Plot
On the edge of the 30th anniversary of punk rock, Punk's Not Dead takes you into the sweaty underground clubs, backyard parties, recording studios, and yes, shopping malls and stadium shows where punk rock music and culture continue to thrive. Thirty years after bands like the Ramones and the Sex Pistols infamously shocked the system with their hard, fast, status-quo-killing rock, the longest-running punk band in history is drawing bigger crowds than ever, "pop-punk" bands have found success on MTV, and kids too young to drive are forming bands that carry the torch for punk's raw, immediate sound. Meanwhile, "punk" has become a marketing concept to sell everything from cars to vodka, and dyed hair and piercings mark a rite of passage for thousands of kids. Can the true, nonconformist punk spirit still exist in today's corporatized culture? Featuring interviews, performances, and behind-the-scenes journeys with the bands, labels, fans, and press who keep punk alive, Punk's Not Dead dares to juxtapose pop-punk's music and lifestyle against the roots in the 70s and 80s, resulting in unexpected revelations. A DIY search for the soul of a subculture and a celebration of all things loud, fast, and spiked, Punk's Not Dead shows punk is stronger and more relevant today than it's ever been.

Plot
After her father's ship is carried off by a sudden storm, the spunky Pippi Longstocking is stranded with her horse, Alfonso, and monkey, Mr. Nilsson, and takes up residence in the old family home, which is thought by neighborhood children to be haunted. Soon, two children, Tommy and Annika, venture into the house only to meet up with Pippi. The three soon become friends and get into various adventures together, including cleaning the floor with scrubbing shoes, dodging the "splunks", going down a river in barrels, and helping Pippi with the problem of having to go to a children's home. Older children will probably get the most out of this movie.

This song is about a girl
who has been off
she was dope sick
Dope sick girl hit and run
she took my money
87 dollars gone
now she's running
How was i i to know
That girl could take my heart

Dope sick girl a rig and a rid she got no freedom
Little deamon gonna hide inside she's gotta feed them
How was i i to know
That girl could take my heart everywhere she go
Everywhere, everywhere she go
Dope sick girl there she was at the methadone clinic
She drank a coup called it a base coat
She swore not to get back in it
How was i i to know
That girl could take my heart everywhere she go
Dope sick girl gotta rig and a ride to new york city
Gonna run away gonna watch it burn in the heart of new york city
How was i i to know
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
The connotations wearing my nerves thin
Could it be semantics generating the mess we're in?
I understand that language breeds stereotype
But what's the explanation for the malice, for the spite?
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
I wasn't brought here, I was born
Circumcised, categorized, allegiance sworn,
Does this mean I have to take such shit
For being fairskinned? No!
I ain't a part of no conspiracy,
I'm just you're average Joe.
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
Represents everything I hate,
The soap shoved in the mouth to cleanse the mind
The vast majority of sheep
A buttoned collar, starched and bleached
Constricting veins, the blood flow to the brain slows
They're so fuckin' ordinary white
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
We're better off this way
Say what you're gonna say
So go ahead and label me
An asshole cause I can
Accept responsibility, for what I've done
But not for who I am
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
Don't call me white, Don't call me white
You're making enemies
Like Don Giovanni
You're making enemies

You're making enemies
Like Don Giovanni
You're making enemies

Well the old man came back from the dead and dragged
Don Giovanni to hell

I went to Mary
Far to, too long
Jubilee was cold as fuck
Why do they make it that cold
Stand aside while she
picked me for you
for the time you gave it away
You gave it away
You gave it away
You gave it away
I seen you finish
I saw you at the start
I remember you straight from my heart
You'd ask me and I'd say "What'd you say?
"You gave me your heart and then you're taking it
You gave it away
You gave it away
You gave it away
You gave it away
You gave it away
Don't worry about me, I'm gonna make it alright
Got my enemies crossed-haired in my sight
I take a bad situation gonna make it right
In the shadows of darkness I stand in the light
You see it's our style to keep it true
I've had a bad year, a lot I've gone through
I've been knocked out, beat down, black and blue
She's not the one coming back for you
She's not the one coming back for you
If I fall back down, you're gonna help me back up again
If I fall back down, you're gonna be my friend
If I fall back down, you're gonna help me back up again
If I fall back down, you're gonna be my friend
It takes disaster to learn a lesson
You're gonna make it through the darkest night
Some people betray one and cause treason
We're gonna make everything alright
Well the worst of times, now, they don't phase me
Even if I look and act really crazy
On my way down, she betrayed me
Now my vision is no longer hazy
I'm very lucky to have my crew
They stood by me when she flew
I've been knocked out, beat down, black and blue
She's not the one coming back for you
She's not the one coming back for you
If I fall back down, you're gonna help me back up again
If I fall back down, you're gonna be my friend
(guitar and drum playing)
If I fall back down, you're gonna help me back up again
If I fall back down, you're gonna be my friend (x4)
hey wait for me(tim's voice)....
Hey ho, let the bombs blow, let the dominoes fall I aint got control
Hey ho, let the bombs blow, let the dominoes fall I aint got control

Dead men they tell and tell

People going crazy, situation code red, and the whole worlds outta control, the walls and the fences are being torn down and the bodies of the murdered gettin cold
Wild dogs goin mad smell the blood of there own kill, the weakest of the pack
Nothing is the way it seems around here
Very clear its a very deadly trap
Let the dominoes fall
I ain't got control
Let the dominoes fall
I ain't got control
no no no no no no nawh nawh nawh I aint got control
I ain't worried about a god damn thing
I hear them talking. I ain't listening
Listening
How many times did you tell me I was wrong
But I didn't listen to you and I only stayed strong
In a world where people don't hang on too long
I belong - I belong
Prove me wrong - Prove me wrong
I ain't worried about a god damn thing
I hear them talking. I ain't listening
Listening
Out come the wolves in the lunar light
Final flight you're wrong, I'm right
Talk to me straight man, but be polite
You hear my scream cause this one bites
I ain't worried about a god damn thing
I hear them talking. I ain't listening
Listening
I'm Matt Freeman I'm coming in quick
I got a 64 Merc and a clutch that won't slip
I don't give a god damn what they say
I'm born and raised in the east bay
I ain't worried about a god damn thing
I hear them talking. I ain't listening
Listening
I take chances that most won't take - Right
I get knocked down I won't break
Get it clear and make no mistake
This town's filled with rattlesnakes
Black Brown White we're all punk rock
We're the kings of the low income block
Worn out sneakers skinheads mohawk
When we all get together yeh the music won't stop
I ain't worried about a god damn thing
1951 Small town kids
got nothing to do
But dream all night
of movie stars and Cadillac cars
And beautiful girls
and big city lights
LA River dragnet coming down

Shimmy Shimmy Shake Shimmy Shake Shimmy Shimmy Shimmy
LA River dragnet coming down
Boom shacka lackalackalackalackalackalacka Boom
Shimmy Shimmy Shake Shimmy Shake Shimmy Shimmy Shimmy
From every corner

Get strung out on Smack

You wake up one day
with a monkey on your back
With foil on all your windows
and you're hiding all your tracks
The sheriff's shotgun
don't make a sound
When it's pointed at your corpse
After he shot you down

Everybody say we gotta take a chance
And tell me what the hell went wrong ?
We only listen to the words that we sing
Now a million are singing along
(Chorus)
We got it right, you got it wrong
We still around (Last one to die)
We're going up, you're going down
We still around (Last one to die)
No rules in a scandalous world
We're gonna have a path to find
We sit on the top of the world
And we're proving it every night
(Chorus)
Thru the storms and the gigs
And the good and the bad
There ain't no doubt
We knew from the very first show
What it was all about
I get violent when I'm fucked up
I get silent when I'm drugged up
Want excitement, don't get none, I go wild
I don't know, what can be done about it
If you play the game, you get nothing out of it
Find out for yourself try bein' a goody goody
You better cheat, cheat, no reason to play fair
Cheat, cheat, or don't get anywhere
Cheat, cheat, if you can't win
Nobody knows what they are doing
It's beyond your control, an' Friday night's a ruin
If you wanna survive you better learn how to lie
Don't use the rules
They're not for you, they're for the fools
And you're a fool if you don't know that
If the police come and tromp the state
And there's a strait crisis and maley
And gradually arodes world technology
Let go, let go, let go, disgruntled
And gradually arodes world technology
Let go, let go, let go, disgruntled
Reflect something of course you descend
Fighting conflict, running fugitive
And gradually arodes world technology
Let go, let go, let go, disgruntled
And gradually arodes world technology
Let go, let go, let go, disgruntled
If the police come and tromp the state
Lets go down town, tell me what you're seein'
Tell me what its like to get that old, cold feelin'
Spend all night just a lookin' at the ceilin'
Livin' in a blown out hotel buildin'
All the machines are broken down
Its a narrow path between evil and good
Watch the strong man in his decline
Another man dying is misunderstood
All i see is damnation
Whole world's gone to hell
Don't see things the way they we're
Only see things the way they are now
Realize now that its gone to far
Look into the eyes of the dead and gone now
All the machines are broken down
Its a song and dance between evil and good
In the stages of final decline
All alone, misunderstood
All i see is damnation
Where's my girl where has she gone
she once was beautiful and innocent
I can't believe in what she says I
look at her and she looked the other way
Disconnected from feeling alright
Disconnected and it ain't black and
white Disconnected there's a sword
through the dove Disconnected from
the country I love
I remember you when you we young and strong
in your summer dress and your legs so
long my memories are only for me I
prefer them to reality
Disconnected from feeling alright
Disconnected and it ain't black and
white Disconnected there's a sword
through the dove Disconnected from
the country I love
You think it was over but you better
think again neither grace nor sweetness
just malicious intent it's you and me
baby so we better watch our back cause
if we are standing together we ain't never
gonna crack and we took the greyhound
into the night with the city on the left
and the country on the right i knew when
i saw you i read it in your eyes i heard
your voiced break when you were trying
not to die
Disconnected from feeling alright
Disconnected and it ain't black and
white Disconnected there's a sword
through the dove Disconnected from
Under the red hot moon
Take the bus downtown
To the graveyard shift tonight
Under the red hot moon
Take the bus downtown
To the graveyard shift tonight
K.C.'s from Campbell California
She's got a reputation
That she didn't ask for
And she's waiting for an escape
Now that escape is called the 164
Now K.C. she won't admit
Where she is from
And K.C. she wants
To run, run, run
She's a punk rocker
She don't trust no one
On a South Bay bus all alone
Under the red hot moon
Take the bus downtown
To the graveyard shift tonight
Under the red hot moon
Take the bus downtown
To the graveyard shift tonight
K.C. was never caught up like
The rest of the rats
In a fuckin' maze
Check me out she said
I'm in a concrete jungle
I'm an individual and
You are stuck in a haze
Oh hell no
She knows where the truth is
Cause she said so
And she knows who her friends are
So fuck you! don't get no closer
It'll only make her run far away
Under the red hot moon
Take the bus downtown
To the graveyard shift tonight
Under the red hot moon
Take the bus downtown
To the graveyard shift tonight
I knew K.C.'s brother pretty well
Lets say we spent alot
Of time hangin' out
I always thought he said
That she'd be the one
To get outta here and
Make a life for herself
But when we found her
In the little league park
In the dugouts it was
Cold, damp, and dark
And no one knew why
She wouldn't wake up
I think she finally
Made it back home
Under the red hot moon
Take the bus downtown
To the graveyard shift tonight
Under the red hot moon
Take the bus downtown
To the graveyard shift tonight
[Skinhead Rob's part]
One time for your mind
Two times for your soul
Three for the graveyards
And the money I fold
Dipped out in the city
Where the sun burns slow
No hope its a pity
I can't say no
It's not my time to go
It's not my time to die
The last thing I want
Is for my mother to cry
It was love at first light
The very first night
Things have never been the same
Since I took my first flight
The way I live my life
I love, I live lavish
Lost me from the start
You lose you'll never have this
Untouched, unleashed
Back up you don't want it
Stick him for his cash
His bad its how he flaunt it
Take two and pass
I'll take two and blast
Bust a mother fucker
I'm out on the smash
Dipped out, high as fuck
I'm outta control
Lets bounce, rock, skate
Man I'm ready to roll!
Under the red hot moon
Under the red hot moon
Under the red hot moon
i could not fit in
i was the one who got caught
i was the one who got realized
i was the one who got dropped
shut out banished and locked away
the knife that did me in i was carry to this day
rejected
crossing the bridges in the land of the forgotten
rejected
distrust existed that i never saw
deep seated trust i was a victim of
rejected...
unspoken among the more priveliged or the so called
i was not good enough not good enough at all
at first out of lonliness i tried to conform
For weeks your falling, that's my darling
Hear them calling drawing you back
Sawing you in two, using me, using you
What can you do?
Watch out Mack, here's a rat
Falling off the track, fade out black
Black in feedback, hit the flashback
Don't you know we hate that?
Your a rattlesnake
And your full of shit
Your a rattlesnake
Your a rattlesnake
Fuck that shit, I don't wanna hear it
You can't bare it when we blare it
I hate your band, you understand?
You got no passion, it's all fashion
Well you come you can, come come true
Calm down, flames red or blue
You don't know, you got no clue
I see through
Your a rattlesnake
And your full of shit
I fuckin hate you
Your a rattlesnake
You talk that shit about our crew, we hate you
You said you know us, we don't know you
You Jump on the next bandwagon
What's the next fan in, I heard you braggin
But you ain't shit, you get frustrated
We never hesitated to call you a Charlatan
Cause we hate you
Your a rattlesnake
And your full of shit
I fuckin hate you
Your a rattlesnake
Your a rattlesnake
And your full of shit
and I hate you
Spread out like a million locusts covering the sun
Protagonists and infidels gonna speak out on the run
Deep rooted back and fourth
Failed from both sides
Triggered a sudden Excitement into the battle night
Reconciliation in what they already knew
Humanities lost when the power's vested in a few
Shadow of island cloud the symbol of change
Nelson spent 19 years on robin island estranged
I hear a voice in Cape Town, on Bohemian long St.
Listen closely, yeah listen closely
Reconciliation in what they already knew
El Diablo is like a soundtrack
All concurrent playback

