it's one o'clock, I just woke up, my head is in a vice
I look outside, the weather's nice, how can I pass the time
I'm thinking hard, nothing so far, the day is almost threw
the bulb went on and then I knew the one thing I must do
skate the day away
I grind the curb and trick the box and skate away the day
I ollie stones and do great stuff and face plant on the way
if you ask and ask just once about why I skate today
it's simply so, I just don't know, "it's fine with me" i'll say
grab your board and go! skate the day!
grab your board!
after work, skate that shit!
after school, skate that shit!
me and my board, skate that shit!
the fucking crew, skate that shit!
skating fast and playing fast,
i'll see the world from the back of a van,
is all i wanna fucking do, i don't care what you think
skate for fun with my friends
is that a good enough reason for you?, i don't care what you say
skate that shit asshole!
day or night, skate that shit!
bombing hills, skate that shit!
empty lots, skate that shit!
taking spills, skate that shit!
you say that i should give up
and you think i'm wasting my time
i didn't ask for your opinion this is my life!
skating late,
a little past two,
dark empty lot just me and the crew,
across the street we heard a sound,
stopped in our tracks and rolled to stop
the dead were rising from the grave,
they wanted our boards,
they wanted our brains,
ripped the flesh from our necks
then grabbed the boards and hit the cement!
what the fuck?
is going on?
the living dead,
will thrash it up!
skate of the dead,
tail slaps and human snacks!
skate of the dead
and they're never coming back!
nowhere to run,
nowhere to hide,
they'll take your board and eat you alive,
skate of the dead not fucking around,
it's summer again
let's head to the shore
jump into our bathing suits,
grab the boogie board
it's a beautiful day
the water is clear
we dive into the ocean and we swim with no delay
and with our surf boards
we catch some big waves
suddenly we're knocked off by something we can't explain
it's a shark attack!
they circle round, and we're trapped
oh my god he bit my leg,
the water's red, it's not my day
is this it, the way I die
now i'm in his jaws of death,
They dress you up
In uniforms
Enslave your mind
Force you to conform
[Chorus]
Schools are brainwash
They're telling you lies
Schools are brainwash
Better open your eyes
They'll keep you on your knees
And teach you to obey
So as you grow you're nothing more
Than just they're fucking slave
[Chorus]
They'll get you when you're young
And fit you into a mold
Cause those with no free will
Are so easy to control
They'll tell you fucking lies
And call it an education
It's just force fed obedience
Through indoctrination
it's not what u think it is, just another phase, I'm getting older
every day and I still feel the same,
wasn't here in your heyday that's not what its about,
get up front that's all there is the time is fucking now
mainstream, rules, and ignorant kids have ruined it fucking all,
punk rock is on life support and I just wont let it fall
punks dead, you're killing it, your next, ill see to it
its not what u think it is, just another phase,
I'm getting older everyday and I still feel the same,
wasn't here in your heyday that's not what its about,
get up front that's all there is the time is fucking now!
its not about the T shirts, stop wasting your fucking time,
See the preacher on my TV
He is telling lies to me
Says my soul can be set free
As long as i pay a nominal fee
[Chorus]
Evangelists
With dollar signs in their eyes
Speak the word of god
But they're telling lies
Ripping off
The elderly
It's prayer for profit on your TV
Believe in god and the words he speaks
Empty your pockets at least once a week
Collection plate comes, better make a donation
Pay through the teeth for eternal salvation
[Chorus]
Make out your checks to Jesus Christ
Installment plan for the afterlife
Jesus saves all who asks
at the shows you got something to prove?
don't like us or what we do
you say hardcore is about "unity and respect"?
well its not the image you project
talking shit to a screen, fucking lame,
you know what i mean?
at the shows you don't say shit
with folded arms enforce the pit
force me back and i won't stop,
this fucking shit has got to stop
i'm fucking sick of it
go home later pc on
i see that you have left your mark
you really think you know it all?
well i just laugh and i move on
has it really come to this?
point! and! click! core!
