The Love Song

The bullet: "i've got a crush on a pretty pistol
Should I tell her that I feel this way ?
Father told us to be faithful
I've got a crush on a pretty pistol
Should I tell her that I feel this way ?
I've got love songs in my head that are killing us away"

The father: "do you love your guns ?" yeah
"God ?" yeah "your government ?"
"Do you love your guns ?" yeah
"God ?" yeah "your government ?" fuck yeah

The bullet: "she tells me I'm a pretty bullet
I'm gonna be a star someday
Mother says that we should look away
She tells me I'm a pretty bullet, an imitation christ
I've got love songs in my head that are killing us away"

The father: "do you love your guns ?" yeah
"God ?" yeah "your government ?" fuck yeah

Personal Jesus

Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who's there

Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer

Take second best
Put me to the test
Things on your chest
You need to confess
I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver

Reach out and touch faith
Reach out and touch faith
Your own personal Jesus

Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By the telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer
I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver

Reach out and touch faith
Your own personal Jesus
Reach out and touch faith

mOBSCENE

We are the things and shapes to come
Your freedom's not free of dumb

The deformation age

Pain- they want it

They told us is not good
We know it's great

The Fight Song

Nothing suffocates you more than
The passing of everyday human events
Isolation is the oxygen mask you make
Your children breath into survive


But i'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
But i'm not a slave to world
That doesn't give a shit


And when we were good
You just closed you eyes
So when we are bad
We're going to scar your minds


Fight, fight, fight, fight


You'll never grow up to be a big-
Rock-star-celebrated-victim-of-your-fame
They'll just cut our wrists like
Cheap coupons and say that death
Was on sale today


And when we were good
You just closed you eyes
So when we are bad
We're scar your minds


But i'm not a slave to a god
That doesn't exist
But i'm not a slave to world
That doesn't give a shit


The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
But death of a million is just a statistic


(chorus)


Fight, fight, fight, fight

Tainted Love

Sometimes i feel i've got to
Run away, i've got to
Get away,
From the pain u drive in the heart of me.
The love we share

And i've lost my life
For i toss and turn i cant sleep at night

The Dope Show

The drugs they say
Make us feel so hollow
We love in vain
Narcissistic and so shallow
The cops and queers
To swim you have to swallow
Hate today
There's no love for tomorrow

We're all stars now in the dope show

There's a lot of pretty, pretty ones
That want to get you high
But all the pretty, pretty ones
Will leave you low
And blow your mind

They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not then they love another

The drugs they say
Are made in california
We love your face
We'd really like to sell you
The cops and queers
Make good-looking models
I hate today
Who will i wake up with tomorrow ?

There's a lot of pretty, pretty ones
That want to get you high
But all the pretty, pretty ones
Will leave you low
And blow your mind

They love you when you're on all the covers
When you're not then they love another

We're all stars now in the dope show

Disposable Teens

and I'm a black rainbow
and I'm an ape of god
I got a face that's made for doing violence upon
I'm a teen distortion
survived abortion
a rebel from the waist down
I wanna thank you mom
I wanna thank you dad
for bringing this fucking world
to a bitter end
I never really hated a one true god
but the god of the people I hated
you said you wanted evolution
the ape was a great big hit
you say you want a revolution, man
and I say that you're full of shit
we're disposable teens
we're disposable teens
we're disposable teens
we're disposable

we're disposable teens
we're disposable teens
we're disposable teens
we're disposable

you said you wanted evolution
the ape was a great big hit
you say you want a revolution, man
and I say that you're full of shit
The more that you fear us
the bigger we get
the more that you fear us
the bigger we get
and don't be surprised, don't be surprised
don't be surprised when we destroy all of it

we're disposable teens
we're disposable teens
we're disposable teens
we're disposable

Sweet Dreams

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree ?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

Refrain:
Some of them want to use you
Some of them want to get used by you
Some of them want to abuse you
Some of them want to be abused


Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree ?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something.

Refrain

I wanna use you and abuse you
I wanna know what's inside you

Hold your head up, movin' on. Keep your head up, movin' on. x 3

Movin' on!