Canterbury tales
When three men find a pot of gold
and end up killing one another in the name of greed
Some people are poison

Admissions of liabilities
I'm living in my own private cold war
In a room full of spies and I cannot find the door
Some people are poison
Under my skin like opium
And I'll stare in their eye to annoy them
Yeah there poison
The violent aspects of a tattered man
Let me respond to that if i can
Illuminated Manuscripts written by hand
Accusations have been made form the very beginning
Some people are poison
Under my skin like opium
And I'll stare in their eye to annoy them
Never fell in love
until i fell in love with you
Never know what a good time was until i had a good time with you
If you wanna get the feeling and you wanna get it right
Then the music gotta be loud
for when the music hit i feel no pain at all
Warm summer night i was drinking with my dad
He tried to give me the love that i never had
But he gave more love to his bottle of wine
So i had to go out and find love of another kind
Here it is
Here i am
Turn it up
fuckin' loud
Radio, Radio, Radio...
When i got the music
i got a place to go
Radio clash
magnificent 7
I was a choir boy
you showed me no heaven
Two tools surley lost
no remorse ignoring the cost
Here it is
Here i am
Turn it up
fuckin' loud
Radio, Radio, Radio...
When i got the music
He didn't see it comin' until it was too late
He had a bad feelin?, can't hesitate
And at the end of the day he was so tired
And he looked at the television
And whose the fuckin liar
He hates society, he thinks it's to big
It's just about killin' a man with his ring
And he knew what was happening, millions in gold
He's the first on the case and there's a murder to shoot
Bright lights, here comes the night
Interrogate the kid with the .357
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
Question the ethics, right or wrong
Secret identity started so young
He never made friends, ah don't get too close
For a man who's got nothin', he's just got the mercy
His family never knows the truth
Cause he gets caught when he tells the truth
No friends to lose or time to betray
The rendition from the papers gonna bake him again
Bright lights, here comes the night
Interrogate the kid with the .357
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
See through his eyes, his eyes alone
Intensified anger, can't be controlled
He turned his indiscretion, he brought it all down
If there was ever force of reason it could never be found.
The timing was perfect, this kid he was cleared
Computers down, he's clasped his fear
A different mind lives in a way
It's a good good thing that he got it straight
Bright lights, here comes the night
Interrogate the kid with the .357
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
I'm gonna - I'm gonna blast em
you're working like a monkey
who's been training by a sick junkie
on a mission to get money
for a new suit and tie
to wear to a reception
where they envy your deception
and give complements and praises to the ones they despite
practicing your smile in the mirror all the while
try to cultivate the style of the bastards in power
i know what they're selling
cuz their nervous twitch is telling
you're coming off smelling like the pig of the hour
i got a lot of people telling me i'm outta my mind
and i don't know why
my brain was bleeding and my fingers were proceding
through a notebook i was keeping since the dawning of time
senses were coroaded
you know that i was loaded
you were dealing i was reeling
from the feeling and the madness was consealing
it's a siren song
people that i trusted would surley have me busted
if they ever had a clue what was really going on
i got a lot of people telling me i'm out of my mind
California sun has sunk
Behind the Anaheim Hills, here comes the night
I was high on junk
And the warm winds of Santa Anna feel all right
Will every crimmin' hood make a bargain with the world
Seats are successive when you're shot to the curb
I spend my day in blindness, at night I get my vision
Dodgy, cause there are no one indecision
Cause it's wild, When it's Wild wild wild wild
(California sun has sunk...)
I get destructive outside obedience
I am no longer respected in this new transition
I put into effect, my long time standard
Disastrous living, disastrous living!
(Cause it's wild...)
(California sun has sunk...)
(Cause it's wild...)
(California sun has sunk...)
(California sun has sunk...)
All right!
I've got another confession to make!
I'm your fool...
Everyone's got their chains to break!
Holding you...
Were you born to resist, or be abused
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Are you gone and on to someone new
I needed somewhere to hang my head
Without your noose..
You gave me something that I didn't have
But had no use...
I was too weak to give in, too strong to lose
My heart is under arrest again
But I break loose
My head is giving me life or death
But I can't choose
I swear I'll never give in
and I refuse.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Has someone taken your faith - it's real
The pain you feel
Your trust - you must confess
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
(Ahhhhhhhh!!!)
(ohhhhhhhh oh oh... Ohhhhh oh oh!
ohhhhhhhh oh oh... OHHHHHHH!!!)
Has someone taken you faith - it's real!
The pain you feel!
The Life! The Love! You die to heal
The hope, that stops, the broken hearts!
Your trust, you must confess!
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
I've got another confession my friend
I'm no fool
Im getting tired of startin' again
somewhere new
Wouldn't wanna resist, or be abused...
I swear I'll never give in
and I refuse...
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you.
Has someone taken you faith - it's real!
The pain you feel! Your trust, You must confess
Is someone getting
the best, the best, the best, the best of you
[Originally by Sham 69]
For once in my life I've got something to say
I wanna say it now cause now is today
A love has been given to grab and enjoy
So let's all grab and let's all enjoy
If the kids are united they will never be divided
If the kids are united they will never be divided
Just take a look around you
What do you see ?
Kids with feelings like you and me
You understand him, he'll understand you
For you are him, and he is you
If the kids are united they will never be divided
If the kids are united they will never be divided
I don't want to be rejected
I don't want to be denied
Then its not my misfortune
That I've opened up your eyes
Freedom is given
Speak how you feel
I have no freedom
How do you feel
They can lie to my face
But not to my heart
If we all stand together
It will just be the start
If the kids are united then we'll never be divided
If the kids are united then we'll never be divided
A new age of reason
Brain treason to trick the mind
What good is searching
If nothing's there to find
We arrive at this place
Of no return my brothers
Only to discover that our minds have led us away
So far from the painful truth
Of who we are
What's right is wrong
What's come has gone
What's clear and pure is not so sure
It came to me
All promises become a lie
All that's benign corrupts in time
The fallacy
Of epiphany
Come forth bear witness
See the profit from your loss
Beg for forgiveness
Only after you tally the cost
We arrive at this place
Of no return my sisters
Only to discover that our values ran us aground
On the shoal in the sea of what
We could be
What's right is wrong
What's come has gone
What's clear and pure is not so sure
It came to me
All promises become a lie
All that's benign corrupts in time
The fallacy
Of epiphany
If it's real for me do I have to prove it to you
Why do revelations fade to cold blue untruths
It's oh so relative
Subservient in total to one's perspective
What's right is wrong
What's come has gone
What's clear and pure is not so sure
It came to me
All promises become a lie
All that's benign corrupts in time
The fallacy
Of epiphany
Yeah! Are you ready for this? I told you he was coming. GO!
These bands call anywhere living in '66
I made so many mistakes when I look back, it makes me sick
Those days are dead and gone and they ain't ever coming back
Those days are dead and gone and they ain't ever coming back
I realize that in life it ain't free
I got so many troubles, it brings me to my knees
Those days are dead and gone and they ain't ever coming back
Those days are dead and gone and they ain't ever coming back
He was an artist and a writer
and a poet and a friend
in a man's life he will take a fall
but how low he goes it just depends
he's shooting dope in the men's room
at the station daly city train
have you ever seen an angel well I know I have
they'll stay here for a while and then they'll fly away
Jackyl had a beer in his hand last time I seen him
when he rolled the dice he never thought twice
never thought twice about being
some grown up and some grow old
but what about the kid who never learned the rules
spent all these years on this earth
when you look back it's just a flicker of time
Jackyl was one of the one's that he was one
of the one's that was already saved
through all the evil and wreckage
he maintained a sense of himself
some men are in prison even though they walk the streets at night

Tim talking: Listen up all you skaghead, sewer rats, gangsters,
Villains and whores, the dark figures from the shadows,
Crept up from behind, where they brandished a gun,
Pointed directly at his face,
And they shuddered at the sight when the words were spoken,
disfigured and oblique
From the appetite that i seek
I'm a hungry cannibal
I'm a rabid animal
My remains are begin scattered
I've been bludgeoned I'm in pain
Stomach pains are coming and they strike with demon speed
Dead bodies everywhere
Piles of blood and entrails and hair
I'm bleeding from the inside from the Armageddon outside
Recurring rotting dreams
>From this place the demons speak
My skin exfoliates
My patience terminates
unfold to unholy urges unearthed with urgency
The holocaust was nothing compared to my lividly
Dead bodies everywhere
Piles of blood and entrails and hair
I'm bleeding from the inside from the Armageddon outside
In this oblong box
That's eating you
There's nothing you can do!!!
Dead bodies everywhere
Piles of blood and entrails and hair
I'm bleeding from the inside from the Armageddon outside
Dead bodies!
Dead bodies!
i didn't know what time it was until the sun went down
Detroit mild on the bus downtown

but tonight i have a girl next to me in this cold world
she brings me heat
i got a good feeling in a bad city tonight

detained in illegal custody spent the night in jail
with a drunken priest and a hooker $500 bail

Yeah we're on/rhymmes ? imagine that
All punk rock must move inside, all ? must move inside.
Come out to Brooklyn Town and Coyote Studios ?
London you're gonna find them
New York, L.A., back to Kingston
All I see is youth fighting
All I see is youth fighting
Well, in sympathy, there's some
Integrity, but in
Humility I've come to find a whole lot more
I'm not one to judge, nor I
Carry a grudge, but I
Refuse to budge my determinating vow

Rudeboy set down your gun
L.A., Kingston, New York and London
Move, nobody fight, form together as one
This gun pressure soon be over and done
? the road controlled by Satan
Fight back from that with love vibration
Pull out, division, racism, and schism
We gonna make 'em flee, run
Easy, you know it ain't easy
Got to make a decision
Got to learn to say no, no, no...
I burn from inside all the walls
A dead man can't hear all the calls
Who lives like a sheep in the city concrete
Never runs deep and dies from the heat
Coppers and hoods, dead man's stood
It ain't no good when you're misunderstood
When you're rotting in jail, wish you would be
Out on the street like Robin Hood
All those who fall, those who try
Let them go, oh victimize
You see you ain't gonna take their power, demise
Not in your lifetime see more hypnotized, come again
London you're gonna find them (London town)
New York, L.A., back to Kingston (waterhouse)
All I see is youth fighting (youth them all they fight)

It's over before it starts
Oh don't you know
So on your marks and stand by
Ready, go
From London to New York, Montreal to Tokyo
I see visions of her everywhere I go
What have I become?
Now that I'm all alone
I'm just looking for a way to break through these walls and
I'm just looking for a place that I can call my home and
Is anybody out there got a soul?
'Cuz I'm just looking for a girl
The girl with a heart of gold
She always ? once ? count with her champagne case
She goes straight down the rathole with her
Total recklessness and
Tomorrow will come on through
And I got nothing but a barely mentioned
Nothing but a sillouette girl
Met her in darkness
I say
What have I become?
Now that I'm all alone
I'm just looking for a way to break through these walls and
I'm just looking for a place that I can call my home and
Is anybody out there got a soul?
'Cuz I'm just looking for a girl
The girl with a heart of gold
I said I'm just looking for a girl
The girl with a heart of gold
Yeah I'm in the corner I start over
I start the whole slate clean
All the pain and heartache in all my years
I was always to blame
And I dream of this girl
Yeah an angelical ghost
I met her in my neighborhood
I'm a downtown member ?
Don't let me be misunderstood
Oh, I'm a downtown member ?
Don't let me be misunderstood
Heart of gold!!!
I'm just looking for a way to break through these walls and
I'm just looking for a place that I can call my home and
Is anybody out there got a soul
'Cuz I'm just looking for a girl
The girl with a heart of gold
I said I'm just looking for a girl
A fire from the sky rains brimstone from above (no god no truce)
A whole world implosion got too close to the sun (no god no truce)
Veins of power struggle explode into a bloody mess (no god no truce)
Rupturing the nation's core, bursting from the stress (no god no truce)
The atheists get in line await the coming destruction (no god no truce)
Religious dogma corrupted and curruptor (no god no truce)
With a man made of sin leads a full scale invasion (no god no truce)
Drains the life from the skins abrasion (no god no truce)
No restoring order in a full scale attack (no god no truce)
There's no fucking vision, There's no voice it's all black (no god no truce)
And then you break down with a villainous call (no god no truce)
Within the same school. The idea was that we'd later combine both styles,
unify the techniques.
But still, we were too young.
Too full of ignorant pride in our own succulent sorrow.
Oh no!!!
Some people live illegal
What you got you can't keep here
Oh no!!!
Some people live illegal
All their lives are led in evil (? Oh, they rise a lot of evil ?)
Open the jails and set the men free
Well the devils and witches are looming on me
And the fighting and the robbing induce slavery
A decision of descention into insanity
Oh no!!!

Some people live illegal
All their lives are led in evil (? Oh, they rise a lot of evil ?)
(To do the job, you've got to prepare yourself to die.. die... die...)
Put 'em up, put 'em in, run 'em out, run quicker
Quicker than any motherfucker that I know
Rack 'em up and stomp 'em wherever he'll go
Rancid pack, I'm a blast it
Blasted lyrics of elastic
With a 12 gauge double barrel lyric gun
(Go... go ... go)
Proclamation to the nihilist
Down to the propagandist
Take me off of that fucking list
Open the jails and set the men free
Well the devils and witches are looming on me
And the fighting and the robbing induce slavery
A decision of dissension into insanity
Oh no!!!