I don't wanna sit and talk and I don't wanna play baseball
I don't wanna hear the score, all that shit is such a bore
I wanna hear the music fast I wanna jump and yell and thrash
and then I'm gonna take a break and go back for a second take
I just wanna circle pit!
well I don't wanna go to church
and I don't wanna hear your lies
blind me with your fucking crosses,
blind by greed and dollar signs
I just wanna circle pit!
circle pits and horror flicks,
and b movies and skateboard decks
life is short, thrash real hard
skating and rolling were slashing the coping,
skating the streets, skating for me,
i think that you take this too seriously,
your head needs adjusting it's easy to see,
please lose your style, fuck the attitude,
grab that fucking board,
just shut your mouth and skate!
living my life from session to session,
just having fun, while i'm progressing
i may not be thrashing the park into pieces,
at least i'm not using the ramps as my bleachers,
i could care less if your better than me,
it's fun not competing i'm skating for me,
Couple parked in a car...Up on Skyline Drive
They wanted to make out..Picked the wrong fucking night
[Chorus]
Paralyzed by the dashboard light
Madman in the shadows...All wacked out on speed
Comes across the lovers...Wants to make them bleed
[Chorus]
They were barely seventeen...And the were barely dressed
jumping over turtle shells it makes you feel good,
avoid falling in the trap like you should,
it's not a competition cuz this game is getting old,
hit the restart button cuz it's time to fucking fold
your always
one up
one up on me,
one up
one up on you
it's a one dimension story in three dimension time,
i'm staring blankly at the screen i can't believe this crap,
is it all fun and games to you?
are you having a good time?
i'm laughing in your face because you'll never ruin mine
i can't believe this crap,
there's no reason why you should try to hang on,
your always
one up
one up on me,
one up
too many thoughts my minds a mess, over analyze in my head
pen and paper in my brain
the second guesses drive me insane
note to self, shut up!
my brains online frayed at both ends,
traffic jam inside my head
treading water to get by and all the time I'm wondering why
note to self, shut up!
and everyday, the fuse is getting shorter
and everyday life has me in
order and everyday I'm getting closer to death,
everyday is my chance!
It started back in high school
At a party was your first time
Everybody else was doing it
You figured you'd only do one line
[Chorus]
Cut it up, Snort it up, Get fucked up...Nose Candy
Now you're fucking hooked
Your life revolves around the blow
Every cent you fucking make
Goes right up your fucking nose
[Chorus]
Now look at yourself
You're one step away from death
A mirror and a razorblade
Is all that you have left
All of my life I've always been an outcast
Always been a zero going nowhere fast
I've never had that many friends, never been to good with girls
Well I don't care about either and I hate this fucking world
[Chorus]
I will deny...I will defy...your society
I won't comply...with your lie...that shit's not for me
I don't believe in god, he makes no sense to me
I will not put my faith in something I can not see
Don't want to read your bible, your holy book is false
And I will not worship some guy nailed to a fucking cross
[Chorus]
Those people with their rules, you know I hate them all
Too many regulations, have my back against the wall
More new laws everyday, they expect me to abide
I thought that we had freedom, I guess that's a fucking lie
the dead are walking in the streets,
but they're not really dead just a zombie routine,
bloodshot eyes shit eating grin,
their patience always wearing thin,
do they know they're under control?
i don't know but i might be too,
scared i might be one of them
as i put the gun up to my head
zombified,
working nights,
eyelids heavy,
endless nights,
a few more hours,
gotta stall,
punch the time clock off the wall
another day in my life,
my life completely zombified,
responsibility closing in,
getting pale, getting thin,
i feel the control from inside,
my life completely zombified,
i can't keep up!
