I ain't going to go to work, I ain't going to go to school
Life is just too complicated, to be somebody's fool
My side of the mountain, my side of the road
To live on what you need, not on what you own
To go, and make do, to get back to nature
To live, and breathe, to see but not to own
I'm going to camp out, in the trees by the freeway
Misty ice-plant, running water, and plenty of shade
Well first I'll get me a hammock
Then I'll get some food
Then I guess I could read or write
I won't have much to do
No more getting up early
Or having to go to bed
I'll do just what I want to do
Whatever comes to my head
To go, and make do, to get back to nature
To live, and breathe, to see but not to own
I'm going to camp out, in the trees by the freeway
Misty ice-plant, running water, and plenty of shade
There's a few things a modern man begins to miss from the modern world
Like a car, a color TV, a radio and a modern girl
But I'd rather miss all of that than get caught in the rat race trap
It really ain't so bad learning to live and breathe as a natural man
I ain't going to go to work, I ain't going to go to school
Life is just too complicated, to be somebody's fool
My side of the mountain, my side of the road
Cokes and Snickers is all I eat
Cokes and Snickers is all I need
Axed at howard's hack hack hack
axed at howard's by a fucking maniac
we were skaing it was fun
I saw him coming on the run
he had an axe he was pissed
he swung it hard I'm glad he missed
He got my friend he hacked his stick
chopped in half by a maniac prick
I got away 'cause I was running fast

You're a prep and that's a fact
Originality you've always lacked
I can see right through your act
You're a preppy, a preppy
By any other name, you'd still be the same
Topsiders, alligators, Calvin Klein jeans
Argyle socks, you look real keen
That's not your life man, it's Pierre Cardin's
You're a preppy, preppy
Think you're real hot, being who you're not
Of all the preppies I've been shown
I've seen something you've always known
Underneath the alligators is fucking clone
You're a preppy, preppy
Frontside air - you beef
backside air- you beef
ollie pop - you beef
can't get up - you bleed
skateboard is all I do
skateboard I'm better than you
ollie in the deep end
backside air over your chin
frontside air - six feet
backside air - six feet
ollie pop - six feet
controted andrecht contest sweep
A hall where weirdos sometimes wrestle
a fitting place for us freaks to nestle
before the pigs, before the fence
how many changes ever since
more or less punk, who's to say
who really gives a shit anyway
a wall goes up, the clothes they change
but the bloody pictures still remain
a one way ticket to the slammos
over the ring and throuh the ropes
the wall be both good and bad
climb over the top to prove you're a man
so the cooppers said it had to go
another memoryt for those that know
goodbye old place to sing and sin
Barney and Friday - Were two cats who didn't have nine lives
Barney and Friday - Were only here what seemed a short time
Barney and Friday - Didn't have that lame fetch dog personality
Barney and Friday - Were way too tuned for this reality
Barney and Friday - Don't tell me dogs are smarter
Barney and Friday - 'cause I know better
Barney and Friday - Cats know what people are all about
Barney and Friday - That's why they'd rather be left out
Barney was already dead
So was Friday but I didn't want to realize it
So I went to the pound anyway
Where they keep the dogs forever
Barking, barking, barking-barking-barking
But the cats are in cages marked 1, 2 and 3
All proud, they don't make any sound
Just a casual glance, till the hammer came down
(Some destroyed the day they were found)
Barney and Friday - Were two cats who didn't have nine lives
Barney and Friday - Were only here what seemed a short time
Barney and Friday - Didn't have that lame fetch dog personality
Barney and Friday - Were way too tuned for this reality
Barney and Friday - Cats are treated like garbage
Barney and Friday - They know what we're about
Barney and Friday - That's why they don't buy into the training shit
Barney and Friday - They'd rather be left out
Fix your animals
Too bad we can't fix you
Stupid motherfucker
I'm a teen idol ain't I cool
I'm a teen idol making loot
take a picture of my chest
little girls think I'm the best
I'm a real macho man
if anyone can do it - I sure can
I was a disco dancer and urban cowboy too
