Tracks



01. Getting The Most Out Of Your Extinction

The ever growing mass of metal,plastic,
Glass,Concrete,stone,bricks,flesh,blood
And Bone,growing as developers intone

The litany of jobs & progress,to the
Environments,distress,cut down all the
Tall Trees,build another factory

Tear it up & pave it all,for our newest
Shopping mall
Cosmetic front to waste our cash,
A dumping ground for human trash

Everybody is working so hard towards
Their own personal financial solution

Consuming without mercy,without second
Thought,pr the possibility of retribution

The more the population expands the
Greater the Dimorphism within the species

The fortunate few are standing on your
Heads while you drown in a pool of our
Collective feces

They say the cream rises to the top
Bit it's looking pretty sour down here
I can see the dark clouds above me
Pollution consuming the air

Speeding down life's highway of reward
Destroy it all for my money powers
You live as a crash & burn
You'll die as a coward

Heedless of mishap or consequences
We continue to loot & plunder
Despoiling the earth without a plan
How long before we go under

The ironchrist eats up the wilderness
If we can't burn it,We'll can it
And sell it to the public as lite beer
I want off this mucking planet

The say cream rises to the top
But I know it's shit that floats
There's something really wrong

Rock to the doomsday beat

02. Neurotica

Neurotica a texture,a taste,a touch,a scent Exotica
A nice warm place for me to put my face
You like that ? I thought as much
Move your leg so I can,wait what's Wrong ?
You don't wanna go so far so soon,
Wait what's Wrong ?
You don't wanna go do far so soon,come on
Give me half a chance you'll sing a different Tune
Just lie back & close your eyes...aw don't
Get up & be like that

That something left unsaid right from the start
No patience in my head the madness in Your heart

Tantalize,pose & flirt in all the bars with
All the guys
End up in the backseat,one between your Thighs
You like that ? You know you do !
And hey its only Tuesday after school.In
Fact,if you plan your week out right you
Might Contract,any number of diseases that
Will attack,and suppress,the neurotica
That's controlling you

Cast adrift in a sea of moral impoverishment
Selfish expressions of lust procreate Discontent
In the crush of the gender blender
Arms & legs intertwined
Digging into one another with talons,hooks,
Nails,& spines.

Neurotica,my heart,my love,my life
my Breath Intoxica
I couldn't live without you for a day
What am I saying ? Not even a moment
Every second we're apart is agony,intense
No lies,secrets,hidden truths,or cheap pretense
No Barriers between us no lines of defense
Why do we look so scared ?

03. World War Three (Crack Party Weekend)

We've got to speak up now
We've got to stand up straight
To use what brains we have
We must act fast it's not too late
We must be clear of purpose resolute & Strong
The simple fact my friends this world's too
Small not to get along

We fight in deepest jungles
We kill on city streets
Over sea,land,on air
There is no where you may retreat
Everyone of us with their backs against the Wall
For assured survival my friends,these very
walls themselves must fall

WW III Crack Party Weekend
WW III Crack Party Weekend

Nicaragua...Palestine...Belfast...DC

Bullets bombs or drugs
Or a pipe to the head
Political power or crack
Bang you're dead

Brother slaughters brother
They butcher each other
Daughters & sons incetuously mix
Man is the plaything of mighty whoredoms
An Axetime,a swordtime,shields will be split
A wind age,a wolf age,before the world ends

Bullets Bombs or drugs
Or a pipe to the head
Political power or crack
Bang you're dead

Horrific vision & every day clearer
Impending technolocaust dawning
nearer And nearer

Geneva...Afghanistan

From household construction
To industrial Production
Lubricating & fueling our
Progressive Destruction

04. Mechanized Emotions

[Instrumental]

05. Equilibrium

Slander...falling on deaf ears
A blockade of ignorance
A Dissarray of fears
Right! Wrong! Thats what I say
And you'll never get me to believe that way
Bigotry ? Banality ? I can't think that small
But I don't think all men
Were created equal
Some have brains,some have conditioning
Wake up out there,I can't hear you listening

There will be an equilibrium

Do you presume to judge a man by the amount
Of melatonin in his skin ?
Shape of face color of hair or eyelid design
You condemn from without while
You rot From within
Where did you learn this ? In what school
Were you taught ?
Whoever's responsible should beeeeeee
Lined up & Shot
Against who do you fight ?
What do you have to win ?
With your eyes on the prize
Your heart's rooted in sin

