Fight
Stand up and fight Fight for your right Kill In for the kill Do what you will Attack Stabbed in the back The whip starts to crack Revenge Oh, sweet revenge Time to avenge Fuel for the fire Fuel for the fire Boiling blood and fire Gasoline to a flame I'm just a live wire Don't you know it's not a game? It's not a game Go Go for the throat Stand back and gloat Hate Deep rooted hate When the anger is great Fuel for the fire Feed the flame 02. Keep It Up
Stand at attention, be a masculine man
Keep on going for as long as you can All it takes is just one little pill Last all night and get your fill Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up Unending pleasure, a woman's delight Unbending treasure that lasts all night All it takes is just one little pill Every night you can get a thrill Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up Enhancing performance in a drug induced way The modern world where the adults play All it takes is just one little pill If you haven't got it, you soon will Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up Keep it up, keep it up 03. Song Of Pain
Once bit, twice shy
Just the average kind of guy Loved and lost felt the pain The need to start all over again Heart broken, on the mend The loss of that special friend The look and feel of despair War and love where it's all fair You just want a place to hide, (place to hide) Don't show the hurt you feel inside Keep your feelings bottled up, (bottled up) An abandoned ship you won't give up Sing me a love song Song of pain Sing me a love song, (sing a song of pain) They're one in the same, yeah Started young and innocent All the good times that were spent Soft caress and sweet perfume A hopeless love on its way to doom In time you grow apart Feel the anguish of a broken heart Caught in a love that didn't last Cleanse yourself of the past You just have to let it go, (let it go) Try not to let your feelings show You don't know where you went wrong, (where you went wrong) Experience will make you strong A love song Song of pain Sing me a love song A song of pain, (sing a song of love) Sing me a love song, (sing a song of pain) Song of pain Time passes, your heart grows cold To the echo of the old In with the new, on to the next Love can be so complex Once bit, twice shy Just the average kind of guy Loved and lost, felt the pain The need to start all over again You just have to let it go, (let it go) Find someone new and let love grow Seize the moment, don't take too long, (don't take too long) Experience will make you strong Sing me a love song A song of pain Sing me a love song Extinguish the flame, (sing a song of love) Sing me a love song, (sing a song of pain) A song of pain, (sing a song of love) Sing me a love song, (sing a song of pain) Relinquish the blame 04. You Get What You Pay For
Something for nothing, a bargain, a steal
Used cars on credit card, lost another wheel I'd like to get it for free It's what the price should be I just wanna pay less I just have to confess Quality and value, always wanting more Tip my hat to the taxman, the revenue does poor You get what you pay for Cheap and stingy may have its own way There's a lesson to be learned from being this way You get nothing for free You gotta let it be You know you can't ignore When you know the score You get what you pay for You get what you pay for Get what you pay for Nothing for nothing is the golden rule Suckers born everyday, don't be left a fool You get nothing for free You get to pay the fee You know you can't ignore When you know the score You get what you pay for 05. The Chainsaw
Murdering wilderness teaming with life
Cold blooded killers armed with mechanized knife Razor sharp blades slicing limb from limb When the motor is revving, let the cutting begin Tooth picks from logs or pulp and paper Raping a harvest, stealing from nature Ravaging hillsides until nothing remains Depleting oxygen, an industries pains The chainsaw At the core an industry That makes its money from society Give the people what they need Take a forest, plant a seed Slice and dice, chemically treat Over and over it will repeat Oak, maple, birch, and pine The receding of the forest line The chain of blades do spin round Taking trees to the ground Deadly cost to environment Watch just where your money's spent Supply demand is on the rise Self destruction in disguise Blades of steel that never stop The cutting of another crop The chainsaw 06. Can't Catch Me