now I whip it how about you? it's fun to be fake
following trends
living other peoples lives
man the party never ends
some day I'll be a big pop star
some day I'll write a song
but now I'm just a teen idol
playing with my dong
I need a new gimmick
or I'll fade out real soon
maybe I'll turn faggot
then make all the boys swoon
if I become a movie star
and make al ot of scenes
then I can retire
Going to the kinghts of pythia hall
thrashing the goonds and having a ball
slamming in the living room dancing in the hall
in comes the bouncer adn kicks me in the balls
we don't want you
we don't need you
for what, why I didn't mean to hurt that guy
don't give us hassle 'cause we gave you lip
don't push us around 'cause you don't dig our trip
we don't need your fucking shit
and we know Tony will take care of it
[Chorus]
don't push us around 'cause you think you're boss
don't try to kick out John Haas
don't you know that rules are lost
Party on the sand
bring your van
tan girls
macho fools
punk outing
people shouting
lots of fun
drugs and sun
beach blanket bong out
beach blanket bong out
we're having the fun wasted in the sun
purple boards and short hair
we're outnumbered ut we don't care
the hippies, they hate us
we steal their chicks
they beat us up
but they're still the dicks
dicks
surf punks we're not
skateboard we do
we have the fun
Life in the balance
they play with the numbers
to work every day
you got to be accounted
the girl is a dream
the real one will work
the rock up the hill
the greek myth at work
time waits for no one
it follows you 'till done
you make your line or you blow it
it's do or die and you know it
life in a mold
used his mind and broke it
preachings next lie - blow it
useless and die - know it
like him be us
and believe that all our causes are just
'cause we know the only way
so live like us - your dying day
[Chorus]
they call themselves whatever
their message the same
be like us and you'll be the same
but they die
and we die
too bad you weren't happy
in your tent peg society
Are we not alone
living on the third stone
more stars than we can ever see
the heavens stretch infinitely
space brothers peeping down
take a good look around
earth's not all greed adn strife
we have some intelligent life
terrans are not all fools
barbarian, ruthless and cruel
leaders lead and followers follow
space brothers we await tomorrow
space brothers we are not afraid
of friends we haven't made
take us when you fly
I was just a thug on the street
then I got a uniform it looks real neat
drafted into the nazi police
looking for a sadistic release
I'll cruise the streets looking for trouble
when I find it I'll make it double
bash some heads spray some mace
kick your ribs kick your face
I'm having fun
in the sun
with my gun
I'm having fun
I'll crash your party turn in out
twist your arm until you shout
gimme a chance and I'll use my gun
Pink slip, shut out cold
why she left was never told
pink slip 86'd
quite forgotten and never missed
why'd you love me
why'd you leave me
why'd you use me
and confuse me
I've got to go
you don't want me
you don't want me
you don't want me
you don't want me
I've got to go
pink slip, out the door
can't look back, can't cry anymore
pink slip, just the same
I'll never forget what's her name
pink slip, out the door
can't look back, can't cry anymore
pink slip, 86'd
quite forgotten and never missed
punk slip burnt again
there she goes with my best friend
pink slip, poor guy
his balls will be busted
and he won't know why
punk slip, shut out cold
why she left was never told
pink slip, 86'd
You can't understand what we feel
you can't understand what is real
tell us about our nazi games
all you want is stupid fame
we want to survive not destroy
too late too late you coagulate
times running out on your pitiful state
your time ran out in 78
you say what we do is stupid
you say it's not the right way
then you say destroy authority
i'm sure no way
Frank Sue and Henry too
don't act stupid I'm talking to you
you think you're the new way
It's time to unite
we're all going to get together and do it up right
forget attitudes
just join the party and grab yourself a brew
we're rock, rock, rock, rock, rocking
under the light of the moon
talk, talk, talk, talk, talking
about things we'd like to do
we're young but we're not stupid
don't be stupid too
it's good and it's loose
have another shot of jungle juice
the party is getting loud