Hatred & disgust,a comedy of mistrust,
We're drowning in blood
Socially permeable membrane cannot hope to
Contain the inevitable flood
Two sides to each coin,not adjunct but
Adjoin,have no sympathy for those who
Among you confuse & misconstrue your
Liberty continuum

There is not a single trait that is common to
Any one race
We're all human underneath it all,a simple
Fact some of you have to face
Form coalitions,protect your precious rights
But deep down inside you just wanna fight
Beat up on blacks beat up on jews
Beat up on Whitey
Who's beating up on you ?

Yo boy! Whats on your agenda ? Looks like it's
Time for your public enema
Red neck,no brains,no guts,gonna run you
Over with your pickup truck
Rasta man babbling on & on,sweating in
The hot sun with your dreadlocks Shorn
Skinhead,the late arriver don't stick
Yourself in the head with your own Screwdriver

There will be an equilibrium

I envision a time when all men must come to
Live as brothers
Equilibrium balancing out the hate,that
Stifles us & smothers
Our motivations, & our unwillingness to Strive
Towards global harmony
So that the race survives

06. Cyborg

Who needs legs at all
Why walk when you can roll
Welcome to our mainframe afterlife
Wher we have stored your siul
Fear not for your bodies sanctity
There's little we can't correct
From genetic disorder to mutilation
Your life we've sworn to protect

If they can rebuild me
They can rebuild you too
We can rebuild you!

Cyborg...man of steel

Arms,lungs,eyes,tongues,
Replaced & regrown,rivited,& sewn,
Artificial herats,liposuction,cerebral
Shunts,breast reconstruction
Correct man's degenerate lineage
Make him over in his own image

If they can rebuild me
They can rebuild you too
We can rebuild you!

Cyborg...man of steel

07. Contusions

[Instrumental]

08. White Plague

Created deep from within the densest forest
The most exotic product of mankind
A virus so powerful & deceiving
Thriving on the state of madness it contrives

From coca,to cocaine,to money,to murder
Man's greed is is ailment,temptations Assured

Traveling through the nation's arteries
A negative recourse of this disease
From gross addiction,to H.I.V.
Inflict the violence within our country
With the millions spend out weakness
Will finance the deaths of thousands more
False political quest the white plague
Change our shared addiction to civil war

Tempted with the thoughts of ecstasy
Dependant to the lies you self inflict
Uncertain that the chaos is exciting to you
A victim of the crimes that you commit

Addiction of confusion numbing normalcy
A maladjusted body's internal chemistry
Obsessive need preoccupies the emptiness
Escape that's brought you cardiac arrest

Snow blind visions have defallen
In a reign upon our nation
A habit that is drawing us to
Our own annihilation
The affliction you desired
Shall be present in your future
Soliphsistically imbalanced
Post financially secure

09. Inheritance

Genesis,the beginning of the end
World resources we've begun to expend
Mass producing a cybernetic biology
Inadvertantly creating,a modern theology
Encasing man in his own structured system
Locked down to a pattern by his nearsighted
Vision
No one out there can be hurt by what you
Seem to believe,you can't be hurt by
what you Can't see

Western civilization spiraling down in DeclineWithout forefather's technology
Systematically enshrined

Ill side effects of our innovations have
Slowly led to society mutation
Forsaken prisoners of a past imperfection
Syntax error,insert correction

Would someone please help us find a Solution
To the last two million years of hominid Evolution

Condemned at birth to a world of misery
Doomed by mistakes repeated
Throughout our history
Secure feelings are nothing more than lies
We have inherited the means for genocide

You didn't order this shade of reality
Maybe it's nothing but a minor legality

Why is the question & what is the answer
When we are the cause of our mother's cancer
We have been left a world derelict
A legacy of problems too late to correct

10. Intermission

Condemned at birth to a world of misery
Doomed by mistakes repeated
Throughout our history
Secure feelings are nothing more than lies
We have inherited the means for genocide

You didn't order this shade of reality
Maybe it's nothing but a minor legality

Why is the question & what is the answer
When we are the cause of our mother's cancer
We have been left a world derelict
A legacy of problems too late to correct