Rock gets hot, now she can't stop
She's a lot, a lot like a robot
And she can't be bought, and her nerves are shot
And she starts to rot, from the inside out
She said I don't need you to save me, but there's people here trying to blame me
And there's no jobs that will pay me, enough to feed my family
And I got my back up against the wall
And I got my back up against the wall
And no one hears her call
Cause there's no one there at all
And I got my back up against the wall
Law crack re-run, fools are chippin
Promises are broken, yeh, jobs are leavin
And the sky is darkening in the land of stepping
But the bus is staying and I won't be regretting
And there's no more jobs here, no more love here
No more room here for me, and there's no more jobs here
Only misery here, for me and my family
And I got my back up against the wall
And I got my back up against the wall
And no one hears her call
Cause there's no one there at all
And I got my back up against the wall
Now where have all the good times gone
(ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT!)
But something here is going wrong
(ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT)
Why even bother, when you getting clobbered
Nowhere is safe and sound, off the sweat they will profit
Your getting robbed and their gunning you down to the ground
Oh we all got big dreams now, the new factory just shut down
And there's not enough to go around, cause their gunning you down to the ground
And I got my back up against the wall
And I got my back up against the wall
And no one hears her call
Cause there's no one there at all
Business man come shake my hand
Show me numbers that i understand
Your my candle i'm burning your wick
Two sides comin' in quick
Say goodbye when you see the sign
Now I'm crucified!
Crucifiy me
the ground is fertile and the grass is green
so many things to be seen
so many bands to be heard
I figured out the problem yea the problem is you
you didn't see us comin' now there's nothin' you can do
times are gonna change, change or step aside
it's my point of view that took you by surprise
the sun's comin up yea the new dawn arrives
new generation standing stand with anger in their eyes
no love in the city 'cause there's no connection
been stricken with disease a racial infection
I'm a rattering ram comin' through to you
in every alleyway on every avenue
actions could erase all the fear that we suffer
people segregated no one understands each other
he's a different color but we're the same kid
I will treat him like my brother he will treat me like his
well an eye for an eye yea a tooth for a tooth
brother against brother should be singin' with the group
the inner cities burnin' yea it's screamin' black and blue
the power and the passion of a million youth
I figured out the problem yea the problem is you
you din't see us comin' now there's nothin' you can do
he's a different color but we're the same kid
I will treat him like my brother he will treat me like his
all the blood that spills of all the guts that fly
the media paints a picture that stands
pits dogs against cats now who is responsible
the power in the issue
I saw an old man on the street
he was in a dumpster lookin' for somethin' to eat
he moved so slow like a dyin' dream
like a machinist who got caught in the machine
I saw this lady and she was cryin'
she said it's hard when someone you love is dyin'
I saw this kid who was about 5 years old
he was in the park all alone he was cold
there's something coming around
as wicked as it may seem
as wicked as anything could be
I know this girl she's barely alive
she's all haggard she's only twenty-five
she said she never had a friend before
I said "hey girl I'll be your friend but who's keepin' score"
I sawthis other little girl on the phone
her mother comforts her from far from home
the little girl was very hesitant
her best friend lie dead on the pavement
I always end up back on the hill
lookin' down at the landfill
I always go there when I can
War between races
War between lies
War between something that was deep inside
You was wrong all along
I was right you lied
U to the n to the ity
Straight down too late can it kick the feeling
Looking from the bottom i can't see the ceiling
Shots rang out in the oakland winter
Can't stand alone you can?t stand together
as one, as one, as one
No matter what they do they'll try to divide you
fear you up what's inside you way down down down
The scale hook the anchor to the gates of hell
Once you realize that it was so simple
What you given you can't take with you
I asked somebody if if they had the same vision
Yeah?
They were sure I was guilty, but I committed no crime
They said: confessions bring lenience, so that put me on the line
So I, protest the massacres at the Tiannamen Square
My friends say yo, stay away man, you better not go fucking back there
Oh.
Watch this
One night I might write about my opinions about the state
And the freedom of expression they would never tolerate
And the, military secrets that I never did steal
I didn€™t start no violence, no, and there was nobody that I killed
No.
So I had a clear account of all abusers of power
And the memories of homeland all gone sour
And I only got one weapon, it€™s so plain for me to see
My only weapon I call, poetry
And I don€™t even know why
The truth seems like a lie
In my cell there is no sky
When I was arrested in Shanghai
Now, in a world of privilege I was not born
But, the devotion of freedom and liberty I was sworn
So, every emotion is studied, watched their control
Who gets paid, who gets disciplined, who gets born
So, transmitting beams my coordinates, anywhere on Earth
And, as radio waves, surveillance, satellite bursts
Open up your skull and let some knowledge come in
Ya, crack open the cranium and let awareness begin
Oh.
And I don€™t even know why
The truth seems like a lie
In my cell there is no sky
When I was arrested in Shanghai
When I was arrested in Shanghai
When I was arrested in Shanghai
Woo!

Your selling sexism your selling racism
your selling anything you get your fucking hands on
An understanding, you got a plan in a
Presentation to advertisers who demand it
When you plan that
Your antennas are pointed in the right direction
You make a deal in any situation
So with no evacuation
Let California fall into the fucking ocean
Oh they talk to ya, Oh your the town man
High profile Hollywood scum-bag
It's a done deal, signed and sealed
Deal makers making it all happen
When you plan that
Your antennas are pointed in the right direction
You make a dead in any situation
So with no evacuation
Let California fall into the fucking ocean
Let California fall into the fucking ocean!
Let California fall into the fucking ocean!
in the dark with the okland skyline
as i cross the city i avoid the landlines
all i wanna do is make it through without dying
all i wanna do is keep on trying
another night
in the streets for me
another night
no sanctuary
another night
come and watch me bleed
another night
in the streets for me
she wouldn't move until the coast was clear
she always knew the final battle was near
if you have a bag of dope she give it up for free
if you got a song of hope it will help her see
another night
in the streets for me
another night
no sanctuary
another night
come and watch me bleed
another night
Pick me back up just to throw me back down
apoogies too like when you're up against the wall
compassion heals while duplicity kills
you say I'm different the only thing different is
the way I feel about you
Na na na na na na na na na na
You moved up the ladder at a very rapid speed
we moved methodically
and calmly when you got to the top you see enemies
if I knew back then what I know that
it would all turn out like this
I'd sit back and I'd watch you squirm
cause you say I'm different
the only thing different is
Little Sammy was a punk rocker
you know his mother never understand him
went to his room and smashed his Billy Bragg record
didn't want him to hear that communist lecture
Little Sammy was a punk rocker
you know his mother tried to take him to war
Sammy now the war is over now we're at the wars end
Little Sammy was a punk rocker
1987 at a 7-11
police out looking for problems
but i'm no average hoodlum
still running from the pigs
so it seems to me this is not
the land of love and liberty
it's more like a waiting room in hell
drink a qwart and watch me dwell
i got it right out in the trenches tonight
glass towers rise above the filth and the pain
im a moral degenerate feel my pain

I didn't trust him, 'cause he smiled at me first
Just like the wolf before he bites me
And I didn't go there I swear that it was cursed
Just as if it was to despite me
I saw some better days, from ? to hunter place
A portrait of a sum of the last couple years
See I lost an image, an image of chaos
Yeah all I'd rather notice, isolation in place
Of all the kids been losing everything, every single day
And all this deadly drama you know I see myself fall
? A lost canyon
Consuming all
It's just you
It's just you
Consuming all
I didn't trust him, cause he smiled at me first
Just like the wolf before he bites me
And I didn't go there I swear that it was cursed
Just as if it was to despite me
So on the antisocial side
You know I find myself a job
? incredible artist
? a delicate balance
I never really thought I could make it all happen
The anarchist kid gives a fuck about you
I stood up every single time I fell
It's just you
It's just you
Consuming her
I didn't trust him, cause he smiled at me first
Just like the wolf before he bites me
And I didn't go there I swear that it was cursed
Just as if it was to despite them

Just like the wolf before he bites me
And I didn't go there I swear that it was cursed
Just as if it was to despite me
kick the kick drum increase the weight of the sound

Hidden realm
Ahh! everybody knows, it's fucking wild and there's no fronting about it
It's not the style, nor a trial
It's the best of love and hate
Come on everybody, lets get together
I appall the backdrop of hate
Well there's no more food on the table
What was strong, no longer able
And an open mind, no longer stable
And it spin like a DJ's turntable
A million eyeballs and a blink and a smile
With no dimensions in sight
Well given an inch, a billion colors
The entire world's contrast light
Oh it ain't right, another fight
Well all of it's so very clear
With my passion on a stud, I walked through
I walked through the vicious ones
I really don't care
Well there's no more food on the table
What was strong, no longer able
And an open mind, no longer stable
And it spin like a DJ's turntable
My western mind has a hard time (hard time)
Getting across this trust
Passive resistance, Your assistance (You're the one smoking dust)
It ain't a style, nor a trial, it's the best of love and hate (love and hate)
Come on everybody lets get together, I appall the backdrop of hate
Well there's no more food on the table
I once/What was strong, no longer able
And an open mind, no longer stable
And it spin like a DJ's turntable
Well ya spin like a DJ's turntable
Well ya spin like a DJ's turntable
If you lose me, you lose a good thing, that's one thing
I know for sure.
If you lose me, girl, you lose a good thing, that's one
thing I know for sure.
When you were sick, girl, I held your hand,
When you were troubled I tried to understand,
Staying with you I did anything I can,
'Cause losing you was not part of the plan.
Melbourne is a tropical London
I met a girl in a tropical London
Abandoned in a tropical London
Oh no, oh no,
If you lose me, you lose a good thing, that's one thing
I know for sure.
If you lose me, girl, you lose a good thing, that's one
thing I know for sure.
A souvenir reminds me of you,
Every day I catch a glimpse of us two,
I'm the one going to the rescue,
That's why I'm confused you withdrew.
Melbourne is a tropical London
I met a girl in a tropical London
Abandoned in a tropical London
Oh no, oh no,

thing I know for sure.
Medication, led to an
Altercation, it's a
Hazardness in the
Valley of deception, and I
Walk alone,
But it was not my intention,
Not my invention,
And now my heart's been ripped wide open!
If you lose me, you lose a good thing, that's one thing
I know for sure.
If you lose me, girl, you lose a good thing, that's one
thing I know for sure.

I'm ashamed now to say I ever knew you
See the Great Athenians, man they're not even from Athens
And the kid from Avenue A, man he ain't even from Manhattan
And nothing is what it seems so I'll just stand here laughing
And I'm gonna keep on goin' though, I can't get distracted
And I know I'm indestructible
And I know I'm indestructible tonight
Playback, rock and roll come and save me

And I'll give back everything that you gave me
And I know that no one can ever ever contrain me
And I won't get bogged down like some American consumer, nah
I'm dancing now to a whole different drummer
And I'll keep listening to the great Joe Strummer
The phenomena you are about to witness
could well revolutionize your way of thinking
We are presenting startling facts and evidence
that take up where explanations leave off
Some of these revelations will very well go against things you have been taught
And perhaps believed all your life

For 24 hours on the Ivory Coast,
They relieved soldiers from their post,
And they gave champagne, for a toast,
To pay dividends to the country's host.
They say, Tonight, you can leave your home,
But tomorrow, it's gonna be the way of the gun,
And the curfew, won't allow you to roam, roam, roam,
And the bullets will let you know, when the bad dog comes 'round your door....
Who is the killer
(Wooooh ohhh oh!)
Who is the killer
(Wooooh ohhh oh!)
Stone-cold killer,
(Woooooh ohhh oh!)
Food for the trigger,
(Wohhhh ohh ohh!)
I'll shoot ya down, right on sight,
If you're out in the wrong time of night,
In a civil war, there's no civil rights,
In the day of the dead, run for your life.
They say, tonight, you can leave your home,
And tomorrow, will be the way of the gun,
And the curfew, won't allow you to you roam, roam, roam,
And the bullets will let you know, when the bad dog comes 'round your door....
Who is the killer
(Wooooh ohhh oh!)
Who is the killer
(Wooooh ohhh oh!)
Stone-cold killer,
(Woooooh ohhh oh!)
Food for the trigger,
(Wohhhh ohh ohh!)
And the trenches are dug,
And the bones they do shiver,
The tastes of war, so cold and bitter,
And the human race is the face of the killer,
And the cost of life is rarely considered.
They say, tonight, you can leave your home,
But tomorrow, but tomorrow, it's gonna be the way of the gun,
And the curfew, won't allow you to roam, roam, roam,
And the bullets will let you know, when the bad dog comes 'round your door....
Who is the killer?

(Wooooh ohhh oh!)
Stone-cold killer,
(Woooooh ohhh oh!)