When you are a cheat, you will be beat, self defeat
If you're unaware, you best take care, life's not fair Take control of your very soul I hope you know what I mean Don't get caught in the act behind your lovers back then deny the fact When your hands in the jar, wish upon a star, you won't get far Every soul has self control You should know what I mean Can't catch me, can't catch me, can't catch me foolin' around Can't catch me, can't catch me, can't catch me when my pants are down When you think you're cool And you've been found a fool Don't blame me Take my advice, don't think twice, you will suffice Consequence, has no defense, you'll have to pay the price Taking heed of your manly need You know just what I mean Can't catch me, can't catch me, can't catch me foolin' around Can't catch me, can't catch me, can't catch me when my pants are down 07. Go Away
Everyone's a critic, opinions are for free
The only one that matters is the one that belongs to me I used to be gullible, innocent, naive All the things I've seen and heard I can't believe Lies, I hear everyday Lies, I don't know what to say Go away Narrow minded, jaded, get too loud a voice Freedom of the press and the freedom of choice I used to be a believer in what I'd seen and read I wish I knew the real truth, not the bullshit been fed Lies, I hear everyday Lies, I don't know what to say Go away The innocent stay uninformed, go on what they've heard Take belief in anything, no matter how absurd Lambs to the slaughter, victims of crime Lost in a paper jungle 'til the end of time Lies, I hear everyday Lies, I don't know what to say Go away 08. Bottom Feeder
Well alright!
Living off the money of misery It's a dog eat dog mentality The corporate world is a pocket bleeder Better watch out for the bottom feeder Bottom feeder, bottom feeder Bottom feeder, bottom feeder Bottom feeder Yeah! Rob you blind just to make a buck Kick you hard when you're down on your luck The whole damn world is a money eater Watch out for the bottom feeder Bottom feeder, bottom feeder Bottom feeder, bottom feeder Bottom feeder Hold on to your cash A stock market crash You better hide, hide your stash Yeah! Squeezing blood from the proverbial stone Paying it off when your life's on loan A card game with a cheater Better watch out for the bottom feeder Bottom feeder, bottom feeder Bottom feeder, bottom feeder Bottom feeder 09. Cruel World
I was searching for tomorrow
Waiting for the sun to shine In a cloak of deepest sorrow Now forever 'til the end of time A glimmer of hope, a light to follow I'm just waiting for my time To break through, make it to Just where I want to be Winding roads and false pretences On deafened ears I make my plea Signed in blood, I've lost my senses Won't someone rescue me Rescue me from a cruel world Rescue me, rescue me Rescue me from a cruel world Confuse you, defuse you Don't take the pride from me Abuse you, refuse you Won't someone rescue me Rescue me from a cruel world Rescue me, rescue me Rescue me from a cruel world I'm still searching for tomorrow Waiting for the sun to rise Living off the time I borrowed Even after the countless tries Fulfilled hopes, a light to follow Unrelented 'til the day I die Stop the pain, live again Spare me from this agony Rescue me Rescue me from a cruel world Rescue me, rescue me Rescue me from a cruel world 10. Fast Driver
Just one shot of nitrous, I'll leave you in the dust
Peddles to the metal, feel the engine thrust The power of a monster raging under the hood The sheer lust of power makes me feel so good Fast driver, pass you on the curve Fast driver, the power and the nerve Low riding tires grip the road like glue Hair pin corners, a breeze to get through Five speed tranny and overhead cam When the cops see me comin' they learn just who I am Fast driver, pass you on the curve Fast driver, the power and the nerve Fast driver, foot made of lead Fast driver, wearing down the tread Car race, on your mark get set go Keeping the pace fast not slow Car race, on your mark get set go No time to waste, let's go, go, go Go, go, go, go Burning up the pavement, leave a trail of black The smell of burnt rubber, I won't be comin' back Fast as a bullet fired from a gun Getting home alive is a race I've won Fast driver, pass you on the curve Fast driver, the power and the nerve Fast driver, foot made of lead Fast driver, wearing down the tread Fast driver, pass you on the curve Fast driver, the power and the nerve |
