Electric Fence
02:55
|

Government's walls are coated with blood
The rich need power
Satisfaction of previous wars
Add heat to the fallout shower
Electric fence
They do not care
Electric fence
Is the electric chair
Tie 'em up and increase the power
Fry your morals into his head
His crime wasn't justified
Another life left for the dead
Electric fence
They do not care
Electric fence
Is the electric chair
Just like Jesus crucified
Killed in the name of their pride
Death has gone high tech
With the symbol of oppression on their necks
Electric fence
They do not care
Electric fence
Is the electric chair
Deadly microcosm of tradition
Man's relation to earth growing smaller
Government is a symbol of death
Look at who represents the dollar
Electric fence
They do not care
Electric fence
- Brings on the nightmare

The Boat Song
03:16
|

There soon may be a killing
Of all forms of life
The superpowers put mankind
On the edge of a knife
They spend so much money
On weapons that don't even talk
How can you sit back and watch
There must be a stop!
We are very short of time
People are getting scared
The things man do for a dime
Is the nightmare
The starving will be at your front door
And radiation in your backyard
There will be no place to hide
Cause the sun will inflict scars!

Marriage
03:36
|

So you want to get married
He's the perfect guy
He has lots of money
And he drives a fancy car
You can't wait 'til he puts
That ring on your little finger
Society
Has got you in a trap
Do you really believe in God?
Do you really believe in government?
So you really want to marry this guy
You really love him that much
You're gonna sign your name
On the bottom of a piece of paper?
You're gonna sign your life away!
Society
Has got you in a trap
Do you really believe in God?
Do you really believe in government?

Broken Heart
02:23
|
|||
Push the needle in your vein
Sink into your deadly pain
In your mouth with that fancy pill
More and more you can't get your fill
Shove some white shit up your nose
Need some help as your anxiety grows
Broken heart with martini dry
What a romantic way to die
You're obsessed you've got a one-track mind
Can't be released from your deadly bind
One more smoke just one more drink
Ain't it fun you can hardly think
All your friends they mean real well
But face it folks, life is hell
Broken heart with suicide
What a romantic way to die

Circus Of The Stars
03:12
|

Shot out of a cannon
Circus of the stars
You can party on down
And you won't be alarmed
Turn on your T.V.
And see some nice places
You don't care if it's a charade
'Cause you look up to these faces
And I still can't believe
Centuries old
These "people" take their names
And I still can't believe
How the essence of life
Could be shot down
Like an eagle in flight
What a nice world
Fast cars and bikinis
Too bad it isn't real
Eating sportaginis
The cops are real stylish
The latest in the trend
They really care about human feelings
And what comes around that bend
The cops you see on Miami Vice
Are not real people
They are products of a producer's head
And his need to make money
When you turn on Dynasty
You'll see what I mean
This is not reality
It's a money maker's dream
And I still can't believe
Centuries old
These "people" take their names
And I still can't believe
How the essence of life
Could be shot down
Like an eagle in flight

Nazi Parties
01:04
|

Get your hand stamped at the door
You can play, don't care what for
Hope your music ain't too scary
'Cause if it is we're Hitler's navy
Nazi party -- one way street
Nazi party -- ain't we neat
Nazi parties -- birthday boy
Nazi parties -- it's a fascist ploy
Put your dollar in for beer
Well why not? Adolph's here
He looks so pretty dressed in black
We stabbed you in the back
Nazi party -- it's what you lack
Nazi party -- so don't come back
Nazi parties -- swastika
Nazi parties!!!!
Put your dollar in for beer
Well why not? Adolph's here
Swazi mounted on the door
Madonna's dancing on the floor
Hey Nazi what's your second name?
When the world blows up, you're to blame
Hey Nazi and your fascist kind
I won't conform -- I'm not blind!

