EDUCATION IS A SYSTEM OF IMPOSED IGNORANCE
First they have you walk in line real straight I say thats strange I walk through the halls like the lowest dog I suffer but the teacher don't care I walk into class after bells ring Oh....this training. Education is a system of ignorance Competitions and wages of war They train you with sports Laugh the weak ones out of town I sat in the second row They punish you to learn and climb They torture nature out of your mind My spirit firmly clamped in a stranglehold I'm so young, life should be fun But with science and math they burn your attentions Let me out of here where I belong School steals the joy from the kid They program you till your dying day Oh no let me go Oh no let me go Oh no let me go Oh no let me go Let me go Let me go Let me go Let me go
HEY YOU
Hey you your talking down to me Your through , its time for me to be A man sleeping in the rain Don't build no castles made of sand I know that its tough but it just will have to be I've waited and made all my plans You and others like yourself Try and put me on a shelf Well I couldn't stand around And see a whole world tumble down I know that your blind but now is the time to see I've waited and made all my plans Hey you your talking down to me Cause I'm someone you can't be No more sleeping in the rain I don't build castles made of sand I know that its tough but it just will have to be I've waited and made all my plans I don't like it (I caught lightning) I don't like it ( I caught lightning) I don't like it ( I caught lightning) I don't like it ( I caught lightning)

PRIMITIVE
I wanna blow holes in the the sky and rip it up in pieces. I wanna smash glass for a year and play with electricity. I wanna see if prostitutes get lockjaw, I wanna know.................... If Mondays too fast for me, Mondays just passin' me, Mondays just facts for me, Monday give it back to me. I wanna drive a car through a wall and hold up a bank Frank. I wanna be the one thats sneaking out on the cops Joe. I wanna see if Hostess twinkies give me lockjaw, I wanna know.................. If Mondays too fast for me, Mondays just passin' me, Moneys just facts for me, Monday give it back to me. Hey! -solo- I wanna drive a car through a wall and hold up a bank Frank. I wanna be the one thats sneaking out on the cops Joe. I wanna see if Hostess twinkies give me lockjaw, I wanna know.................. If Mondays too fast for me, Mondays just passin' me, Mondays just facts for me, Monday give it back to me
*****************************************************************************
*note in the song 'Primitive the words 'prostitutes' and Hostess Twinkies ' were interchangeable from night to night according to the moment and mood. You can use whichever or both as you like!Also because Testors was usually in a state of chaos..as well as the lyrics..I often substituted the word 'Monday' with Money'..you can use both or either -Sonny
BAD ATTITUDE
I try to keep a good attitude, Each and every day, But you’re talking business, When I want to play, You’re always in my way ,bad bad attitude, You’re always in my way, Sometimes I look at you, I wonder if you’re alive, Are you cybernetic? Or are you a jive ? You’re always in my way ,bad bad attitude, You’re always in my way ,bad bad attitude, You’re giving me a bad attitude, Every time I think of you baby, It’s just not fair when you drool on me, Then you bite my shoulder, Like you’re out to feed, You’re always in my way,bad bad attitude, You’re always in my way,bad bad attitude, You’re always in my way,bad bad attitude, You’re always in my way,
DO WHAT I WANT
Great fireballs Judas genocide, Dead tulip sun, Without a care baby for myself, Without anyone, All alone- without a care baby for myself, All alone- yeah the blood flows from my eyes, Now I do what I want, Had a love don’t feel so good, Love dirty song, Love war till the water came, Love sin is gone, All alone- yeah gone baby to dear John, All alone- yeah gone stop bubble gum, Do what I want, now I do what I want, Do what I want, I do what I want, San Quentin but I got the shakes, Got put in chains, Here I thought getting real amazed, I’ve gone insane, Cause all alone and it never really stopped, Now I do what I want, I do what I want I do what I want, now I do what I want
ROKY
Sit here alone in my room, I want to talk to you Is anybody in tune?Can't live without you. Stop the fires on, I want to comfort you. Does anybody see,The beast inside of me. This is a lonely city, To be all alone I don't like these people, I don't like their faces. Damnation, I want to walk with you. A sinner is living here,I thought I told you, Yeah I'm mighty high,I'm in a drug world And maybe bidding my time, My Meditation. This is a lonely city, I'm all alone. I don't like these people, I don't like their faces. And I know,it ain't real And I'm so dissatisfied And I know I can't change So cold , so paralized And I know that you only see the bad side of me And I know that your so fake and your gonna follow me This is a lonely city, I'm alone. But it takes some pity,And drugs All alone in this room,I wanna have you. All alone in this world,I wanna touch you, All alone in my chain,I wanna feel you, All alone in a movie screen,I wanna tell you. Such a lonely town, When your not around Such a lonely world, Without you. And I know it ain't real And I still ain't satisfyied. And I know that I will break, And that I'll be tranqualized. And I know that the key, It Is not inside of me, And in a way its a fact That You will follow me. -solo- All alone in the room,I wanna feel you Sex channel on the tube,I wanna touch you All alone in my heart,I always miss you concentration fades from the start, I wanna sleep with you Its a lonely world, Without you I have a lonely heart, Broke from the start. And I know, And I know All the days without a sound Without you,without me And without no energy. With out fortress for where to hide And no peace way down inside. When it comes to me, You might say that I'm low,so very far Another day here we go ,in my soul and in my heart. And I'm broken by it all, And I'm falling away, Falling away, Falling away, Falling away, Falling away..