my visions blurred
i scream and shake,
i need another energy drink,
a step behind in my head,
i wanna die i'm seeing red,
i can't keep up with the bills to pay,
i'll save it for another day,
sleep and stress and sleep and work,
there's trouble in the big apple and no ones safe they live in fear
crime rates up in the city according to april o'neal
what we need are heroes to protect us from bad guys
sure enough we find these teens the reptilian kind
teenage mutant ninja turtles
heroes in a half shell it's simply plan to see
teenage mutant ninja turtles
shell shock to your system it will leave you digging green
shredders on the loss again he's out to get our turtle friends
he sends the foot to fight his war because he wants revenge
but they're no match for heroes with their martial arts tactics
no matter what he throws at them they always fight and win
leonardo is ready to go!
donatello is behind the wheel!
raphael wants to kick some ass!
bruce campbell is the man
with his chainsaw for a hand
he'll smash your face into stone walls
dead or not he'll watch you fall
whether he is in the woods
or medieval times to kick some ass
what ever in his bag of tricks
he'll fuck you up with his boom stick
hail to the king, hail to the king
go!...
the time is now and there's no room to slip
no room, your move, can't hold back this
our moment to shine and we won't plead the fifth
one shot, bank shot, this chance is it
can't you see we got our friends
our boards, our band, our thrash sessions
a phase you hope will leave with time
but it grows strong with days gone by
we have our goals can't stop us now
we live our life and live it proud
you hate that you can't break our bond
the reason why cause yours is gone
we walk this path and you won't see us quit
no room, your move, can't hold back this
one shot, bank shot, this chance is it
had too much to drink
think i'm going to be sick
one too many shots
toilets the next stop
the walls, the chairs, the lights are spinning
speech is slurred from the booze I'm drinking
here we go again
the party never ends
I thought she was a ten
but she's a he instead
let's get tanked!
four close friends in a cabin
in the woods on vacation
in their search they found a book
read the text and hell broke loose
there's something wrong
they're all possessed
they found a book
the evil dead are out for blood
they got the chicks now duck and run
now it's down to one man left
the dead watch out he'll have your head
emo kids from coast to coast,
take the circle just this once
put your glasses in your pocket
fuck shit up let's see you mosh!
the break up couldn't be that bad
so have some fun and don't be sad
emo helmets, denim jeans
I understand, but can't you see?
there is just as much emotion in hardcore
you're no different from me
drinks on the way to the show
he had a few before we picked him up
he's so drunk that he can't play
and "it's aiight" is all he'll say
drunk fuck, drunk fuck, drunk fuck
which one?
drunk fuck, drunk fuck, drunk fuck
of us?
drunk fuck, drunk fuck, drunk fuck
is a?
drunk fuck , drunk fuck ,drunk fuck
drunk fuck!
I look at kids I used to know
And how they are today
All fucked up on narcotics
They're lives are in decay
[Chorus]
I don't want your drug culture
That shits not for me
A fucked up mind and a wasted life
Is something I don't need
I don't want to take those pills
Or shoot into my veins
LSD and PCP
Will only kill my brain
[Chorus]
You keep on telling me
How it is completely safe
Let's see how fucking safe it is
When you're laying in a grave
Dead Alive!
rat monkey bit into her arm,
now she's dead but she's not gone
they put her in the cemetery, thought she was dead and buried
now they're dead, dead alive, you cant stop them, but u can try
now they're dead, dead alive, they'll just kill and multiply
Lionel's mom ate Bakita's dog, dead and rotting still alive
she got the nurse and then the priest,
now she needs more flesh to feast
now they're dead, dead alive, you can't stop them but u can try
now they're dead, dead alive, they'll just kill and multiply
surrounded by zombies, straps the mower on,
guts and limbs are everywhere,
blood splats on the wall, cuts them up one by one,
he wont stop until he's done
wont stop until he's done......
