*** All American Badass ***

Going out on Friday night drinking with your good friends
work for the man do the best you can to make it to the weekend
everybody's comin out its gonna be a good time
just forget all the bullshit and everything will be fine

Get to the show things start to go and everybody's swaying
drinks in the air but we don't care cuz the band has started playing
a guy walks by with a look in his eye and we know what he's doin
he's just out to find a bout and faces he can ruin

Fight fight fight and ya know it's right cuz you're always fuckin wasted
you're gonna go to the punk rock show to rearrange some faces
fight fight fight and you think its right testosterone abuser
you're gonna go to the punk rock show but you're just a fuckin loser

Don't look now I heard a pow and there's a girl a crying
you let one fly and hit her in the eye and on the floor she's lying
your bros all thought you were pretty cool when they saw you deck her
I thought you knew what steroids do to your drunken little pecker

*** Apathetic ***

how can you call this land we walk on free two centuries of deception filled
with ignorance and greed a system put in place dollars bear their face equal
rights those who can afford to pay content to believe what they say they say
democracy I scream a scam big bucks from big business buy uncle sam no
conspirasy it's apathy we the people can't seem to just open our eyes content to
believe all their lies hey they gotta go how can we take back what was ours you
gotta know that they are doing to you kids die for their country but they can't
buy beer they'll outlaw what's natural motive unclear laws are put into place
their morals in my face but we got an ace up our sleeve opression plants
rebellion's seed now the time has come to say fuck what they've said what
they've done yeah we're young and dumb but as a sume we are worth more than one

*** Betty ***

you did me over played me to the end you took everything i had no feelings left
to spend you're not a friend you're just a fiend it's time I opened my eyes to
set you my darling don't deserve my sympathy you broke my heart spit on
grandma's grave tore my life apart never left the same before you waste more of
my time let me give you little piece of my mind... I'm sending you down the road
& I'll be fine... ruhibonol you gave to me left me in a tub of ice a note & no
kidney you soiled my sheets & you skinned my cat you stole my teeth & you pawned
my gat

*** Booze Cruise ***

We hit the road we had ten hours left on our drive
Level of sanity going out the window
Who knows what lays ahead
And all I see is the endless headlights flying away

You're sick of me I'm sick of you
lets pull off and just talk this one through
To turn around to walk away you'll be leaving
but I'll be here to stay

One way to go the direction undetermined
Rand McNally goes flying out the window
With empty bottles and broken spirits
the endless headlights are flying away

When I was younger I leapt at the chance
Now that I'm older I wonder
If I had it to do all over again would I do anything different
Way too much time and bullshit on my mind
I feel like I'm falling to pieces

The smoke surrounds your head
you don't wanna be there
I can hear you when you're falling

*** Bridges ***

How can you tell me this land is free two party
system hypocrisy
Trust in them with our lives they're still the ones
who decide your fate
your destination who's in control of our lives
Burn your bridges to the ground forget all the
freedom that you've found
I can see them from miles away but I don't hear
what they say do you

All those suits on capital hill they're on my mind
they're making me ill
Important thing is what they're doing I don't really
care I don't really give a fuck who they're screwing
Do you believe in your freedom stand up for you rights
Do what you choose
Burn your bridges to the ground forget all the
freedom that you've found I can see them from
miles away but I don't hear what they say
Do you ?

*** B-Side ***

I know exactly where you've been but I don't fear you
I know it's harder to give in but I don't hear you
I feel a change something's in the air it's all around my head
I know you try to put the blame on me I throw it back instead

So here we go again kickin it with friends burn
another joint and get right to the point
falling on my own got no place to go wait for me
outside I'll take you for a ride in my life on the b side

I'll never leave its just the place for me a home away from home
Another down a couple more to go the only way I've known

Don't wait for me I'll meet you there if I'm not with
you I don't care
When everything just goes your way and it's supposed
to stop you but you just can't say