WOE CRIED THE MUSE
Sweet animal you must understand That I’m hot on the heels of the promised land I bust through rat wall I feel the heat Father holy ghost and son I’m gonna run ‘til I find the light run ‘til I find the light Yeah let me tell you about this world little child The first step is on the corner The second step is underwater The third step is on your knees And the fourth step baby you’re screaming “please” Gonna run ‘til I find the light Oh yes I will Gonna run ‘til I find the light Yours tears are falling down Trying to make sense of this two bit town Every time you stand they cut you down It makes me crazy when we don’t count And now hate’s on the rise in the human dump But you got eyes of a wonderful child We’re trapped in a world like a hurricane And the chains are dragging us down I’m gonna run ‘til I find the light, oh yes I will Gonna run ‘til I find the light Prison warden loosen my chains They’re binding me Lots of beauty on the other side that waits for me Gonna run ‘til I find the light, oh yes I will Gonna run ‘til I find the light I do intend to win the endless fight And with grace find the meaning of love I bust through the rat wall I feel the heat Father holy ghost and son I’m gonna run ‘til I find the light, oh yes I will I’m gonna run ‘til I find the light, oh yes I will Gonna run ‘til I find it Run ‘til I find it Run ‘til I find the light

Dead man walk this earth Drag up on a beach Done there’s nothing left Everything so complete It’s over get out my blood It’s over get out of my blood Well you can give me back my soul Give me back my keys I’m standing up, I’m not on my knees It’s over get out of my blood It’s over get that understood, oh yeah Didn’t understand it When they told you in church You didn’t really hear it When they said in school What was that crap you said The second time What was it here I’ll give you a little help Taste this time It’s over get out of my blood It’s over get out of my blood Dead man walk this earth Drag up on a beach Done there’s nothing left Over it’s so complete Over it’s so complete
CHOPPING BLOCK
Does anybody know about this "Human" junk? Cause everyday I am on a chopping block. First your born and then your dead. All the time thinking your the one. Only congestion in your head. The C.A.D. didn't murder God. But they will lay you out, Right upon the block. At the time your having fun, Then here comes Juniper Joe. At the time you begin to run, But your much too slow...Diamond Man ------SOLO------- To the chopping block,Punch in the jaw. No getting away,Got you on the run. It's all windows too. But none will open the way. Talk about concept of time, It's out. Just a chopping job,Hunk of Burning Love, Gonna slice your brain,with a dirty saw. All the time they beat you down, No rest from that chopping sound. No escape though you wish you could, But they're all around. Next time when the moon is full, You try to know what is bad or good, But it don't matter anyway, On "Chopping Day" They chop away. Yeah.

