Sick of people - no ones real
Sick of chicks - they're all bitches Sick of you - you're too hip Sick of life - it sucks Suicide's an alternative Sick of trying - what's the point Sick of talking - no one listens Sick of listening - it's all lies Sick of thinking - just end up confused Sick of moving - never get no where Sick of myself - don't wanna live Sick and tired - and no one cares Sick of life - it sucks Sick of politics - for the rich Sick of power - only oppresses Sick of government - full of tyrants Sick of school - total brainwash Sick of music - top 40 sucks Sick of myself - don't wanna live Sick and tired - and no one cares Sick of life - it sucks Suicide's an alternative Sick of life - it sucks Sick and tired - and no one cares Sick of myself - don't wanna live Sick of living - I'm gonna die 02. Two Sided Politics
I'm not anti-society, society's anti-me
I'm not anti-religion, religion is anti-me I'm not anti-tradition, tradition is anti-me I'm not anti-anything, I just wanna be free Fascist state, no freedom Unless you control yourself Use self expression, lose your freedom You're undesirable, you go straight to jail Kill someone, in a war Get a medal, you're a hero Protect yourself in every day war You're undesirable you go straight to jail I'm not anti-Reagan, Reagan's anti-me I'm not anti-government, government's anti-me I'm not anti-politics, politics is anti-me I'm not anti-anything, I just wanna be free Innocent, never guilty High class lawyer, you are rich If you're poor must be guilty Even if innocent you go straight to jail 03. I Shot The Devil
I shot Reagan I shot Sadat
I'm gonna shoot you dead in heaven you'll rot You're gonna rot in heaven, hear an Angels voice You're too bad for hell although it's your first choice Rot in heaven, you're too bad for hell Rot in heaven, cause you're forgiven in hell I shot Lennon, I shot the Pope I shot the devil now you ain't got no hope You're gonna rot in heaven, hear an Angels voice You're too bad for hell although it's your first choice 04. Subliminal
Flashing pictures on my screen
Shown too quickly to be seen Does not register in my conscious mind Propaganda of another kind They're Fucking with me subliminally They're Fucking with me subliminally Danger - Nightmare Doomsday - Nightmare Murder - Nightmare Nightmare, Nightmare Watching T.V. I start to cry For no reason I don't know why Could it be from messages on my TV Which I'm getting subliminally? Mind control the easiest way Sponsored by the C.I.A. It's a weapon you cannot see It's propaganda subliminally 05. Won't Fall In Love Today
Baby don't you be blue
You know that I'll always be true You know that I'll always love you And we'll always be together too Over a thousand things I can say to you Half of which would be un-true But the one thing for sure I can say Is that I won't fall in love today Baby when you hold me tight You know everything will be alright So let's not take any time to fight Because you know I love you with all my might Baby you make me feel like a man When we're rolling in the sand So come and take me by the hand And do the things you know we can 06. Institutionalized
Sometimes I try to do things and it just doesn't work out the way I wanted to.
I get real frustrated and I try hard to do it and I take my time And it doesn't work out the way I wanted to. It's like I concentrate real hard and it doesn't work out. Everything I do and everything I try never turns out. It's like I need time to figure these things out. But there's always someone there going. Hey Mike: You know we've been noticing you've been having a lot of problems lately. You know, maybe you should get away and maybe you should talk about it, Maybe you'll feel a lot better And I'm all like: Oh nah it's ok you know I'll figure it out, just leave me alone I'll figure it out. You know I'm just working on it by myself. And they go: Well you know if you want to talk about it I'll be here you know and you'll probably feel A lot better if you talk about it. So why don't you talk about it? And I go: No I don't want to I'm okay, I'll figure it out myself. But they just keep bugging me and they just keep bugging me, and it builds up inside. So you're gonna be institutionalized You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes You won't have anyting to say They'll brainwash you until you see their way. I'm not crazy - Institutionalized You're the one that's crazy - Institutionalized You're driving me crazy - Institutionalized They stuck me in an institution, Said it was the only solution, To give me the needed professional help, To protect me from the enemy - Myself I was in my room and I was just like staring at the wall thinking about everything. But then again I was thinking about nothing And then my mom came in and I didn't even know she was there. She called my name and I didn't hear her and then she started screaming: MIKE! MIKE! And I go: What, what's the matter? She goes: What's the matter with you? I go: There's nothing wrong mom. She's all: Don't tell me that, you're on drugs! I go: No mom I'm not on drugs I'm okay, I was just thinking you know, Why don't you get me a Pepsi. She goes: NO you're on drugs! I go: Mom I'm okay, I'm just thinking. She goes: No you're not thinking, you're on drugs! Normal people don't be acting that way! I go: Mom just get me a Pepsi, please All I want is a Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me. Just a Pepsi. They give you a white shirt with long sleeves Tied around you're back, you're treated like thieves Drug you up because they're lazy It's too much work to help a crazy I'm not crazy - Institutionalized You're the one who's crazy - Institutionalized You're driving me crazy - Institutionalized They stuck me in an institution, Said it was the only solution, To give me the needed professional help, To protect me from the enemy - Myself I was sitting in my room when my mom and my dad came in and they pulled up A chair and they sat down. They go: Mike, we need to talk to you. And I go: Okay what's the matter? They go: Me and your mom have