We're spinning round on this ball of hate
There's no parole, there's no great escape We're sentenced here until the end of days And then my brother there's a price to pay We're only human, we were born to die Without the benefit of reason why We live for pleasure - to be satisfied And now it's over there's no place to hide Why don't you, come down too It's such a brutal planet It's such an ugly world Why won't you, come down too "This world is such perfection" (What a sight) "It's just like paradise" (For my eyes) "A truly grand creation" (What a sight) "From up here it looks so nice" (For my eyes) It's such a brutal planet It's such a living hell It was a holy garden That's right where Adam fell It's where the bite was taken It's where we chose to sin It's where we first were naked This is where our death begins We took advice from that deceiving snake He said don't worry it's a piece of cake And sent us swimming in a burning lake Now we're abandoned here for heaven's sake Why don't you, come down too It's such a brutal planet It's such an ugly world Why won't you, come down too "This world is such perfection" (What a sight) "It's just like paradise" (For my eyes) "A truly grand creation" (What a sight) "From up here it looks so nice" (For my eyes) Here's where we keep the armies Here's where we write those names Here's where the money god is Here's our famous hall of shame Here's where we starve the hungry Here's where we cheat the poor Here's where we beat the children Here is where we pay the whore Why don't you, come down too It's such a brutal planet It's such an ugly world Why won't you, come down too "This world is such perfection" (What a sight) "It's just like paradise" (For my eyes) "A truly grand creation" (What a sight) "From up here it looks so nice" (For my eyes) Right here we stoned the prophets Built idols out of mud Right here we fed the lions Christian flesh and Christian blood Down here is where we hung ya Upon an ugly cross Over there we filled the ovens Right here the holocaust 02. Wicked Young Man
Cold blue swastika tattooed on my skin
The ice in my veins the staples in my chin I've got it carved in my forehead "Slave To My Sin" Too violent for the brotherhood to ever take me in Gonna write down my law in blood upon the street To the cadence of a goose-step heavy metal beat Wanna purify my race gonna turn up the heat Just wanna make 'em die and make the job complete I am a vicious young man oh I am a wicked young man It's not the games that I play the movies I see the music I dig I'm just a wicked young man I like to run my body on heavy heavy fuel I can punch through a wall I can kick like a mule I got a pocketful of bullets and a blueprint of the school I'm the devil's little soldier I'm the devil's little tool I am a vicious young man oh I am a wicked young man It's not the games that I play the movies I see the music I dig I'm just a wicked young man I got every kind of chemical pumpin' through my head I read Mein Kampf daily just to keep my hatred fed I never ever sleep I just lay in my bed Dreamin' of the day when everyone is dead I am a vicious young man oh I am a wicked young man It's not the games that I play the movies I see the music I dig I'm just a wicked young man I am a vicious young man oh I am a vicious young man I am a vicious young man oh I am a wicked young man 03. Sanctuary
Your world full of creeps
Zombies walk the street 9 to 5 barely alive Have a beer go to sleep And start all over again Same gray suit Same round shoes Same headache Same pills He goes home thinks about suicide But hes got his diploma Got to give him that I got a radical place Got my own private space It's my sanctuary It's the castle of doom I'm the king of my room Just a Quasimodo Let the world blow away This is where I will stay In my sanctuary Got my mess on the floor Got my lock on my door Go Away Sanctuary Go Away Sanctuary Someday I gotta get out of here Gotta put on a shirt put on a tie Get a job buy a car get some insurance Cause I'll probably have a heart attack Before I'm 40 I guess I'll find the perfect wife And I'll have 2. 3 perfect kids And if I work real hard And die real fast They'll all turn out just like me 04. Blow Me A Kiss
Take one in the leg [Think about your baby]