BLACK BOOK
Too much pain but it made me strong Too much rain now my sun screams on Got me a little black book I keep in my brain All the people and institutions I’ll never be the same Pushed me down and now I’m standing tall Made me cry and now I have it all Gonna do some living now, thank you That’s all right Feeling good no more messed up No more lonely nights I got the rain, you got Babylon I got the pain, you got Babylon that’s right Used to be so depressed With no luck at all Then they got me down so low I had nowhere to fall Leave me alone you just can’t get me I’m through with the lies And I’m finally free I will always remember How it used to be You can live your life Come on let me be
CRAZY GAME
First you want to live forever Then you want to die Breathe the air of endless spring Till smoke gets in your eye, Oh love is a crazy game Yeah love is a crazy game I’ll be true forever Or until it’s done The promise broken Sunday Don’t affect me none, Your love is a crazy game Yeah love is a crazy game Here’s a song for all the broken dreams in paradise Here’s a song for all the hearts in pawn Here’s a song I sing as I look deep into your eyes A song sung in vain, What a weak word “forever” can be What a lonely word “never” can be And words just get soggy in the rain The risk is high So be careful child Don’t give your soul To any simple smile Yeah love is a crazy game Yeah love is a crazy game Keep your love safe Guard your heart Be careful what you do Plant your dreams in fields and streams Let them grow Keep real warm avoid the storm Or you will find out soon You’ll find out early… What a weak word “forever” can be What a lonely word “never” can be And words just get soggy in the rain Love is a crazy game Yeah love is a crazy game Yeah love is a crazy game Yeah love is a crazy game
ALWAYS A CATCH

There's always a rub, I'll never trust you. Now get your blood out my face, I got my job,out of grace. Now it's for sure and on time, Just play your part ,everythings fine. There's always a catch when it comes to you. There's always a rub,Rubs right through. Johnny DeFoe a circle for a telephone. Johnny DeFoe a circle for a miracle. I shot in fear,Why did you? Let's get the facts,your ordered to tell. Let's make some tracks,right out of here. You'll have your fill,you racketeer. There's always a catch when it comes to you. There's always a rub,Your Ma-Ma trusts you. Johnny DeFoe ,desperate for a miracle. Johnny DeFoe,just waitin for a miracle. A-Huh Johnny DeFoe comes in and lay the money down, Johnny DeFoe desperate for a miracle. ------------SOLO-------- There's always a catch when it comes to you. There's always a rub,Only Ma-Ma trusts you. Johnny DeFoe is searching for a miracle, Johnny DeFoe is searching for impossible, Johnny DeFoe doesn't know where to go Johnny DeFoe all alone.

TIME IS MINE
Shoot me baby once, Shoot me once again, And warm your trigger for another shot, Yes I`ve got this bleeding virgin heart that’s ripe for the cut, Come on and finish here what you start. I don`t wanna see the sun go down, But its hard to breathe in tinsel town, If you know the way the story goes then I guess you know if its real. Standing in one place for too many years , I`ve got some chains and rythym binding me, I think I`ll flip myslef back , Push myself honey, Then I`ll land up-standing on my feet. I don`t wanna see the sun go down, But its hard to breathe in tinsel town, If you know the way the story goes then I guess you know if its real. It`s a fool who lets them lead him on, Don`t let them put your life on hold. I don`t wanna see the sun go down, But its hard to breathe in tinsel town, If you know the way the story goes then I guess you know if its real. -solo- Shoot me baby once, Shoot me once again, And warm your trigger for another shot, Yes I`ve got this bleeding virgin heart that’s ripe for the cut, Come on and finish woman what you start.