*** Chevy Novacaine ***

The less I feel is the less I know
I don't mean to tell you cause now I've gone out in my mind
And my mind aches the way you do
I just wanna see it through cause all I have is when I go alone
The less I feel is the less on top
I don't mean to stop when everything is going fine
The fort I build is where I die
and I don't mean to make you cry but all I have is when I go away

I'll practice in my room
you'll watch the things that I do
I'll practice in my room
When I leave don't ya know I'm gonna miss you

The less I feel is the less on top
I don't mean to make you stop now that I'm not by your side
And all this time I'm wasting now
I just can't be headed south
got to do it in my own damn way

*** Crew Cut Chuck ***

oh lemme tell ya bout 2 guys i know
ol' crew cut chuck an afro joe
well crew cut sang and joe played sax
collectin their money in a hat
well the rent was due and the food was gone
ol' crew cut knew it was time to move on
(...)
well they packed their bags
and they left town
doing their damndest
to make some new ground
well they packed their bowls
and they smoked mass
doing their damndest
to kick fuckin' some ass

well their first gig was wild and rough
bunch of rowdy punks thinkin they were tough
fights broke out out and folks got mad
then crew cut chuck and joe looked bad
crew cut chuck jumped off stage, kicked some ass
nearly threw a man through the glass
well that was right and they could not stay
because the police came and took them awwwaaaaay

*** Cup O'Tea ***

you don't know where im going
you ask me where i've been
you wish you couldn't understand
i'm gonna fight this 'till the end
local girls and you won't see the problem's not just you and me
help me out i need a plan you've got to understand
why do you put me down for who i am and what i do
i am just a person trying to live my life just like you
you got your fancy suit yeah you got your caviar
well im just a punk with a microphone and a guitar

reality
sobriety
anxiety
it's not a cup of my tea

soberness
awareness
environmental madness
you try to be

baggy pants
stupid hats
talkin' 'bout their loaded gats
they're wannabes
work all day sleep all night
they don't know what it's like
to fight through your face

it's not my cup of tea
so don't talk trash to me

how can you step up to me and tell me how to look
trying to tell me how to dress or even how to cook
who are you to judge what i do in my own home
who are you to say what i can and cannot grow
why do you control my life and my own property
everything i have and own cannot be taken easily
you always tell me what to do and what to say
now it's time to stand up and do it my own way

*** Days Away ***

That's me staring out your window different man than I was before
I was scared with no hesitation kept me running for the door
When I spoke well my words fell away yeah
into something that I can't deny
I was confronted by a never ending circle washed me up to see the lie
In my mind that was ever so elusive hidden deep
beneath a plastic shine I had to wonder if I'd ever
really figure out what it was I was trying to find

So along was I ever really thinking did I ever
really understand I was covered by a wave of
confusion showing in my shaking hands tonight
I was in situation did I wanna just take control
or run but I never checked my options still just
laying silent in the sun

Days away
The one mistake that I made
Days away
Coming in the air to save me now

*** Depleted Salvo ***

How can you justify your pain
when everyone has felt the same
how can you walk around so dead
with good days gone and more ahead

With one look you take the idle minds that
lay before you and give something they can touch and they can feel
and in the end you'll have the memories that
few could dream so with these words I say
can't you see that your life's just begun

How can you let the days go by with no excuse no alibi
How can you fall when you don't climb
the fear of hights has left you blind

*** Destro ***

I've got a thing about destruction
I've got an appetite for pain
I wanna watch it all just burn down
'cuz well this town's so lame

I see it all just float away now
I watch it all go up in smoke
We've got a blah blah something something
cuz well this town's a joke
I gotta see you when everything's gone

chorus:
watch it fall watch it burn down watch it burn down watch it burn
we'll take this city to the ground
watch it fall watch it burn down watch it burn down watch it burn
we'll take this city to the ground
(your home town)

it's time to talk of revolution
get off the couch and start the fight
i like it when everything's fucked up
cuz well it feels so right
I wanna see you when everything's gone

(chorus)

I've got a thing about destruction
I've got an appetite for pain
I wanna see it all just burn down
cuz everything is just the same

(chorus)