been noticing lately that you've been having a lot of problems, And you've been going off for no reason and we're afraid you're going to hurt somebody, And we're afraid you're going to hurt yourself. So we decided that it would be in you're best interest if we put you somewhere Where you could get the help that you need. And I go: Wait, what are you talking about, WE decided!? MY best interests?! How do you know what MY best interest is? How can you say what MY best interest is? What are you trying to say, I'M crazy? When I went to YOUR schools, I went to YOUR churches, I went to YOUR institutional learning facilities?! So how can you say I'M crazy? They say they're gonna fix my brain Alleviate my suffering and my pain But by the time they fix my head Mentally I'll be dead I'm not crazy - Institutionalized You're the one who's crazy - Institutionalized You're driving me crazy - Institutionalized They stuck me in an institution, Said it was the only solution, To give me the needed professional help, To protect me from the enemy - Myself Doesn't matter, I'll probably get hit by a car anyways. 07. Memories Of Tomorrow
B-1 bombers in flight
Trident missiles in the air MX missiles underground Protect us till we're dead Memories of tomorrow - too late for sorrow Push the button Kiss good-bye the nuclear arsenal A-bombs flying off their ramps Nuclear bombs explode Radio active people Search for medicine Pray for shelter Kill for food Mass starvation Contaminated water Destroyed cities Mutilated bodies I'll kill myself I'd rather die If you could see in the future You'd know why 08. Possessed
When I go down the street
The people watch me shiver and shake I'm a prisoner of a demon I think my head's about to break It stays with me wherever I go I can't break away from its hold This must be my punishment For selling my soul Too much pressure, my pulse is rising My heart is pounding, my head really hurts I can't take it, all this pressure From all these things inside of me Everywhere I look I see them Everywhere I go they're at What did I do to deserve this Why won't they just leave my body Are they people or are they spirits Do they belong to the human race Why do they want me so bad Why won't they come out of their hiding place I can't see them, but I know they're here I can feel it in my veins All this pressure on my body Is causing all my strength to drain Am I crazy, or am I insane Or have I already lost my mind Is it real, or is it fake Or am I in a permanent bind Am I in power or am I a slave Who in hell is in control Am I still living, or am I dead Do I still have a soul I know I can't keep going this way I have to give my mind some leisure If I keep on going like this I never again will taste pleasure If they will not break the oath I will have to disband I have lost all control This thing has now taken command 09. I Saw Your Mommy
Yesterday, as I went out of the house
I saw a body lying down quiet as a mouse Lying face down in the sewer I got up closer and realized that I knew her All her organs coming from her inside Slashed up skin sliced up hide Turned her over and saw the tire tracks on her head That's when I realized she was dead I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead Twisted body chopped off feet Her body was minced meat Bugs crawling on her arms She's dead, can't do no harm Gnarled up legs, broken and bent Her last breath has been spent I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I watched her as she bled Chewed off toes on her chopped off feet I took a picture cause I thought it was neat But the thing I like seeing the best Was the rodents using her hair as a nest I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I saw her lying in a pool of red I think it's the greatest thing I'll ever see Your dead mommy lying in front of me I'll always remember her lying dead on the floor I hope she dies twenty times more I saw your mommy and your mommy is dead I saw your mommy and your mommy is dead 10. Fascist Pig
Tense atmosphere in the air
Riot written everywhere Riot squads coming from over there Time to go home if you're square Riot squad, bash their heads Kick their ass until they're dead I want to be a fascist pig Love to fight, what a thrill We don't stop until we kill I want to be a fascist pig Throw a bottle in the air Put them up to their dare We'll just laugh while they stare Let them hit us, see if we care! Get attacked by them You'll never heal They'll rob your conscience Your sanity they'll steal They'll beat your brains until they spill That's the fascist favorite meal! 11. I Want More
Don't wanna pump nobody's gas I want more
Don't wanna kiss my bosses ass I want more Don't wanna take the first job I find I want more Don't wanna dig coal out of a mine I want more Slaving in a factory a different kind of insanity Feels like I'm locked in a cage Working like a maniac, gave myself a heart attack For a job that pays minimum wage Don't wanna work at the golden arches I want more Don't wanna wash rich mans cars I want more Don't wanna be nobody's gardener I want more Don't wanna be a garbage man I want more 12. Suicidal Failure
Father forgive me for I know not what I do
I tried everything, but I'll leave it up to you I don't want to live, I don't know why I don't have no reasons, I just want to die I'm a suicidal failure, I've got to get some help I have suicidal tendencies, but I can't kill myself I'm tired of this way of life, my patience has expired I'm barely just 19, but my life I will retire I went down to a rifle store, I bought myself a gun I pointed it at my head, but I couldn't get the job done I took all my mothers sleeping pills I jumped off a freeway bridge I drank three kinds of poison And drove my car off a ridge I beat myself with a bat Put a noose around my head I overdosed on heroin But I'm still not dead Death may not be the answer, it can't be all that great But me I'm not into living, with life I can't relate By some masochistic reasoning, I think that it will be fun I want to start my second life now So shoot me with your gun |
