It's time to get this party started
Step right up folks, it's time to feel the beat!
The strings on my guitar will do the talking,
And this rockin' tunes will shake your hips and feet..
Some of you will always be complaining,
when your comfort zone is clearly out of reach.
Bet you don't know what got you til' it's over,
and you'll freak out when the sound waves reach your ears!
Don't think we're out there tryna fool you,
we're all guns blazing, in it for the kill!
Proponents of the past is back to school you,
and play rock'n'roll until our fingers bleed cmon!
Who said our gravy days were over?
We're the next big thing they say all over town!
A second time around, a few years older,
but you'll never keep a rockin' good band down... oh yeah!
Don't think we're out there tryna fool you,
we're all guns blazing, in it for the thrills!
Proponents of the past is back to school you,
and play rock'n'roll until our fingers bleed!

The Tourist

Well.. standard's high, but moral's much too low
he watches her, and he watch her glow,
lightin' up a bowl with a shakin' lighter!
He thinks he lives quite a decent life,
the scars on his face says otherwise,
never saw a light that was shining brighter!
And what goes up.. It must come down!
He flew right into the sun..
And lord.. as he came falling down!
He resides with the filth and the scum,
she doesn't fit into the city slum,
but it sure feels good every time she's near!
Another junkie gets caught by the fuzz,
she looks right at him as the limo stops,
life's hard enough when you belong here!
Yeah yeah yeah!!
And what goes up.. It must come down!
He flew right into the sun!
Oh yeah.. Gotta let you know! They flew right into the sun!

Rock 'n' Roll Degenerate

|

Your pompous face is shoved into mine,
And you're tellin' me that i'm completely vile..
Cut the crap, get a job, get in line,
it's monday morning, better turn in your files!
I'm gonna show you that you got it all wrong,
and there is nothing you could ever do to please me.. please me..
and nothing's gonna make me stop!
Might get you upset.. Rock'n'roll degenerate
Soaked in blood and sweat.. Rock'n'roll degenerate
It's loud, uncivil, with rabid guitars, and the only way to do it is without laws..
And that will bring you down on your knees!
Running amok with a foaming mouth, no exit strategy, no end in sight..
I've gotta tell you you're completely right, i will never regret this way of life!
I'm gonna show you that you got it all wrong,
and there is nothing you could ever do to please me.. please me..
and nothing's gonna make me stop!
Might get you upset.. Rock'n'roll degenerate
Soaked in blood and sweat.. Rock'n'roll degenerate
It's loud, uncivil, with rabid guitars, and the only way to do it is without laws..
And that will bring you down on your knees alright... baby baby won't you please!

Welcome to the badlands!
Wash the blood of your hands..
Streets of the relentless, where no one gets a second chance!
Time down in hell.. It will do you good!
Time down in hell.. Your new neighbourhood!
Time down in hell.. We just wish you could come down, and burn with us!
One way ticket death trip!
I've got you in a tight grip!
Pack your bags, say goodbye to your wife,
get ready for the ride of your life!
Time down in hell.. It will do you good!
Time down in hell.. Your new neighbourhood!
Time down in hell.. We just wish you could come down, and burn with us!

Woke up with a shock this morning..
Overslept again!
Hit the road, and go pedal to the metal..
Stress pulsebeat and stomach pain!
All work.. No fun.. No holidays in the sun!
Late for work and the man comes knockin.. knocking on my door!
Eight hours of hell and headache, came to an end..
Got home in a bad condition, but i'm on the mend..
All work.. No fun.. No holidays in the sun..
I swear i'm gonna quit tomorrow, stickin' it to the man!
Hey you.. Gettin' kinda manic
Hey you.. Constant panic
Oh yeah.. Been down this road before!
Rat race! Don't you know it's a rat race!
Oh yeah..
Feels like i fell a mile, before i hit the tiles!

Let Me In
03:48
|
|||
I just don't know sometimes, i don't know what it is
How did we end up here, how did it come to this?
Left in the cold, with nothing left but fear..
All love is bold, and will never disappear..
Woman.. Woman! You know we've been down this road before!
Open up your mind and let me in..
Want you back, you're all i want to win!
Woman Lost in the haze, please open up your door!
Open up your mind and let me in..
Want you back, you're all i want to win!
I never made an effort, i never made you glad,
some even say i never did you anything but sad..
It's hard to be forgotten, but i know you took a stance,
let me in girl, give me one last chance!