I can tell you how it'll go down
But only you can tell me how it'll end
All systems just stop right here
Why do we always pretend?
So many things can be a mystery
But all we're seeking is freedom
You realize that your reality
Is gonna be there to greet 'em
It's all right
It's quite all right me
Let the rich man confess like that
Man it's hard to stop
Better, get better
Don't let the deep end drop
And if you drop my name in regard to danger
I'm urgent only to heat
'Cause they say live in a world
Gonna set me free
It's all right
It's quite all right with me
The common man doesn't suffer pain like this

And out come the wolves
their plans trampling the snow the asphalt
I stand on my head and watch it all go away
bootin' up, shootin' up bring on the brightness
see the son of god is comin' up and there's a likeness
internalize the lunacy the misery is showin' when
Reconcile to the relief

Lady Liberty, come down and bleed to me
I want nothing to do with your crazy world
Broken promises, those poor noises
Are bringin' it by the time for all the famine and the law
From the contras to the upstarts to shouted Sandanistas
Lady Liberty, come down and bleed to me
You had me to believe that the streets are paved in gold
Storming ? west, then the cold hits
Then I come to find that the streets aren't paved at all
From the contras to the upstarts to shouted Sandanistas
From the contras to the upstarts to shouted Sandanistas
From the Kremlin to Afeghanistan to the forgotten ones
She offers it confusion to distraught refugees
In the fields of poison ivy, through the famine and disease
You bled my loyalty
Lady Liberty, come down and bleed to me
You had me to believe that the streets are paved in gold
All you tell me not to worry
About the short comings of lives and the high cost of living
From the contras to the upstarts to shouted Sandanistas
From the contras to the upstarts to shouted Sandanistas
Drop bombs, You're gonna be warned
You're gonna be scorned, You're gonna be torn
There's a storm hittin' your home, not a false alarm but a real one
Can't trick it, let's wake up, can't stick it, pick it lines striking
If you like it, don't fight it, just hold it, then want it
Head straight to the killing zone, Now the war's on
Head straight to the killing zone, now the war's on, holes in the ozone, we're all gone
Head straight to the killing zone, Now the war's on
Head straight to the killing zone, now the war's on, holes in the ozone, we're all gone
All the nights of constant run, if you're the one, well now you're bombed
Sail on, Mr. Dumb One, you got a shot gun, hit the marksmen
Complex thoughts here, he don't live here, keep the war there, just to control there
Without a care here, you should just see there
Start a war there, cross the boarders
Head straight to the killing zone, Now the war's on

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
No one is safe here, we're all in danger
Through the corridor, I see a stranger
Robbin' and ransacking, I see him walking
Lock your doors now, I hear him knocking
Up to no good, up to no good
Like a spark on a wire or a splinter in wood
Best intentions get misunderstood
But that motherfucker is up to no good [x6]
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Quick like a snake, he's good at stealing
He'll even steal the plaster off the ceiling
Cloaked in darkness, I see him standing
Making moves in the night, he's a ghost man
Up to no good, up to no good
Like a spark on a wire or a splinter in wood
Best intentions get misunderstood
But that motherfucker is up to no good [x6]
Criminals, I understand them
Watch your back 'cause we'll come at random
Born to lose and you end up in the system
He's our friend, now we're gonna miss him
Up to no good, up to no good
Like a spark on a wire or a splinter in wood
Best intentions get misunderstood
But that motherfucker is up to no good [x8]
Yeaaaaaaaah !!!
There's something in the street tonight
Don't know what it is, but it won't keep quiet
Breaking through your masses on your radio brodcaster
There's something in the air tonight
And it's turning in to a full fledge riot
Seen a boy's last dance, someone tried to buy him the truth
Yeah!!!
Oh oh oh oh oh nine lives
I'm gonna come right back for you
Oh oh oh oh oh nine lives
I'm gonna come right back for you
There's something in the world today
Don't know what it is but it sure smells rotten
Babylon's burning and the fire seems waterproof
There's someone in your home tonight
You think you know who they are
But something just ain't so right
I look at them a way but they don't feel the same about me
Oh oh oh oh oh nine lives
I'm gonna come right back for you
Oh oh oh oh oh nine lives
I'm gonna come right back for you
And I run and run
And I hide and I hide
And I knew that I knew that I tried and tried

Small sacrifices or otherwise few
Unity for the sake of the many forms
Oh they use imagination only few can go
Touch of madness only few ever know
Well you can go on your way
Or you can stagger through hell
You can lie on your back
Or you can stand up tall
In a state of confusion
Got nothing to do
I was connected respected
Watching you make it through
And all this rhetoric
They tell me to sing along
They said that you were dying
But I know that they were wrong
Second generation melting pot
You're ripped apart but you're never done
There she goes
It's all right
Nothing to do
Waste your time
And all this rhetoric
They tell me to sing along
They said that you were dying
But I know that they were wrong
Well you can go on your way
Or you can stagger through hell
Or you can lie on your back
Or you can stand up tall
State of confusion
You got nothing to do
Connected respected
I'll watch you make it through
And all this rhetoric
They tell me to sing along
They said that you were dying
Well, it was punk-fifteen in the morning
And it was time to stand my ground
And as the gawks and stares bombarded me
You know, I didn't even hear a sound
No one gave a damn
If I was there or away
If I died and went to hell,
They'd throw a party on my grave
And they'd all say
"this kid is just a fool, he'll never be cool
They might as well just ship him off
to some other school"
Plain destitute
Just a little too guilty, just a little too soon
That day was just like any other day
No work, and no pay
I knew that paradise was some other place
And I'd get there another day
I will find it before I expire
'Cuz I've got the desire
Well, it was punk-fifteen in the evening
And it was time to set the town on fire
I saw my boots and my hair
As reflected in the mirror
Reveal a streetkid named desire
I didn't give a damn
Because I was just dying to be
And as the Hollywood street scene
Left its mark on me
I changed from a boy into a man
I said "never again!"
I stuck out my chin when I should have ran
Shit in the fan
I was driven so hard
By the sound of my heart
But that day was just like any other day
No work, and no pay
I knew that paradise was some other place
And I'd get there another day
I will find it before I expire
'Cuz I've got the desire
When the walls surround
In deeper shades of blue
And there's no voice of reason inside you
And you search for meaning
On an empty shelf
Then you're always dreaming
Of somewhere else
Today is just like any other day
No fear, no restraint
I know that paradise is some other place
And I will get there another day
You can come with me,
No conditions or fares
Somehow, somewhere,
I will find it before I expire,
Realize you're dehumanized
You critisize your existance
It's your demise when no sun arise
When you're paralized by your lack of resistance
She know she is
She knows she's going
Down below where the fire's glowing
Tenderloin
The tricks she gets them she's not a victim
She makes a list of them and reads them all alone
For money she's walking down on larkin'
Hey little sister do you know what time it was
when you finally seen all your broken dreams
come crashing down your door
they demand an answer and they demand it quick
or the questions fade and the wasted days
come crawling back for more
do you know where the power lies? and who pulls the strings
do you know where the power lies it starts and ends with you
the face of isolation
well that's one you recognize
well you can't get straight
it's a lonely place and
it's one you do despise
boredom is for sale now
and helplessness you feel
it's a wounded dove and the hawks are above
blood splattered on a reel to reel
I was almost over my world was almost gone
in a sudden rush I could almost touch the
things that I'd done wrong
my jungle's made of concrete
through silence I could feel
my aim is true I will walk on through
Jimmy and johnny two friends of mine
skinheads what they clamed
Outside simalarities but they don't feel the same
Johnny thinks jimmy is a mod
and jimmy thinks johnny's a punk
Jimmy listens to ska
and johnny likes last resort
Jimmy and johnny in the trenches

Skinheads tats and a fred perry
There's a was in the cemetary

What the fuck were they thinking
Jimmy and johnny tell me what you're seeing
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Jimmy had his two tone girl on the back of his scooter that night
Johnny had a jackes up chevy that could blow you right off the line
Skinheads tats and a fred perry
There's a was in the cemetary
Start to fight stop drinking
What the fuck were they thinking
Jimmy and johnny tell me what you're seeing
climb in
climb in
climb inside me.. pain
another night of drinkin'
another night of beeing
out of my head and i don't know
where i was last night
drinkin' on a empty stomach
or an empty mind
it makes no difference when i'm way out of line
things i can't remember comes back to haunt me
a lot of people out there who seem to want me
climb in the bottle and never come out
i may know nothing but i'm good at something
i will drink till the sun comes up
no more one of these days gonna come out of my haze
She's got a ticket and she's waiting at the station
She's got to get away as far as she can
Her problems will arise as sure as the sun shine
She's got to get used to living on the lam
Now marry's out the door with a loaded 44 in her hand
Shooting down the law that shot down her dear departed man
When i last saw her she was looking trouble
She said this is the 90's i'm gonna be alright
She took the greyhound into salinas
I got a letter that she dropped out of sight
Now marry's out the door with a loaded 44 in her hand
Shooting down the law that shot down her dear departed man
Shrouded in anger encompassed by pain
He was your best friend and you will never ever ever see him again
Now marry's out the door with a loaded 44 in her hand
Hold your head up high,
'cause tomorrow you may die,
'cause no one's safe around here,
No one's safe around here.
Stand your ground,
Til you're the last one in town.
Someone that you trust turned out to be a tricker,
Smoking cigarettes, getting stoned on liquor,
Getting really dizzy, only getting sicker,
Small problems now only seem bigger.
America's a safe place,
If you're gonna leave it,
And the rhetoric is there,
If you're gonna read it,
And the hollow masses,
The machines defeated,
And the rich look down to arrive on the bleeding.
Hold your head up high,
'cause tomorrow you may die,
'cause no one's safe around here,
No one's safe around here.
Stand your ground,
Til you're the last one in town.
Hardly enough,
It gets tough when you're running,
So you bust out the homeless,
When they start coming,
In LA, Broadway, it's wicked when they're watching,
And your backup and your backup and your backup ain't working.
There's no food, so you're spurred into action,
Set up and go to no satisfaction,
Ice and snow is the city passion,
When you walk in the shadows, girl, there's no protection.
Hold your head up high,
'cause tomorrow you may die,
'cause there's no one safe around here,
No one's safe around here.
Stand your ground,
Til you're the last one in town.
[SR talking:]
OK, well,
This is the city of Los Angeles,
And it never sleeps,
It may look like it,
But it doesn't.
It lives and breathes nocturnally,
So when you've got no place to sleep at night,
And you're all huddled up,
And you're cold,
Well, this song goes out to the city's forgotten.
Hey, Tim, take us on home....
Underlying reason, well she can't keep it going,
In the middle of the night,
they found her frozen,
And the Wal-Mart sign,
Keeps on glowing,
And the winds of change keep on blowing.
Hold your head up high,
'cause tomorrow you may die,
'cause no one's safe around here,
No one's safe around here.
Stand your ground,
Another lesson has been learned,
In this days' modern times,
Strangers in the mist appear,
Now there's war, all the time,
Systematically go and destroy,
Commit another atrocity,
Aggressors are in their places,
Man-made catastrophe.
I'm not looking for a fight now,
And I don't care who's wrong or right now,
So release the dove into flight now,
So we can start right now,
We can start right now.
A small key's gonna open the door,
Across the border to a new land,
And in the new land a sand storm roars,
Under spell and the ghost of a man,
A pack of men, they're yours to stay,
Their prayers fall upon deaf ears,
Machiavelli owns a machine gun now,
And I see it in the mask and a puppeteer.
I'm not looking for a fight now,
And I don't care who's wrong or right now,
So release the dove into flight now,
So we can start right now,
We can start right now.
Humanity has no blame in this case, this big game of chess for us all,
Hostility explodes in the mess, now your arm got blood all over the wall,
And clarity turns to dark, blindfolding prisoners of war,
And solidarity, on the razor's edge, boy, what? You're a big puncher now, right?
Yeah?... Ha!... Nah... I don't fucking think so!
Ha ha ha!
I'm not looking for a fight now,
And I don't care who's wrong or right now,
So release the dove into flight now,
So we can start right now,
When I look 'round, I only see outta one eye
As the smoke surrounds my head, the sauna
I hear the voices but I can't make out their words
Saying things, saying things that
I got something sticking in my eye
Got something sticking in my eye
Got something sticking in my eye
I feel unusual from thinking
About the underground decay, God help me
Kill beneath the camera, watch the world
Begin to cry, it's not from pity, it comes from
What's been sticking in my eye
Got something sticking in my eye
Woooooooooh
Ghost band, ghost band,
There's a ghost band, girl, playing our songs now,
Ghost band, ghost band,
There's a ghost band, girl, playing our song
And they knew all the lyrics by heart, now,
And they play in the perfect key,
And their tombstones are silhouetted,
And the band I can barely see,
Well our spirit fades, hard and cheated,
When the funeral's over, I can't leave it,
Everyone's going home, I'm defeated.
Woooooooooh
Ghost band, ghost band,
There's a ghost band, girl, playing our songs now,
Ghost band, ghost band,
There's a ghost band, girl, playing our song
And the energy's so overwhelming,
And the echo from the crowd is deafening,
And the music conveyed is convincing,
And the world doesn't seem so daunting,
And the shimmer of light tells you secrets,
In the moon, the silhouettes in an instance,
And we are seen in perfect cadence.
Woooooooooh
Ghost band, ghost band,
There's a ghost band, girl, playing our songs now,
Ghost band, ghost band,
This is not Churchhill downs this is not Hollywood Park
When the field is wide open
I'll pick the horse that's got the biggest heart
Let em run let em ride let em roll down the track
Let em win place and show
Let em one dollar exact
Six furlongs four phillys
Three mares three years and up
Who measures up
Well I wish you luck
Who measures up
Well I wish you luck
This is not Churchhill downs this is not Hollywood Park
When the field is wide open
I'll pick the horse that's got the biggest heart
Well they rush the windows and play odds on fave
(But the)My starter in 2nd deuces down a bit of give and take
Race is a puzzler when they open from the outside
It's a hit and run and they look back
You can't count on that
That's a fact
The old men from El Cerrito
Who talk about their picks
And they talk about all the wins of the great jock leftgit Pincay
This is not Churchhill downs this is not Hollywood Park
When the field is wide open
I'll pick the horse that's got the biggest heart
Every time i come back to the east bay i run into "big L"
My old friend Big L he's not doing so well
Me and Big L grew up across the freeway from the track
WE spent may days at the track
I see Big L come rollin up the street
On his little sister's pink ten speed
He said "Tim, Tim don't you remember me?"
"way back from 1973?"
Every time i se him he has to remind me
Like i would ever forget Big L
Then he's gone
Like a flash
Then he's gone
Like a flash
yeah like a flash

Well all the hooligans and bootboys know one thing for sure,
Scars been stricken on their face
Well all the hooligans and bootboys know one thing for sure,
Scars been stricken on their face
One man's decision brings another's opposition completely unbound.
Down on the flats where the seaside meets my lonely youngtown
Well all the rudies and skins well they're out on the streets making the way on the dole,
between the bottles and sex they smash and they wreck for something to live
Well all the hooligans and bootboys know one thing for sure,
scars been stricken on their face.
Sometimes you know there's no place to go,
But to a long life of crime.
Yeah but it's so wrong to steal,
Someone's very last meal to profit up a dime.
Your poe poes and greys well they end up in jail gonna swing the cowboys
Well you took a bite outta the apple of decision that got ya there boy.
Well all the hooligans and bootboys know one thing for sure,
Scars been stricken on their face
Well all the hooligans and bootboys know one thing for sure,
Scars been stricken on their face
Hooligans and bootboys, I don't want no racial hatred
"Black and white, who are portrayed without bias
These are the people whose voice I want to be..."
I said the hooligans!
Rancid
Bootboys!
Rancid
Hooligans!