Dead alive!
refuse to believe that this is it, is this the reason why I exist?
stuck on repeat, wanna fall asleep
where's my house my wife and kids,
I'm not greedy I just wanna live
I'm not sorry, but I can't relate
bills to feed, mouths to pay,
jewel was right, but I have to say......
don't have the answers don't get me wrong
but you know it kills me
to see it kill us all
stuck in traffic, feel so inadequate now
build ramps, not bombs!
tear down the factories that create the weapons, replace them with halfpipes
and crazy sick sessions
build ramps, not bombs!
tired of living, in your world of shit,
I'd rather thrash, do something fun with it!
build ramps, not bombs!
doing what it takes to get thru my fucking day,
pave over and build
on top of what makes this world decay,
history left a playground of
concrete for us to shred,
so grab your fucking board and lets have a blast!
It's finally 4'oclock and I just got outta class
Gotta go and grab my deck and hit the pavement fast
Target's in my eyes
Four step and steel rail
Ollie up and grind that shit
But now I gotta bail
Bail out [x3] I've got to
1, 2, 1, 2, 3, GO!
snatched the book and got the chick
"groovy" i think, i'm the shit
but it turns out i'm not done yet
when i grabbed the book i should have said
klaatu....barada....nikto...(and)
can't these guys give me a break
dead means dead and don't hesitate
my job is done so send me back
but i'll fight your war no strings attached
I'm sick of all these kids i see,
They don't make no fucking sense to me
All they care about is bands from the U.K.
They think they're so fucking punk,
But their eyes are closed and their minds are shut
They don't know shit about the bands from the U.S.A.
[Chorus]
Whatever happened to the American bands
Some how they've been lost
If it's not from U.K. 82
These kids today don't give a fuck
Now don't get me wrong, I like a lot of British stuff
I love Alien Sex Fiend, Napalm Death, and GBH
But what about the bands like Channel 3, Zero Boys, and M.D.C.
All the great bands that came from the United States
[Chorus]
When you dance the same and dress the same
It won't be long til you are the same
You look the same and act the same
There's nothing new and you're to blame
grab the beer, grab the board, grab the crew
the three things that you must do
stuck in class, won't pass the test, if you ask who invaded france
a smart ass crack I would say george bush
but when my minds not on the test, I'm looking forward to the weekend
the facts of life can be summed up in three words
dragged to the mall by the girlfriend, she wants the diamond pear neckless
and she won't listen when you tell her no
she goes into a hissy fit and I'm just thinking "fuck that shit!"
anna nichole can find her own way home
i'm staying true to my roots
I value friends more than you
and if you think I don't give a shit
This modern generation
Can't make their own decisions
Well make them for them
It's time to assimilate
Sit in front of your TV
We'll tell you exactly what to be
You're all just puppets on a string
[Chorus]
It's time to assimilate...Be part of the heard
Be one of the sheep...Follow our every word
It's a media deception
Mental conditioning
You're tools of the system
It's time to assimilate
The thoughts that you have
Are not your own
Your life is a lie
[Chorus]
Tell me how it feels
To be just another number
A mindless consumer
It's time to assimilate
You'll do just as we tell you
Buy just what we sell you
You're one of us now
tetris, duck hunt, excite bike, I remember those long nights
8 bit armageddon
outta my way, I'm up next I gotta save the fucking princess
8 bit, Armageddon
N! E! S!
gritting teeth and my hands hurt, my eyes are strained
I remember my childhood...back in the day
Skating ramps and listening to J.F.A.