it's about time we set fire to the town
the cops are knock, knock, knocking
pounding outside the door
we ain't going to let them in
just party down some more
they only want to stop us
our crime is we are young
and when we get together
they know that we are strong
it's time to unite
we're all going to get together and do it up right
forget attitudes
just join the party and grab yourself a brew
we're rock, rock, rock, rock, rocking
undedr the light of the moon
talk, talk, talk, talk, talking
about things we'd like to do
we're young but we're not stupid
don't be stupid too
when we get together
Hey little big man
you aren't so tall without your friends
am I still a punker faggot
when they're not around
'cause now the odds are ven
and you know I'm gonna win
I don't care if you're sorry
or that it won't happen again
hey little big man
hiding behind our badge and your sacred laws
your laws won't protect you now
from this gun in my hand
[Chorus]
Hey little big man
so high in the bureaucratic machine
but it only takes one bullet
to knowck that machine down
We'd like to thank you uncle ron
'cause you went out and dropped the bomb
it's too bad that you still aren't alive
'cause now it's a war where the fittest survive
no more fashion conspiracies
no more football games with stupid preppies
topsiders melted credit cards burned
this is reagan's world now you've learned
bands of skaters in roving packs
we had the adaptability that you lacked
anarchy prevails you can rule us no more
you try and stop us we kick your lies out the door
we'd like to thank you uncle ron
you went out and dropped the bomb
we'd like to thank you uncle ron
You'll never find me
Know you won't forget me
By the time you found out I was gone for good!
Tricked by the scene again
Fifteen years too late my friend
Look real hard can't see through the haze!
Try to find me
Try to see me
Look real hard
You might believe me
''cause I'm gone for good!
Ripped me off for two trucks
When I only wanted fifteen bucks
Find out that your family's rich too!
Story-tellin' snowboard fool
Braggin' that you know what's cool
Only took two runs when we skated the Nude!
Try to find me
Try to see me
Look real hard
You might believe me
Yeah the lights go dim
and the profits roll in
but who stands out on the canvas
who's is it, mine or your
Fight!
yeah the risk is fair
yeah the crowd's all there
but the bead is drawn on who
does blood and sweat come out of you?
Fight!
yeah i'm on top
but i'm in hock
and who's fault is mine
right?
Fight!! Promoter!
they don't care
to see me there
only when I'm good
only then I'm good
now the dream is over
my ears my face
lost in teh chase
yeah
you and your mansion
a little kid, he grows up
and remembers me
Get a mexican
get a whip
get stupid
get pissed
get your brother
get your dad
get abusive
get mad
get in jail
get out
get some dope
get caught
get a mexican
get a whip
get stupid
I saw someone today
I'll never see again
she coudl have been a lover
she could have been a friend
I remember things always
like pictures on a wall
so much so randomly
with nothing for me at all
So I'll remember some stupid day
all that I could have done and all I could say
it's the fastest I've ever gone
and the best I can do
and for all its moments it'll never reach you
with all the places I could live
and all the people I could meet
I still don't know what to do
and still I have to eat
You talk, yeah you talk
agree? yeah you agree
you think? well we all think
right in your own mind
in the world of your room
the cold light of day
we talk, yeah we talk
agreed? yeah we're all agreed
all angles, all angles covered
no stone, no stone unturned
but its gotta be
it's all figured out
but it doesn't
When the time comes it's time to go
There's no time to take it slow
Just head on out the door
And go with the flow
Going for a midnight ride
Babette and Caper by my side
We're just out to explore
If we like we'll come back for more
We don't even have to think
We're doin' it by instinct
If we want we can go far
Just keep an eye out for cars
We're stealthy and we're sly
We smile as we go by
For us style is a must
Will you kindly eat our dust
We're going for a midnight ride
We waited for the right tide
We refuse to be denied
Destination the outside
Heading for the drop
Takin' it from the top
It's the bottom or bust
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
I can count, how 'bout you?
