2: Angry Neurotic Catholics
I'm suffering from depression
the anger turned within
what do I gain for all my pain
perhaps a seat in heaven?
Don't do what you want
do what you're taught is right
your life is built on paranoia and guilt
don't forget your valium tonight
The agony I must endure
my mind is painful and swells
the punishment for what I've done
is forever the pains of hell
how come what is natural
has to be a sin?
why would God give me this urge
if I cannot give in?
they say don't give up
that Jesus loves me
I went down into my basement
confused and depressed
put Black Sabbath on
razor blade in hand
a Wilkinson I think
ten slashes on each arm
my only wrongdoing
was being born human
and following my instincts
I never was happy
I never was sane
so I shall be extinct
the growing pool of crimson
at last I am pure
witness my sanguineous penance
I don't need anyone
my soul's been set free
death is total independence
stand up straight
stomach in
shoulders back
sound off
Angry Neurotic Catholics
It's a sin
Angry Neurotic Catholics
It's a sin
3: Suck My Dick
You don't like the clothes I wear
I'll shave my head or grow my hair
what makes you look over here
what are you, queer?
S.M.D.
S.M.D.
S.M.D.
You call my music sonic poison
turn it down it's annoying
but it gives me pleasure to aggravate
the ones I hate
Walking down the street a bottle
grazes off your head
from a window someone laughing
spitting on your head
find a weapon bash their skulls in
don't they make you sick
kill these fuckin' pricks!
Skins and bangers joining fight as one
those who persecute battle 'till they've won
tired of being pressured
to join their plastic army
you conforming clones will be sorry
SUCK
I won't change for anyone
MY
Keep fighting 'till I'm done
DICK
I 've gotta right to be myself
and you can go fuck yourself
4: Ground Zero Brooklyn
Home watching Star Trek
everything's o.k.
little do I know
Soviet missiles are on the way
the bastards set loose
the wardogs Tyr and Loki
weatherman's predicting rain
but fire it'll be
Minutemen launching, Air-sirens haunting
Warheads detonating, Cremating
I'm living at - Ground Zero
I'm dying at
I'm burning at
I'm frying at
From my bed I hear the sirens
screaming of foreboding
populous escaping highways overloading
bridge is down tunnel's flooded
only got six minutes
head between my legs I kiss my balls goodbye
they're finished
MX's blasting, Skyscrapers crashing
Fallout liberated, We're wasted
Jesus I beg of thee
don't take my life
return me to the womb
from which I was torn
birth is a sin
and the punishment is death
I wish you had left me unborn
I shit my pants as I wait for the reaper
lie in fetal position
tears stream down my cheeks
as I call out for my mother
and say an act of contrition
we'll fight this war with germs and atoms
destroy our only home
our mutated descendants battle the next
with sticks and stones
Are we not savages
innately destined to maim and kill?
blame it on the environment
heredity or evolution we're still responsible
our intelligence may progress
at geometric rates
yet socially we remain belligerent neonates
5: Race War
Black against white
yellow versus red
the fighting won't stop
until we're all dead
Burning, looting, riots destroy the masses
Nightfall, brings death, city reduced to ashes
Don't call me your brother
'cause I ain't your fucking brother
we fell from different cunts
and your skins an ugly color
Race War
we're going to a race war
Hate War
we're going to a hate war
Bloodshed, rampage, torture is not subsiding
Chaos, bedlam, violent ethnic uprising
Moslems against Christians
and the Arabs versus Jews
the Catholic and Protestants
no one wins we all lose
Everybody's gonna die
Xenophobic tendencies
instilled in us at birth
are misabled racism
hostilities getting worse
accept the fact my distant cousin
we cannot live in peace
isolated environments
may just be the key
Human beings suspicious
soon fear grows to hate
we'll have each other by the throat
when forced to integrate
mothers watch their children die
at each other's hand
Cain and Able set the course
ethnocentric command
Race War
Hate War
6: Inner Conflict
Nothing can stop the pain
and nothing can stop the pain
suffering from anxiety
it seems like an eternity
Somebody somebody kill me
somebody put my out of my misery
Inner Conflict
Inner Conflict
The pain it only gets worse
and the pain it only get worse
give up 'cause there is no hope
life is hell when you can't cope
Large two inch maggots decorate my vomit
infecting eyes oozing pus
acknowledge the stench of human excrement
swamps of mucus prevalent
every hole in my body drips blood
every hole in my body drips blood
every hole in my body drips blood
Hate is fear
I rip at my face in the mirror
death approaching
expiration growing nearer
I'm rotting inside
I'm disgusted with myself
I'm in hell
7: Jesus Hitler
Jesus Hitler
Adolf Christ
Is this the second coming
Or the fourth Reich?