New Land
03:11
|
|||
I'm an outlaw on my way to
Peace, love, and Anarchy
The more I understand
The meaning of the sun
My new lands detach from government slavery
Violent man kills Indians
Then rapes Mother Earth for profits
Man wastes the fruit of life
Then he burns up its pits
Land, wise bird on trees of liberty
Discover life, not man's insanity
Your mind ain't a jail
You hold the key
Let's blow ourselves up with
The soil of the heart
The great plains like ahead
It's a new land

PJD Theme
01:10
|
|||
A family town by a polluted sea
Authority drove the juveniles crazy
Now we won't let this town be
If the cops ask: "Who are we"
Tell 'em:
PJD (4X)
We have no ego
And we have no money
Spray paint and skateboards
Set us free!
PJD (4X)
Parents send some away
But the tradition is here to stay
We've got your fucking town at bay
You want to join in?
Yes you may!
PJD (4X)

Day Of The Dead
02:33
|
|||
The day of the dead
Ain't no propaganda on TV
The sky glooms red -- this is reality
Suffering animals with exposed bones
Trees ablaze become hell's tombstones
The day of the dead
Death's bedtime story
The books that were read
Were of power and glory
Now two suns inhabit the galaxy
Closing another door
Maybe the next life form will see
And not want anymore...

Rules
03:05
|

You tell me how to act and
You tell me what to do
Let me tell you right now
With your rules I'm through
I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do
Regardless of what you say
So why do you keep telling me
To do things your way?
I'm not a machine
I'm not your little boy
I ain't one of your followers
I'm not gonna fight your wars
I don't think the way you think
And I don't believe in what you say
I ain't gonna follow your rules
And look out 'cause I ain't walkin' away
You give me all these rules
Yet you tell me to be myself
When I try to stand up
You tell me to sit down
You tell me how to act and
You tell me what to do
Let me tell you right now
With your rules I'm through

Deadly Game
03:01
|
|||
The boys are givin' you problems
It's evident to me
You're gonna solve it with your guns
That's the way it's got to be
The boys are givin' you problems
Getting real rough
You try to stop them, you say:
"Men we must be tough"
If you ever looked in the mirror
You'd see what I see
Your life is a contradiction
Hypocrisy
How can you stop violence
With a loaded gun
You become just like them
Intelligence you shun
I see a picture
It's on my TV
"America brings down terrorists,
Film at 3"
Then you turn around
Invade the next door
That's bullshit, you became what you hate
You started a war
How can you stop violence
By being its source
You say a lot of words
But you'll never change the course
How can you keep playing your deadly game
Your terrorists and yourselves
Are both to blame

Leader Of The Pack
03:44
|

So you say you're
The leader of the pack
A man among men and that's that
You have the power, you have authority
You have a gift and people listen
Well, I think you're full of shit
You're a leader? What leader?
No one leads me
You stand upon your stage
People blindly follow your every word
Do you ever think of all the people
Suffering while you're throwing your
Ego around?
I've got something to say,
I'm gonna say it right now:
You're in the newsroom,
You're a big man
You've got something to say
And you're real smart
You're a politician, President of the U.S.
You think you're above me?
Who gave you the right?
Why should I listen to you,
Whenever I try to speak
You fuck me over
Can't you see that while you're up there
On your papal heights
Spreading the facts around
That as long as you're up there
And I'm down here
There will never be freedom
There are others who have brains,
Who can think, who can talk!

Summer School
02:10
|

During the school year
I couldn't do the work
I didn't understand it
I am no jerk
Now they got me goin' to school
On my own break
I am always givin', but I never take
Life isn't a game
It's school that is played
Books give teachers lies
Then they are relayed
I feel like an animal locked up in a cage
Always twistin' and turnin'
To the next page
Freedom is a thing
Which must not be rusted
But whenever I polish it up
I just get busted

The sun is shining -- It's black inside
The sun is shining -- It's black inside
The sun is shining -- It's dark inside
The sun is shining -- It's death inside
Concrete hell, waste in the air
Expensive people, it isn't fair
An engine sound -- sweet perfume
A fatal cry -- no more room
People dying left and right
Another crowd another fight
A button is pressed, a bomb goes off
A blinding light, a final cough
No more lies that we can give and take
The sun is shining -- It's black inside
The sun is shining -- It's black inside
The sun is shining -- It's dark inside
The sun is shining -- It's death inside
Concrete hell, waste in the air
Expensive people, it isn't fair
An engine sound -- sweet perfume
A fatal cry -- no more room
People dying left and right
Another crowd another fight
A button is pressed, a bomb goes off
A blinding light, a final cough
No more lies that we can give and take
(It's too late to awake)