you think your cool,
Where do you get your ideas
for a world full of peace
when hate and evil lives and breeds
on everybody's street
gangs and nations and corporations
are promoting bloody war
the world revolves in a sea of hate
and you're flooding it with more
and still you tell me about a world
with flowers, love and peace
don't you know this can only happen
when all hatreds cease
and you hold love for your brother
and it doesn't matter who
hear our words right now and learn
And there won't be anybody left
to flash two fingers
and nobody left to congratulate the winner
it won't be like anybody promised
it'll look too real
if there's nobody left
to flash too fingers
how will we know
Music & Lyrics by Brian Brannon
Mister secret agent man
Running around the globe
He carries a knife and dagger
He carries a gun and sword
Don't ask him who is he fighting
Or who is he fighting for
Just remember that I told you
Remember I told you so
Mister secret agent man
Don't know how to just say know
Bringin' coke into the country
To support the contra role
His methods they are ruthless
To him the truth is just a lie
He's got his bugs in the bedroom
Black is the absence of light
a smoky smoggy brown sunrise
shadows grow over lazy eyes
kept asleep from darkening skies
let enlightenment invade
your problemsless slumber
smell the saccharin sanka
see the world anew
awaking up
morning tea
diminishing dreamsof the night
where peace slept and your contentment lies
turning on to the one-eyed monster
dropping anchor in its subliminal harbor
I could surely do
all that this guy does
I could indulge all his broads
but I'm not him
Rosy glasses ignore
that all is tunnel vision
to choose not to choose
One day at the ramp
like any other day
we were ripping it up
just skating away
moped don and me
getting burly
at the channel pull an air
do grinds over there
Just having fun
hurting no one
except ourselves
and maybe your dad
he said come over here
that's what i did
but he didn't see me
he saw danny skating
he was angry
he yellad at him
get off your board
danny said
"let's get out of here
this guy's a fucking dick"
and he was
Get outta the road Get outta my lane
Get out my way
Get outta the road
Get outta my lane
Get out my way
Slower traffic must move to the right
Unless you want to get yourself into a fight
Use your signal and step onto that gas
Or this next curve just might be your last
Get outta the road
Get outta my lane
Get out my way
Get outta the road
Get outta my lane
Get out my way
Thirty-two through a sixty-five
Go back to school and learn how to drive
The freeway is made for getting there
Not for idjits who are going nowhere
Get outta the road
Get outta my lane
Get out my way
Get outta the road
Get outta my lane
I'm watching the wind blow back thunder across the sky
white lightning cracks and bends while my hair stands on end
rain falls like an avalanche cascading down on my head
i'm running for shelter realizing there's none nowhere
rain falls down beneath the clouds
tunder crashes, roaring loud
I'm standing outside, so far from home
this black night I'm all alone
and it grows calm, but sprinkles on
releif's in sight, till lightning strikes
in an instant, a tree cries then crashes down on the ground
it once was a living thing, standing tall and proud
I want to surrender, but I'm already a prisoner
I got to get my shit together to weather this lightning storm
rain falls down beneath the clouds
thunder crashes roaring loud
I'm standing outside, so far from home
this bleak night I'm all alone
and it grows calm, but sprinkles on
For 17 years you hated me
you never cared about me
now that you're down and your life is through
here's my chance to kick you
You laugh when you see a dog die
but when everything's alright you cry
you laugh at everything I do
I hate Johnny D
he's such a fucking geek
playing all that lame shit
trying for a new wave hit
your lame, phoenix is tame
you suck, my life's a rut
go die, you're why
we know, you fucked beardo
I hate Clyde Geek
stupid bar where kickers meet
now he's gone country too
dog dick face we hate you
[Chorus]
I hated K-15
new wave fonzies think I'm mean
playing all that lame shit
catering to preppie dicks
I hate fucked merlins
cover bands that get girls in
jetzon boys you fucking dicks
go to HB and see who kicks
He shot Reagan, he shot the pig, didn't he?
he shot the secretary in the head, didn't he? between the eyes, in the chest, .22's are the best
for your dear, for your honey kill the prez, leave the rest
we're Jodie Foster's Army, Jodie Foster's Army!
