1. NEW SONG

Closed books is what some people's minds are like
Shut tight, new ideas, they just always get passed by
Prejudice, living in their thoughts and deeds
Ignoring all the other people's needs

You say a double standard's ok
I'm telling you that this is insane
What is it that you've got in your fist
Could it be another one of your lists

Noone else can do the job just right
Unless they're Anglo Saxon white
Foolish, the minds that have this attitude
You can't judge everybody by that rule

You say a double standard's ok
I'm telling you that this is insane
What is it that you've got in your fist
Could it be another one of your lists

No place in this country for this
Everyone has to have an equal place
Nazis, they lost it forty years ago
Rednecks just realize this a little slow

You say a double standard's ok
I'm telling you that this is insane
What is it that you've got in your fist
Could it be another one of your lists


2. CRITICAL MASS

The bio-sphere, the place we live
It seems like we don't give a damn
Other species flushed down the tubes
We need another race to rape
The way we live we will destroy
Every other living thing
'Til none are left except our race
And then we will destroy ourselves

Another oil spill
Atomic waste displaced
Another forest dies
Bring on the acid rain

Slightly insane, the type of greed
That makes a world unfir for life
Toxic wastes destroy the seas
While poison gas pollutes the air
A waste of life, while no one cares
The earth becomes a giant tomb
Critical mass will be achieved
And ruins will be all that's left

Another oil spill
Atomic waste displaced
Another forest dies

A Hell on Earth, what we create
Dragging life to death with us
All living things destroyed or used
By shortsighted human beeings
We do these things, let them be done
Apathy creates despair
The damage done will be too great
The world wounded beyond repair

Another oil spill
Atomic waste displaced
Another forest dies


3. INHERITED HELL

A time in the future, not too far away
The death of our world, we are told
Destroyed by neglect, now breeding despair
The home of mankind is despoiled
Polluted oceans, unbreathable air
The life of the land under siege
Cancer is spreading and wasting the world
And mankind is now the disease

Look upon the world you knew
And say goodbye, it dies with you
Those who live when we are dead
Will curse our names, they 've inherited Hell

The forests are gone and the ocean destroyed
The world we once knew now is dead
The animals slaughtered, wild life in its grave
The sun burns too bright overhead
Cities collapsing and famine runs rampant
A nightmare where once there was life
Radiation and toxins a part of the children
Who will hate us until they die

We never stopped to think or reflect
On what we have done to the world
The heritage we live our children is Hell
A short life in pain what we mold
We've squandered resources and wasted the land
And left little for those to come
They will have nothing to claim for their own
Except for the Hell we have shown


4. SURGERY

Wires drilled into my head
Tubes inserted in my neck
Toxins pumped into my veins
This treatments inhumane

Strapped to a table head and foot
Eyes blindfolded, i can't look
My life is all i've left to choose
As your scalpel makes its move

What have i done to deserve this?
Give up your cruel practices
When this nightmare runs it's course
You throw away my useless corpse


5. EMERGENCY

Alcohol and pills, a night with some thrills
Go out with my friends and leave a good will
Some smoke and some buff, now I'm so tough
My ignorant habit gets deeper and deeper
I'm Batman, i'm Robin, i'm Bonnie & Clyde
For truth and justice, the American way
Now i've become what i wanted to be
But i can't face reality

Emergency (2x)

I've come a long way, do you hear what i say
There's no need to bother with an education
My school grades are dropping and i've lost my job
The pain in my soul gets weaker and weaker
The party has started it's Saturday night
Time to strech my imagination
The darkness of night, a bright flashing light
There's no turning back, it's time to die

Emergency (4x)

An ambulance ride to a hospital bed
Feel such an effort to open my eyes
An four tube, some hypo shots
My blood is polluted with conflicting drugs
The last thing i see as the darkness drops down
I am surrounded by nervous doctors
My body grows cold, my eyes won't stay open
Finally my heart stops it's useless stuggle


6. FUNKY NOISE

(instrumental)


7. F: (WAKE UP)

What have you been doing with yourself these years
I really think that you have no idea
You waste your time and pass your days with no pursuits
You take no interest in what's going on

One day, on your own
All your life you've been afraid
Of success and defeat
You've made your life a living Hell

Wake up (4x)

I think that you should take a look around
You'd be surprised at what you see
There's a world out there you never learned
It may be time to learn some new ideas

One day, on your own
All your life you've been afraid
Of success and defeat
You've made your life a living Hell

Wake up (4x)

Now is not the time to hide out in a cave
Or stick your head into the sand
It's time to face life on your feet and on your terms
Respect yourself or noone will

One day, on your own
All your life you've been afraid
Of success and defeat
You've made your life a living Hell

Wake up (4x)


8. WHEN FREEDOM DIES

United in a time, a time of need
Against a common foe, the enemy
The years of death endured, the years of pain
Against an evil force, a force not sane

We become the enemy
When freedom dies for security

And then the world endured, a victory won
Against an insane man and his cohorts
But once the war was done, blind fear prevailed
And years of darkness came, freedom was nailed

We become the enemy
When freedom dies for security

We let our freedom die, we let it wane
We feared an enemy's atomic rain
But what was on our minds, what we became
We and the enemy
We are the same

We become the enemy
When freedom dies for security
We become the enemy
When freedom dies for security


9. SEARCH & SEIZURE

Up in the morning, feeling alive
Not in the mood for ordeals
Get in my car just to go for a ride
Another day at the wheel
Bang into third
Tachometer rises to three thousand rpm
Look into the rear view mirror and lo and behold
Oh fudge, not again

Search and seizure (2x)

What does he want me for?
What did i do?
I never break any laws
The lights are flashing
The sirens scream
My heart hits a moment of pause
I pull to the side
He pulls up behind
The moment of truth is not far
With his gun drawn and expressionless eyes
He says "wanna step out of the car?"

Search and seizure (2x)

Out on bail, back in my home
I think i'll hang in tonight
They can't touch me behind these walls
It's there i'll be safe tonight
Quarter past four
A knock at the door
I wonder who could be there
It's New Jersey's finest, you're under arrest
Come with us, longhair

Search and seizure (4x)


10. TORTURE TACTICS

Walk the path of hate
Leave others to their fate
Never looking back
Never feel regret

Alone you stand
Alone you fall

Feel no pity nor shame
Mercy, you have none
Fear the revolt will come
Your laws come from a gun

Alone you stand
Alone you fall

The tread of boots they fear
The passbooks they must bear
Freedom, they have none
Their only law, a gun

Alone you stand
Alone you fall

They walk the path oppressed
Their only one release is death
Perhaps their day will come
Then they will have the guns

Alone you stand
Alone you fall


11. MOTHER'S DAY

(No lyrics available)


12. TRAIL OF TEARS

Another day has passed you by
And now it seems that you don't care
You've let your life slip away
You feel no pain, you feel no joy
You've let your feelings fade away
You've let life tear apart your soul

Feel no pain (2x)

You must wake up and perceive
That you are not a victim here
You're a traveller through this life
Noone persecuted you
You've brought it down upon yourself
And now you're standing on the edge

Feel no pain (2x)

Take a look at where you are
And then look back to where you were
And think of how you got there
Work at repairing your life
You can't just throw it all away
You've got to stick it to the end

Feel no pain (2x)