Then I guess youk now, If its real. Then I guess you know, If its real. Then I guess you know,

CINEMATIC SUICIDE
I’m in some kind of panic, I think I’m going insane, I got fifty thousand pictures in my brain, I can’t decide anything it’s true, I don’t know what I’m gonna do, I got the fire in the spirit, Feeling in my heart, But I’m stuck in a maze, Where’s the end, where’s the start? Sleep in the day, walking in the night, Lord I got the feeling something ain’t right, I see killing in the movies, killing on my television set, With all their killing, that’s all they get, Feeling in the spirit, Feeling in my heart, But I’m stuck in a maze, Where’s the end, where’s the start? I still think about you and care about you, I don’t know where the time is gone, I still think about you and care about you, I don’t know what went wrong, We are trained for killing all our lives, “Hey Joe” he got angry at his wife, There’s a planet full of killers after you, They’ll watch the instant replay when they’re through, I got the fire in the spirit, Pain in my heart, But I’m stuck in a maze, Where’s the end, where’s the start? I still care about you and think about you, I don’t know where the time is gone, I still care about you and think about you, I don’t know where the time is gone, I still care about you and think about you, I don’t know where the time has gone, I still care about you and think about you, I don’t know what went wrong,
SACRED INNOCENCE
Sacred innocence Like the forest in the shade I’m walking with the sun and son All the dark is gonna fade Anycase and anytime Jam the music in the face of time I’m born into this world Born to do this song Born to do what I want to do Before my dying’s done Anycase and anytime Gonna get it right every time Sacred innocence We’re gonna take a trip What is more I saw you On a chrome yellow ship Anycase and anytime Dance to this song out of time
THE DARK AND THE LIGHT
Feel the heat of the rising sun light burn my eyes Yeah, I’m somewhere inbetween the dark and the light Living in the shadow of love Edge of the night I’ll be there when the sun comes down The dark and the light Useless appointments I cancel them all Gotta get back on the right track Wabash cannonball Secret horizon, sea waterfall Insane asylum, give me back my soul ‘Cause I’m tired of trying, tired of crying, Gotta get inside a taxi cab, Drive it all night long Jean Genie why’d you lie? Why’d you sing that song? Telephone the warning call Cuts to the heart Just another sleepless night fades from light to dark Changes of mind, trust of love- I don’t know The changes will always come to this- find you, find you, find you Got a hold of the keys to the sun Unlock the door, then I see angels cry Now I want some more Pawn your soul in a circus town but you don’t come back Just remember to save your love in the dark and the light Useless appointments I cancel them all Gotta get back on the right track Wabash cannonball Secret horizon, sea waterfall Insane asylum, give me back my soul ‘Cause I’m tired of trying, tired of crying, Feel the heat of the rising sun, light burns my eyes Yeah, I’m somewhere in between the dark and the light Living in the shadow of love, edge of the night I’ll be there when the sun comes down, The dark and the light I’ve gone in too far- dark and the light I’ve gone in too far- dark and the light I’ve gone in too far- dark and the light I’ve gone in too far- dark and the light
MORNING SONG FOR YOU
Just a chord or two in a morning song for you Let’s sit by this tree in the dawning of this day Love will conquer all I hear the angels call Let’s just fall in the sea in a water built for two Let’s be part of the change and the happy parts for you Like children lost in time It’s nice to have it all On our own, on our own, on our own Just a taste of the spring in a morning song for you Another wonderful day I am glad to share with you Our souls will never fall I hear the angels call It seems we’ve found our choice in chapter 42 And when the seasons change there’s another song for you Don’t want to bring you down at all Just want to share some time On our own, on our own, on our own I think I’ve found the truth in a morning song for you I found the sun and the stars in a morning song for you With faith we can be sure We really have it all On our own, on our own, on our own, on our own
CITY STREETS
Wow! Wake up in the morning - everythings alright. Walk out in the city- what an ugly sight. People seem so far away- why don't they just fall into a hole. Fall into a hole - yeah! Ain't no use in being nice- look around all you get is cold, All you get is cold - Yeah! Looking for a sunny day, I wanna smoke my cares away, Wanna find some meaningfull, But all I get is city streets- Hey! City streets - yeah! Get up leave the house- got to go downtown. People passin' by and all they do is frown. Everyone is on their own- Everyone is ready for the war, Ready for a war- come on!? Nothing to give, nothing to say, Nothing gives nothing. Nothing for today- Hey , Hey , Hey! All I need is a little sun- a smile from someone. Anything but this robot place Anything but that ugly face City Streets! Hey! -solo- Don't start a fight-who is right? Who is first? -Its my turn at the light...its my turn. Don't look at me- Cause I don't care Goddamn city each and every day, Hey! City Streets, City Streets City Streeeeets! City Streets- City Streets- City Streets -City Streets -City Streets- City Streets- City Streets -City Streets City Streets !!!