Bootboys!
Rancid
Well all the hooligans and bootboys know one thing for sure,
Scars been stricken on their face

Bloody thursday was july 6th
the pigs killed 3 workers harry bridges grabbed the mic
The city shut down july 6th the workers outrage it was a general strike
The media clamed that the commies were taking over
and some believed it was true
3 uncompremising strikes was paved the way
Minn Sf and Toledo
Over and over again the doors are locked
and the windows are broken
Eddie worked for general motors and he swore
that he'd never lose his job again
A union man who owned his own home
in beautiful flint michigan
Eddie lost his job and eddie lost his wife
So eddie lost his self esteme
The last time i saw eddie
he was living in the trailer park again
Over and over again the doors are locked
and the windows are broken
I believe eddie for gave too much too soon
I got a letter from eddie and it was bad news
Over and over again the doors are locked
I am forever is what he said
Lost in a dream he never had
Doors bust open doors slam shut
The key to change is time
He said, my dear mother I let you down
No-one want to be a burden on a loved one
Doors bust open doors slam shut
The key to change is time
Riding the freight train all the while
Your building the fucking tracks
Doors bust open doors slam shut
The key to change is time
Doors bust open doors slam shut
Are you gonna be ready to use it
If you hesitate they'll pursue it
Put the gun to the dome no question
Now the holy ghost in queston
what about the banks
When they say go
Standing at the top and can't let go
Standin' can't take can't take that time
When i try sometime i can't stay high
Are you gonna be ready to use it
If you hesitate they'll pursue it
Good and evil erme from above
Death peace eternal love
Bleeding at the gates and i can't come in
Courage that abates a life of sin
Sure that it holds and it holds no others
She's a Salvador immigrant, head through a thin wall
A frail hooker, holding her carnal walls
Gleaming sky scraper bunker he looked down
Laugh hysterically and then he spread around
On Hoover Street, then he must be alone
The precious little, the kid cashed/cast the woes
Of a ? girl she kind of made you spill
Her brother Mario got shot 4 times in da head
Now see poor Mario, he caught a hot one
Through the lung, now he's done so God bless the man
And the cocaine moves too fast through their system
Like a river forever winding
To the last party of the under/loner class
? distance just a bunch of kids who don't wanna finish last
Now see the market place has changed the weight of the scale
You either get out and die or go to jail
And your best intentions splinter and frail/fail
And a few weeks of promises and attempts fail
It's a glass-pipe murder
Glass-pipe murder
Oh yeah
Glass-pipe murder
It's a glass-pipe murder
Oh yeah!!!
(Oh yeah!!!)
(Oh yeah!!!)
(Oh yeah!!!)
They kick a bottle of beer and a letter
Simple (sip of?) things made Mario feel better
You see it falls on you and it falls on me
Self-annihilation, catastrophe
Two packs of cigarettes
For two dollars and seventy cents and a
Bottle of wine that's been opened
And he said, "Why do I do this?"
A shiver through his body like a bottle of CC
Not encouraging reality or me
He said, "It's who I am baby, back to it."
Off the deep end the record changed
You see, no one stood up and cheered for him
Everyone sat down with something that happened
Began... to happen
It's an old school dorm mystery
And the handcuffs bleed...
It's a glass-pipe murder
Glass-pipe murder
Oh yeah
Glass-pipe murder
It's a glass-pipe murder
Oh yeah!!!
(Oh yeah!!!)
(Oh yeah!!!)
(Oh yeah!!!)

I hold the cold steel of my rifle as I dream of foreign lands,
and I promise myself I will cherish every moment I can,
but there's ghosts that follow me around everywhere I am.
When i say 'goodbye' I try to be strong.
now I'm going back to the U.S. where I belong.
I am never alone, the war seems to follow me home.
no longer an active soldier when i walk down the street.
now I'm shaking hands with everyone that I meet.
And I watch everyone and I'm wondering what they see.
Civilian ways are now what's foreign to me,
I came off a long time
I left this place in two oh oh three.
may we never forget the sacrifices my friends made for me.
I live in Marysville right on the county line,
and my brother and my mother both visit me all the time,
and visions of you are always running right through my mind.
We always talked about what we're gonna do when no war is won.
We're gonna fix up them old cars and ride them into the sun.
When i heard you was no longer with us, man, i was done.
Civilian ways are now what's foreign to me,
I came off a long time
I left this place in two oh oh three.
May we never forget the sacrifices my friends made for me.
May we never forget the sacrifices my friends made for me.
Books on emerson books on thoreau
But all I read was maps of the road
And I was three thousand miles away from you
All the while I was twenty-two
What do you do to know who you are?
The best way for me to drop out on tour
You went to Upstate NxY (New York) to go to school
To secure the roll with your parents
I got a new perspective on you
All the good and bad that we went through
I know you better than you know you
'Cause I got a new perspective on you
I never needed much, I never liked to loom
But a gesture can get me from across the room
The first night we talked until while the sun caught up
Transparent people melting all around us
You left in a plane, I left in a van
Played nightclub house-parties and auditoriums
Saw Germany England Italy with my band
I know you better than your new friends
I got a new perspective on you
All the good and bad that we went through
I know you better than you know you
'Cause I got a new perspective on you
Ford Econdlane September '93
Driving 10 hours until my eyes are blurry
3 packs of Winstons and a bag of seeds
Tapes of "x" and a thermos of coffee
6 weeks on and 10 days off
Then I go back on the road for another show
This is all that I've ever done
Girl I got nothing to fall back on
"But I got a new perspective on you All the good and bad that we went through

To get you family better life for every single day
Some things keep me going
Well I got no one to blame
Five o'clock is comin'

No prettiness for the mighty black lung
Rank and file workers, rank and file minds
Take off the gloves and sock it to 'em
Some things keep me going

Fifteen years 'till his liver exploded
What's Bob gonna do now that he can't drink?
The doctor said, "What were you thinkin' 'bout?"
Bob said, "That's the point, I wasn't thinkin' 'bout nothing
I gotta do something else"
Oi, oi, oi
To pass the time he went and shaved his head, a new identity
Twelve holed Doctor Martin boots
And a girl who rides a scooter
Gonna take him out of town
They would get away riding around as the trucks drive by
You could here the motherfuckers go
A couple of lines, an extra thermos of Joe
He'll be kickin' in heads at the punk rock show
Bob's the kinda guy who knows just
Bob's the kinda guy who knows just what to do
When the doctor tells him to quit your drinkin' all the time
Will he ever walk the line to all my friends I feel fine
But will he ever walk the line kickin' ass and bustin' heads
Red suspenders, once a day he shaves his head
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?
But will he ever walk the line?

American shopping malls,
Where a product is sold and bought here,
Euthanizing the public,
While the dead walk the escalators,
They come from the loudspeakers,
They hear a subliminal message,
An ad entices you, the consumer,
And there's no way to find it.
Is it you?
Is it you who's been orchestrated?
Is it you?
Is it you who's born frustrated?
Hey! Hey! Hey!

Is it you who's born frustrated?
Is this human freedom,
Hedonistic excess?
Junky consumerism,
Mass-production, toxic sickness,
Everyone is wearing now,
Plastic masks that they hide behind,
Marketing massive sales of nothing,
Everything is selling.
Is it you?
Is it you who's been orchestrated?

Of the swarming vultures!

Friday night we'll be drinkin' Manishevitz
Goin' out to terrorize Goyem
Stompin' shagitz, screwin' shicksas
As long as we're home by Saturday morning
'Cause hey, we're the Brews
Sportin' anti-swastika tattoos
Oi, oi we're the boys
Orthodox, hesidic, O.G. Ois
Orthopedic, Dr. Martins good for
Waffle making, kickin' through the shin
Reputation, gained through intimidation
Pacifism no longer tradition
'Cause hey, we're the Brews
Sportin' anti-swastika tattoos
Oi, oi we're the Brews
The fairfax ghetto boys skinhead Hebrews
We got the might, psycho mashuganas
We can't lose a fight, as we are the chosen ones
Chutspah, we battle then we feast
We celebrate, we'll separate our milkplates from our meat
We're the Brews
Sportin' anti-swastika tattoos
Oi, oi we're the boys
13 red and white stripes flying
White for skin and red for dying
Why can't i
walk on through
And not feel like
one is in hell
We don't need no water
Like sand, just take your dreams away
Running on the ground
At the end of the day it's your life, your loss
If you can't get the clock around
I said what I got you can have ?
You better not miss a shot
You're letting yourself get into all kinds of danger
Soon enough you're gonna get caught
They had a feeling
Was like you had to prove you're one in a million
And I'm talking bout junkies been dealing
This time the drugs are you
And they'll come through
It ain't gonna stop 'til they get what they want
And I say
Nobody knows me, I'm all alone
Ah yayayayay I gotta go
It's a Hollywood bus stop and the party's over
Ah yayayayay I gotta go
John ? his homeboy down so he waited for a ride
Then waited to come by at the Hollywood's concert backslide
With affordable odds and a sunroof, nestled among the filth
Frequencies and bad intentions, gotta take it for what it's worth
Have you ever been hunted
By your past
And it will never let you go
Well never never let you go
No! I said
Well never never let you go
And I say
Nobody knows me, I'm all alone
Ah yayayayay I gotta go
It's a Hollywood bus stop and the party's over
I started watchin' them all down the line
Keep steppin' and rejectin' all the time
They try to pull me in
Can't let that happen again
They try to do it again all on me
Sedation through the nation
We're screaming black and blue
Intoxication of a generation
We're screaming black and blue
The blind leading the blind
They told me i was dumb
They said their security system was too big to outrun
I broke away and i'm never goin' back
For all the souls they broke
Mine never cracked
Sedation through the nation
We're screaming black and blue
Intoxication of a generation
Talkin' 'bout the Moron Bros
Tattooed fingers, tattooed toes
They're idiots, they're losers, they're scum
Yeah, they'll take advantage of everyone
You're a dog, they're your fleas
Yeah, they'll do anything just to spread disease
Drink your beer, take your drugs
They will leave you with microscopic bugs
Their company you surely won't miss
When your ashtrays are filled with piss
Talkin' 'bout the Moron Bros
Tattooed fingers, tattooed toes
They'll whine, they'll bitch
They'll fuck you if you?re rich
They'll leach, they'll latch
They're like an itch, you can't scratch
They are the Moron Brothers
Don't get along with others
They are the Moron Brothers
Don't get along with others
Yeah, they may not go down in history
Midnight
I know where i am
That's right
I know where i'm going
Shut down
Vacant city ghost town
Tensions rising
Kick kick kick the door in
Lock lock lock around
And affairs affairs of the nation
When the presure came down
Sustain autority
Midnight
I know i can
That's right
I ain't broken
Shut down
Vacant city ghost town
Tensions rising
Kick kick kick the door in
Lock lock lock around
And affairs of the nation
When the presure came down

[Lars:] I was an atheist,
You wore the crucifix,
We put our differences to the side,
This time a lesson learned,
You told me not to mourn,
Your heart is bigger every night I'm alive.
[Tim:] Campbell, California,
Aw, please don't let me down,
Robert, I remember when you used to run the town,
I'll never forget, and I'll always be your friend,
I'll be seeing you on the other side.
[Both:] Robert, I'll see you on the other side.
[Lars:] I'm waking up to this,
The pain that you are free,
I miss the days that you walked with me,
You're a brother, a loyal friend,
Showed me how to be a man,
I love you, Robert, and I always will.
[Tim:] Campbell, California,
Aw, please don't let me down,

