Sick of people-no one's 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 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 Suicide's an alternative Well I've got a little story to tell About a little red-assed punk that came from Hell He said Satan's been looking especially for me He said Satan's got a paper gonna set your body free He said power and glory, bitches for screwin' All in your name and all for you today Oh yeah Power and fame, all in your name All the gold and bitches you ever could have Oh yeah You'll have power, fame, all in your name All that you want, all that you need Everything that you ever could read Anything anything that you ever would need Well sign the paper that's all you do Sign the paper it's ready too Anything there it's all for you Well this is all you got to do So I looked him in the eye and I said "Fuck you you little red-assed goblined-breathed horned-hed motherfucker!" Cause I don't care too much about gold And I don't really give a fuck about what you've been told And I don't really care for anyone looking after me Cause I'm a meaner son of a bitch than that fuck ever could be 02. Two Sided Politics
I'm not anti-society, society is anti-me
I'm not anti-religion, religion 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, go straight to jail Kill someone in a war Get a medal, you're a hero Protect yourself in everyday war You're a minority, you go straight to jail I'm not anti, anti'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. 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 TV, 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? They're fucking with me subliminally They're fucking with me subliminally Mind control the easiest way Sponsored by the CIA It's a weapon you cannot see It's propaganda subliminally They're fucking with me subliminally They're fucking with me subliminally 04. I Shot The Devil
I shot Reagan, I shot Sadat
I'm gonna shot you dead in heaven you'll rot You're gonna rot in heave, hear an angel's voice You're too bad for hell, although it's you first choice Rot in heave, 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 angel's voice You're too bad for hell although it's your first choice 05. Won't Fall In Love
Baby, don't you be blue
You know that I'll always be true You know 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. Institutionalised
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 go: No it's okay, you know I'll figure it out, just leave me alone I'll figure it out You know I'll just work 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. And I go: No I don't want to I'm okay, I'll figure it out myself And they just keep bugging me and they just keep bugging me And it builds up inside and it builds up inside So you're gonna be institutionalized You'll come out brainwashed with bloodshot eyes You won't have any say They'll brainwash you until you see their way I'm not crazy - in an institution You're the one who's crazy in an institution You're driving me crazy in an institution 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 even hear it, and then she started screaming: MIKE! MIKE! And I go: What, what's the matter? And she goes: What's the matter with you? I go: There's nothing wrong mom And she goes: Don't tell me that, you're on drugs! And 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 And 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 act that way! I go: Mom just give 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 was sitting in my room and 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, You've been going off for no reason and we're afraid You're gonna hurt somebody, We're afraid you're gonna hurt yourself So we decided that it would be in your 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 interest?! How can you know what's 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 It doesn't matter, I'll probably get hit by a car anyway 07. War Inside My Head
War inside my head
War inside my head War inside my head War inside my head War inside my head ain't a pretty sight But I don't want no sympathy It's happened a thousand times before It's just a harsh reality War inside my head-can you sense it War inside my head-can you see it War inside my head-can you feel it War inside my head Can you hear the-pain Can you see the-pain Can you sense the-pain Can you feel the-pain Can you help the-pain Can you fix the-pain Can you taste the-pain Can you hear the war inside my head The only thing real is the way I feel And that's the pain that's deep inside That battle from within is gonna begin And there ain't nowhere to hide War inside my head every night and day I never get no piece of mind It ought to be a sin, I just can't win And pure hell is all I find 08. Don't Give Me Your Nothin'
Don't you give me give me give me your borrowed time