*** Distress ***

*** Easy Cheese ***

If I had a dollar for every time she was mad
I'd buy California invite my friends and I'd make it my pad
If I had a peso for every time she's sad
wake up ya lazy pile and get your ass up outta my bed
I'd buy a private plane and fly around the world
eat at all the best restaurants and hang out with hot girls

But I know I'm stuck with you and there's nothing I can do
So I take your hand and say
Stay with me stay with me please stay with me girl
I know ya wanna slap my face but please stay with me girl

Girl I know it's all my fault and I'm just a dirt bag

So I'll take your hand and say
Stay with me stay with me please stay with me girl
I know ya wanna kick my ass but please stay with me girl
Stay with me stay with me please stay with me girl
You're the one with the pretty face so please stay with me girl

*** Econoline ***

I heard you call my name but now it's not the same when i hear your voice half
way across the
country locked up in the van you'll never understand this hole inside me I have
got responsibilities you have got them too I'm trying but what am I supposed to
do every time i drift off in your blue thinking about the angels voice on the
phone I get that sinking feeling I'm never going home sometimes I let myself get
so down I can barely hold my head up to say I'm alive and well and I'm coming
home someday I'm on the outside looking in at what you said to me your words
soft spoken in dream another night I saw your face you smiled at me just an
illusion it may seem... get it out of my head and so I'm stranded here and
there;s so much more to fear but i know it will be over someday everytime i
think about your soft smile dreaming about the girl i need to see i feel a bit
uneasy the dark is upon me sometimes i myself be afraid if the next days going
to fall and then looking in at what you said to me your soft spoken in a dream
another night alone I saw your face you smiled at me !
just an illusion it may seem... get it out of my head

*** Falling Down ***

i come around but i don't see ya
its kinda hard when your already gone
my eyes are numb
bloodshot and heavy
the voices silent but approaching me soon
he's got your name
he's got your number
just one more slip and he'll be dragging you on
i feel the pain
oh i see the answer
the voices ring out like the siren of song

chorus:
you're gone when you stop believing
when its hard to sleep at the end of the day
move on, don't try to get even
looking hard just to find a new end
cause it's hard to die
when you're already dead

just when i can't quite remember
just when i can't quite recall
the day we met upon a cold december
the day we met and it started to fall

(chorus)

*** The Gentleman ***

What do you think of me do you really want to see a piece of me that I hide
something that's hard to find what's behind your smile is it really worth my
while what's beneath your ton-bed skin open up and let me in do you really want
to feel something that is so unreal do you really want to be the one and only
one for me when we go to sleep tonight I'll have different goals in sight tell
you what you want to hear have another drink my dear I'm not going to try to
hurt you I'll be honest kind and true I'll take you out and treat you right like
a decent man would do now i got you in my grasp do not fear my checkered past

I'll take you out and treat you right like a decent man would do gonna modify my
behavior to make you think I'm your savior n!

*** Goleta ***

*** Hound Bound ***

I mix it up I wash It down now
I guess it's all I ever learned to do when I'm with you

last chance second nature
I see a road that leads right to your door. do I want more?

now I'm hearin everybody talk and then I ask myself
what exactly am I supposed to do?

yes I'm leavin
yes I'm leavin you behind
I'm still believing
what we had was really never mine

lookin back a blank expression
penetrated silence into me
and I'm startin to bleed

what do I need?
who do I talk to?
confidence is long since passed away
but I'm here to say

now I see the people walk by (I watch them pass)
coroded minor notes
playin in the back end of my mind

yes I'm leavin
yes I'm leavin you behind
I'm still believing
what we had was really never mine

*** Macho Nachos ***

Lost sight of all you dreamed of
the force that swept you away
the leaves were changing and the tree was rearranging
the season had swallowed the day
you want everything
unfair it may seem your eyes have been closed for so long
we tried to make the break
what about give and take
some times will come when you are wrong

(Chorus):
I sense the new day has fallen
I see the trouble in your eyes
the tree will fall
I'm not crying at all it's no suprise...
Your jaded eyes

