1. RISE FROM THE ASHES

Am I dreaming am I alive
The final war I did survive

One of the chosen one of the few
A world in ruins because of who

Now you look around
See the world in ruins
Those few who survive
No begin again
Leaders soon arise
Factions splitting off
Liars soon come again
Life is hell again


2. BRAINWASHED

Radio, an insidious form
Helps shape your thoughts making you conform
Programming music easy listening
Help you achieve that moronic grip
Playing you regurgitated pap
Selling products that are mostly crap
Rarely hearing music you want to hear
It bas an effect over all these years

Why don't you think for yourself
Live in this self made Hell

Television the idiot tube
Helps to raise our children as fools
Watch the news see what they want you to see
Our awareness is limited by network
Moronic sit-coms and one-sided news
Alter your feeling give you conformist views
Why can't you get that garbage out of your head
You'd better off to read a good book instead

Why don't you think for yourself
Live in this self made Hell

Newspapers, what do they say
Not much I think when they want school kids to pray
Getting the facts from some daily news
You hate the system but adhere to its view
Blaming the dead because they can't complain
Shielding officials holding them above
You'd better wake up and see what's plain to see
Or end up a willing part of the machine

Why don't you think for yourself
Live in this self made Hell
Why don't you think for yourself
Live in this self made Hell


3. F#

Searching for a new way you're looking
For a way out of this mess
You've let build up around you

Believe what you see
Believe what you hear

It's time to take charge of your on life
And start making decisions
Stop relying on others

Believe what you see
Believe what you hear

Listen to what others have to say
But don't take their word as law
You've got a mind of your own

Believe what you see
Believe what you hear

You take too much advice you listen
Too much to others who think
They know better than you do

Believe what you see
Believe what you hear
Believe what you see
Believe what you hear


4. SURVIVE

Now we'll see what remains on this word
Only the strong will survive
A hopeless end for those without the will
Only the strong will survive

Now we'll see what remains
For the weak there's not much
Now we'll see what remains
For the weak there's not much

A hopeless end for those without the will
Only the strong will survive
The Nuclear age has left it's mark
Only the strong will survive

Now we'll see what remains
For the weak there's not much
Now we'll see what remains
For the weak there's not much

Now we'll see what remains on this word
Only the strong will survive
A hopeless end for those without the will
Only the strong will survive

Now we'll see what remains
For the weak there's not much
Now we'll see what remains
For the weak there's not much

Now we'll see what remains
For the weak there's not much
Now we'll see what remains
For the weak there's not much


5. FIGHT TO BE FREE

I am sick and tired of the way you've let things slide
Just because we're young doesn't mean we can't decide
If you think that we ain't got a thought inside our heads
I'm telling you right now that you better think again

Now we'll see what we can do for ourselves
It's time for us to show some concern
I'm sick of your goddamned apathy
It's time to stand up and make yourself free

You have held us back and pushed us down for all our lives
When it comes to running things you've done a half-assed job
It is time you learned it's what you do not what you say
And if you refuse to learn we're gonna make you pay

Now we'll see what we can do for ourselves
It's time for us to show some concern
I'm sick of your goddamned apathy
It's time to stand up and make yourself free

Viet-Nam and Lebanon other peoples wars
I won't fight unless it's right corporate wars no-more
I believe this country's worth my life to help defend
I won't fight to help keep the Dow Jones out of the red

I am sick and tired of the way you've let things slide
Just because we're young doesn't mean we can't decide
If you think that we ain't got a thought inside our heads
I'm telling you right now that you better think again

Now we'll see what we can do for ourselves
It's time for us to show some concern
I'm sick of your goddamned apathy
It's time to stand up and make yourself free


6. GOT ANOTHER QUARTER

Instrumental


7. GREAT DEPRESSION

You're always sticking your nose into my life I wish you would leave me alone
Why can't you just shut your mouth and keep your mind off my life and onto your own

