Adina lyrics

i want to go where the action is
i want to fly through the urban blight
i want to live like a shadow in the dark
and only move at night

a story bought a one story house that
let's the winter bleed
21 years old and no money

how did she know the roof would cave in
over and over again
beat up bruised a record that's broken
adina's crying again

beat up chevy with a trailer in town

Hyena lyrics

I'm money broke and it's no joke can't core use the rope this time (Hey !!)
nuckel up buckel up the ride's getting rough but i will not loose my mind (Hey !!)
i asked'em if i could come in and the first thing they said was no (Hey !!)
if i can't come in thats mean that i can't come back that means i got nowhere to go

[repeat 2x]
i'm a hyena fighting for lion share

Detroit lyrics

i didn't know what time it was until the sun went down
Detroit mild on the bus downtown
last night i was fighting on the street
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
i gotta good feeling everything's gonna be alright
some run some fight
i got a good feeling in a bad city tonight

Rats in the Hallway lyrics

knock knock
come in
you wanna fight
i'm gonna win
i'll take you out
in a minute
step in my flat
see what's in it

i live in the land of wellfare state
my flat used to be section 8
now it's a rat infested cocaine run
my whole worls plays like a broken drum

drunken bum
yeah yeah yeah
rats in the hallway again

get up get out go ahead and ride away
sit up our bed up your bed to lay

Another Night lyrics

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

Animosity lyrics

break down the fear
i got my animosity
i'm gonna breake it down

armageddon is coming so you better start running
cause the big wave is coming to the shore
no suprise that you see throu the lies
of the system that's rotten to the core

high tech survailance
paranoia and violence
keeping the city at a calm
break it down
tear it apart
the city's going off
like a bomb

break down the fear

Out of My Mind lyrics

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 theyç£â€“e selling

Whirlwind lyrics

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

Rejected lyrics

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...

Injury lyrics

excuse me while i put i knife out of my back
how could i ever trust a person like that
along side the slow is someone moving faster
behind the warm image is a cold cold bastard

corporate liberal bullshit ruling fucking class
take your fucking money and shove it up your ass
take your lies i've had enough of you
and all the shit that you put me through
i'm injured

injury

The Bottle lyrics

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

Trenches lyrics

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
pass out in a squat on mission

Holiday Sunrise lyrics

so i packed everything i owned
midnight christmas eve
a kid could feel alone
i drink my scotch
my mind goes astray
midnight christmas eve
starts out in a way
i cried when i had no shoes
'til i met the man with no feet

it's just a
holiday sunrise
i suddenly realized
i got no alibis
holiday sunrise

relatives of mine said
they were born again
fucked up world has made me born against

Unwritten Rules lyrics

kick the kick drum increase the weight of the sound
the dialog of maximum decibles is enough to move the fucking ground
i'm gonna amplify the rage of a class
that's thought inferior the message in the volume
this song a carrier

unwritten rules
rules understood
unwritten rules

boomin' out the speakers and amps in the hood
i like to drink beer play music and go to shows

Get Out Of My Way lyrics

Go ahead start causing trouble
Get outta my way get outta my way...
Don't want your lies and I don't want your
I don't see any fun
In getting fucked up around this place
I played as much as you

Get outta my way get outta my way

Rich kid rich kid get outta my hair

Get outta my way get outta my way

I'll sing what I'll sing
I'll wear what I'll wear

Get outta my way get outta my way

Antennas lyrics

You're selling sexism, you're selling racism
You're selling anything you get your fucking hands on
An understanding you gotta plan in
A presentation to advertisers who demand it

When you plan that
Your antenna's 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 you're the town man

Axiom lyrics

On the cusp of an explosion
I answer with evil that's the way that I play it
Street Turks multiple contusions
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

Black Derby Jacket lyrics

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

Blackhawk Down lyrics

Blackhawk down,
Blackhawk down,
Blackhawk down below

Blackhawk down,
Blackhawk down,
Blackhawk down below

There's a blackhawk down in Mogadishu,
American government issue

Blackhawk down,
Blackhawk down,
Blackhawk down below

Conflict in Somalia,
Never came to an end
Strife in Sudan,
Ongoing contention
Battle in Sierra Leone
Hostilities in The Congo,
Who drew up the coup
Explosions at zero,