[Chorus]
7 Plys of Aggression
Teenage Rebellion
I didn't care about growing up or going to school
All I wanted to do was bomb a hill or skate a pool
[Chorus]
I look back on me and my friends and the fun we had
No cares in the world, just me and my board...I want it back
[Chorus]
Everyone around me says stop being a kid, it's time to grow up
you can't stand to see what this makes of me
it tears you up inside to see me free
I won't give in to them and their conformity
stop to raise my voice, so hear me scream
think, it's about what's inside
think, they can't justify
think, your life is your own
so think for yourself
I won't step into line, I walk my own path
blinded by their lies, but see the truth
I cut the puppet strings you can't control me
fight to make a change so listen when I say
yeah were all friends, when were in the pit
got the same goals, same ideas, we know what's right
hardcore to goth, punk, rock n roll
even emo kids, yeah they cry but, hey, it's all right
don't make me say unity, you've heard it all before
somehow the meanings lost, and left to die on the floor
we have a common enemy
I could write this ballad a million fucking times,
but when I see your face
it makes me lose my fucking mind,
to think of all the stress u bring it makes
me want to kill, you gave me all the confidence in the world,
now u make me feel like shit
I feel like I'm at war, it's the same argument,
get out of my fucking face, just let me leave this mess
my heart is in a cocktail, I'm gonna light the fuse,
get out of my fucking face
before I vomit on your shoes
I feel like I'm at war it's the same argument,
get out of my fucking face, just let me leave this mess!
now its over! This time I'm serious!
the damage in my brain, will make me go insane
I gotta find a way, to drain my minds decay
doctors say i'm crazy, nurses say it's youth
but when I get that feeling, my body needs to move
just have to
tear it up, fuck some shit up
tear it up, thrash that pit up
tear it up, fuck some shit up
we won't let you walk away until you tear it up
ten cc's of thrash, the doctor will prescribe
circle pit in pills, before you sleep at night
my fever has gone down, my headache is gone too
can you hear the noise
it travels through my spin
the impulse hit the spot
we'll give it one last shot
what cha gonna do,
when you got no where to go
thrash under the influence
fall and smack the curb
the gravel ripped my flesh
but I can't feel a thing
into your backyard, from over your fence
calling the police wouldn't make much sense
slash the coping
the water is drained, so we can skate
looks like the police showed up a little too late
slash the coping, then we split,
Seems like it was over, right after it began,
I had it fucking figured out
And now I'm pounding sand
Wheelbite! It always never seems to fail
Wheelbite! Drag my feet thru the gravel
What happened? Another dead end?
Torn between my options and the Walls are closing in
Wheelbite! It always never seems to fail
Wheelbite! Drag my feet thru the gravel
I cant seem to get out of this, make me want to kill
Stuck here in this don't move my minds like a padded cell
Cant get ahead stuck here fuck this I'm running out of time
I cant seem to get out of this and this life is mine!
This life is mine!
If this is a test, and only a test,
I know the fucking answers but I cant
Fill out the rest, and maybe,
I complain a bit too much, but I'm not
A child is born, to a religious home
And from early in his life, his thoughts are not his own
His parents, they raise him, in the way they feel is right
On bible stories, sunday school, and the words of Jesus Christ
[Chorus]
You've been weaned on lies
All you're fucking life
Never had the fucking chance
To make up your on mind
You've been weaned on lies
The've been forced into your head
Blind loyalty to God
Is how you have been bred
And as the child grows up, all he hears and sees
Are bible camp, christian rock, and Kenneth Copeland on t.v.