I hope you found the road you wanted
I could not find the words to say
the lies were spoken and the promises broken
a wave of illusion dismay
you want everything
unfair it may seem your will has been gone for so long
we tried to make a break
what about give & take
the rights not outweighing the wrong

(Chorus) 2X

*** Mary Melody ***

I've got this thing about you now I tried to
understand but baby let me show you how
you changed my life the day you showed up
at my door

I've got this notion in my head if I go forward then I
jump back again into my routine of misery
I try harder just to get along today can't see things
through got just one chance left and I'm barely
hanging on what can I do

When I'm with you it's all I got my forbidden
pleasure and a life of smoking pot
that's who I am and I can't change the stops have been
removed but then our lives are still the same again

Our days on earth are short I know with a little new
direction I can find out where to go and maybe when
I get there baby I'll see you

Oh Mia just wanna see ya 'cause you're my left
footed girl oh baby just don't say maybe 'cause you're
my left footed girl

*** Medium Uunwell ***

in a world where logic and proportion dies the dark side laughing as it lights
the night with its evil eyes it comes around when you are least expecting it to
strike it grabs you by the neck and takes your soul with all its might the
voices haunting me the fear is here come around and see no slumber anymore
demons in disguise knocking at my door a small piece of advice... ignore! my
head is hurting my eyes are growing cold the strength increases when it fired a
shot into its hold the burning version of a man whose lost his will to live the
fight is over when there is nothing left to have or give

*** Mike Booted Our First Song So We Recorded This Instead ***

you roam in the hallway
stop right in and start to go
your heart is pounding
feel the wind and it's time to go
never thinkin' 'bout the move that you're makin'
only thinkin' 'bout the line that you're takin'
always bringing all your problems in the water
did you know i had sex with your daughter
nowhere to go
you got nowhere to go
you got nowhere to go
you got nowhere to go
we all have our problems you got nowhere to go

*** Monkeys ***

Monkeys watch out for them monkeys those crazy big guys drinking downtown
Monkeys watch out for them monkeys
They'll knock you right off your feet onto the ground
They'll take pleasure being hormonally insane
They'll find solace knocking you right upside the brain

*** Mum's The Word ***

Well approxamtion of the situation tends to bend
When you have too much to drink and you piss off your friends
You can't talk and you can't walk and you don't know your name
You find yourself attracted to a very ugly dame

The booze has filled your consciousness
And your dick is in your hand
And you don't know who the fuck is in your bed

*** Nobody Wins At The Laundromat ***

when you think that you know someone
they claim to be your friend
a blackened wick is all that remains
when the verdict has been said

with no legs left to stand on
no truth to call your own
like a tired soldier slowly dying
the gun that fired the shot was your own

now i see you lying in the bed you chose to make
backstabber
hows it feel now to live the life
i've always known was fake

trying harder just to realize
what the hell was goin on
i saw you lookin' in the shadows
don't you know i'm strong?

i've got my own intuitions
i've got my own beliefs
and when you try to toy with nature
you'll be falling with the leaves

and now it's all beginning
sail the ship you chose to build
you won't see me crying
washed my hands clean
and now i see you lying in the bed you chose to make
backstabber
how's it feel now to live the life
that i've always known was fake

*** No Hope ***

Take a bottle, drink it down your eyes are burning red your gonna end up in the
ground now you're fallen you can't hond on you got no hope you're fucking on
dope your dreams are all but gone you do not seem to care it makes no sense to
me everytime you try to take a look you still can't see the you've monster

fun? you ain't going nowhere you got no chance to see there's no way home I know
it's hard to live that way I know it's hard to break the daily chain its in you
head pshychosomatic wake up one day you're an addict you ain't going nowhere you
got no chance to see there's no way home