Sweet dreams are made of this
Who am I to disagree ?
Travel the world and the seven seas
Everybody's looking for something

Refrain

I'm gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside
Gonna use you and abuse you
I'm gonna know what's inside you

Lunchbox

On we plow
The big bully try to stick his finger in my chest
Try to tell me, tell me he's the best
But i don't really give a good goddamn cause
I got my lunchbox and i'm armed real well
I got my lunchbox and i'm armed real well
I got my lunchbox and i'm armed real well
I wanna grow up
I wanna be a big rock and roll star
I wanna grow up
I wanna be
So no one fucks with me
I got the pencils in my pocket, try to put me down
Wanna go out, gotta get out
To the playground, gonna throw down at the playground
I wanna go out
Next motherfucker gonna get my metal
Next motherfucker gonna get my metal
Next motherfucker gonna get my metal
Next motherfucker gonna get my metal
Pow pow pow, pow pow pow, pow pow pow, pow pow pow
I wanna grow up
I wanna be a big rock and roll star
I wanna grow up
I wanna be
So no one fucks with me

Tourniquet

She's made of hair and bone and little teeth
And things I cannot speak
She comes on like a crippled plaything
Spine is just a string

I wrapped our love in all this foil
Silver-tight like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoil
But flies will always lay their eggs

Refrain:
Take your hatred out on me
Make your victim my head
You never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet

Prosthetic synthesis with butterfly
Sealed up with virgin stitch
If it hurts, just tell me
Preserve the innocence
I never wanted it to end this way
But flies will lay their eggs

Refrain x 2

Rock Is Dead

All simple monkeys with alien babies
Amphetamines for boys
Crucifixes for ladies
Sampled and soulless
Worldwide and real webbed
You sell all the living
For more safer dead

Anything to belong

Rock is deader than dead
Shock is all in your head
Your sex and your dope is all that we're fed
So fuck all your protests and
Put them to bed

God is in the t.v.

1,000 mothers are praying for it
We're so full of hope
And so full of shit
Build a new god
To medicate and to ape
Sell us ersatz
Dressed up and real fake

Anything to belong

Rock is deader than dead
Shock is all in your head
Your sex and your dope is all that we're fed
So fuck all your protests and
Put them to bed

God is in the t.v.

Get Your Gunn

Goddamn your righteous hand
I eat innocent meat
The housewife i will beat
The profile i will kill
What you don't do i will
I bash myself to sleep
What you saw i will reap
I scar myself you will see
I wish i wasn't me
I am the little stick
You stir me into shit
I hate therefore i am
Goddamn your rightous hand
Goddamn, goddamn
Goddamn, goddamn
Pseudo-morals work real well
On the talk shows for the weak
But your selective judgements
And goodguy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me
I throw a little fit
I slit my teenage wrist
The most that i can learn
Is in records that you burn
Get your gunn, get your gunn
Get your gunn, get your gunn
Pseudo-morals work real well
On the talk shows for the weak
But your selective judgements
And goodguy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me
I am the vhs
Record me with your fist
You want me to save the world
I'm just a little girl
Pseudo-morals work real well
On the talk shows for the weak
But your selective judgements
And goodguy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me
Get your gunn, get your gunn
Get your gunn, get your gunn... get

The Nobodies

Today i am dirty
I want to be pretty
Tomorrow, i know i'm just dirt


Today i am dirty
I want to be pretty
Tomorrow, i know i'm just dirt


We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead,
They'll know just who we are


We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead,
They'll know just who we are


Yesterday i was dirty
Wanted to be pretty
I know now that i'm forever dirt


Yesterday i was dirty
Wanted to be pretty
I know now that i'm forever dirt


We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead,
They'll know just who we are


We are the nobodies
We wanna be somebodies
When we're dead,
They'll know just who we are


Some children died the other day
We fed machines and then we prayed
Puked up and down in morbid faith
You should have seen the ratings that day

The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell

Want to fly into your sun
Need faith to make me numb
Live like a teenage christ
Im a saint, got a date with suicide

Oh Mary, Mary
To be this young is oh so scary
Mary, Mary
To be this young im oh so scared
I wanna live, I wanna love
But its a long hard road, out of hell
I wanna live, I wanna love
But its a long hard road, out of hell

You never said forever, could ever hurt like this
You never said forever, could ever hurt like this

Spin my way out of hell, theres nothing left this soul to sell


Live fast and die fast too
How many times to do this for you ?
How many times to do this for you ?

Mary, Mary
To be this young im oh so scared
I wanna live, I wanna love
But its a long hard road, out of hell
I wanna live, I wanna love
But its a long hard road, out of hell

You never said forever, could ever hurt like this
You never said forever, could ever hurt like this

I wanna live, I wanna love
But its a long hard road, out of hell

Long hard road, out of hell

I wanna live, I wanna love
But its a long hard road, out of hell

Sell my soul for anything, anything but you
Sell my soul for anything, anything but you

The Beautiful People

I don't want you and I don't need you
don't bother to resist, I'll beat you
It's not your fault that you're always wrong
the weak ones are there to justify the strong
the beautiful people, the beautiful people
it's all relative to the size of your steeple
you can't see the forest for the trees
you can't smell
your own shit on your knees

There's no time to discriminate,
hate every motherfucker
that's in your way

Hey you, what do you see?
something beautiful and something free ?
hey you, are you trying to be mean?
if you live with apes man, it's hard to be clean

the worms will live in every host
it's hard to pick which one they eat most
the horrible people, the horrible people
it's as anatomic as the size of your steeple
capitalism has made it this way,
old-fashioned fascism
will take it away

Hey, you, what do you see ?
something beautiful and something free ?
hey you, are you trying to be mean ?
if you live with apes man, it's hard to be clean

there's no time to discriminate,
hate every motherfucker
that's in your way

hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey..

