1.SAILIN' ON

You don't want me anymore, so I'll just walk right out the door. Played a game right from the start, I trust you, you used me now my hearts all torn apart. So I'm sailin, well I'm sailin on. Well I'm movin, hey I'm movin on. Sail on, sail on. Try to see if I'll give up. But there wasn't any luck. It's a fact, fact of life. That's the games, games of strife. Everything is all in stride. There's too many years with too many tears, and too many days, with nothing to say, and how will we know when there's nowhere to grow. And what's the facts for life to show.


2.DON'T NEED IT

Don't need no ivory liquid. Don't want no afro sheen.
Don't need the latest fashions. Don't want my hair to smell clean.

I've got my automotion,
I've got that superpotion.
And if you think I'm going crazy,
Then pretty baby it might be true babe.

We don't need no first class. Don't need no second class.
All of the best-of, all that can kiss my ass.

I've got my claim to fame,
I've got that positive flame.
And if you think I'm going crazy,
Then pretty baby it might be you babe.


3.ATTITUDE

Don't care what they may say
We got that attitude!
Don't care what they may do
We got that attitude!
Hey, we got that P.M.A.!
Hey, we got the P.M.A.!
Hey, we got the P.M.A.!
Don't care what they may say
We got that attitude!
Don't care what they may do
We got that attitude!
Hey, we got that P.M.A.!
Hey, we got the P.M.A.!
Hey, we got the P.M.A.!
We got that attitude!
We got that attitude!
We got the P.M.A.!
We got that attitude!
We got the P.M.A.!
We got that attitude!


4.REGULATOR

You tell me what to say and when to say it,
You tell me what to do and how to do it,
And if I ask you why, you'll arrest me,
And if I call you lie, you'll detest me,
You control what I'll be, you control who I see,
And if I let you, you'll control me,
You're the man who owns all the keys to the stores,
You're the man who always wants so much more,
You're the Regulator,
You're the Regulator,
You're the Regulator,
You're the Regulator.


5.BANNED IN DC

Banned in D.C. with a thousand more places to go.
Gonna swim across the Atlantic, cause that's the only place I can go.

You, you can't hurt me, me I'm banned in D.C. D.C.

We, we got ourselves, gonna sing it, gonna love it, gonna work it out to any length.
Don't worry, no worry, about what people say.
We got ourselves, we gonna make it anyway.

You, you can't hurt me, why I'm banned in D.C. D.C.

And if you ban us from your clubs, it's the right time, with the right mind.
And if you think we really care, you won't find in my mind.
Ooh! Ooh! You can't afford, to close your doors, so soon no more.

7.SUPERTOUCH/SHITFIT

Some people look at me and talk about me like a clown
They just don't realize it's just my simple way to get down

I've got that supertouch
Chances are I've got too much
I've come to let you see
That you also can be free

It seems like everytime we all try to go underground
The stinkin' troopers them, they think that we are fooling around

We have had about enough
Now we're gonna get real tough
It happens everyday,
That's why we got P.M.A. (Positive Mental Attitudes)
We got - You got - You got
We got - We got - You got - You got

We can see most everything

We can see most everything

Undercover lover, that's my heart now
Struggle just in living, that's the realm of
Accept me as I'm not, and that's a shitfit

My best ain't good enough for you
My test is what you gonna do
Ain't no any kind of way

Now we've felt this, so you'll get yours now
Everybody's living and nobody's giving
And nobody gives a damn
You must understand me, the end is surely coming
Prepare for the final plan

People just pretending, that's a let down
Undercover lover, that's my heart now
Struggle just in living, that's the realm of
Accept me as i'm not, and that's a shitfit)


8.LEAVING BABYLON

Say I'm leaving this Babylon. It will not be too long. It will not be too long now. I said my people are starvin buyt your money's runnin. Your dollar, dollar drop down real low. You ain't got no gold to show. We gonna step right through that door. Not gonna come back no more.


9.FEARLESS VAMPIRE KILLERS

The bourgeoisie had better watch out for me. All throughout this so called nation, we don't want your filthy money, we don't need your innocent bloodshed. We just wanna end your world. Well my minds made up. Yes, it's time for you to pay, better watch out for me. I'm a member of the F.V.K.


10.I

Not as much but with such intensity. I'd like to be what they would not want me to be. I like to cram their chivalry inside their guts. I'd like to leave it all behind with the rest of the nuts. I, I. Not as muich but with more feeling now. I'd like to forget about you and try to break it somehow. I'd like to push it aside until I can see some more. I'd like to leave you where I found you lyin on the floor. I, I. I guess it's too bad, I guess it's too bad. I guess it's too bad, I gues its too bad for you. It seems the truth always prevails on your face and in the end I see what's in it's place. So in the future you just may see, that's what you'll receive is what you gave me.


11.BIG TAKEOVER

No one dared to show for that shower, when nobody turned out to be clean, was not even touched by the water, just another Nazi scheme.

Yeah, The Big Takeover yeah-ah-, My, big Takeover yeahh,yeahhh.

Walking around in total damnation, prepare yourself for the final quest. This world is doomed with a Jew segregration, still another Nazi threat!

Yeah, The Big Takeover yeah-ah-, My, the big Takeover yeahh-yeah-yeahhh.

You've gotta be right, you better take it.
If you don't act right, you'll never... make it!

So understand me when I say, there's no love for this U.S.A. This world is doomed with it's own segregation, Just another nazi test.

Yeah, The Big Takeover yeah-ah-, My Big Takeover yeahh,yeah-yeah.


12.PAY TO CUM

I make decision with precision
Lost inside this manned collision
Just to see that what is to be
Perfectly my fantasy

I came to know with now dismay
That in this world we all must pay
Pay to write, pay to play
Pay to cum, pay to fight

And all in time,
With just our minds
We soon will find
What's left behind

Not long ago when things were slow
We all got by with what we know
The end is near. Hearts filled with fear
Don't want to listen to what they hear

And so it's now we choose to fight
To stick up for our bloody right
The right to sing, the right to dance
The right is ours... We'll take the chance

A peace together
A piece apart
A piece of wisdom
From our hearts


13.RIGHT BRIGADE

You can't disappear anymore,
I see your face lurking outside the window,
You say you're a trife, I'm a bore,
You touch yourself put your face in the pillow,
But the funny thing about you is,
You remembered to leave it behind,
And the funny thing about me is,
I'm a member of the Right Brigade,
Makes no difference to me what side you choose,
What side will lose,
All there is to perceive is what I want,
And I know how to get it,
But the funny thing about you is,
You remembered to leave it behind,
And the funny thing about me is,
I'm a member of the Right Brigade.

14.I LUV I JAH

Walking down babylon lane. Trying to live my life in peace. Two young men call me not their brother, try to make me feel ashamed. But I luv I jah yeah, he tell me not to be that way. I luv I jah, yeah, I gotta keep my PMA. My lovely sister, judge me by my closthes, yeah. Only to learn to her mistake not everyone's alike. We're not all a uptight. Ah no fuss no fight. Cool that way, cool that way. I luv I jah.
