We Drag You Down
You see us coming in million man droves 
You see us coming and we sound just like drones 
You see us coming, you got nowhere to go 
You see us coming and we've broken your home 
We've got your ankles and we've got your feet 
For your death we've got front row seats 
Yours is not to wonder why 
Yours is but to do and die 

We drag you down 
We are all around 
When we drag you down we use strength you've never seen before 
We drag you down 
We're bastards 

You hear us talking and you just can't breathe 
You hear us talking and you won't get no relief 
You hear us talking even in your sleep 
You hear us talking, good god you'll believe 
Your hands are tied and your feet are cold 
No way in hell you will ever grow old 
Rage, rage against the dying of the light 
Do not go gently into that dark night 

We drag you down 
We are all around 
When we drag you down we use strength you've never seen before 
We drag you down 
We're bastards 

You're in a corner now and we're closing in fast 
You're going to be ours soon and we'll see how long that skin will last 
Sticks and stones may break your bones 
But fire will burn the flesh 
Not to mention guns and knives 
That will leave you in a bloodied, crippled mess 

We drag you down 
We are all around 
When we drag you down we use strength you've never seen before 
We drag you down 
We're bastards 

They drag, they drag, they drag me down

Smackhound
I see you crawling around on all fours on Jefferson Avenue 
Catch your reflection in a puddle, is that really you 
Lost your cash, did your stash, now you're up shit creek 
Sold your coat, despite the cold, haven't eaten for a week 
A 40 ounce is cheap 
Where you going to sleep 
Who are you, where you from 
Will you ever see 

Smackhoud - you buy your own leash 
Smackhoud - you sell your own lease 
Smackhoud - I'm talking about your life 
And that ain't no lie 

Why you trading your baby for a hit that just won't last 
Fucked up your priorities, so let's all get gassed 
Standing at the corner hoping that you'll score some more 
Standing at the corner cos now you're a whore 
Passed out on the floor 
Death is such a bore 
Puke-stained jeans, ends and means 
It rots you to the core 

Smackhoud - you buy your own leash 
Smackhoud - you sell your own lease 
Smackhoud - I'm talking about your life 
And that ain't no lie 

Wanna treat now, sell your dreams now
Wanna treat now, sell your dreams now
You're here for the hit 
I'm here cos I'm lit 
You go out and celebrate 
Hit the corner, don't be late 

Smackhoud - you buy your own leash 
Smackhoud - you sell your own lease 
Smackhoud - I'm talking about your life 
And that ain't no lie

Devil's Pride
Have you met your angel 
I sure met mine 
He's a shy little fellow 
And he sure likes to hide 
He doesn't really say much 
And when he does it's too late 
It's because of him I know 
That I've lost my faith 

Pride, devil's pride
Pride, devil's pride 

Have you met your demon 
Man I sure have 
He keeps me up at night 
Talking in my bed 
We speak of love, we speak of war 
And philosophy 
I am lost, I am found 
Yet I'm still me 

Pride, devil's pride
Pride, devil's pride 

What does it all mean 
And why, why am I in between 
And how the hell would you know 
It's all the same anyhow 

Pride, devil's pride
Pride, devil's pride 

That's right 
Got it running through me 
It's what keeps me going 
Hehehehee

Skel'tons In The Closet
I don't believe in your ideology 
I won't subscribe to your faith in me 
And I won't have a brand put on me 

Why are you always so alone 
Why don't you pick up your damn phone 
And put a call through to me 

I'll drive my car every night 
But I will never see the light 

I shove my fist right through the glass 
It's a horribly bloody mess 
And I refuse to blame you 

Poison's filling up my head 
I wanted to know your bed 
But you shoved me away 

I will run every day 
And still will not get away 

And I'm tired of wasting all my time 
And I still enjoy a damn good lie 
What are you gonna do with me 
Especially when I refuse, when I refuse to be seen 

Get in the car and drive away 
This is the time not to look away 

Nightmare's are closing in 
And I got nowhere to run 
But I got one thing left to do 
And that's to look out for number one