Stuck In A Groove
03:07
|
|||
Beneath a pile of stones, all bruised with broken bones,
Is how i felt when i got up today!
No clue from yesterday, a puzzle all the way,
pick up the missing pieces to find out.. oh yeah!
And i got stuck in the groove.. I guess i'm stuck here with you,
two cogs in the wheel of misery!
The look i got from you.. Now i don't know what to do,
Now I'm tryin' to regret things i don't know!
Where did we go last night? Did i get in a fight?
Please fill in all the blanks, connect the dots.. oh yeah!
And i got stuck in the groove.. I guess i'm stuck here with you,
two cogs in the wheel of misery!
No reason to be noble anymore..
Fell deep inside the void, and that's for sure!
My hand's all dirty, and my clothes all tatters,
but i'm a nice boy and that's what matters..
Hey baby why can't you see, i'm just a one way ticket to misery!

Decline to Conform
03:46
|
|||
Closing time, and it's time to go home,
wasted again.. I'm always leaving alone,
no time for grief i wanna do it again!
One last call (for alcohol) need a beer for the road,
oh man.. i should have stopped a hundred ago!
No time to quit, i wanna do it again!
You say it's time to grow up ?
You're tellin' me that i gotta act my age ?
Well baby.. Whatever happened to you?
You'd better stop all your trash talk baby!
Remember when you had a mind of your own?
Got no car.. No house.. No life
Got a shitty job.. Sure as hell got no wife!
My choice in life, and i'll gladly do it again..
Wasted nights, wasted years,
but i don't care about these ageing fears,
I won't conform.. I wanna do it again..
Do it all again!

Goin' under.. That's all she wrote!
Just dumped us all into the sea without a boat..
Sold out! Left out! No more gloves of silk..
It's pretty clear that you drank bile instead of mothers milk
I don't care what you have done..
You are your father's son..
And your walls are closing in on me!
I'm not the only one, who's singin' this old song..
You'll never gonna set us free!
Going insane! It's rotten to the core..
You're pure evil baby, you're an open sore!
I don't care what you have done..
You are your father's son..
And your walls are closing in on me!
I'm not the only one, who's singin' this old song..
You'll never gonna set us free!

Shallow 'n' Mean
02:43
|
|||
Last time i met her, in my freshman year,
That's where the story began!
We started to hang out (though i wanted more)
But she always made me feel like less of a man..
Heart's aching, whole world's shaking',
she kept me on the rack!
She only cared about her hopes and dreams,
her face on the cover of a magazine!
Shallow n mean.. Oh can't you see..
You're shallow n mean.. Oh yeah!
She soon became a little high school queen,
this jock-doll wants to be seen!
But years went by and never did her no good,
carrier down the drain, yeah she failed to succeed!
Now she's aching, her whole world is shaking',
she comes crawling back to me..
Now girl.. how come you did not want me before?
I don't wanna be a part of your hopes and dreams no more!

Not So Fortunate Son
03:45
|
|||
Always told not to mess with the law,
tried to stay in school, pick the longest straw..
Tried my best to avoid all trouble,
but failed to behave and i fucked up double!
A god worthy man who lives by the flag,
nailed the pledge of allegiance but failed to observe..
Ignored my mom's advice, so i have to pay the price!
No.. No.. No!!
Hey sucker.. Here we go again!
I'm stuck in a losing streak, on a winning round..
It's true what people say.. No luck will come my way!
Hey don't you know.. Cause when it all comes down,
I'm a not so fortunate son!
Always broke and it drives me crazy, tried some jobs
but i'm just too lazy!
My life is just a roll with the dice.. And now i have to pay the price!
Oh.. No.. No!!
Hey sucker.. Here we go again!
I'm stuck in a losing streak, on a winning round..
It's true what people say.. No luck will come on me!
Hey don't you know.. Cause when it all comes down,
I'm a not so fortunate son!

Dog on a Leash
03:30
|
|||
It's been a whole week now since we spoke,
can't even recall what i said to provoke
Baby.. why is that you never wanna forget,
strangled in your leash like i was your pet
Always this fuss and commotion with you,
quit being' such a bitch, and cut that attitude!
I opened up, all feelings are shown,
so come on girl, and throw this dog a bone!
I tried to let you know But you don't care
I tried to let you go But i don't dare!
Got no feelings, face always a frown,
babe.. I'm pretty sure you've got a heart of stone
Constant headache, constant moan,
countless rants over the telephone!
I tried to let you know But you don't care
I tried to let you go But i don't dare!
I tried to let you know But you don't care
I tried to let you go
But i i'm to scared to lose you babe!

Frenetic Magnetic
03:11
|
|||
I’m gettin’ tired of this “bumpin’ into you”
And every time you look at me seems like you're gonna puke!
Still every sunday morning, you're sleeping on my arm.. Oh yeah!
And i say yes, and you say no!
There is no use to bitch and moan!
This love’s magnetic.. It won’t run low..
It’s too late for letting go!
When i go outta town to get away from you,
you’ll always be the very first i run into..
Might as well give in, frenetic love will win!
And you say yes, and i say no.. I say No No No!!
There is no use to bitch and moan!
This love’s magnetic.. It won’t run low..
It’s too late for letting go!