In your room, plot the crime, mom and dad's house
People mag, Jodie dear, for you I'll kill that louse
shoot the prez, shoot a cop, the secretary too
Fresh out of school, nowhere to go
no more lunch money to save for the show
no more hangin' round with the usual crew
there's nothin' to do, nothin' to
no more chicks to love
no more classes to ditch
no more jocks to hate
no more teachers that bitch
if you wanted a chick or needed a fuck
all you needed was a 4wd truck
but live is different now
sit back and think holy cow
runnin' out of money fast
the easy life is in the past
[Chorus]
If you wanted a piece of as
all you needed was a 6 pack and ga
but life is different now
sit back and think holy cow
runnin' out of money fast
the easy life is in the past
They tell the children pledge allegiance
it's not as if they have a choice
trained early not to question
which country is the best
build up the military at the expense of hte poor
at the expense of the poor
we must protect world freedom
no matter what their choice
It's Not right there's no reason [x4]
they teach the children hatred for
communist governments
they're just our reflection
mirror image of stupidity
they both tell lies in the name of justice
they both demand loyalty from their subjects
And the works arise
from dead spiders
as the world wonder why
the bright get brighter
but that's only one way
to look at it
the happy get happy
the sad sadder
Go ahead and look away
there's only one one view on things
and that's mine
so go ahead and look away
it's the only answer
only one that I could find
SO things look different
and they're the same
individual worlds
so who's to blame
and you're not reading this
they way I wrote it
so knock if youdon't
Loud is my scream... Deaf as your ears
when fun is outlawed...only the outlaws will have fun
I love broads that's why I kill 'em
I love broads that's why I kill 'em
I love broads that's why I kill 'em
I love broads that's why I have to
Joe is not spoken but he wants to be heard
my life is outlawed now I have you
I don't like you
I don't like you
I don't like you
I don't like you
the way you walk
the way you talk
because you lose
the way you use
the way you are
expensive cars
blow dried hair
you never cared
In a field of nowhere blossoms
a shiny couple stand sitting
with visions of haze from cosmic rays
that will get them no more than home
to a place to geel strong
and to bring their friends along
a place where they belong
a place to not be wrong
Carried off floating away
from the day's busy haze
habits and masquerades
falseness and charades
to a place where nothing is wrong
and every singer has a song
where all can get along
People's minds
gone to sleep
while evil lingers
and bad things creep
watch TV all the time
something stalks just outside
and they're sleeping
they're not sleeping
and it's a nightmare
nightmare
watch the news
every other day
it nearly scares my wits away
politician says he's my friend
ut he's a demon in the end
and I'm not sleeping
I wish I was sleeping
'cause it's a nightmare
Fourth crisis in the world today
but you look the other way
you keep on taking care of the biz
that's where the money is
generals and senators gone insane
but you look the other way
you don't give a shit
reagan will take care of it
all that freedom means to me
is freedom to make more money
fuck the arabs, fuck the jews
Well, once in a town by Kapokee Land
there was a path, a sea and a land
the neighbors weren't very nice though
they made is a mysterious place to go
the giraffes they didnt' know what to do they weren't very happy at the zoo
they stretched their long and slender necks
to try and get the leaves
they couldn't and the gorillas cried boo hoo
they didnt' dig life at the zoo
they could only eat and piss and poo
while the humans examined everything they'd do
they teased and laughed at the animals
made faces at the animals
but what the humans didn't know
they were confined in cages that didn't show
so the peopel came and went away
back to the ever daily day
with little to do and less to say
and their minds would wander
and their thoughts would stray
past the walls of Kapookee Land
castles of mud, rivers of sand
what they wouldn't understand
is they lived in a prison built by man
so man survived and life went on