Take one in the side [Think about your girl] Take one in the head [Think about your mother] Take one in the heart [It's the end of the world] So blow me a kiss cause I'm black Blow me a kiss cause I'm gay Blow me a kiss cause I'm shakin' Say goodnight then blow me away Blow me away Blow me away Tell me what you're thinkin' tell me why Blow me a kiss then blow me away Take one in the face [Think about your life] Take one in the eye [Think about your soul] Take one in the mouth [Think about your savior] Take one in the thigh [Are you ready to go] So blow me a kiss cause I'm lonely Blow me a kiss cause I'm afraid Blow me a kiss cause you don't know me Say goodnight then blow me away Blow me away Blow me away Tell me what you're thinkin' tell me why I'm in my room I'm Dr. Doom Cause I'm not me I'm someone else Why should you die don't ask me why You know it you know it you know it Blow me away I turn the page I am the rage I'm coming from a darker place A much darker place So blow me away Blow me away Yeah blow me away Tell me what you're thinkin' tell me why Blow me a kiss then blow me away Yeah blow me away C'mon and blow me away Tell me what you're thinkin' tell me why Blow me a kiss then blow me away 05. Eat Some More
Sixty million tons of meat
Spoiling in the stinking heat Train full loads of moldy bread Millions will still go unfed Acres full of dying wheat Burning brightly at our feet A billion tons of roasted fish Some with nothing on their dish We can't see we're going blind We're just dying on the vine We're all sinking from the weight Open wide and salivate Do you like the taste? Stuff it in your face Its not nice to waste We're not happy 'till we're choking So we eat some more Throw up on the floor Go back to the store We're so hungry So pathetic Lots of melting cheddar cheese Spreading instant meat disease Rotting veggies on the ground Where hungry little kids are found Worms in fruit an ugly sight They're begging for a single bite Our garbage dumps are mountains high While other people sadly die We can't see we're going blind We're just dying on the vine We're all sinking from the weight Open wide and salivate Do you like the taste? Stuff it in your face Its not nice to waste We're not happy 'till we're choking So we eat some more Throw up on the floor Go back to the store We're so hungry So pathetic We can't see we're going blind We're just dying on the vine We're all sinking from the weight Open wide and salivate Do you like the taste? Stuff it in your face Its not nice to waste We're not happy 'till we're choking So we eat some more Throw up on the floor Go back to the store We're so hungry So pathetic 06. Pick up The Bones
Collecting pieces of my family
In an old pillow case This one has a skull But it don't have a face These look like the arms of father so strong And the ring on this finger Means my Grandma is gone Here's some legs in a cloud Where my sister once played Here's some mud made of blood And these teeth are decayed The ear of my brother The hand of a friend And I just can't Put them back together again Pick up the bones And set them on fire Follow the smoke going higher and higher Pick up the bones And wish them goodnight Pray them a prayer and turn out the light There are stains on the floor Where kitchen once stood There are ribs on the fire place Mixed with the wood There are forces in the air Ghosts in the wind Some bullets in the back And some scars on the skin There were demons with guns Who marched through this place Killing everything that breathed They're an inhuman race There are holes in the walls Bloody hair on the bricks And the smell of this hell Is making me sick Pick up the bones And set them on fire Follow the smoke going higher and higher Pick up the bones And wish them goodnight Pray them a prayer and turn out the light Pick up the bones And set them on fire Follow the scope going higher and higher Pick up the bones And wish them goodnight Pray them a prayer and turn out the light Now maybe someday The suns gonna shine Flowers will bloom And all will be fine But nothing will grow On this burnt cursive ground Cause the breathe of the death Is the only sound 07. Pessi-Mystic
Don't need a crystal ball
For me to see clearly No astrology or Tarot cards Watch and see an end And holding my breath To face the day Scares me to death I'm pessimystic I'm so fatalistic I'm pessimystic I don't believe a thing I'm pessimystic I'm so nihilistic I'm pessimystic For what tomorrow brings I can't hear a word you say So shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up I like being sick this way So shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up Everybody's mind is badly infected Everybody feeds the parasite Everything is dark so why not accept it? Everything is far more black than white I'm pessimystic I'm so fatalistic I'm pessimystic I don't believe a thing I'm pessimystic I'm so pissed-off-istic I'm pessimystic Of what tomorrow brings I can't hear a word you say So shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up I like feeling sick this way So shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up I'm pessimystic I'm so fatalistic I'm pessimystic I don't believe a thing I'm pessimystic I'm so nihlistic I'm pessimystic Of what tomorrow brings 08. Gimme

