Combustion

It’s just a little prick, it goes into your brain
I’m sorry, mister if it’s driving you insane
My daddy says it’s what do just to survive
But I will admit it makes me feel alive
I feel it turning in me
I feel it churning in me
I feel it squirming in me
I feel it burning in me
I’m just a little spark that burst into a flame
I know you’re angry but we’re not the ones to blame
You gave us power then destroyed us when we thrived
When there’s nowhere left to run there’s no more reason left to hide
I feel it turning in me
I feel it churning in me
I feel it squirming in me
I feel it burning in me

Teratoma
01:34
|

|
I am a monster
We are a beast
Can’t control the creature’s need to feast
The constant hunger
The endless nights
The haunted faces filled with fright
Teratoma is my only friend
Teratoma with me till the end
Teratoma knows my shame
Teratoma shares my blame
We are a demon
Born of two souls
Nothing short of death can make us whole
I feel him growing
Inside of me
Teratoma will not set me free
Teratoma is my only friend
Teratoma with me till the end
Teratoma knows my shame
Teratoma shares my blame

Hello Murder
01:58
|
|||
|
Gotta get away
Get away from it all
To sleepaway camp
Answer nature's call
Tommy got grabby
"Not here" I said
By the next morning
Tommy lost his head
Hello murder, hello father
Why do they even bother
Led like lambs to the slaughter
Hello murder, hello father
Susie got caught smoking
That rotten liar
Tried to pin it on me
Now her pants're on fire
Rick wanted to neck
But I gave him the chop
I've got a taste for it now
And I don't wanna stop
Hello murder, hello father
What was your son is now your daughter
Led like lambs to the slaughter
Hello murder, hello father

Let's save the skatepark
Let's save the skatepark
From pop shirt collared shirt jerk amalgamated
Let's save the skatepark
Let's save the skatepark
From rich old white guy incorporated
We'll have a car wash with some punk rock girls
To raise some money to survive
We'll have a kissing booth
That won't seem problematic
At least until 2005
Let's save the skatepark
Let's save the skatepark
From pop shirt collared shirt jerk amalgamated
Let's save the skatepark
Let's save the skatepark
From rich old white guy incorporated
We'll have a hip hop jump rope breakdance crew
They'll pop and lock into your heart
We'll have a montage
Where we say we're all a family
And greed could never tear us apart
Let's save the skatepark
Let's save the skatepark
Generic punk rock words
Let's save the skatepark
Let's save the skatepark
Let's save the skatepark
You've heard this all before
Let's save the skatepark
You've heard this all before
Let's save the skatepark

Don't Poke That Rock
01:14

Don't poke that rock, little buddy
It came down from outer space
It's glowing green and it's looking mean
And it'll melt the skin right off your face
And the sheriff he'll just ignore you
He thinks it's just another prank
Till the army comes rolling in
And it eats its way through a tank
And they'll never believe what you have to say
Just put that stick down and walk away
You got your girl, you're trying to impress her
But now she's just a pile of goo
It chewed some homes and a savings and loan
And now it's looking right at you
Shouldn't have touched that rock, little buddy
You may have just sealed our fate
Everybody thinks that it's just a joke
Let's hope that it's not too late
And they'll never believe what you have to say
Just put that stick down and walk away
And they'll never believe what you have to say
Just put that stick down and walk away

Atomic Brain
01:14
|
|||
|
Created in a lab to be a killing machine
Let loose on a city that was unsuspecting
Built in preparation for the perfect crime
Cracking skulls and then safes and robbing you blind
I am the man with the atomic brain
Gamma rays have driven me insane
Try to stop me, it will all be in vain
I am the man with the atomic brain
Treating every vault like it’s a candy store
Angry and invincible and settling scores
My maker thinks I’m stupid and I cannot resist
But he’s unaware that he’s next on my list
I am the man with the atomic brain
Gamma rays have driven me insane
I feel no pleasure, I feel no pain
I am the man with the atomic brain

Uzis (feat. Diya Craft)
01:14
|

|
Daddy would have gotten us uzis
Not these stupid lame Mac-10s
I just wanna see my boyfriend
I don’t care if the world’s about to end
Finding it kinda hard to adjust
When all that’s left in the world is anger and lust
And the people that I loved are now a pile of dust
Trying to be brave, trying to seem nonplussed, but
Daddy would have gotten us uzis
Daddy would have bought us Porsches
Not these stupid motorbikes
I just wanna have one more party
Before my head ends up on a pike
Kidnapped again and I’m starting to get pissed
Everybody keeps saying they’re a scientist
And they’re telling me my blood could be a cure for this
But I’m feeling like an item on a shopping list
I just wish my daddy was here
He’d pat me on the head and say there’s nothing to fear
Then he’d open up his wallet and make this all disappear
It’s so real
It’s all too real
Daddy would have gotten us uzis

Phase IV
03:33
|
|||
|
In the dark of the desert
Beyond the swirling sands
A message from the stars
Now seven monuments stand
They searched for perfection
And found humanity flawed
So they looked to the insects
And turned them into gods
Phase one
Phase two
Phase three
Phase four
We tried to reach them with science
They responded with force
Now we make our last stand
To turn them back at the source
But what we thought was war
Was all part of the plan
To push the next evolution
Between ant and man
Phase one
Phase two
Phase three
Phase four
Phase one
(they bargain with our lives)
Phase two
(demand a sacrifice)
Phase three
(the promise paradise)
Phase four
(it all just leads us on to phase five)

Moxie is when space vampires blow through town, leaving everyone you love dead, and you strap on bandolier filled with stakes, and hit the road for a little old fashioned vengeance. Bullet Machine - full of moxie, and ready to roll. ... more