And his parents are proud of what they have done
They've raised an automaton and not a fucking son
[Chorus]
Now the chil has grown up and has kids of his own
And the same fucking thing happens in his home
It's just a fucking circle of lies, deceit, and fraud
now look at all that you've done wrong,
you can't take back what's said and done
you broke our bond of love and trust,
"it's all right" cause you where drunk
well your excuse is full of shit,
you backstabbing, coward, heartless bitch
to think I thought that you're the one,
and now I say your fucking done
we're fucking thru
you've crossed the line
we're fucking thru
so step aside
at first you were a nice surprise,
you weren't like all the other guys
you took me out on fancy dates,
and now that feelings turned to hate
behind my back you tried a few,
you've bit off more than you can chew
what made you think you'll get by me,
you deserve that pain now when you pee
granted, I must say my thanks
I know what you truly are
and just to prove my point
i made it threw the night and the only one left alive
i cut and chopped and fought my way cause i wanted to survive
the dead were fucking ticked and they couldn't let it go
they're up again, they want revenge, you wanna fight lets go
ok now i'm pissed, evil dead don't fuck with this
i'll rip their eyes out from their sockets and stick them in my front coat pocket
oh yeah come to think, my hmo won't cover this
you better home i fucking die cause now i'm out for every dime
it's a battle royal, no holds bar, and the blows are hitting low
we fight and fight, and fight, fight, fight, the damage starts to show
then the dead possessed my hand so i sawed the fucker off
i hope you know the games over and i'll beat you with my stub
run - i'll cut your body into bits
hide - i'll make you dead a second time
run - i'll even give you a head start
dealing with this shit
everyday i'm breaking out
i'm getting away,
grab your board,
into the van to the show
were gonna have some fun,
jumping in, playing fast,
circle pits, and were knockin' 'em back,
come on in and don't be shy,
we got your fingers in the air
and were pointing 'em high!
so....let's have some fun!
making noise!
let's have some fun!
go destroy!
pack up the gear, to the next show,
set up our equipment it's time to go,
better think fast, better fucking run,
by the time your ready we're already done,
play it sloppy, play it loud,
play it fast and fucking proud,
not gonna stop until were done,
it's "get up and go!" all over again,
so......let's have some fun!
making noise!
let's have some fun!
go destroy!
ten years later will you remember us?
we don't care we don't give a fuck,
never too old, and never too young,
that's why were here,
People have been telling me...all my life
That I'll never amount to a thing
They say I gotta wake up...and face the real world
Well I'd rather live in fantasy
[Chorus]
The life I lead is a simple one
And I don't have any regrets
As long as I can do exactly what i want
Until my death
I don't see the importance in impressing other people
In having a career or a wife
I'm perfectly content with listening to punk
And skating for the rest of my life
[Chorus]
So laugh and grow fat, and live in excess
Until the day I die
Not worried about hell or morality
home from work I'm late again my heads a fucking mess,
sometimes I find it hard to cope I gotta skate and its no joke
late night skate, thrash it up!
late night skate, drink 'em down!
grab a beer and grab your board,
I'm home from work back out the door,
I got my board, my band, my friends,
that's where its at
were true till death!
late night skate, thrash it up!
late night skate, drink em down!
Makes me so mad, all that shit you pulled
Just Another Enemy
Attempts to be a good friend gets me fucking used
Just Another Enemy
Stabbed in the back [x3]
I see what you lack
Gave you all this help when you were out and broke
Just Another Enemy
Laugh behind my back like it's a fucking joke
Just Another Enemy
Stabbed in the back [x3]
I see what you lack
I thought we were friends
Obviously not
Taken for granted
And I hope you fucking rot
Years pass by and you got nothing left
And in the end you'll deserve what you get
Just Another Enemy
Attempts to be a good friend gets me fucking used
Just Another Enemy
Fast, For, Ever!
The timings off the feedback blasts,
and I just wanna play it fast, I'm gonna
Have a good time and enjoy it while it fucking lasts cuz......
Were not here to impress,
we might need some more practice, u can criticize
Us all u want, well be at a show if u need us
Because this is what's important to me,
playing these songs and living happy,
With energy, communicate,
you don't have to listen to what I say cuz......
Were not here to impress,
we might need some more practice, you can criticize
Us all u want, well be at a show if u need us!
When were thru, its not done!
sick of this job,
sick of this place,
sick of this cycle
no, it's not ok,
look for a reason,
twist my brain,
i lose again
no, it's not ok
cuz...i give up
fucking worthless,
stressed for nothing,
going nowhere and gaining nothing,
shit piles up it's to no end,
everyday is the day
i should have stayed in bed
cuz...i give up
it's too fucking easy
to end it all,