Why can't you leave me alone I don't want your goddamned help
I don't recall asking you to stick your nose in my life
Why can't you mind your own fucking business leave my life alone
This is my life to live

Maybe I've got problems but I've also got a mind to selve them by myself
I don't want to hear your answers they don't apply so just keep them to yourself

Why can't you leave me alone I don't want your goddamned help
I don't recall asking you to stick your nose in my life
Why can't you mind your own fucking business leave my life alone
This is my life to live

Take your help and shove it you don't have all of the answers I have some as well
I tell you right now if you don't stop you'll put me inside of a white padded cell

Why can't you leave me alone I don't want your goddamned help
I don't recall asking you to stick your nose in my life
Why can't you mind your own fucking business leave my life alone
This is my life to live


8. WIRED

An evil seed lurks in your mind
Coiled restlessly in your soul
A dark force that you cannot deny
It tries to rip apart your soul

A hateful lust taking over your mind
Destroying you destroying your life
A hateful lust taking over your mind
Destroying you destroying your life

You were hooked when you were young
Unaware of what would unfold
Realizing far too late
You'd become a thing of hate

A hateful lust taking over your mind
Destroying you destroying your life
A hateful lust taking over your mind
Destroying you destroying your life

Now you face your life without fear
Free from unnatural needs
This dark chapter of your life now closed
This evil thing deceased

A hateful lust taking over your mind
Destroying you destroying your life
A hateful lust taking over your mind
Destroying you destroying your life

A hateful lust
Destroying you


9. EQUAL RIGHTS

Prejudice is just another way of saying ignorant
Describing morons narrow mind and losers bloody frozen heart
People who can't see past skin or see what's a good man's head
Closed up thinking backwards mind all thought paralysed
Using any argument cause you don't want to use your head
Keeping evil ways alive even though they should have died
Freedom is a human right skin don't matter black or white

Equal rights - human rights
Equal rights - human rights
Equal rights - human rights
Equal rights - human rights

Martin hunter a great man who wanted people to be sane
Killed by frightened ignorance even though it was too late
His message seems to be quite clear why should we be ruled by fear
With his death a great man died but you can't kill his ideals
Let us leave behind us all these stupid racial arguments
Help make racial wars a distant unforgotten memory
Maybe hate will never die that doesn't mean we shouldn't try

Equal rights - human rights
Equal rights - human rights
Equal rights - human rights
Equal rights - human rights

Prejudice is just another way of saying ignorant
Describing morons narrow mind and losers bloody frozen heart
People who can't see past skin or see what's a good man's head
Closed up thinking backwards mind all thought paralysed
Using any argument cause you don't want to use your head
Keeping evil ways alive even though they should have died
Freedom is a human right skin don't matter black or white

11. TECHNOLOGY

Look around tell me what you see
We are products of technology
The nuclear age has left its mark
It's up to us to avoid the dark

You don't care what's around
You you're blind and deaf
Just sit back and watch TV
Don't care what you're seeing
Whey can't you look around
And see your surroundings
Learn to think for yourself
Do something for yourself

Hear without listening see without seeing
Ignoring parts of reality
I'm wasting my time I'm wasting my breath
On people who choose ignorance


12. GOOD TIMES BAD TIMES

In the days of my youth I was told what it means to be a man
Now I've reached that age I try to do all those things the best I can
No matter how I try I find my way to the same old jam

Good times bad times you know I've had my share
When my woman left home with a one-eyed man and I still don't seem to care

Sixteen I fell in love with a girl as sweet as could be
It only took a couple days till she was rid of me
She swore that she would be all mine love me till the end
When I whispered in her ear I lost another friend

Good times bad times you know I've had my share
When my woman left home with a one-eyed man and I still don't seem to care

I know what it means to be alone
I sure do wish I was at home
I don't care what the neighbors say
I'm gonna love you each and every day
You can feel the beat within my heart
Realize sweet babe we ain't ever gonna part