*** No Se' ***

my mind's locked up in a world that
i don't know

i think i'll lose control
staring out my window and it feels fine

well... i'm sending all my signals
but i stiffen so im long

that i do not have a home
i said my month in up in armour

say my month in up in armour
but i do not have a way

things are happening
so really do we ever live so fast
theres a concert
oh but what a fucking blast
my bags are packed in all rugged up theres one thing left to say
i'll make you take the fall then im doin it my own way

my mind's locked up in a world that
i don't know
the end is coming soon
i think i'll lose control

a re you happy working mornings

when your high?

here we go were back again
in the same rut withthe same friends
doin it like we did the year before
ya got no money got no car,
got no woman so there you are
your empty, sold out and depressed

well you can run and you can hide
from the trouble that is deep inside
your master of your own destiny and fame
things to do
gotta place to go
gotta cut the line
gotta make the next show
gotta make everything work out alright

what do we have to say for ourselves...

*** One Shot ***

Poor man cry out to his god his dying and hungry rich man have a heart attack
worrying about his money he alienates himself from his family and points the
blame in some other direction the other never had no one he only needed
affection from one end of the world to another I hear them say they need to find
a piece of inner protection a remedy to take their hurt away for in their on
minds they failed you see them fallen one shot left at redemtion has got them
calling

*** Popcorn ***

another starry night I lay down by the evening fire take a look back at today
down to the waters edge I let myself fall back in the waves will wash it away
another year is gone and I know it's been so long I'm still around and it's okay
my body's aching the time it's taking don't believe I've got another chance to
say I'm gonna make it today I walk back slowly to the sand and lay my head down
thinking about what there is to do the night sky high above the land is keeping
me safe the fire in the distance too

*** Road Rash ***

Take a walk outside it's a nice day for a drive automotivation
the air is getting clear and the getting near for us to roll
gotta watch my style cause god it's almost over
got a little more room to try it hopefully
I've walked this earth for twenty years and now my mind is floating... out to sea

gonna hit the van man you just don't understand total aggravation
rolling down the highway doing ninety going my way in control
gotta watch those corners in the stretch of danger
a problem could arise eventually
I've walked this earth for twenty years and now my mind is floating.... out to sea

every time I look into the north wind
I can't find meaning just a rhyme
I don't know but I've been told that good things come with time...
Let's go!

*** Shaving Your Life ***

Early come one winter's morning I packed my
bags and said goodbye I knew my mind was made up
and then she cried and asked me why
I had to run I heard the world calling my name
had to take a chance had to take a chance
and get away

Wake up to a different point of view look to my
better half but I don't see you
5000 miles away I left a life of ignorance I did
not understand but to me it makes more sense
our lives go on
while we procrastinate
feeling okay
watching as the blue sky turns to gray
got nothing to say

Later on a new spring morning I felt my
strength come back around I knew I'd come
full circle left with the wisdom that I found I
had to run I heard my home calling my name
back to a better place back to somewhere I
knew I could say

Watch days go by
while we procrastinate
feeling okay
funny how it all turns out when you start to
try I don't know where to run

I see that place in front of you
The things that I thought were not true
I see the fires burning you
Got Nothing

*** Shut The Door ***

when you leave
shut the door
don't wanna to talk about it... anymore
when you're gone
don't forget to leave the light on
when you go
please say goodbye to me
will i go alone
or will you stand by me
and follow your convictions
you won't try when you know how
5 years to this day
and still you walked away
and left me here cold blinded
i hear you but i can't make out the words

when you leave
shut the door
don't wanna want to talk about it... anymore
when you're gone
don't forget to leave the light on
when you go please say goodbye to me

how can you see it through
or will you turn your head on
everything stood for
the dreams that we once shared
and now we turn the page
another day goes by
we move in new directions
i hear you but i cant make out the words yeah

when you leave
shut the door
don't want to talk about it... anymore
when you're gone
don't forget to leave the light on
when you go
please say goodbye to me

*** Something's Wrong At The Playground ***

well grade school never meant that much to me
i started smokin' at the age of 13
back of the class thats where we'd hang around
but they could not bring us down
and now they're on the run
little johnny's mad and hes got a gun
just kids having fun
you can't deny
no alibi
i saw you back when you were just like them
i know it's true

chorus:
and we all fall down together
ashes to ashes as we burn this fucker down
on the merry go round the kids are learning
yeah there's something wrong at the playground.

