KILL THE POOR
Efficiency and progress is ours once more / Now that we have the Neutron bomb / It’s nice and quick and clean and gets things done / Away with excess enemy / With no less value to property / No sense in war but perfect sense at home… / The sun beams down on a brand new day / No more welfare tax to pay / Unsightly slums gone up in flashing light / Jobless millions whisked away / At last we have more room to play / All systems go to kill the poor tonight / Gonna Kill Kill Kill Kill / Kill the poor…Tonight / Behold the sparkle of champagne / The crime rate’s gone, feel free again / Oh life’s a dream with you, Miss Lily White / Jane Fonda on the screen today / Convinced the liberals it’s okay / So let’s get dressed and dance away the night / While they…Kill Kill Kill Kill / Kill the poor…Tonight
FORWARD TO DEATH
I don’t need your way of life / I can’t stand your attitudes / I can do without your strife / I don’t need this fucking world / I don’t need this fucking world / This world brings me down / Gag with every breath / This world brings me down / I’m looking forward to death / It seems so unreal to me / So much hate and so much pity / I can’t take another day / It’s such a bore / It gets me really sore / I don’t need this fucking world / I don’t need this fucking world / This world brings me down / Gag with every breath / This world brings me down / I’m looking forward to death / I’m looking forward to death
WHEN YA GET DRAFTED
Are you believing the morning papers? / War is coming back in style / There’s generals here, advisers there / And Russians nibbling everywhere / The chessboard’s filling up with red / We make more profits when we blow off their heads / Economy is looking bad / Let’s start another war, when ya get drafted / Fan the fires of racist hatred / We want a total war, when ya get drafted / Drooling fingers, panic buttons / Playing with missiles like they’re toys / There’s easy money, easy jobs / Especially when you build the bombs / That blow big cities off the map / Just guess who profits when we build ‘em back up / Yeah, what big Business wants Big Business gets / It wants a war, when ya get drafted / Trilateral Commission goonies laugh / and scheme for more, when ya get drafted / Call the Army! Call the Navy! / Stocked with kids from slums, when ya get drafted / If you can’t afford a slick attorney / We might make you a spy / Forget your demonstrations / Kids today sit on their ass, when ya get drafted / Just a six-pack and you’re happy / We’re prepared for, when ya get drafted
LET’S LYNCH THE LANDLORD
The landlord’s here to visit / They’re blasting disco down below / Sez, “I’m doubling the rent / Cos the building’s condemned / You’re gonna help me buy City Hall” / But we can, you know we can / We can, you know we can / Let’s lynch the landlord man / I tell them “turn on the water” / I tell ‘em “turn on the heat” / Tells me “All you ever do is complain” / Then they search the place when I’m not here / But we can, you know we can / Let’s lynch the landlord / Let’s lynch the landlord / Let’s lynch the landlord man / There’s rats chewin’ up the kitchen / Roaches up to my knees / Turn the over on, it smells like Dachau, yeah / ‘Til the rain pours through the ceiling / But we can, you know we can / Let’s lynch the landlord, man
DRUG ME
I don’t want to think / Don’t make me care / I wanna melt in with the group / I need the balls / To leap out of my shell / And let go with my friends / Can’t come up with anything I want to do / I need a project I can finish / My brain needs some stimulation / Drug Me Drug Me Drug Me Drug Me / I’m so fucking tired / I gotta stay awake and get to work / I’m runnin’ late / I gotta make it through the day / And make my time go by / TV and the stereo and girls are lots of fun / I want the max / I relate better loaded / “Got to see the movie stoned” / Drug Me Drug Me Drug Me / Drug me - with natural vitamin C / Drug me - with pharmaceutical speed / Drug me - with your sleeping pills / Drug me - with your crossword puzzles / Drug me - with your magazines / Drug me - with your fuck machines / With a fountain of fads / More rock and roll ads… / Drug Me Drug Me Drug Me Me Me / Finally off of work / Unwind, and watch the ball game at the bar / Another potato chip weekend / Is here at last / Go away Go away Go away Go away / Go away leave me alone / So I can’t see myself / Drug Me Drug Me Drug Me Drug Me