Corruption lyrics

No God, no truce

A fire from the sky rains brimstone from above
A whole world implosion got too close to the sun
A vein from a power struggle explode into a bloody mess
Rupturing the nation's core blushing from the stress

The atheists get in line awaiting the coming destruction
Religious dogma corrupted and corrupter
With a man made of sin leads a full scale invasion

Dead Bodies lyrics

Dead bodies everywhere
Piles of blood, entrails and hair
I'm bleeding from the inside
From the armageddon outside

Disfigured and oblique
From the appetite that I seek
I'm a hungry cannibal
I'm a rabid animal
My remains are being scattered
I've been bludgeoned, I'm in pain
Stomach pains are coming
And they strike with demon speed

Reoccuring rotting dreams

Disgruntled lyrics

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

Don Giovanni lyrics

You're making enemies
Like Don Giovanni
You're making enemies
Like Don Giovanni
Don killed Anya's father in a brutal swordfight
The old man regrouped and came back from the dead
You're making enemies
Like Don Giovanni
You're making enemies
Like Don Giovanni
Well the old man came back from the dead and dragged
Don Giovanni to hell
So don't fuck with me..kid!

Golden Gate Fields lyrics

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

I Am Forever lyrics

I am forever is what he said
Lost in a dream he never had

Doors burst open, doors slam shut
The key to change is time

He said my dear mother, I let you down
No one wants to be a burden on a loved one

Doors burst open, doors slam shut
The key to change is time

Riding the freight train
All the while you're building the fuckin' tracks

It's Quite Alright lyrics

I can tell you how it'll go down
But only you can tell me how it'll end
All systems can stop right here
And all we are is pretend
So many things can be a mystery
And all we are seekin' is freedom
We realize Mr. Reality
I'm gonna be there to greet him

It's alright
It's quite alright with me

When ignorance manifests like that
It's hard to stop
Underdeveloped: don't lose your balance

Let Me Go lyrics

OK, check this out...

It aint impossible, it aint easy
Opportunities shiftin' here
So far the strategy aint workin'
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 lyin'
And then the truth can be hard to swallow
In a soap opera world leaders are cryin'

Correction, I need no direction
Let me go just one last time

Loki lyrics

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 craze, spewing words of madness

It can go either way, you never know
Conditioned to deceive and that's how he likes it
With all the guns going off, who can say no to the guy
Watch out, who's fuckin' next

'Cause Loki's playin' tricks again

Loki's playin' tricks again
x3

Meteor Of War lyrics

John brown set the tone he was a meteor in a guilty land
Abolitionist understand freedom to the despondent man
Grant said you're either one, a patriot or a traitor's son
It's a Sanguinary conclusion
a Sanguinary conclusion
Sanguinary conclusion..yeah
John brown, (John brown) John brown, (John brown) John brown, (John brown)

Not To Regret lyrics

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

Poison lyrics

Like Chaucer's
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
Under my skin like opium
I'll stare in their eye to annoy them
Well, they're poison
Yeah, they're poison

Admissions of liabilities
I'm livin' in my own private cold war
In a room full of spies
And I can't find the door

Some people are poison

Radio Havana lyrics

El Diablo is like a soundtrack
All concurrent playback
'57 chevy with the radio on
It's a sad song
That goes on and on

It's a fugitive of time Radio Havana
It's a fugitive of time Radio Havana

A friend that said you gotta make a choice
He's got the leather skin and the velvet voice
The New York Times read that it aint over yet
you can't forget, cause you'll never forget

Rattlesnake lyrics

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

Reconciliation lyrics

Reconciliation in what they already knew
Humanities lost when the powers vested in a few

Spread out like a million locusts covering the sun
Protagonists and infidels gonna speak out on the run
Deep rooted back and forth failed from both sides
Triggered a sudden excitement into the battle night

Shadow of Robin Island cloud the symbol of change
Nelson spent 18 years on Robin Island estranged

Rigged On A Fix lyrics

Charles Van Doren never seemed to want it
A 64,

Rwanda lyrics

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

Sick Sick World lyrics

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

Young Al Capone lyrics

In the army of Babylon I'm a young Al Capone
My self an outlaw in the eyes of the Lord
Good man lose and the bad man 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