well high school was just a holding cell for me
with no freedom as we learn democracy
spent most of my days in the back lot
a cherry burning bright but a future that's not
and now were on the run
try not to think a lot and just keep on having fun
no responsibility
you can't deny
no alibi
you were just like them i saw you back then
i know it's true

(chorus)

*** S.O.S. ***

*** The Belltower ***

while ya go down that stronghold like ya know ya should
living up in a cloud your finalizing all your pain
the pressure building all around and it calls your name
wake up in the morning the sun shining on my face

can't fight the feeling
when it calls your name

*** The Joust ***

We fight alone up in a covert operation wade through the litigation from the
dark side of the line look alive stand tall now do not reveal your secrets
generations of achievements shall not be left behind I never knew there was a
hidden source of power the ancients built this tower that we all must keep alive
it's the same alliance that brought us to this notion like the movement in the
ocean all directions we will strive i hear you you feel me a force that's so
strong we will always see i need you i bleed you to a world that's far from free
in the hidden shadows of erveryday battles stands a man

*** Weird Beard ***

The night was dark the seas were rough the port lay straight ahead
the booze ran out the men grew tired and this is what they said
Oh captain if ya cannot find a place to set 'er down
then you'll be sleeping right along this vessel in the ground

The jolly roger pulled through and made it to the land
we disembarked went into town with vengeance in our hands
the children cried the women sighed the men just turned their heads
and with a smile we chanted loud and this is what we said

Oh oh ohhh raise 'em in the air
we'll knock you up and slap you down and never seem to care
Oh oh ohhh another one for me
cause we're the filthy vermin that'll set you people free

With nothing left for us to drink the night was winding down
but still the girls kept swaggering and still hanging around
Oh mister can you tell me where I can find a man
the only the that you'll find's the backside of me hand!

*** We'll Start To Worry When The Cynics Start Believing ***

I took a walk through your world today
nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to stay
I want to see how other people live
remote control and not a thought to give
We're gonna get up we're gonna get even
we'll start to worry when the cynics start believing
After visiting, I'm sure I'll feel fine I'll be placated
by the things in my mind
Locked on the inside while I'm out here running free
I might be crazy but at least it's really me
But I won't believe what they say
Won't ever take what they gave away
I won't negate
Call me insane
I might be crazy but at least I won't play their fuckin game
We're gonna get up we're gonna get even
We'll start to worry when the cynics start believing

*** Youth Gone Wild ***

Since I was born, they couldn't hold me down.
Another misfit kid, another burned-out town.

I never played by the rules, I never really cared.
My nasty reputation takes me everywhere.

Well now I look and see it's not only me,
So many others have stood where I stand,
We are the young so raise your hands.

They call us problem child,
We spend our lives on trial,
We walk an endless mile,
We are the youth gone wild.
We stand and we won't fall,
We're the one and one for all,
The writing's on the wall,
We are the youth gone wild.

Boss screamin' in my ear 'bout who I'm supposed to be.
"in a 3-piece Wall Street smile and son you'll look just like me."

I said "Hey man, there's something that you oughta know.
Park Avenue leads to Skid Row."

Well now I look and see it's not only me,
We're standin' tall, ain't never a doubt,
We are the young, so shout it out!

They call us problem child,
We spend our lives on trial,
We walk an endless mile,
We are the youth gone wild.
We stand and we won't fall,
We're the one and one for all,
The writing's on the wall,
We are the youth gone wild.

Well lemme hear ya get wild!!

They call us problem child,
We spend our lives on trial,
We walk an endless mile,
We are the youth gone wild.
We stand and we won't fall,
We're the one and one for all,
The writing's on the wall,
We are the youth gone wild!
Whoa whoa whoa
We are the youth gone wild!
Whoa whoa whoa
We are the youth gone wild!
Yeah yeah yeah

Whoa whoa whoa
We are the youth gone wild!