Hangin' out with Lars down on 6th street
he knew I was in trouble
I was feeling much like the devil
there was something burnin' deep inside of me
ran into three Puerto Ricans
these girls took us to the funhouse
where we played a lonely pinball machine
hangin' on the corner of 52nd. and Broadway
cars passin' by but none of them seem to be goin' my way
New York City well I wish I was on a highway
back to Olympia...
I'm having a hard time understanding
it gets all too demanding
she's all gone and I'm stranded
something burning deep inside of me
all I know it's 4'o'clock and
she ain't never showed up
and I watched a thousand people go home from work
how many times will it take me
before I go crazy
before I lose everything
something burning deep inside of
me ran into three Puerto Ricans
those girls took us to the funhouse
Good morning heartache
You're like an old friend
Come and see me again
Good morning heartache
You're like an old friend
Come and see me again
Look up you're in Cleveland again
A solid line that never ends
I've got stories that you'll never believe
And I know it I wear, I wear it on my sleeve
There must be somethin' about you that I liked but
Right here in the rain you know it just don't seem right
I always go out I never hide but in Cleveland
I should have stayed inside
Good morning heartache
You're like an old friend
Come and see me again
Good morning heartache
You're like an old friend
Come and see me again
Testify my love for you
And I know it runs deep through your body too
From the cold blacktop to the hot concrete
The old tan van it ain't so sweet
Good morning heartache
You're like an old friend
Come and see me again
Good morning heartache
You're like an old friend
Come and see me again
Somewhere in America in the city at night
We were far from home but you know it was gonna be alright
The unfortunate get prayed on by vultures eyes
86 cents in these pockets of mine
And you can take my money, you can take my time
But you can't take my heart it's in the city behind
Good morning heartache
You're like an old friend
Come and see me again
Good morning heartache
You're like an old friend
Some people say I'm fuckin crazy
But it don't phase me
It's just amazing
Someone shout out Hallelujah
Roulette spinner blackjack winner
She was a minuscule miniskirt hiked up
And if you like that you walk a tight rope
Blood of Jesus gonna cleans ya
So lets begin to put down a wage
Everybody tells me to look within but I'll look within the city of sin
I'm gonna tell you one thing, It's not to regret
I the city of sin, in the city of sin
It's a modern day Sodom and Gomorra
Bus station, no hesitation
For some poor bastard it's a ruin
It's like a coffin, a desert Kremlin
If your lucky then you'll fuckin hit it
You take an avoid with the money then you split it
It don't matter if you win there, just to be there rather than elsewhere
Everybody tells me to look within but I'll look within the city of sin
I'm gonna tell you one thing, It's not to regret
In the city of sin, in the city of sin
Some people say I'm fuckin crazy
But it don't phase me
It's just amazing
Someone shout out Hallelujah

total rejection total destruction
nihilistic feelings are moving if i try real hard

i was so full of scotch i could not stand up
i was hittin the shots and i moved to a cup
white ghettos paint a picture
Ah, no
No, no
With a gleaming success
With a different try
Religious indifference
Mixed it through the lines
Territorial company, they legitimize
Persecution to form enterprise
Now the UN is called to buffer it all
The problem is spreading international
Like Ireland's Belfast, it's coming to be a brand new key
Working class girl puts her money to the test
She's got a new dress, she's gonna look her best
Yugoslavia's been blown to bits, yeah
She's got a new dress, she's lookin' to the west
Well entertain the idea of a peaceful end[Incomprehensible]
Of a world which is seen the citizens die
While the innocent children play near fire now
When I'm not getting through and see evidence
Another truth, we're bombing us
The time for civil war is sooner I live
The chivalrous ones are never represented
Working class girl puts her money to the test, yeah
She's got a new dress, she's gonna look her best
Yugoslavia's been blown to bits, yeah
She's got a new dress, she's lookin' to the west
Allocating people for [Incomprehensible]
The methods of the summons are dastardly
Try to cleanse the hands of the murdering
But the advantage of guilt is lingering
Shadows of soldiers lay nearby
The dead ones finally reach a compromise
Destruction of war lies in Bosnia
You don't know my name
man you don't know my name
Paint a number on my head
work me 'til i'm dead
I can't believe i've wasted
all these years i've tasted
A million days and nights all this pain and struggle
All for what i ask all the hate and trouble
You don't know my name
man you don't know my name
Punch drunk from the punch clock
opportunity never gonna knock
No more blue collar
all the unions gettin' smaller
A million nights and all the pain and struggle
All for what i ask all the hate and trouble
You don't know my name
If you wanna make a move then you better come in
It's just the ability to reason that wears so thin
Living and dying and the stories that are true
The secret to a good life is knowing when your through...
...before she died
I bit the bullet on a motorcycle ride
...if you wanna make a move then you better come in
It's just the ability to reason that wears so thin
If you wanna make a move then you better come in
It's just the ability to reason that wears so thin
...before she died
Another show with a fucked up promoter
Kids sent in by the media controller
They arrived in a '87 Ford with a gun rack
case of Bud and stiletto blade
It's the kind of show you end up at
when you get stabbed by the blade
big business made
I WANNA GO BOOT I WANNA GO BLADE
The main controller tried to buy me out but I didn't buy it
Some people did and there is nothing I could do about it
They arrived in a '87 Ford with a gun rack
case of Bud and a stiletto blade
It's the kind of show you end up at
when you get stabed by the blade
big business made
I WANNA GO BOOT I WANNA GO BLADE
The kids unloads his glock into the urban blight
Bullets sprayed the car as we drove into the night
We lived to tell the story and I'm goona tell you
The State of the Union of the State of California
Chaos discontent I'm a lunatic
Thirty days in the street is how I'm doing it
A life of no money a quart of Cisco
The horses are loose I got mine let's go
The enemy would not expect an attack at this hour
The moon is a sliver the darkness gives me power
Come and find me I'm gonna be here
Come and find me I like it
Spent some time in a shelter down on Webster
you think I'm going back you must be joking
If I ever forget how bad it was to be homeless
I must still be high from the dope I was smoking
LAST NIGHT I WAS THINKING
EARLY MORNING DRINKING
THE DEVIL'S GOT WORK FOR
IDLE HANDS
Spent some time in a shelter down on Webster

LAST NIGHT IW WAS THINKING
EARLY MORNING DRINKING

Try to hit us but you keep on missing
I KNEW THE SENTENCE THEN

DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU
APOCALYPSE RADIO
Sometimes I'm a total wreck
I want to break someone's neck
I get a subwoofer going
Four twelves get my blood stream going
Never saw it coming paid my price in time
It's been ten years or more with all the
battle scars in my mind
I KNEW THE SENTENCE THEN
I KNEW IT WAS GONNA BLOW
DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU
Bloody thursday was july 6th
the pigs killed 3 workers
harry bridges grabbed the mic
The city shut down july 6th
the workers outrage it was a general strike
The media clamed that the commies were taking over and some believed it was true
3 uncompremising strikes was paved the way Minn Sf and Toledo
But on the situation
But on the street sometimes
break down the fear
i got my animosity
i'm gonna breake it down
armageddon is coming so you better start running

He once was so clear but now he's a blur
I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO'S NOT AFRAID OF YOU
The homeless child is no roll she played
It is real as anything the system has made
She's a monument forever standing
Inner city exposure can be extremely demanding
The pattern is circular as we pass the wine
She could no longer live with the lying
Her family tried to control her feelings
It just gave her new life a deeper meaning
Either you shut up or you shut down
I'm not the only one

Reverence to your lies as a person you're bad
Falsified living on the truth you're gonna choke

Well it's so fucking high that your nose bleeds
They watch you break the nose out of respect
You broke the nose that is correct
The gates of hell are they closing in
The victim's family going condemn him

The prophet speaks his language, reeks,
Survival dormant, schemes and sneaks,
His blood is weak, he's an oil sheik,
Information leak, operations wait.
There's no security in the battlefield,
No Armageddon strength, no human shields,
A brand-new country, they're gonna build,
One more riot this I will.
Stay out of control!
It's out of control!
Stay out of control!
We're outta control, we're outta control, we're outta control, we're outta control!
Chopped-up waste in the (???)
Pick up your shovel, do what you're told,
The (probe?) is on the (???)
To the middle of nights, to the middle of homes.
Well, I'm done joking, are you a miss?
Deliberate line and recklessness,
Don't keep questioning the ims,
Resist, resist, resist, resist!
Stay out of control!
It's out of control!
Stay out of control!
Little Sammy was a punk rocker

Little Sammy was a punk rocker

Sammy now the war is over now we're at the wars end
Little Sammy was a punk rocker

Rwanda yeah your moon shines bright
Rwanda over planned genocide
Rwanda, won't you be strong like a lion
Tune in the transistor
And listen to the news
Cause once a week it hits ya
Heart broken and blue
It's the voice over Africa
so stop peregrination
So listen very closely to half a million dead souls
Rwanda yeah your moon shines bright
Rwanda over planned genocide
Rwanda, won't you be strong like a lion
It's complicated when facts come slow
Mass destruction mass confusion
Whats the difference to the orphan
Orphans of the dead
When no more machine guns strike and there's silence instead
Rwanda yeah your moon shines bright
Rwanda over planned genocide
(That is the vision of the anarchist... it is also a boy's dream)
True to Warsaw, glad we did it
Beat him down with a baseball bat
Police retreated the riot scenes in fear of a baseball bat
Working class intellectuals, disillusion you for sure
Broken dreams in warsaw, where all the dreams fall down
American baseball bat!
Demolish the discotheque!
And how many blows to his forearm and neck
'Til he lay in the schoolyard, bludgeoned to death!
December 13, '81, who remembers a loaded gun?
Who remembers the first morning of martial law?
Hey, you should bring that Louisville
Yeah man, I'll know where
Yeah man economic (? army), hardship in Warsaw
American baseball bat!
Demolish the discotheque!
And how many blows to his forearm and neck
'Til he lay in the schoolyard, bludgeoned to death!
Don't ever take away from me my pornography
Obviously we don't agree on what's obscene
I have the right to choose what I want to see and read
Don't ever try to take away from me and my right to privacy
Because what I do is no one's business but me
So stay in your missionary position
I hope that you get bored to death
There's no way in hell I'm going through life havin' vanilla sex
The government is tryin' to get in your bedroom
Better lock your door and close your shades
Because there could be someone watching you today
Why do try to make things illegal?
Why do we have to be twenty-one?
You're so afraid that people are havin' way too much fun, ya know
Why do you care what I do in my bedroom?
Why do you wanna know how I screw?
Who would've thought that the dreams come true?
And who would've thought I ended up with you?
And who would've thought what they said was true?
But it was and you are, lighted darkness come through
Silhouetted palm trees backing it up against the sky
Echo Park sunset, an ambulance drives by
But someone went down
And I wonder who
Faces flash forward, it could be anybody I knew
So I drank like a fish and I crawled like a rat
Through the city of shit I ended up on my back
But I can't believe you're with me after dark
So let it come together in Echo Park
And I say
Who would've thought that the dreams come true?
And who would've thought I ended up with you?
And who would've thought what they said was true?
But it was and you are, lighted darkness come through
A red flag and your body wins
Or a snake bite, gotta start again
So I'm fucked up and watching TV all day
I don't wanna see what Ricki Lake gotta say
And it hits me when I'm alone, I'm an angry man
I start singing to myself I got dealt a shitty hand
With all these feelings my heart could explode
So is it not fear, knowing it all
And I say
Who would've thought that the dreams come true?
And who would've thought I ended up with you?
And who would've thought what they said was true?
It was and you are, lighted darkness come through
Nah nah nah nah nah
Who would've thought that the dreams come true?
And who would've thought I ended up with you?
And who would've thought what they said was true?
every city got an artery where the blood breaks down
an avenue or a boulevard and a boy who wears a crown
indigant live styles mplies simply lack of means
dogmatical authoritarians dictate the cities remains
a promise
to go to heaven wont put salvation in sight
Whirlwind is coming down on me
when the factory shut down so did the place he lived
blood money for junk bonds by a white collar fugitive
all the tax free insentives ain't going to help him now
generations of job security gone out like the horse and plow
a promise
to go to heaven won't put salvation in sight
Whirlwind is coming down on me
my old man worked his troubled life in a nowhere dead end
he drank the pain away i'll be damned if that's me having my dreams robbed
the working class carries a country that has been rotting inside for years
the rigs cuffed my old man in the front yard i saw through my eyes of tears
a promise to go to heaven wont put salvation in sight
A cat lies awake when it sleeps
was she conscious of her own miseries
will the agony of her pain
win her to enlightenment and set conscience free

My self an outlaw in the eyes of the lord
Good man lose and the bad men win
The blind and the sick i attenuate them
Barrels of concrete and melted steel
Black smoke rises like a ghost in the field
Hardened lungs deep breathing the air
That stings the life from within me
Succobus catches on and it won't let me go
The leprosy sets in and you got no glue
The 3rd world working on the factory floor
It's so dark in there you can't see the sun no more
Cold and burnt, are frostbitten hands
Leave you like a flower that's been pulled from the sands
Rabbid dogs chewing at my feet
Trying to protect their side of the street
Army of Babylon, Young Al Capone yeah
Army of Babylon, Young Al Capone yeah
Young Al Capone yeah (Young Al Capone yeah)

Hit some fucking people by the Kennedy strait
Who's got the bag gonna seal his fate?
Well the park bench, door and
Sleeping here for free
Little kids sitting in the shooting gallery
Set yourself up for manifested misery
Well this is what you want
not the way they fucking say
Hangin out with Sid yet again in the USA
Nobody knows where anybody goes
But where she got it, I know she'll go
You can't chase it, you bought her all that
But I never knew she acts like that

There's nothing below and there's nothing up here
I don't care, I don't care
There's nothing below and there's nothing up here
Sabrina, Sabrina, Sabrina
Another rainy night, she missed the flight
Eighteen chapters she'll need to write
Another day of living, she goes to confession
I know the Catholic girl was sinning

There's nothing below and there's nothing up here
I don't care, I don't care
There's nothing below and there's nothing up here
Sabrina, Sabrina, Sabrina

On the left, to the right
Pressure gridlock eye on the prize
On my knees finally
The irony is you saying please
If you sleep too long the fires go out
You dare to dream and we have no doubt
One ahead one behind
It's physical no cold fish apply
Junk in your words don't show in your face I wait for your face to break
Vicious and clean edge like a razor hunting the lazerblade
Its free to the sweet one the short and the brief one silence is dangerous
Show me illusion in all the confusion peculiar database
Open up what am I ?
It's all in the book babe line after line
Easily voice on the line soothe it to sooth you

Everything's reject and demanded,
Lived your life and thought handled it

Keep them coming cause It's kind a boring
It ain't coming you have to find it
'Cause all of a sudden you got grounded
You didn't care, you just did
At the sign that said: "all beware",
In and Out and said: 'Oi, Tik, Tok',
I'm glad you got away of me
Let the dying shorten this Rythmmmm!!!
Let's Go! Where the shores are green
Let's Go! Where the Music's loud

Jesus and his ? wage a final war
Religious self-prestigious keep the quest for the holy grail
The eye atop the pyramid is open and awake
The Pagans hold the rituals and the fire won't begin to say:
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Come along and tell your sister and your brother.
The force of war, dynamite blast
Rides on the weak and the poor
Don't want to see my brother in pain when the man fights big man's wars
Don't know nothing 'bout no red, white and blue
Little men, big ?
Too many win, nobody lose
? choose
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Come along and tell your sister and your brother.
The conscience of the public can not be put to sleep
The conglomerate of the nations has no bounds in which they seek
Was it the Mob tellin' the CIA to install/restore this state of fear
How many of us wish we were up to Kennedy's ear?
Say:
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Come along and tell your sister and your brother.
See them try to rule the world
We don't know why
Why they want to rule the world
Cuya ?
Only white men and black men's..? the white power ?
The guns of mass destruction, them fighting about
Buying the world is only so much money
Here they come ? in the knees
World wide hunger ? one fear
Well gangster treaties who keep us in fear
How much more cannot people deal?
Need no more division
Need no more pride and I, I will keep on fighting to keep what's mine
We the people speaking our mind
And once more, would you say it for me now?
Dynamite blast of the force of war
Government rides on the weak and poor
Don't want to see my brother in pain no more
When the little man fights all the big man's war
? victimize
Mental slavery with the clever disguise
Our prides on our people must rise
Decide your fate
Life won't wait!!!
Life won't wait!!!
Oh, life won't wait!!!
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Come along and tell your sister and your brother.
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.
Division is the new world order.