Bitch
Want to slam your face in the mud 
Want to crack your skull with a brick 
You ain't nothing little man 
Nothing but a little prick 
Bastard born, unloved 
Sweet son of man 
Hopeless little chump 
Thankless little punk 

There's one fucking truth 
You're a bitch 

Second attack, someone new 
Second attack, someone worse 
Steal a little heart 
Steal a little purse 
Righteous little cunt 
This song's for you 
You got no fucking class 
Kiss my hairy white ass 

There's one fucking truth 
You're a bitch

She Kicked My Ass
I walked past Jimmy's yesterday 
And I saw her working there 
I remembered the way she looked at me 
I remembered the smell of her hair 
She was so good to me 
For about a week or two 
Things were looking bright for me 
God damn if I only knew 

Well we went out one particular night 
And we came home a little late 
She asked if I would come inside 
I said yes, I took the bait 
I'm not gonna lie, I was excited 
As I walked in through the door 
I was hot, but the next thing that I knew 
I was laid out on the floor 

She kicked my ass
She kicked my ass
She kicked my ass
I swear to god, she's bigger than she looks 

All I did was lean for a kiss 
Then she smacked my in the face 
She kicked me straight in the crotch 
Then she fed me her shoelace 
And as if that wasn't bad enough 
She threw me out the door 
And that was the last time I ever touched 
That dirty, smelly whore 

She kicked my ass
She kicked my ass
She kicked my ass
She's got balls of solid rock 

She's an animal 
She works out four times a week 
She shaves for christ's sake

Drawn to you
Drawn to you
Drawn to you
Drawn to you

I've got to get out of this goddamn place 
I can't stand no more of your ugly face 
I wish the bartender'd pick up the pace 
Or else I've got to get out of this goddamn place 
Your voice just makes me want to throw up 
I've had better times pissing in a cup 
You say you're leaving, I don't give a fuck 
Cos your voice just makes me want to throw up 

I just don't know why I'm drawn to you 
You only look good after a few 
I wish that this night would just get through 
But still I'll always be drawn to you 

Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around 
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around

Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around
Take a bottle, drink it down, pass it around

Welcome to the world where you always follow the rules 
Welcome to the world where you'll always be number two 
Welcome to the world where you will never see 
The best that you're told you're supposed to be 
Why don't they just leave us all alone 
We answer to their sins, they fuck up our homes 
Welcome to the world where you will always see 
The absolute worst you will ever be 

Welcome to the world where we're always glad to see you 
Welcome to the world, did you ever really ask to be here 
Welcome to the world where you will lose your dreams 
It's not that bad, hell, fun is in your screams 
We throw you in the corner, we fuck you in the mind 
We call it discipline, you call it a crime 
Welcome to the world where you live it day to day 
Why are you even here anyway 

Why don't you just get out
Why don't you just get out
Why don't you just get out
Why don't you just get out

Welcome to the world, an eternal place of loss 
Where you're fooled to think you are your own boss 
It's a mass sea of black, can't you see it all around 
Where the beauty of pain is always very loud 
Welcome to the world where life is a bitch 
It's too bad that you never really fucking asked for it 

Why don't you just get out
Why don't you just get out
Why don't you just get out
Why don't you just get out
While you can

Crash
Whiskey in hand I grab the wheel 
Cigarette burns I will not feel 
Flesh and blood and glass and steel 
I get off on death behind the wheel 
Mothers, your kids don't matter to me 
All set off by the turn of a key 
Tell them the street's no place to be 
Teach those fucking kids to fear me 

The pain, the screams, more's all I need 
Step in line, who's next to bleed 
You will die if I feel the need 
Get on your knees, get on your knees 
Road flying by at the speed of sound 
Rubber on tar fucking up the ground 
Eyes closing shut, head spinning round 
Mama's lost boy will never be found 

Crash, burn, bleed 
Look out
Daddy's come home 

You can never hold me down 
Don't bother to look around 
I'm all over this fucking town 
No matter what, I'll cut you down 
Moon bleeds down and gives me sight 
Streelamp hums with eager fright 
Paradise by the dashboard light 
Fuck people, this is Devil's Night 

