| "The Static God"
Ah, pardon me, do you have a cigarette
For me, I think?
I don't know, I don't know
What's it like?
I'm tuning in, addressing an urge
Do you satisfy me?
What's it like? Laugh at the rubble
What's it like?
On the battleground
Lashing me, blood-soaked rags
Are the cl |
|
I don't know, I don't know
What's it like?
I'm leaning in, into the whip
Does it satisfy me?
What's it like? Close to the cannon
What's it like?
On the battleground
Oh, pardon me, do you have a cigarette
For me, I think?
I don't know, I don't know
What's it like?
I'm tuning in, addressing an urge
Do you satisfy me?
What's it like? Laugh at the rubble
What's it like?
On the battleground
"Nite Expo"
Night flakes, speed freaks, squeeze into tight place
For God's sake, go and try
Prosthesis masquerade, they all compete
Nighttime exposition
Jump up, lay down, roll around boiling
Make your home in dirt
Let go, overflow, you won't need it
Obligations hurt, alright
Peel back your face and make haste
For the underground crawl space
Fill up on rubber smoke, hold it, then choke
Lay back and let go
"Animated Violence"
Old is warrior, drink the poison
I am warrior, crush your head in
Who is at the door blasting life away?
I am warrior, feast on family
Why is warrior swinging bludgeon?
How does warrior swallow dynasty?
And woe is warrior, cracking armor
Swollen belly up on dismal vista
Who is the warrior?
Who is the warrior?
Who is the warrior?
Who is the warrior?
Who is the warrior?
"Keys To The Castle"
This parade of candied people
Turns the bend in castle's steeple
Flood the tower with your body
Fling yourselves from upper belfry
Let's witness the whole occasion
Piles of bodies fill the garden
Smash the hedgerow with their plummet
Stop with panic, ugly banquet
Floating in the vile moat, yeah
Crack their skulls upon the cobbles
Ringing home their lemming's message
Fill the streets with awful messes
Please hand over keys to castle
Make the change without the hassle
Start a new crop of good people
Lock the door to castle's steeple
"Jettisoned"
You can tool around the horn now, maybe
The people never say hello
Who is for indifference, honey?
I'm not sure they know, know
You can keep your nose buried deep, yeah
Pinched inside a vice
Who likes sugar in their coffin?
The underground is twice as nice
You can fool around the horn now, baby
The people never say hello
Who is for indifference, honey?
I'm not sure they know, know
You can keep your nose all buried deep, yeah
Pinched inside a vice
Who likes sugar in their coffin?
The underground is twice as nice
"Cadaver Dog"
One is pursuant of other men's themes
One is the slaver of scenes
One is the ruin of other men's dreams
So grab your heads, axe has appeal
One is the maker of ulcers of life
You don't always you get what you need
I hear a whistle, it comes from the sky
So run and hide your family
We've intercepted your message to God
There is no help on the wing
Your request sticks to the ceiling, a dream
And now it's dust on the floor
So, all of you young ones, you sniff the debris
And catalog disaster and grief
Put it all in Athenaeum of woe
Please, don't follow but lead
"Drowned Beast"
Open up the vault and let us breathe
Air is the only thing I need
I asked the major, "Sir, have we food?"
"Soon, we will feed"
Gazing out the window to the sea
Underneath, the surface stirred the beast
Foam was high up, dancing on the breeze
Soon, we will feast
"Open up the monster", crowd demands
And from the belly, steaming, came a hand
"We're ever so thankful that you're brave"
But you'll be on our table, just the same
We've launched attack with only food in mind
The beast did lurch but he eventually died
Foam was high up, dancing on the breeze
Soon, we will feast
