1. BRA(I)NDE(A)D

We’re slashing our overheads
Could save a billion if we hire the dead
Don’t see the reason for your ‘ethical’ rage
It’s not like they’re asking a living wage

Well we’ve got plans to incorporate you all
We’ll ship it out for retail to the all-consuming hordes
We’re cutting out the middleman
A rotting death’s-head is lurking beneath the brand

You’re all grist to the mill

Cane-field, sweatshop, has it really changed?
We turn a healthy profit from these stiffs we degrade
A trudging grey-faced army of worker drones
Fingers already worn right down to the bone

Well we’ve got plans to incorporate you all
We’ll ship it out for retail to the all-consuming hordes
We’re cutting out the middleman
A rotting death’s-head is lurking beneath the brand

This ain’t no standard business practise
It’s something nasty we’ve contracted


2. THE CREATURE SPEAKS…

Wakening into a world of woe
I know my maker has a heart of stone
Cursed creator can you hear me scream?
Wherefore hast thou forsaken me?
Sutured, genomed, bolt through my neck
Perfectly crafted to fit your job spec
Stapled together piece by piece
Your masterwork turned out to be a fucking freak

Electric surges animated my limbs
Blood was pumped in, I started to sin
Existing in pain, haggard and lame
Rehearsed the same crimes again, and again, and again
I just longed to be taken for what I am
Man manufactured to meet your demand
Made in your image, distorted mirror
Spark dashed out of your brain

Cursed creator breathe your last
Savour the final fruits of arrogance
Thankless existence wantonly bestowed
You’ll never escape my stranglehold
Given life to fulfil your dream
Condemned to err in darkness as a nightmare fiend
Wretched creation left to suffer
I’m gonna kill you motherfucker

This creature kills, twisted and bereft
His vengeance will glut the maw of death


3. DAWN OF THE DEAD
Billions of blind dead blinkered eyes
Bad brains possessed by their own desires
Unthinking humans become machines
Blankly repeating a dead routine
Numb disregard for the starving shades
Our backs are turned on their shallow graves
Shunning the leprous dispossessed
Emaciated children of living death

This is the dawn of the dead

Kneejerk reactions of brute reflex
Accelerate this climate of violence
Aggression festering like a poison wound
As a murderous obsession grips the multitude
Civilians lacerated by shattered dreams
Weep bleed and scream in the cemetery
Frantic humanity running scared
Abandons all hope and bows to despair

The human brain, a pleasure garden of unending delight
Unceasing possibility
Its myriad combinations, its galaxies of synaptic sparks
The most complex phenomenon known to man
Yet still so fucking tasty
A universe confined within this shell of bone
But it’s all meat to me
If we can only look outside these walls
Think of what we might achieve
Imagine a coffin thrust apart by flowering weeds
Use it while yours lasts


4. PARTYTIME (45 GRAVE COVER)

Very young, gettin’ kicks
Cruisin’ around, ’56
Drinkin’ beer, drivin’ fast
This party is their last

They’ll dance on the graves
Sparin’ soul, savin’ slaves
They don’t know the acid rain
Is comin’ down to make ’em insane

Do you wanna party?
It’s party time
We gotta party
It’s party time

They never had the chance

Shiftin’ gears, wastin’ gas
This party is a blast
Paid their wage, seems to me
“That’s life” is what the dead say


5. KICKSTART MY HEART (MÖTLEY CRÜE COVER)

When I get high
I get high on speed
Top fuel funny car’s
A drug for me
My heart, my heart
Kickstart my heart
Always got the cops
Coming after me
Custom built bike doing 103
My heart, my heart
Kickstart my heart

Ooh, are you ready girls?
Ooh, are you ready now?
Whoa, yeah
Kickstart my heart
Give it a start
Whoa, yeah, baby

Whoa, yeah
Kickstart my heart
Hope it never stops
Whoa, yeah, baby
Yeah

Skydive naked
From an aeroplane
Or a lady with a
Body from outer space
My heart, my heart
Kickstart my heart
Say I got trouble
Trouble in my eyes
I’m just looking for another good time
My heart, my heart
Kickstart my heart

Yeah, are you ready girls?
Yeah, are you ready now?

Whoa, yeah
Kickstart my heart
Give it a start
Whoa, yeah, baby
Whoa, yeah
Kickstart my heart
Hope it never stops
Whoa, yeah, baby

Kickstart my heart

When we started this band
All we needed, needed was a laugh
Years gone by…
I’d say we’ve kicked some ass
When I’m enraged
Or hittin’ the stage
Adrenaline rushing
Through my veins
And I’d say we’re still kickin’ ass

I said, ooh, ah
Kickstart my heart
Hope it never stops
And to think, we did all of this to rock

Whoa, yeah
Kickstart my heart
Give it a start
Whoa, yeah, baby

Whoa, yeah
Kickstart my heart
Hope it never stops
Whoa, yeah, baby

Okay, boys, let’s rock the house


6. 100 FIGHTING DOGS (MY WAR COVER)

The world’s worst sicken blood lust
Glass shard curse
Dive in head-first
Detached lives
Filled with lies
I’ll crucify bleed your brains dry

My blood is boiling
Burning beyond belief
This never-ending frustration is taking over
I’d love to hold you
And twist my hands around your neck
You need to feel the pain I’ve felt
It’s taking over

Sickness
Incorporating fear
Sickness
You’re too fucking near
I say
You’ll all be dead tomorrow
I know
I can’t fucking wait

I am waiting
Confined in these walls
Ripping into
Shredding thoughts of
Mindless violence
Killing time so
I can unleash
The fury of
100 fighting dogs


7. REVENANTS

You cut us down but we will fuck you up
We’ll creep in through the door you thought locked
There’s not way you’ll erase this hateful blot
Living dolls from the valley that time forgot

You buried us as far down as you could
You made yourself believe we were gone for good
But no, unruly dead, wave after wave
Smash screaming through your barricade

Revenants
Re: Vengeance

This hateful stench of something rotten
Death-musk of the skeletons in your closet
Immerse yourself in the sweetest of dreams
There’s no way you can ever drown out our screams

Rising from the ground, you’ll never keep us down
Rising from the ground, you’ll never keep us out

Back from the grave with a vengeance
Hell to pay / We rise again / Hell to pay
’til none but dead remain


8. ZOMBIFIED

Zombies rise, take their fill,
Burning with the need to kill
Hunger drives them on to homicide
Bloodlust burns in their eyes,
Eagerly consuming lives
They must destroy, for what else is their life?

Try and convince yourself that you are not like them
Sleepwalking through your life in a kind of living death
Brainwashed, drooling, obsessed with the gratification of your own lust
Flocking to consume the object you need, the object dictated by your endless must

See them rush to consume, blindly grasping out for food
Helplessly enslaved by basic drives
Cannibals, murdering, unreasoning brutality
These hordes of braindead killers will destroy all life

Television, mobile homes, all these things we need to own
Lust and greed becomes our way of life
Mindlessly consuming more, our hearts are rotten to the core
The human race is getting to be zombified

Try and convince yourself that you are not like them
Sleepwalking through your life in a kind of living death
Brainwashed, drooling, obsessed with the gratification of your own lust
Flocking to consume the object you need, the object dictated by your endless must

We’re zombified!


9. SEND MORE PARAMEDICS

I just ate a delicious brain
I’m ordering the same again
Come on dispatch, no time to lose
You’d better send some extra crews

We’re covered to our eyes in gore
This carnage will not stop ’til dawn
We’re munching medics by the score
So make that call

It’s time we all ate some brains