The ending isn't here (there's somethin' wrong)
but it's comin'real soon (i lock step I'm gone)
i said the feeling isn't fear (there's something wrong)
it's just telling you to move (i lock step I'm gone)
there's a fire on the corner and it's never gonna stop
killer in the neighborhood never got caught
I lock up my door step out and I'm gone
waitin' for the buses but the buses won't come
all the docks are quiet (there's somethin' wrong)
and there's no ships comin' in (i lock step I'm gone)
where there once was a riot (there's somethin' wrong)
there's a whole lot of nothin' (lock step i'm gone)
the stop signs broken and the meters goin' down
wild dogs are runnin' themselves into the ground
everything was clear for that moment in time
if I don't come back well throw me a line
well the docks are quiet (there's somethin' wrong)
and there's no ships comin' in (i lock step i'm gone)
where there once was a riot (there's somethin' wrong)
Set out to mislead
Sets out to murder
False appearance is everything to him
Is he good today, or is he evil
In a violent crazy spewing words of madness
It can go either way you never know
Conditioned to deceived and that's how he likes it
With all the guns going off who can say no to the guy
Who watch out, who's fucking nuts
'Cause Loki's playing tricks again
Loki's playing tricks again
Loki's playing tricks again
Maxwell can't tell he's in hell

calling maxwell murder for you

chop the rock before you bought it
I've lived my whole life, made mistakes,
From the get-go,
Street kid from the start, right, no regrets though,
I do what I want, yeah, cuz I said so,
No sleep for the wicked, right? No, bed no.
Rollin' with the punk rockers,
I ain't lying,
Fake guns, fake bands,
Fake punk, I ain't buying,
Hit the road,
All I know,
Rock and roll ain't dying, about fifteen deep,
We hit the streets low ridin.
By the time we made it to New Orleans,
It must have been half past three.
By the time we made it to Memphis,
We were crazy.
Tonight, you are our blanket,
And are gonna keep us warm,
Tonight, protect us from the storm.
He was back, causing troubled
Time's they're a comin' round,
Oh no, let me go to another round,
Tuesday night is when the storm's gonna settle down,
Had a glance, circumstance,
Don't cause, trouble bound,
She's the one, all alone, I come lookin',
Smoke and mirrors as I watch,
Aw, that girl was trippin',
It's no fun, lost again,
To have your heart broken,
Greed is from a world that is built on hustling.
By the time we made it to New Orleans,
It must have been half past three.
By the time we made it to Memphis,
We were crazy.
Tonight, draw a blanket,
and you're gonna keep us warm,
Tonight, protect us from the storm.
The breaks were falling when they had failed,
Every road can lead ya straight down to fucking hell,
Rain stopped falling when they had failed,
Every road can take ya straight down to hell.
Doing nothing here, everyone straight trippin,
Happy at times, are gone, past starts slippin,
This will be enough to keep me on the road livin,
Good every night, in a different city I'll be sleepin,
Let me know, here we go, met a girl named Lola,
Is she here? Is she there? Drinking Jack and cola,
She says, "Tim, where ya been? I got somethin' to show ya,
Lola fired off her clothes and started rock and rollin!
By the time we made it to New Orleans,
It must have been half past three.
By the time we made it to Memphis,
We were crazy.
Tonight, draw a blanket,
and you're goona keep us warm,
Tonight, protect us from the storm.
On the cusp of an explosion
I answer with evil that's the way that I play it
Street Turks multiple confusions
I gnash spit
I grind my teeth
Got a gun and a knife
Staring back at you
No security force or vigilante's
overweight ego can dethrone me
Ostracized if not otherwise
Left to my own device you'll surly see
Got a gun and a knife
Staring back at you
Got a gun and a knife
Everybody wants to come down
but no one wants to pay
I try to show 'em
but they do anyway
I was "nock shock nock nock down" to my knees
Same thing for my duty quiz
Gunshot! Gunshot! Gunshot through my heart
Sometimes there are guys
who can deal with me
Everything's imperive
but I don't fucking need
I know where you are but I don't care
I thought I'd use my "no decision"
Gunshot!
Gunshot!
Gunshot through my heart
Gunshoooooooooooot!
Gunshoooooooooooot!
Gunshoooooooooooot!
Gunshoooooooooooot!
Gunshot!
Gunshot!
Gunshot through my heart
Gunshot!
Gunshot!
Yeah!
She says his power is what's happening
Well I'll be sure to be respecting nothing's stopping him
And to move up for him about crushing them
And I'll kick you plain and simple it's a sin man
Leave it to the coroner to detect this
And I'm sure the U.S.A. to wreck this
He drives a tricked out tricked out tricked out Lexus
And he looks at the city says I can take this
It's high into a corner where the one leads
Well it's so fucking high that your nose bleeds
They watch you break the nose out of respect
You broke the nose that is correct
The gates of hell are they closing in The victim's family going condemn him
He said, "Ah don't trust them"
Yeah he'll show them
The sword, the jewel, imagination

Violence, wealth and knowledge
Cash, culture and violence
Oh you're ridng and you're riding on the wings of destruction
Cash, culture and violence

Poisoned like a rat who drank some strychnine gin

Bureaucratic military federation
Living dead will need to rise again
The delicate skipped it heard the rumble
And the legions that are timid lord they crumble
And consequently nothing but a concrete jungle
And lord I wonder

Opportunity shifting here
So far the strategy aint working the facts are in it's so very clear
I do what I want I can't predict the future
And those who can I know that they are lying
I know the truth can be hard to swallow
A soap opera world leaders are crying
Correction I need no direction
Oh let me go just one last time
I spend my whole life searching for direction
Oh let me go just one last time
You can burn a book if you don't like the answers
Or join forces with an AXL grind
USA protecting your cancers
A list if hatred is easy to find
Well there's a growing sentiment in America
If you listen closely you can hear them all
Right is right wrong is wrong and evil
Consider it bad behavior
Correction I need no direction

Talking square never change
And if I really wanna know
What it means for her to be free
Oh she's mixing cocktails
In a squat down Avenue C
LORD HAVE MERCY!!!
The parasitics cling on the motionless things that
Oughta give her a fight
and ditches can be shallow so I know
There won't be no fucking rainbow in sight
And then deny allegations so strenuously
Oh man, don't get outta control
She was left wrestling in a silent anger
So elligent and beautifull
I ain't looking for answers
I don't want nothing is for free
I sure don't want your respect
I just wanna know who's talking to me

Trepadation aint nothin new
Cause she vexes them,oh to confuse them
oh to annoy yea thats what she do

once unstopable for you and me
She won't relinquish herself to you unless it's an emergency
She can cry, she can hide on the lower east side
Feel so low in the fast lane curse
Above all the infamous

When America was dreaming
Some pigs stole our country
Lulu stands by her family
With harmony and history
there's two kinds of stories
Either comedy or tragedy
Lulu
ah ah ah ah ah Lulu

Lulu works all day long
She goes 9 to 5 just

Her husband now

Lulu

Locomotive won't stop
Locomotive ain't never gonna quit
Locomotive made of iron and steel
Locomotive I am you
From the East Bay garage
to the radio dial
we've been noted
for our combative style
You never give up
with no chance to win
We know who you are
And we've been where you've been
Locomotive won't stop
Locomotive ain't never gonna quit
Locomotive made of iron and steel
Locomotive I am you
The Wall Street Bailout
is crooked and stacked
The burdens gonna end up
on the working man's back
I know times are changing
and there's a new sound
I'm glad you all made it
it's good to have you around
Locomotive won't stop
Locomotive ain't never gonna quit
Locomotive made of iron and steel
Locomotive I am you
Car Lights flash my eyes
Blinded, Hypnotized
Lord knows I'm living
and I'm never coming back
Now one generation dies
Next one wins the prize
and that's the big surprise
there's demise in all of their lies
it's never to late to realize
That's just the way things are
that's just the way it is now [x2]
I walk through the cemetery
it's all empty
Now I put a rose
on the grave of a fallen hero
And I look out into the wild
All I see is emptiness
So much loneliness
I just want forgiveness
That's just the way things are
that's just the way it is now [x2]
When dreams fade away
It won't be long
End up singing the same old song
What went right, What Went Wrong
Bad times here, Good times gone
First rule they always sell
Second rule never tell
Third rule straight to hell
White collar criminals
Living in jail
it's all that they gave
Sold your soul to get paid
Buy you end up in an early grave
Your own neck you can't save
it's a letter that you can't send
it's a wound that will never mend
Pain level peaks at ten
Some stand out Some stand in
That's just the way things are
This is one of the good times when
When his brains lies on the pavement
With a broken bone in his hand
And another in his back
Do you feel alright
Oi oi oi
Someone's gonna die tonight
Oi oi oi
Do you feel alright
Oi oi oi
The boys are out tonight
Was it something that he said
With a broken bone in his hand
He will never understand
Do you feel alright
Oi oi oi
Someone's gonna die tonight
Oi oi oi
Do you feel alright
Oi oi oi
The boys are out tonight
This is one of the good times when
When his brains lies on the pavement
With a broken bone in his hand
And another in his back
Do you feel alright
Oi oi oi
Someone's gonna die tonight
Oi oi oi
Do you feel alright
Oi oi oi
She's my go-go baby
she's my honky tonk girl
She dances on my table
She dances on a pole
Some cities Born,
Some cities Burn
Some cities Die,
Some cities Learn
Some cities take the
worst of the turn
And if it ain't your business
then it's not your concern
Listen, Brick buildings
Broken windows, smoke stacks
Tell me somethings broken
And there's blood tracks
And if you see the train coming
you're gonna relax
So tell the facts Ma'am
only the facts
Stand down what you gonna do
she's a wild one
I'm a wild one too
She's my go-go baby
she's my honky tonk girl
She dances on my table
She dances on a pole
Midnight and I'm rolling on
Nobody sees me coming home
And out here man
A lot of things can go wrong
Shhh Listen to my song
The Morgue is busy
day after day
Stick it on the line
and throw it away
And if you see it coming on
Then you got it made
And the Grave Diggers laugh
As they rot and decay
Say it loud,
What you gonna do
she's a wild one
And I'm a wild one too
She's my go-go baby
she's my honky tonk girl
She dances on my table
She dances on a pole
I'm a wild one
Always outnumbered, never outgunned
Rolling to Alabama
Performing a hen

What a company keeps
You stand by
To a land
How is Zimbabwe
Back street to creep
Always outnumbered, never outgunned
To Canada
Sharing, Rolling
North folk blitz me
Boxing in a TV show
Nothing to fight to Philadelphia
When we get every single song like it goes
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
More to knuckle
Next is Nashvill
Take to forty to Memphis to sea
Clubs and truck house
Take in NAFTA
Middle rock is flaring
Boston, baby sweet
Always outnumbered never outgunned
We beg and say hello to anyone
Always outnumbered never outgunned
We don't back down to no one , no fear, no more
You want it, We got it
This is the place
Where everyone can belong
You want it, we got it
Kicking up a riot
Won't you all sing along
Can't tell you

Every town man I'm know in
You want it, We got it
This is the place
Where everyone can belong
You want it, we got it
Kicking up a riot
Won't you all sing along
Some live a life
of indecision
Strung out in the
petty schisms
I heard GBH
I made a decision
Punk Rock is my religion
You want it, We got it
This is the place
Where everyone can belong
You want it, we got it
Kicking up a riot
Won't you all sing along