Crash, burn, bleed 
Look out
Daddy's come home 

Crash, burn, bleed 
Look out
Crash, burn, bleed

The Beggar's Ride
No beg, no ride 
This bus is free 
The countryside 
Is just out of reach 

No harm, no foul 
It's up to you 
Get on your knees 
And pray to you know who 

Pat likes to smoke pot and sleepin' on his side
Frank loves his SEGA and both are on The Beggar's Ride 

No pay all day 
The driver screams 
The passengers 
Are a motley scene 

Now as it was 
So shall it be 
With some groveling 
This ride is free 

Roger's not his name because he likes to hide 
Brad teaches at school and crawls home on The Beggar's Ride 

Pat likes to smoke pot and sleepin' on his side 
Frank loves his SEGA and both are on the beggar 
Roger's not his name because he likes to hide 
Brad teaches at school and all are on The Beggar's Ride
Ride, ride, ride


My nuts
Give me some feedback
I tried

Enslaved [HTCP]
What happened to the promises we made
What happened to the promises we made
When did this room get so crowded 
How did these minds get so clouded 
Where is your heart 
I buried it 
Will you speak your mind 
Not in this life 
What happened to the promises we made 

What happened to those who'd call out
What happened to those who'd call out
When will the tiger crash her cage 
Watch as the lion aches from age 
You can't escape 
The hunt is on 
Blood feeds the trees 
Blood feeds the rage 
What happened to those who'd call out 

Mother, mother, mother, mother
Mother, what have you done to me 
Is this all I'll ever be 
Mother, what have you done to me 
It's time to set this boy free 

One day that you will never need
One day that you will never need
Look at the grass and thirst for rain 
Listen as the women scream in pain 
Who needs the hurt 
I hunger for it 
Who will nurse the bruise 
And watch it grow 
One day that you will never need 

Mother, mother, mother, mother
Mother, what have you done to me 
Is this all I'll ever be 
Mother, what have you done to me 
It's time to set this boy free

Moonshine Boy
Papa never loved me 
But he sure loved the boozed 
Mama never told me 
All the bad news 
I remember one day 
Sitting on the tracks 
Papa done left me 
And he ain't coming back 

Sitting on the corner 
When Sally walked by 
She was looking real good 
Make me feel so high 
Damn if that woman 
Didn't treat me so bad 
Sally up and left me 
Make me feel so sad 

I'm just a kid 
And the booze is my toy 
I'm just a kid 
And that's why they call me the Moonshine Boy 

Sitting in this bar now 
All day long 
Got a bottle in my one hand 
And it'll soon be gone 
People always ask me 
Why the booze bring me joy 
I just tell them 
I'm the Moonshine Boy 

I'm just a kid 
And the booze is my toy 
I'm just a kid 
And that's why they call me the Moonshine Boy 
That's why they call me the Moonshine Boy

Earth Died Screaming
Rudy's on the midway 
And Jacob's in the hole 
The monkey's on the ladder 
The devil shovels coal 
With crows as big as aeroplanes 
The lion has three heads 
And someone will eat the skin 
That he sheds 

Well hell doesn't want you 
And heaven is full 
Bring me some water 
And put it in this skull 
I walk between the raindrops 
I wait in Bughouse Square 
And the army ants 
They leave nothing but the bones 

And the earth died screaming 
While I lay dreaming
And the earth died screaming 
While I lay dreaming
Dreaming of you 

There was thunder, there was lightning 
Then the stars went out 
The moon fell from the sky 
It rained mackerel, it rained trout 
And the great day of wrath has come 
And here's mud in your big red eye 
The poker's in the fire 
And the locust take the sky 

And the earth died screaming 
While I lay dreaming
And the earth died screaming 
While I lay dreaming
And the earth died screaming 
While I lay dreaming
And the earth died screaming 
While I lay dreaming
Dreaming of you
Dreaming of you
Dreaming of you
Dreaming of you
Dreaming of you