YOUR EMOTIONS
Your mommy told you this / And your daddy told you that / Always think like this / And never do that / You learned so many feelings / But what is there to that / Which are really yours / Or are you just a copycat / You’re so boring boring boring / Always tape machine recording / You’re so boring boring boring / I’ve heard all this before / Planless and mindless / Scraps from anywhere / Bunch of used parts / From garbage pails everywhere / Frankenstein became a monster / Just like you / Your scars only show / When someone talks to you / You’re so boring boring boring / Always tape machine recording / I’ve heard all this before / I’ve heard all this before / Your emotions make you a monster
CHEMICAL WARFARE
Down at the arsenal they keep the nerve gasses / Guarded day and night by caged white rabbits / Been sitting there for years / I’m gonna have at it / I cut through the fence, run right in and grab it / Go crazy crazy crazy crazy… / Now I got my mustard gas in my pocket / Climb on a tree on a branch and drop it / On a country club full of Saturday golfers / So I can watch them die / Chokin’ shakin’ in convulsions / Go crazy crazy crazy crazy… / Chemical Warfare Chemical Warfare / Chemical Warfare Warfare Warfare / Panic in the air / See the headless chickens runnin’ / Golf carts head on crashin’ / Crackin’ heads wide open / Scratch the grass, mister, you can’t breathe / And roll and writhe in a sand trap / Starting to heave / Claw those clubs, lemme see you seethe / Crazy crazy crazy crazy crazy crazy / Chemical Warfare Chemical Warfare / Chemical Warfare Warfare Warfare / Yellow air, yellow clouds / Blowin’ down down down the fairway / Sensitive to the touch / Movin’ down the putting green / Heading straight for the big club house / Where the stuffed country club effervescent ladies / So carefree, relax, pose by the pool / Limber limp with a dry martini / Until…
CALIFORNIA ÜBER ALLES
I am Governor Jerry Brown / My aura smiles and never frowns / Soon I will be president… / Carter power will soon go away / I will be Führer one day / I will command all of you / Your kids will meditate in school / California Uber Alles / Uber Alles California / Zen fascists will control you / 100% natural / You will jog for the master race / And always wear the happy face / Close your eyes, can’t happen here / Big Bro’ on white horse is near / The hippies won’t come back you say / Mellow out or you will pay / California Uber Alles / Uber Alles California / Now it is 1984 / Knock knock at your front door / It’s the suede denim secret police / They have come for your uncool niece / Come quietly to the camp / You’d look nice as a drawstring lamp / Don’t you worry, it’s only a shower / For your clothes here’s a pretty flower / DIE on organic poison gas / Serpent’s egg’s already hatched / You will croak, you little clown / When you mess with President Brown / California Uber Alles / Uber Alles California
I KILL CHILDREN
I kill children / I love to see them die / I kill children / And make their mammas cry / Crush ‘em under my car / I wanna hear them scream / Feed ‘em poison candy / To spoil their Halloween / So you’re in the kids’ ward / You’re in there ‘cos you’re ill / Now about some Pavulon / So I can see you chill / Time to hit the school bus / I think I’ll shoot the tires / Offer them a helping hand / Of open telephone wires / Ever wanted to die? / Of course you have / But I won’t until I get my revenge / I don’t wanna see people any more / Things I never saw before / Make me see them for the shit they are / Take as many as I can away with me / Anyone can be king for a day… / So I kill children, I love to see them die / I kill children, to make their mammas cry / I kill children, I bang their heads in doors / I kill children, can hardly wait for yours…
STEALING PEOPLE’S MAIL