It's The Little Things
You can burn my house
You can cut my hair You can make me wrestle naked With a grizzly bear You can poison my cat Baby I don't care But if you talk in the movies I'll kill you right there It's the little things It's just the little things Aw it's the little things It's just the little things Yeah it's the little things That drive me wild I'm like a mad dog I'm on a short leash I'm on a tight rope Hanging by a thread I'm on some thin ice You push me too far Welcome to my nightmare No more Mr. Nice Guy You can steal my car And drive it into the lake You can stick me in the oven And put it on bake You could throw a big brick Through my window pane But if I ever hear you ask me How I got my name It's the little things It's just the little things Aw it's the little things It's just the little things Yeah it's the little things That drive me wild I'm like a mad dog I'm on a short leash I'm on a tight rope Hanging by a thread I'm on some thin ice You push me too far Welcome to my nightmare No more Mr. Nice Guy I've done it all I mean I been everywhere I've been beaten I been stabbed I been hung I been buried alive And I can deal with that But its the little things It's the little things It's just the little things Yeah it's the little things Just the little things Aw just the little things That drive me wild I'm like a mad dog I'm on a short leash I'm on a tight rope Hanging by a thread I'm on some thin ice You push me too far I'm just a psycho Pathic psycho pathic I'm like a mad dog I'm on a short leash I'm on a tight rope Hanging by a thread I'm on some thin ice You push me too far Welcome to my nightmare No more Mr. Nice Guy It's the little things Aw it's the little things It's just the little things 10. Take it Like A Woman
I bet ya never thought
That it would never turn out like this Mama's little girl Daddy's little princess But somewhere in your fairy tale Everything went wrong Now the sun don't shine The words don't rhyme You're out of time You've been beaten down Kicked around on the ground But you took it like a woman Victimized, terrorized, paralyzed But you took it like a woman Pushed too far pulled too hard Deeply scared I know you must have felt the pain But you took it like a woman Ya thought you had your Mr. Right But he was really Mr. Hyde Ya gave him your most precious gift You were his bleeding bride He tied you up pulled your hair He slapped your innocent face Yeah, you were black and blue He laughed at you So what'd you do? Aw you've been beaten down Kicked around on the ground But you took it like a woman Victimized, terrorized, paralyzed But you took it like a woman Pushed too far pulled too hard Deeply scared I know you must have felt the pain But you took it like a woman And so its over Your fantasy life is finally at an end And the world above is still a brutal place And the story will start again You been beaten down Kicked around on the ground But you took it like a woman Victimized, terrorized, paralyzed But you took it like a woman Pushed too far pulled too hard Deeply scared I know you must have felt the pain Felt the pain I know you must have felt the pain But you took it like a woman You took it like a woman I know you must have felt the pain 11. Cold Machines
I see you working at your station
Radiation burns my eyes Love's forbidden so is passion This whole place is sterilized I just want to see tomorrow Day by day to just survive But this place is built to kill me No one here gets out alive I don't wanna be I don't wanna be Just a memory I don't wanna be I don't wanna be Gone You don't know my name You don't know my number You don't know my face at all We walk right past each other Every single day Like cold machines We're marching on and on and on and on and on Got your thumb print always with me Got your bar code memorized They came here to electroshock me But can they erase you from my mind? I don't wanna be I don't wanna be Just a memory I don't wanna be I don't wanna be Gone You don't know my name You don't know my number You don't know my face at all We walk right past each other Every single day Like cold machines We're marching on and on and on and on and on I don't wanna be I don't wanna be Just a memory I don't wanna be I don't wanna be Gone You don't know my name You don't know my number You don't know my face at all We walk right past each other Every single day Like cold machines We're marching on and on and on and on and on |
