Lyrics

1. LOW LIFE

Spat on and shat on kicked in the face
Told i'm an arsehole a fucking disgrace
Filthy, i'm dirty i smell like a pig
Take one step closer i'll give you a dig

Low life
Low life

Lie and i cheat and i mug for my fun
Don't feel the pain until i am gone
Burn, maim and kill you, the way that i am
Angry, frustrated, today's modern man

Shoot, sniff and smoke
Drugs by the score
Invent a new one
I've got to have more
Bombarded with things of what i should be
I'm sick of them all i just got to be me

[Solo: Mike]

Back in a corner prepared for a fight
Stab you, i'll shoot you, i'll set you alight
Freedom i need is at the end of a gun
I now have respect and fear of no-one

Low life
Low life

Bullets and blood on the day that i die
Taking them with me with no reason why
Don't sigh with relief as i lie ripped and torn
With my violent death there's another been born


2. CHAIN OF COMMAND

Pointed towers skyward bound
Missile control deep in the ground
Hooded figures start to walk
Huddle round afraid to talk

Subdued lighting, screaming alarms
this fortress has deathly charms
One man has the ultimate power
To decide the zero hour

Chain of Command starts to rattle
Control is ready for battle
Warhead is screaming its joy
Down from the skies to destroy

Instigator sign on your back
Star the attack
No Looking back

[Solo: Mike]

People panic in the east
Cities crumble piece by piece
White hot metal, falling ash
When the super powers clash

Mushroom clouds in the sky
At last the world condemned to die
Acid dust burns your face
Signals the end of the human race

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]


3. ROOM 101

Drawn to the entrance the land of my dreams
Everything's made up, it's not what it seems
Lying, faking
Peaceful surroundings, Utopia calls
Pleasure and freedom is what i recall

Chorus:
101 Calling Me
101 Tempting Me
101 Beckoning Me

Visions of paradise, Room 101
Hope springs eternal, illusions have gone
Misconception
Stretched on the rack for the crimes in my mind
Blurring my Visions, now four turns to five

[Chorus]
[Chorus]

[Solo: Mike]

Come to their senses, return to good health
Falling to live for myself
Take no more torture, set free from the pain
Back in, the system again

[Chorus]
[Chorus]


4. CONDEMNED TO ETERNITY

(Instrumental)


5. SHOCK TREATMENT

A means of escape
So far out of reach
I won't ask you questions
A lesson I'll teach

Changing my feelings
No chance to survive
Why must they do this?
Just leae me to die

Shock, burning
Deep inside my brain
Shock, turning
Me insane

A shock to the system
Im back on the rack
Sending me senseless
Im fading to black

Connect the electrodes
A belt down my spine
Death is on my shoulder
Im on borrowed time


6. BURIED ALIVE

Trapped by these four walls
But I need to be
Out on my own can't they see
No way to alter
The words that they say
But why must they treat me this way
Forcing feeling into my head
Increasing my will to escape
But now its clear to me
How I must leave
Not realising my big mistake

Now that the bell rings
Its time I must leave
My own grave awaits me
Plunged Into darkness
And what I can't see
My only hope lies here with me
Trapped help me
Trapped alive

[Solo: Mike]

Trapped here please help me
Now there's no escape
Forced into paying for my own mistake
Frightened and desperate
No chanceto survive
Scratching and screaming
Im buried alive

[Solo: Mike]


7. TECHNO FEAR

Thinking machines changed my life
Forgotten how life used to be
Connected to each thing I own
Restricted from having my say
Digitaö read-outs and technical data
Spewing from unmanned machines
Faceless and black as they probe into you
Programmed to curfew your view

Techno fear pushing for world domination
Techno fear
Techno fear controlled by our own creation
Techno fear

Our lifes become Insecure
They decide now that they don't need us
Bloodshed as heartless machines
Cut down the worlds population
Increased Inhumanity comes into view
Trapped by this technical force
Thinking machines turn to killing machines
No control over bloodthirsty thoughts

[Repeat Chorus]

[Solo: Mike]

[Repeat Verse 1]

[Chorus]


8. WHAT THE FUNK

(Instrumental)


9. SAY YOUR PRAYERS

I Lose my job, a hopeless case
Back in the queue, a nameless face
There's debts to pay, today's the day
No second chance, to find a way
Can't pay for food, can't pay the rent
'Cause of all the money i have spent
I Come to town, you're not around
I'll chase you up, i'll hunt you down

[Chorus:]
Say your prayers
Say your prayers

Your rates are high, extorting me
I'll pay in time, just leave me be
You've signed the deal, you understood
To pay on time or pay in blood
I Can't cough up, you said you would
I Need more time, my word is good
Now today has finally come
To pack my bags and make a run

[Repeat Chorus]

Increasing rates, i can't keep up
Out of hope and out of luck
Borrowed more to pay the debt
I took the chance, but lost the bet

[Solo: Mike]

(Repeat Chorus)