His mother a nun raped by a nazi
near the end of the second great war
gave birth to a son who could change the future
for better or worse he's not sure
I am what should never have been
the ultimate abomination
Have I returned to save the Jews
or to destroy them?
Hear thee my fellow nazolics
come join the Neotheofacists
keep the race pure practice eugenics
and swear to the holy swazafix
I have returned
Reich und Roll!
Hess to my left and Peter on my right
will it be war or peace
totalitarian on his throne of blood
commands both man and beast
a pair of souls trapped in the body of one
both prisoners of reincarnation
torn between good and evil
I have returned for salvae-elimination
8: Technophobia
You fear change and all that's new
stand in the way of progress
like primitive man afraid of fire
'till he explored it's many uses
The power of the atom at our disposal
yet it is called unsafe
nuclear energy so clean and pure
your ignorance is a disgrace
Do not resist
it is your destiny
have we not all become
the children of technology
Holding your fate in a magnetic grip
of all your irrational fears
the shadow of machinery cast upon the flesh of man
blood, sweat, and gears
the robots of dawn offsprings the industry
spot you in the cobalt blue light
one fell swoop and you've become a memory
away with your intrusive life
Into the reactor!
You worship a dead man hung with nails
only a fool would die for the sins of humanity
on your knees before electronics
lets replace this religious insanity
tear down the churches instead on the ground
build there the holy reactors
give us the children science and math
in place of bibles and pastors
You bleeding heart liberals
who oppose the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
must be compelled to retire
you serve only as obstacles and should be used
to fuel the nuclear pyre
9: Manic Depression
by J.Hendrix
10: U.S.A. for U.S.A.
Listen to all this all you douchebags
it's time that we laid down the law
we're tired of taking your shit
and we ain't 'gonna take it no more
be prepared to fight and die
so that we may be free
and if you don't like it here
than pack your shit and leave
our forefathers died in war
so that you could live better
we at least owe it to them
to keep the stars and stripes forever
Planting bombs in planes
blowing up our ships
kill our kids and woman
find these dickless slobs
hang them by the scrotum
lets end the terrorism
You think yourself a god
would follow to the death
a spineless yellow faggot
a bunch of stinking slobs
hiding behind masks
show yourself 'ya maggot
United we stand
divided we fall
and that's the way it's gonna be
don't ever forget the soldiers
who died for liberty
All the bullshit countries
who think they'll beat the giant
world peace upheaval
we'll nuke 'em to the stone age
send the message clear
ya don't fuck with the eagle
5 000 000 000
12: Sex and Violence
Money wrench in my hand
in my groin a swollen gland
tonight perform brain surgery
or some gynecology
clockwork orange fast becoming
rampant street gangs overrunning
after darkness raging war
what do they keep living for?
Sex and Violence
I love to hear you scream in vain
splattered blood and semen stains
rape and murder lesson learned
meaning of life? - Pain and sperm
prey upon the old and helpless
reconditioning is useless
ultra-violent offsprings of gore
what do they keep living for?
Sex and Violence
If you can't eat it or fuck it...
then kill it!
Sexual deviation
Religious desecration
Civil mutilation
Violent procreation
Bleed for me