Don't you give me give me give me your recycled line Who do you think you are? You must think you're something Don't you give me give me give me you're here to help me Got to get with the program, I don't need no charity I don't need shit and you ain't nothing And if I made a perfect world you'd be gone Don't give me give me give me your misguided help Don't give me your nothin', I can do it myself Well I don't want shit and I don't need nothing Don't you give me give me give me your look of concern I don't need your meddling when you gonna learn Well you ain't shit and you ain't nothin' Well I just made my perfect world-oops you're gone Well now you know what it feels like not to belong-so long So don't you give me give me give me your nothing-no Don't you give me give me give me your nothing-no Don't you give me give me give me your nothing-no Don't give me your second-hand sympathy Don't give me your nothin', just let me be Who do you think you are? You must think you're something Don't you give me give me give me your worried tone You can't fool me with that crap just leave me alone And I don't need it, I don't need nothing Now I have a perfect world, now you're gone-oh oh oh Don't give me your nothin', don't give me your nothin' Don't give me give me give me that "What did I do?" You don't have to do nothing, you're just being you I'll tell you why, you ain't nothing If you make your perfect world you will find The only place that's perfect is in your mind What's perfect for you is like a hell for me Two perfect worlds, it just cannot possibly be-oh oh oh oh Don't give me your nothin' Don't give me give me give me your "I'll be there" I don't believe how you lie, you don't care Don't give me your shit, don't give me your nothin' Don't give me give me give me your "I love you" They just are words and the words ain't true You're full of shit, your words mean nothing And I just made my perfect world, now you're gone And in my perfect world your perfect world don't belong-so long No no-don't give me your nothin' No no-don't give me your nothin' No no-don't give me your nothin' No no-don't give me your nothin' 09. 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 goodbye the nuclear arsenal A-bombs flying off their ramps Nuclear bombs explode Radioactive 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 Memories of tomorrow 10. 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 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 the 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 Possessed 11. I Saw Your Mommy...
Yesterday as I went out of the house
I saw a body lying down quiet as a mouse She was lying face down in the sewer What you do-I got up closer and realized that I knew her What you see-All her organs coming from her inside That's nasty-Slashed up skin, sliced-up hide Tell me some more-Turned her over and saw the tire tracks on her head Then what-That's when I realized she was dead Twisted body, chopped-off feet her body was minced meat Bust 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 wonder how much you had to pay To get your mom killed in such a bloody way I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I watched her as she bled Well she had-Chewed-off toes on her chopped-off feet Say what?-I took a picture 'cause I thought it was neat That's cold-But the thing I like seeing the best What's that-Was the rodents using her hair as a nest Damn-I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I know it is your allowance that you'll really miss But make it look good at her funeral and give her a kiss I saw your mommy and your mommy's dead I saw her lying in a pool of read-And she doesn't know how to swim I think it's the greatest thing I'll ever see-What's that? 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 I saw her, I saw her...mommy I saw your mommy 12. 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 bas 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 me see if I 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 13. Little Each Day
Took a walk down under the street
Never thought that I'd see the day I would meet Came and whispered in my ear But I tried to pretend that I didn't hear Turned my head and I walked away I tried to forget what they had to say Put on a smile and I tried to hide But I couldn't keep myself from crying inside Oh I...So I turned my head and I walked away Oh I...And I tried to forget what he had to say Oh I...And I chalked it up as another day Oh I say...I died a little today Took a journey through my brain And they saw the scars and they felt my pain Saw the things I didn't want to find Knew the dreams I had over a bottle of wine Thought if I lied I was going to win But they said the battle wouldn't even begin Thought about the lies that I said to myself But I knew it's too late to find the help 14. I Want More
In times of trouble fall to my knees and I look to the sky
Cause me, me I want more The classification of our heart's a sin Cause me, me I want more Don't wanna pump nobody's gas-I want more Don't wanna kiss my boss's 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 was no rich man's cars-I want more Don't wanna be nobody's gardener-I want more Don't wanna be no garbage man-I want more I sit and reflect about all that I've learned and all that I've seen Cause me me I want more The memories come and they go away Cause me me I want more Don't wanna pump nobody's gas-I want more Don't wanna kiss my boss's 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 I want more 15. 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 20 but my life I will retire I went down to a rifle store, I bought myself a gun I point it at my head but I couldn't get the job done I took all my mother's 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 I'm looking forward-suicidal I'm really bored-suicidal You wanna die-suicidal Then die-suicidal Honestly-suicidal At the game-suicidal At my school-suicidal At the bar-suicidal Suicidal Suicidal Suicidal Suicidal |