stood on the verge of getting it on
never knowing all along
that somewhere something was all wrong
the walls that he sat behind
were vague and undefined
and so he'd never find
he was confined inside
I hate school 'cause it sucks
I hate your face I see it too much
I hate trendys 'cause they're dumb
and plastic chicks that don't even cum
We know, we know we know, we know you suck
I hate Phoenix boring place
narrow-minded people fucking waste
rip it up is my cry
The thing sped but it's got to be quiet
like a glide
why doesn't it feel alright
nothings been mapped out since the day
walt disney died
how's it gonna be funny
all the colors
I heard they froze him in Arizona
like a frog
better do something else
everything but nothing lost
no guarantees
fuck we cant' even ask alice anymore
all different nothing new
the moments are few
to my mom it would be like
I can't come to practice ''cause my car won't start
Went back on the shit ''cause my girl broke my heart
Can't make it tommorow ''cause my mom's on the rag
Forty minutes late I'm a perennial lag
No more excuses
Spent an hour in the bathroom I was just gettin' ready
Can't drive my truck ''cause my chick won't let me
Someone's got to take me ''cause I don't have a ride
Don't be here too soon ''cause I'm never on time
No more excuses
Gotta borrow someone's set ''cause mine is in hock
When I tell you what happened you'll be in for a shock
Can't do it no more my other band's gettin' signed
Was out gettin' coffee you should've seen the line
No more excuses
Need to get a hanger ''cause my muffler fell off
Had to make a detour ''cause my cat has a cough
Blew off last Sunday ''cause I couldn't make the session
I swear that I'm clean it's just clinical depression
Exchanging glances
we're not really living
exchanging glances
the star of my movie
exchanging glances
can you really touch me
exchanging glances
Mister secret agent man

Hey there excuse me miss
I'm sorry that I stopped you on the street like this
But you look like someone that I once knew
Don't you recognize me?
I used to live down at the end of your street
Tell me how's things girl, what's been up with you?
Pretty lies can't disguise the pain that I see in your eyes
You can't fool this whole world no matter how hard you try
I can't but what your selling me
And there's more to the story you ain't telling me
Hey little sister, it's been a long time and I've missed ya
Tell me what your doing out here all alone
Hey baby girl, now tell me what's wrong with the world now
Did you take the wrong turn, can you find your way home?
You used to play hopscotch and double dutch
But you were kind of shy, didn't say too much
Tell me is that little girl still inside of you
You had big dreams and your big brown eyes
Trying to be the brightest star in the sky
But fairy tails don't always come true
Pretty lies can't disguise the pain that I see in your eyes
You can't fool this whole world no matter how hard you try
I can't but what your selling me
And there's more to the story you ain't telling me
Hey little sister, it's been a long time and I've missed ya
Tell me what your doing out here all alone
Hey baby girl, now tell me what's wrong with the world now
Did you take the wrong turn, can you find your way home?
You tell me girl you're okay, atleast that's what you say
See the pain, it might as well be written on your face
Tried to be a star, didn't get too far
Cause someone took your dream and tore it all apart
Well you don't mind me sayin', it's yourself you're playin'
You're messin' with your life, you think it's all a game
You tried it on your own and now you're all alone
I think you better check yourself and find your way back home
I can't but what your selling me
And there's more to the story you ain't telling me
Hey little sister, it's been a long time and I've missed ya
Tell me what your doing out here all alone?
Hey baby girl, now tell me what's wrong with this world now
Did you take the wrong turn, can you find your way home?
Hey little sister, it's been a long time and I've missed ya
Tell me what your doing out here all alone?
Hey baby girl, now tell me what's wrong with the world now
Did you take the wrong turn, can you find your way home?
Little sister, it's been a long time, long time