The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people

Hey, you, what do you see ?
something beautiful and something free ?
hey you, are you trying to be mean ?
if you live with apes man, it's hard to be clean

Hey, you, what do you see ?
something beautiful and something free ?
hey you, are you trying to be mean ?
if you live with apes man, it's hard to be clean

The Reflecting God

Your world is an ashtray
We burn and coil like cigarettes
The more you cry your ashes turn to mud

It's the nature of the leeches
The virgin's feeling cheated
You've only spent a second of your life

My world is unaffected
There is an exit here
I say it is and then it's true
There is a dream inside a dream
I'm wide awake the more I sleep
You'll understand when I'm dead

Pont:
I went to god just to see
And I was looking at me
Saw heaven and hell were lies
When I'm god everybody dies

Refrain:
Scar, can you feel my power ?
Shoot here and the world gets smaller
Scar, scar, can you feel my power ?
One shot and the world gets smaller

Let's jump upon the sharp swords
And cut away our smiles
Without the threat of death
There's no reason to live at all
My world is unaffected
There is an exit here
I say it is and then it's true
There is a dream inside a dream
I'm wide awake the more I sleep
You'll understand when I'm dead

Pont + Refrain

"Each thing I show you is a piece of my death"
Shoot shoot shoot motherfucker
No salvation, no forgiveness..
"This is beyond your experience"
Forgiveness...

(s)Aint

I don't care if your world is ending today
Because I wasn't invited to it anyway
You said I tasted famous so I drew you a heart
But now I'm not an artist, I'm a fucking work of art

I got an F and a C, and I got a K too
And the only thing that's missing is a bitch like u

You wanted perfect, you got your perfect
Now I'm too perfect for someone like you
I was a dandy in your ghetto with a snow white smile
But you'll never be as perfect whatever you do

What's my name ? What's my name ?
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Hold the S because I am an ain't

What's my name ? What's my name ?
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Hold the S because I am an ain't

Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Ah-ah, Ah-ah

I am bone top, a deathset, on a mop stick
You infected me to diamonds, I took all your shit
Your sell-by-date expired so you had to be sold
I'm a suffer-genius and then a sex symbol

You wanted perfect, you got your perfect
Now I'm too perfect for someone like you
I was a dandy in your ghetto with a snow white smile
But you'll never be as perfect whatever you do

What's my name ? What's my name ?
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Hold the S because I am an ain't

What's my name ? What's my name ?
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Hold the S because I am an ain't

Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Ah-ah, Ah-ah

I got an F and a C, and I got a K too
And the only thing that's missing is u

I got an F and a C, and I got a K too
And the only thing that's missing is a bitch like u

I got an F and a C, and I got a K too
And the only thing that's missing is a bitch like u

I am the penny in your ghetto with a snow white smile
Super ego-bitch, I've been evil a while

I am a dandy in your ghetto with a snow white smile
Super ego-bitch, I've been evil a while

What's my name ? What's my name ?
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Hold the S because I am an ain't

What's my name ? What's my name ?
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Hold the S because I am an ain't

What's my name ? What's my name ?
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Hold the S because I am an ain't

What's my name ? What's my name ?
Ah-ah, Ah-ah
Hold the S because I am an ain't

Irresponsible Hate Anthem

Am so all-american, I'll sell you suicide
I am totalitarian, I've got abortions in my eyes
I hate the hater, I'd rape the raper
I am not the animal who will not be himself
fuck it
Hey victim, should I black your eyes again ?
Hey victim,
you were the one who put the stick in my hand
I am the ism, my hate's a prism
let's jut kill everyone and let your god sort them out
fuck it
Everybody's someone else's nigger/I know you are so am I
I wasn't born with enough middle fingers/
I don't need to choose a side
I better, better, better, better not say this
better, better, better, better not tell
I hate the hater, I'd rape the raper
I am the idiot who will not be himself
fuck it
(refrain)

Coma White

There's something cold and blank behind her smile
She's standing on an overpass
In her miracle mile
(coma):
"you were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
Today to run away"

A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself

Her mouth was an empty cut
And she was waiting to fall
Just bleeding like a polaroid that
Lost all her dolls
(coma):
"you were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away today
Today to run away"

A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
