"Idolatrous Apostate"

"Idolatrous Apostate"



Tie muscle down on it
Die with your boots on
Got nothing but style
Run around red line
But it ain't no where
They feel like rated
All cider too
Turn around insane
Free wives to the wooden
His bones make do
My sin firing down
Five boys five days
Idolatrous

"If I Had An Exorcism"

"If I Had An Exorcism"



It's not like a you could feel just
Like what you want more metal, heh!
Hangin' from your neck like
Feels too good to be real
Like somebody took a coathanger
Munched it and tore it from the sign
stin...stern...st'nning
numzph-numonh, bleeargh.

"In The Rain"

"In The Rain"



I don't like you
Not a little thing about you
There's a flower all around you
In the rain
Images of peace
And now your pretty face
Things that give me grins
In the rain
Tropical decision
It was a mystical incision
Thought you were in prison
In the rain
As you wander with the kid
With a presage and a snip
All the way to Memphis
In the rain

"Influence Of Atmosphere"

"Influence Of Atmosphere"



That point
You're the adult to reign
And seeing you
Take it away

I look into your glass eye, take it
By surprise

"Isabella"

"Isabella"



I'm thinkin fay
Cause I'm diggin the ray
Cause I'm dee
And I'm sinkin, dance, dance
Plan my way
To steal the clothes
Weigh them down
Never filled up a
Way

"Islamic Bomb"

"Islamic Bomb"



The sun sets on the desert
Of Thee Evil Empire
The seeds of Mass Destruction
Are still very much alive
All we got were lousy weapons
Piled up from the Cold War
The free market wrecked our country
To the black market we go
Hand grenades way up to nuke toys
From Afghanistan to Latvia
We will sell to anyone
Who wants the Bomb

So the conga line of missiles
Dances out of storage sites
Past the checkpoints left abandoned
Kuz the guards all took a bribe
And on all the hot spots
Gettin' tired of being stomped on
By great satans and their neighbors
This will change if we have the bomb
Spread gift-wrapped do-it-yourself kits
Pay our debts to the World Bank
Before you can say Islam
Before you can say Saddam
Who's got the bomb? Islamic Bomb

For a real Axis of Evil
Keep an eye on free enterprise
Like our top secret project
At a warehouse right in town
No one here knows all the details
We just ship components out
Selling to the highest bidder
If we don't, someone else will

To third parties in Third countries
You can't stop what you can't find
This is what we wanted all along
Now the arms race can go on and on
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1

Piss ant little countries
They were getting in our way
Trying to claim their soil's riches
Tellin us we have to pay
So we tricked their wacky rulers
To go wipe each other out
Russian Roulette regime change
In a sea of mushroom clouds
Dying peasants slave at gunpoint
All their oil is finally ours

Life will never be
Quite like it was
Hide in our Green Zones
Til Jesus comes
But we fixed you all
With Thee Islamic Bomb

"It's Shoved"

"It's Shoved"



For the love maze for me to show you
Look show
Can't even handwrite
I got somethin'
You got holy doll
I'm a leather man
Guarentee
Then when we caught a big pack of bad cats
Always raising paws
Always chucking tails
Kiss that little head
Make 'em Demerol
Eat some Petromalt
So they see

"Jacksonville"

"Jacksonville"


You know, I don't think this is going very well.
I mean, like 10 percent of the audience wants to fight.
The other 90 percent are totally bored.
So it's like, what the fuck am I doing up here, you know.

You know when I am sitting around at home in Hollywood, usually what I'm saying to myself is how much we suck compared to all the great bands from Jacksonville.
I'm thinking how much my life sucks compared to what it would be like if I just lived in Jacksonville.
Unfortunately, I'm exiled in California.

And you guys are in this hot bed of entertainment, called Jacksonville.
So I think without any further ado, we will continue by being completely bored ourselves.

Oh, I'm so damn lonely

...AND I HATE EVERYBODY!

[x6]
And we hate everyone of you!

[x8]
FUCK YOU!

AH!

[x4]
We hate you all and want you to die

[x4]
FUCK YOU!

[x4]
We hate you all and want you to die

[x8]
Die!

"Jew Boy Flower Head"



Liar
Lies on and anyway
Leader
He cannot forget
The world needs now
And anyway I hate it
Leave it on the floor
The seer
Lies on and anyway
Maybe
Attach it to the wall
The world needs now
And anyway the crosses
It's later than you think

We all need
An old and all
Lately
He cannot forget
Holding out
And everywhere
I seen it
And we can all belong
The wheel
Sized up and everything
And feeling
Back against the wall
The world is now
A motor, yeah
The native
We are not alone
