with a night similar to their earlier days maybe... "lets roll just like we used to "
I realllly like this album.
Ecstasy culture in general is kind of at odds with alcohol culture, the two experiences are very different and I think that is the reference about the booze generation. I think pulling stitches apart relates to the issues that may come up and be resolved while "rolling" (for example, the way ecstasy use may benefit those who suffer from PTSD).
Overall - nostalgic, reflective on youth in a positive manner.
Love this intro though, booze and fags generation, maybe hankering for a more innocent time before it all got quite idealistic and irresponsible.
It's about clarity, purity when you were young perhaps, dunno.
