She is the product of a spoiled America Live large, spend hard, and buy what you’re told. She swallowed everything her daddy had given her In one big bite, devoured it whole. A mind ain’t worth a damn when it’s buried in the sand; You can’t keep up with the Kardashians. To covet all that is seen in a glossy magazine There must be something more… She knows nothing of history; Where we’re from, and how it all came to be Why she’s here is a mystery, but it’s just – too – late – now… I’m real sorry to be so blunt, but I’ve got nothing in common with any of these cunts (x 2) The countdown to World War III A date that lives in infamy. And through it all, it turned out to be A lie played out on MTV. He is the product of a modern dystopia Work hard/play hard, and sleep when you’re old Flew to Japan where he bought Ethiopia A life comes cheap when legally sold. Sing along with the band when you’re trying to be The Man You take your share, and get it while you can. It’s supply and demand, but he’ll never understand That there is something more… A work/life balance means shit to me I’d rather live, ’cos that part is meant to be We learned nothing from history, and it’s just – too – late – now… I’m real sorry to be so blunt, but I’ve got nothing in common with any of these cunts (x 2) The countdown to World War III A date that lives in infamy. And with this vow, I pledge to thee A life of vile complacency. They’re shallow and awful, deserve one another They’re breeding and spawning, just like all the others Now he is a father and she is a mother It’s just – too – late - now… I’m real sorry to be so blunt, but I’ve got nothing in common with any of these cunts (WHOA-OH!) x 4 The countdown to World War III A date that lives in infamy And now is sprung from between her knees A screaming ball of obscenity… The kids of today are the bastards of tomorrow Had you thought it through, then it wouldn’t follow: When your pride and joy’s a nightmare to all Our choice is jump, or die in the fall…

Burn It Down 02:09
Don’t shut your eyes now You’ll miss it all and I’m taking aim All this malign and The ties that bind’ll have to wait We’re going down in flames today We can’t turn back through all this rage I just want a taste of your mouth Feed your hunger from the inside out We’re gonna burn it down Yeah, burn it down We’re gonna burn it down For all time Burn it down Funny how the dark turned light as soon as you hit me Take a ride with the indigents in the back seat Would you jump if you weren’t pushed? A dark phantom’s following us Of one mind, in your Depression Now that we have your attention Burn it down For all time Burn it down We’re gonna burn it down Now you’re mine Burn it down When you’re run aground You’ll see me Burn it down Now we burn it down We’re set free Burn it down

What went wrong at the fall of Saigon? I could taste the gin as she’s fucking my tongue. First prize: a set of steak knives She could change your life as she ruined mine… She depends, I suppose, on your take on perfection Got one eye running in the other direction It ends, I suppose, in a fit of perplexion with One eye running in the other direction, and I… She is a chorister, with a weak heart Forces bring them together and tear them apart Now she’s a barrister, with no heart Brandishing stanzas and verses which none dare call art… She said: “Top Gun was aiming to please, Now be my wingman, and get down on your knees.” Out for the count with the greatest of ease I could spit words out like a mouthful of teeth, and I… She said: “You’ll never want what you can have”; I said, “Aiming for Cloud Seven isn’t so bad…” And now that all the gulls have flown south, I was diving for crumbs with a gun in my mouth… Arms raised high in a state of attrition, sat Minnie Mouse on the Warren Commission Step back, but not for a lack of ambition Set Mapother IV an impossible mission, as I… To save the village, destroy the village… To save the village, destroy the village… Corral the villagers in a lynch-mob Set a blaze in the windmill and finish the job She said: “There’s nothing now; nothing for us” I said: “Don’t slow me down, I’m approaching the chorus”… Take a seat next to Harrison Ford as Adele’s song wins the Academy Award. Rifle cross-hairs snapping their jaws Just to hail the new face of American war, where I: Highball the eyeball…

I don’t drink I don’t fuck I can’t DJ, I sulk and I just wanna… I don’t drink I don’t fuck I can’t DJ, I sulk and I just wanna dance I’ve got no sense of humour My talent is a rumour I don’t drink I don’t fuck I can’t DJ, I sulk and I just wanna… I don’t drink I don’t fuck I can’t DJ, I sulk and I wear a big hat It’s violet on the outside It’s black on the inside So don’t get on my wrong side Yeah, don’t get on my wrong side Play some emo Play some emo Play some emo Clear the floor! Play some emo Play some emo Play some emo I’m coming through …Cunt.