We ain’t goin’ to the party / We ain’t goin’ to the game / We ain’t goin’ to the disco / Ain’t gonna cruise down Main / We’re stealing people’s mail / Stealing people’s mail / Stealing people’s mail / On a Friday night / Drivin’ in the mountains / Winding ‘round and ‘round / Rummage through your mailboxes / Take your mail back to town / We got license plates, wedding gifts, tax return / Checks to politicians from real estate firms / Money, bills and canceled checks / Pretty funny pictures of your kids / We’re stealing people’s mail / On a Friday night / We’re stealing people’s mail / By the pale moonlight / We got grocery sackful after grocery sackful / After grocery sackful after grocery sackful / After grocery sackful after grocery sackful / Of the private lives of you / Ha Ha / People say that we’re crazy / Sick and all alone / But when we read your letters / We’re rolling on the floor / We got more license plates, wedding gifts, tax returns / Checks to politicians from real estate firms / Money, bills and canceled checks / We cut relationships with your friends / We’re gonna steal your mail / On a Friday night / We’re gonna steal your mail / By the pale moonlight / We better not get caught / We’ll be dumped in institutions / Where we’ll be drugged and shocked / ‘Til we come out born-again Christians…
FUNLAND AT THE BEACH
Sunny Sunday at the amusement park / See the fat kids spill their pop / Oh babe - lots of flags and balloons / But someone sabotaged the roller coaster last night / Ran a turn and then it smashed right down / Through the crowded haunted house below / Oh No / Human hamburger No / And it’s Crushed little kids / Crushed little kids / Crushed little kids / Adorn the boardwalk / See the tourists drop their jaws and cones / See the owners smell a big lawsuit / Oh Police! (call your lawyer first) / Make the witnesses go home / And they’ll turn on the TV / And see those crushed little kids / Adorn the boardwalk
ILL IN THE HEAD
In a desperate mind / Little gardens grow / They grow very wide / They grow very tall / Why am I alive / Urban wonderland / By the fence I stand / In and out of hand / There are many paths / Dripping dark so dense / Do not enter here / Enter over there / People closing in / Barking at my mind / Shoving me to whine / I want all alone / I want my own home / I want my own girl / Help me hate the world / Own and love my life
HOLIDAY IN CAMBODIA
So you been to school for a year or two / And you know you’ve seen it all / In daddy’s car, thinkin’ you’ll go far / Back east your type don’t crawl / Play ethnincky jazz to parade you snazz / On your five grand stereo / Braggin’ that you know how the niggers feel the cold / And the slum’s got so much soul / It’s time to taste what you most fear / Right Guard will not help you here / Brace yourself, my dear… / It’s a holiday in Cambodia / It’s tough, kid, but it’s life / It’s a holiday in Cambodia / Don’t forget to pack a wife / You’re a star-belly sneech, you suck like a leech / You want everyone to act like you / Kiss ass while you bitch so you can get rich / While your boss gets richer off you / Well you’ll work harder with a gun in your back / For a bowl of rice a day / Slave for soldiers ‘til you starve / Then your head is skewered on a stake / Now you can go where people are one / Now you go where they get things done / What you need, my son… / Is a holiday in Cambodia / Where people dress in black / A holiday in Cambodia / Where you’ll kiss ass or crack / Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, etc…. / And it’s a holiday in Cambodia / Where you’ll do what you’re told / A holiday in Cambodia / Where the slums got so much soul
VIVA LAS VEGAS
Twilight City gonna set my soul / It's gonna set my soul on fire / Got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn / So get those stakes up high / There's a thousand pretty women waiting out there / They're all waiting, they'll never make air / And I'm just the devil with a lung to spare, so / Chorus: Viva Las Vegas / Viva Las Vegas / Viva Las Vegas / How I wish that there were more / Than the 24 hours in the day / Even if I ran out of speed, boy / I wouldn't sleep a minute of the way / Oh that blackjack and poker and the roulette wheel / I'll poach your money lost on every deal / All you need is sonar and nerves of steel, so / (Chorus) / Viva Las Vegas / Where the neon signs flash your name / The one-arm bandits cash in / All soap's down the drain / Viva Las Vegas / Turning day into nighttime / Turning night into daytime / If you see it once / You'll never be the same again / Gotta keep on running / Gonna have me some money / If it costs me my very last dime / If I wind up broke / Then I'll always remember that / I had a swingin' time / Oh, I'm gonna give it everything I've got / Lady Luck's with me, the dice stay hot / Got coke up my nose to dry away the snot, so / (Chorus) / Viva, viva Las Vegas
