lyrics
T.V. Die
If you watch you rot
A battle we've all fought
Who controls your thoughts?
Do it right now
Lies are bought and sold
The rich have us controlled
Don't wait till we're old
Do it right now
They want us to see
The fake reality
It's up to you and me
Do it right now
You can end this fight
With no TV tonight
I think the time is right
Do it right now
ch- Take a fuckin' rock and throw it right through the screen!
Take a fuckin' brick and throw it right through the screen! TV Die!
The media is a lie
Don't let yourself comply
TV has to die
Do it right now
What you think you'll be
Channels changing me
Make T.V. history
Do it right now
Watch and I consume
The Remote control's my doom
Death in the living room
Do it right now
Throw it to the floor
Can't watch it anymore
My fuckin' eyes are sore
Do it right now
ch- Take a fuckin' rock and throw it right through the screen!
Take a fuckin' brick and throw it right through the screen! TV die!
Take Kontrol
Throw that bottle in the air
torch that cop car over there
break the law, do as you please
bring this system to its knees
-ch-Ahh Take kontrol! x4
start a war with the cops
this is where oppression stops
its time to be defiant and bold
this is where we take kontrol!
-ch-
we will stomp them through and through
underground army of the youth
fuck their moral value tradition
away with the tyrants that fuck this system!
Religion Is Suicide
jesus fuckin, jesus fuckin, jesus fuckin christ,
waste away in bible school, waste away your life
fill your mind with holy thoughts, fill your head with lies
too closed minded to see your bullshit, open up your eyes
holy fuckin, holy fuckin, holy fuckin war
raised and taught to fight for god, whats the reason for?
born to be a casualty, never asking why
if your fuckin god's so great, why do your people die?
cruci-fuckin, cruci-fuckin, cruci-fuckin fix,
a symbol of salvation, or a martyr for your tricks?
your supposed holy man, took the peoples side
but you're the fuckin reason why he was crucified!
Who's side you on?
there is conflict in my head
if i choose wrong i will be dead
choose what's wrong or do what's right
run and hide or stay and fight
-ch- your number has been drawn
commence on the lawn
one question comes to dawn
who's side you on?
the choice is your's and your's alone
remember all that you've been shown
lines are drawn in the ground
make your choice dont stand around
-ch-
join with us and fight the system
we can win if we resist 'em
stand up proud and defiant
i'm not a fucking compliant
-ch-
dont join the enemy to become a slave
you'll be digging your own grave
so i will ask you one more time
who's fuckin side you on??
-ch-
Orders to Kill
yes we need a fucking war
its the rich against the poor
with soldiers lined against the wall
the final acts are gonna fall
they're so full of hate and greed
a one world army they want to lead
-ch- Orders to Kill! x4
with riots spreading like the plague
we'll destroy the filthy race
disorder ringing in the streets
the only chance we have to beat
the tides of war slowly churn
the system will be overturned
-ch-
Smash the Fascists
fascist left, fascist right
smash the fascists with all your might
fascist this and fascist that
we wont take their fascist shit
fascist teachers, fascist cops
all the fascists must be stopped
fascist leaders of this nation
prepare for violent demonstration
-ch- Smash the Fascists! x4
pacifist people everywhere
play right into fascist scare
cause fascist news dont tell the truth
propaganda schools brainwash the youth
these fascist kids grow up old
believe the lies that theyve been told
we need complete elimination
the fascist puppetmasters of the nation
-ch-
Pre-packaged Capitalist Meat
fuck you america, you make me fuckin' sick
i'm fed up with this countries fucking stupid fucking tricks
i'm sick of being lied to, i'm sick of the false hopes
i'm so fucking sick and tired i'd rather fucking choke
fuck off americans, you act like fucking sheep
follow blindly to the slaughterhouse, pre-packaged capitalist meat
you slave your fucking ass off, you play by fucking rules
but if you're too slow, you dont pass go, you get no swimming pool
fucking stupid president, as stupid as a rock
fighting daddy's fuckin war, as he leads you by your cock
you're nothing but a martyr, spokesperson for the mass
if you cant find who to blame try looking up your ass!
ignorant fucking child, dont bring your fuckin gun to school
cant you see you're being used as the systems fucking tool?
didnt anyone tell you thats not how to fuckin play?
another excuse, elitist abuse, to take our weapons away!
fuck your lame excuses, dont mean a fucking thing to me
remove the blinders from your eyes and you will fucking see
the choice is yours to change your life, a life thats full of hate
decision alone to be a clone that only you create
A.T.F.
everyone knows the ATF
puts disaster to the test
with all their training to destroy
anyone who stands in their way
-ch-how many more babies?
how many more lives?
how many more innocent must suffer?
now you're gonna pay for your crimes!
climb through windows, drop through roofs
jack boot killers dont give a fuck
torch your life to the ground
we dont want ATF around
-ch-
trusted terrorists of the state
best technology in their hands
they use abuse in every way
to those of us who take a stand!
-ch-
White Stuff
been spun out for five days
all that shit creeps up your veins
fucks your head, makes you numb
slam more dope, have more fun
-ch- go ahead and do your drugs
get all fucked up when you're young
just as long's you're having fun
ARE YOU?
first on weekends, before too long
you'll be stealing from your mom
for some money to get high
you can kiss your ass goodbye!
-ch-
