1. WE'RE THE PIST

Our rights have been denied too long
Get off you ass and sing this song
Smash a bottle, hit the streets
Prepared for anything we meet…

Chorus:
We're the kids you can't put down
We're the kids who've been around
We're the ones who break the mold
We're the Pist, the young and old…
We're the ones society hates
We're the kids who'll smash the state
We're the one who don't fit in
We're the Pist, the punks and skins.

Fuck the nazis' white pride lies
We'll be dead before we sympathize
With racist hatred ignorance
And mindless blind obedience!

Chorus

P for Punk, the attitude not the music
I for Intelligence, we're not afraid to use it
S for Strength, to stand up and resist
T for thousands of people feeling PIST!

Have you heard enough of their lies?
It's time for us to organize
Do you fit in their society?
Or do you feel pist like me?


2. TEXTBOOK SALVATION

I sat in your classroom and listened to you say
Resign your mind to what's assigned and learn to think our way
Consume this useless data and repeat it back to me
Incorporate; regurgitate: Straight A philosophy

You are the system the red, white and blue
The lies you are teaching now start to show through


Speak only when you're spoken to and never raise your voice
Implant submission in the youth while they still have no choice
Input equals output, bullshit in means bullshit out
A wealth of worthless facts won't help you find what life's about

You are the system we hold in contempt
And we close our minds to the lies you present

Textbook Salvation: calculated imagination
Textbook Salvation: we'll accept no deviation
Textbook Salvation: you call this an education?
Textbook Salvation: mandatory suffocation…

I defy your backwards system, and shout my heresies
Education through life's frustration exposed your inadequacies
Input equals output, nothing in means nothing out
If you can't teach about real life, then what are we learning about?

You are the system which we attack
While you stand behind us you stab us in the back.