Cloudy days are looking sunny
So why don't you come

You want it, We got it
This is the place
Where everyone can belong
You want it, we got it
Kicking up a riot
Won't you all sing along
To all our friends
BY this I swear
You want it, We got it
This is the place
Where everyone can belong
You want it, we got it
Kicking up a riot

the bravest kids i know are the ones that
Well I went south
With a case of survival
To amend my heart that's paper thin
You see I felt her words
and her images filed
I'm gonna carry my heart to New Orleans
I have no home to go
So I wander awhile
From coast to coast
From sin to sin
From the coldest shores
To the warmest islands
Been around the world
Back to New Orleans
Well she's got pride
Like a million lions
She's got a scar
on her velvet face
She's got a smile
like a newborn child
She's gotta walk,
a Stoic Grace
I never slept that night
Until my arrival
I romanticized a long embrace
You see I lost my tongue
and burned my Bible
But made it back home to New Orleans
Well she's got pride
Like a million lions
She's got a scar
on her velvet face
She's got a smile
like a newborn child
She's gotta walk
a Stoic Grace
Well I held my breath
and I swam for miles
When all was lost
and hell took place
You see it rained all night
and the city she flooded
It rained all night in New Orleans
Yeah it rained all night in New Orleans
Yeah it rained all night in New Orleans
Yeah it rained all night in New Orleans
(Check this out.)
War between races, war between lies,
War between something that lays out deep inside,
The deadliest one, come blazin' and identified,
(Yeah) How many must lay, before we realize?
(And I say,) How many must lay, before we realize?
I caught... (I caught,)
a glimpse, I caught a glimpse of things to come.
I was jolted, I caught a glimpse of things to come.
One that stops, and launches and explosion.
I caught a glimpse of things to come.
It falls on you, and then it, it falls on me.
Outside the church the streets are wet,
It's a, half past three.
Well ya, ya get your moves all steady,
Cause no good is up again.
Mortally wounded, the one on the front seat,
It's the beginning of the end.
(And ah,)
God bless the dead, and the family and friends.
I caught... (I caught,)
a glimpse, I caught a glimpse of things to come.
I was jolted, I caught a glimpse of things to come.
One that stops, and launches and explosion.
I caught a glimpse of things to come.
[Originally by Bob Marley]

I saw - a new generationcoming
Under - the smoke over Oakland
In and out - the streets are breathing
Under - the smoke over Oakland
Chaos disorder looting and loiter
From a blind man praying for some silence - for some silence
???Take a loot on the moon not a foot in the room???
My best intentions always ended in a fight - in a fight
You can send me to hell expose me I'll tell
Just take control and say what they're doing - what they're doing
Two-fifty dead the tribune read Oakland's going off like a bomb!
I saw - a new generation coming
Under - the smoke over Oakland
In and out - the streets are breathing
Under - the smoke over Oakland
Armageddon is coming so yea you better start running
Cause the big wave is coming to the shore - to the shore
No surprise that you see thru the lies
of a system rotten to the core - to the core
High tech surveilence paranoia and violence
Keeping the city at a calm - at a calm
Two-fifty dead the tribune read Oakland's going off like a bomb!
I saw - a new generation coming
Under - the smoke over Oakland
In and out - the streets are breathing
Under - the smoke over Oakland
Man it just don't seem right
You see every time I turn I around it's just the same story and it's like
It just don't seem right and I wonder is it gonna end?Hit it!
Knocking down the doors slogans on the walls
One said fight back yea the system will falL
The police came out with tear gas and flames
Chaos in the city beating them at the game
Don't pay the poll tax the headlines read
Thirty cops beaten another one dead
The fight lasted on through the Brixton night
A thousand angry looters who knew they were right
I saw - a new generation coming
Under - the smoke over Oakland
In and out - the streets are breathing
Under - the smoke over Oakland
I saw - a new generation coming
Under - the smoke over Oakland
In and out - the streets are breathing
Under - the smoke over Oakland
I need the comfort
That's in your arms
Squeeze and hold me tight
And keep me warm
I need the passion
That's in your heart
Say you'll never leave
And be apart

It's time you took the chance
And put your hand in mine
So don't walk away

Of your darling face
Accept this crown of love
And live in grace
I need the colors
Painted in your mind
Your beauty and your brilliance
So hard to find
So don't walk away
Don't turn your back

The ladies on the corner selling extacy.
They're dressed in fancy get ups like in porno magazines
Minors in the disco takes his first drink
Cops on the lawn waitin' for the kids to leave.

I saw a man get the beat down
Took his money and his wallet left him dead on the ground
I saw them gather celebrate the crime
Teachin us the laughter another lesson of mankind
I raise my hand I got another question
If I start a riot, will I get protection
Cause i'm a kid whos got a lotta problems
If i throw a brick maybe the brick will go and solve them
Oh, yeah, I wanna riot
Oh, yeah, I wanna riot
I'm boilin up the citys on heat
Red alert tention you know its on the street
Code blue the city of the dead
Sirens in the night with the lights bloody red
See how we do this see how we ride
Throw a brick, light the fuse, dodge a bullet, duck inside
A statistic hammered on my brain
Branded with another nother pawn in the game
Oh, yeah I wanna riot
Oh, yeah I wanna riot
In front of me the misery
Cryin in line got a burning to be
My face is burning, burning so quick
Burning like a candle at the end of its wick
Well i turn the dial i turn the channel
I turn it to a monster fighting the eternal battle
I need some help and there is no doubt
If i'm gonna go down i'm gonna take somebody else
Oh, yeah, I wanna riot
Yeah
Well I heard you say I need something
About friendship that loyalty's the weapon of the weak
When you can't, can't, can't, can't, can't realize
And the tears comes down and release
My love to you is true
A tattoo
That ain't ever coming off
I'll wait for the truth hits you
I'll take a loss at any cost
When we met you listened and you questioned
Every single thing that I did
When you can't, can't, can't, can't, can't realize
The tears comes down and release
My love to you is true
A tattoo
That ain't ever coming off
I'll wait for the truth hits you
I'll take a loss at any cost
Well I borrowed some courage from you
Through confusion I've made it this far
You said I could have had everything
If I just looked at myself, at myself!
Yeah!
My love to you is true
A tattoo
That ain't ever coming off
I'll wait for the truth hits you
I'll take a loss at any cost (repeat chorus once)
...at any cost (x3)
You said protect me
And you left me
On Christmas Eve
I feel so empty
Don't call me
Don't stall me
Christmas Eve well she got up and left me
You broke my heart girl
You made me cry
We fell apart girl
I don't know why
I buy you a house
And a diamond ring
I buy you pretty much everything
You said protect me
And you left me
On Christmas Eve
I feel so empty
Don't call me
Don't stall me
Christmas Eve well she got up and left me
Punk rocker against a rich girl
She chased me then yea around the world
What you can't have you cannot kiss
You're gonna find out what ya missed
You said protect me
And you left me
On Christmas Eve
I feel so empty
Don't call me
Don't stall me
Christmas Eve well she got up and left me
You broke my heart girl
You made me cry
We fell apart girl
I don't know why
I buy you a house and a diamond ring
I buy you pretty much everything!
You said protect me
And you left me
On Christmas Eve
I feel so empty
Don't call me
Don't stall me
Christmas Eve well she got up and left me
Christmas Eve
She got up and left me
Now I'm all alone
Never seen it come back again, 'til it dragged my heart around
There was nothing coming in, and there was nothing to be found
See, I don't know, if i can go, through another day like this
America's judging it's favorite son and there ain't nowhere (missing?)
'Cause I've seen it, 'cause i know it,
'Cause it's the end of the world tonight
'Cause I've seen it, 'cause i know it,
'Cause it's the end of the world tonight
Take it down, br-br-break it down, 'cause it ain't coming back again
And the feeling of the rhythm drums, it sings like me
See, I don't like it, you know i ??, and the rhythm would make you aware
'Cause this is the end and i wish it was something, better than this
'Cause I've seen it, 'cause i know it,
'Cause it's the end of the world tonight
'Cause I've seen it, 'cause i know it,
'Cause it's the end of the world tonight
That's right!
Creeps burn and run their life too calm too windy
To form a wasteland
Atomic blow
A total nothing
Totaled completely
You filth's are discovered but you eyes are boiling
It's a Sick Sick World so what do you do kid?
Come on down, it's your turn, yeah it's your turn!
A night at the goat is the name of the band
A total giant glass ought to make the plan
This song's about when you go back-to-back
when you let out the dogs and your
mind is a stag
It's a Sick Sick World so what do you do kid?
Come on down, it's your turn, yeah it's your turn!
It's a Sick Sick World so what do you do kid?
The way that she moves well i was aroused
impowered impassioned by every move
it's cold outside we need a place to hide
go into the club to thaw out for the night
she's automatic so automatic the way that she moves
she asked me if I would stand by
her side like glue that I would till the end of the night
my head was spinnin' a million miles an hour
the chance I was takin' I get anxious around her
she put her head on my shoulder I started to hold her
Solidarity love and unity
Set me free with a bullet and a gun
You said it was nothing
I knew it was something
It was no surprisin' i saw you cryin?
About you
Said what went wrong
About you
Said you can't go on
About you
Said it's a long time gone
About you
Said your life's too long
Solidarity love and unity
Set me free with a bullet and a gun
Didn't see it coming
Your fears went hunting
9 millimeter
stops you running
About you
Now you're long time gone
About you
So what went wrong
Solidarity love and unity
I had i dream i was a vigilante sidekick
my name is tim im a lesser known character
I had a dream i was a vigilante sidekick
fighting crime in the streets together
Down in Oakland
off of west grand,
st joseph relief
a program
A good place were good people get food,
help your fellow man is a good thing to do
Government agency said
be afraid of me,
i shut your doors down it won't phase me
Wolverine came through left
the agent for dead, opened up the doors
back up everyone was fed
Do not bill the abandoned buildings,
it's nice to sleep when you've got a ceiling.
Neighborhood watch said we gotta put a stop,
can't have people livin' for free call the cops.
Here comes the SWAT team, and the M-16,
shoot the walls in, destroy the building.
Wolverine was sad and it made him mad,
Echoes of reggae comin' through my bedroom wall
havin' a party up next door but i'm sittin here all alone
two lovers in the bedroom and the other starts to shout
all i got is this blank stare and that don't carry no clout at all
destination unknown
ruby ruby ruby ruby soho
he's singin and she's there to lend a hand
he's seen his name on the marquee but she will never understand
once again he's leavin' and she's there with a tear in her eye
embraces with a warm gesture it's time, time to say goodbye
ruby's heart ain't beatin cause she knows the feelin' is gone
she's not the only one who knew there's somethin' wrong
little lover's in the distance as she wipes a tear from her eye
Took the 60 bus, out of downtown Campbell, Ben Zandito
He was on there he was waitin' for me
All the punk rockers and the moon stompers
Are out on the corners where they sparing for change
I started thinkin', you know I started drinkin'
You know I don't remember too much of that day
Somethin' struck me funny when we ran out of money
Where do you go now when your only 15
With the music execution and the talk of revolution
It bleeds in me and it goes
Give 'em the boot, the roots the radicals
Give 'em the boot, you know I'm a radical
Give 'em the boot, the roots, the reggae on my stereo
The radio was playin' Desmon Dekker was singin'
On the 49 bus as we climb up the hill
Nothin' incoming but the reggae drummin'
And we all come from unloving homes
Why even bother I pick up the bohle
Hey Mr. Bus Driver please let these people on
Rude girl carol was a mini-skirt girl
My blurry vision saw nothin' wrong
With the music execution and the talk of revolution
It bleeds in me and it goes
Give 'em the boot, the roots the radicals
Give 'em the boot, you know I'm a radical
Give 'em the boot, the roots, the reggae on my stereo
On my stereo
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah

Come on baby won't you show me what you got
I want your salvation
there's a neighborhood called blackhawk
where all the rich people hide
I was down on my luck working for the salvation army
The shelter is where i reside
Everyday we drive into blackhawk
and we pick up the offerings
Microwave, refrigerator for the suffering
Come on baby won't you show me what you got
I want your salvation
I can't believe these people live like kings
Hidden estates and diamond rings
I'm a rat out on a mission
I'm in your front yard under suspicion
Come on baby won't you show me what you got
Rwanda yeah your moon shines bright
Rwanda over planned genocide
Rwanda, won't you be strong like a lion
Tune in the transistor
And listen to the news
Cause once a week it hits ya
Heart broken and blue
It's the voice over Africa
so stop peregrination
So listen very closely to half a million dead souls
Rwanda yeah your moon shines bright
Rwanda over planned genocide
Rwanda, won't you be strong like a lion
It's complicated when facts come slow
Mass destruction mass confusion
Whats the difference to the orphan
Orphans of the dead
When no more machine guns strike and there's silence instead
Rwanda yeah your moon shines bright
Rwanda over planned genocide
Go!
Go!
Go!
Walk into the party, didn't know who you are,
Said quick quick on the living room floor,
All I know is about three fucking chords,
Drumkit, bass, and electric guitar.
We're headed out to another show,
Don't know which way it's gonna go,
Don't even think about it,
Don't even care,
When the roadblock's in the way, we're gonna run around it,
When the stop sign's in the way, we're gonna run through it all right,
All right,
When all the punks come out tonight!
Go to work, go to school, get a fucking job,
Sit at home like a fucking slob,
I prowl the street like I'm the fucking law,
All too crazy, tripped and crawl,
Depression can't cut me out of the music,
So I choose it,
I use it,
I won't fucking lose it!
We're headed out to another show,
Don't know which way it's gonna go,
Don't even think about it,
Don't even care,
When the roadblock's in the way, we're gonna run around it,
When the stop sign's in the way, we're gonna run through it all right,
All right,
When all the punks come out tonight!
We're not fucking around,
We're not fucking around,
We're not fucking around,

Tonight!

Charles Van Doren never seemed to want it
A 64,000 dollar question
It was rigged on a fix end of innocence
The original T.V. scandal
It's true, Your through....Fuck you!
A unique one, triggered implosion, outraged disgrace condemnation
Nine- hundred channels, one billion scandals
I've been hypnotized by all of you
It's true, Your through....Fuck you!
I've been hypnotized by all of you