AIN’T GOT THE TIME
Crime is floating in my morning coffee And my fingers hurt from cops My dream has gone through a mirrored cloud Now I search from door to door And I can’t afford the time There’s some things that I must do Cause I ain’t got the time Now 300 times I rolled for you Like an orangutan in front of the zoo Now I’m charging a lot of money too I’ll have a sixpack in the shade I’m gonna do what I’m told I’m not gonna do it at all Cause I ain’t got the time Cause I ain’t got the time Join the ship that takes off soon That never winds up in a storm I know what I gotta do, I did it before Just avoid that hangman’s rope To see life so clear The fun-taxi is there Cause I ain’t got the time Cause I ain’t got the time
HARD TO DISAPPOINT
Wait a minute… In a jail cell, like a see-saw I see the sizzling chain has cut me some In the sand I drowned my dreams Then I got jacked up on some run Tied in chains in a dungeon, dying slow On and on and on Lord The good times are gone I am in solitary Oh God please tear it down On and on and on Lord The good times are gone I can’t walk by the seaside Rattling chains my only There’ll be a jailbreak So Satan said But still these chains keep rattling on Now I stare into the darkness I see the snakes and flames In a jail cell, tied in chains, dying slow On and on and on Lord The good times are gone Take my place in Heaven But for now just let me go In a jail cell, like a see-saw I see the sizzling chain has cut me some In the sand I drowned my dreams Then I got jacked up on some run Dying slow, in a dungeon, tied in chains
DYING EARTH
By the shore, deprivation, By the sea, meditation, What blinded you, what the priest saw, The deciding line, what the mother saw, Sanitation, sanitation for us all, Sanitation’s just great, sanitation for the day, Then her body shook, like a shaman, And the busted through, penetration, She forgot to change, into the party suit, But she always won, in the talent show, Sanitation, gonna jump on to this world, Gonna sterilize the sun, So it’s safe for everyone, Chemical love in the morning, Stars shinning down on empty gardens, Oh they tried so keep the cage locked, They played the psalms to the Minotaur, But the bed sheets became escape ropes, Lights come on and there’s a power surge, Sanitate fish on the run, No bluff, this is a gun, The charge you will see, In the court appointed way, Chemical love in the morning, The tree in the garden is falling, Can’t see the moon in the corner, The Geiger counter moves the water,
I WANT YOU TO QUIT
I don’t mind dancing with you But it’s high time you see, listen good You can’t stop a car You can’t stop a train You can’t stop a jet And you can’t stop me Why don’t you see, why act dumb? I don’t buy jive, from no chump You can’t stop a car You can’t stop a train You can’t stop a jet And you can’t stop me Can’t you see I’ve got cards Now my draw show what’s true You can’t stop a car You can’t stop a train You can’t stop a jet And you can’t stop me
WRITINGS
These are some samples of my writings. Some have been published and some not. Later I will add more...
MYTHOPOETIC WAR
by Sonny Vincent
I can see the bright gems slowly turning on the surface of the sun. And over there smoke billows from a pile of books that were censored. Sweat is pouring from my brow, I am trapped. The General and his armies are chasing me. The Metallic Hound is now nipping at my heels. If I could only find the oasis. Just a moment to rest. I am losing touch, I become dizzy and weak. I am trapped and I need a sign from God. Is my journey useless and without purpose? The firing squad is taking aim, Only a miracle can save me now. I must be strong, Rip off this blindfold and tie their weapons into knots. But I can only sit here. Here at this lonely Train Station And stare at these cigarette butts on the floor. Like I said I must be strong.
LINOLEUM
by Sonny Vincent
Now it is time to realize that you live in a world dominated by cheap facsimiles. A dimension where linoleum is the nearest thing you will ever have to a friend. Why urinal do you gleam beyond the Milkyway? You must realize by now that human nature is very strange indeed. Dead bodies piled high will stink, but you can always put cologne on the rotting carcasses. Drive,Baby,Drive,Baby,Drive,Baby,Drive Drive this motherfucker into a street light. A puzzle piece that does not fit. Did you drop your soul? Or is that just spit from someones trachea on the sidewalk there? Incredible X-Ray vision, Get drunk, Heroin is stronger than drink, Shooting enough to blot out the sun. A syringe full of hope, Heroin like a fresh spring day, Full of optimism , Full of life and sparkling forevers. I give up. I give my soul to Linoleum.
THIS SEA IS A MACHINE
by Sonny Vincent
Fish electrocuted on an electrified fence, except the green striped ones. For years now they have tried to melt the ice of their newest sexual appetite. This new age deserves to be answered. Where are the God Drivin Jellyfish? The conveyor belt to death. And how much time wasted on meaningless activities? White hot feelings of paranoia, A question mark of existence. Public opinion is more than reliable when hands are calloused and knotted. This Sea Is A Machine. I must get back what they took from me. And stand on the high peak. Give it back! Sly thief! Those black eyes are deep. Your own falseness is deep. But you really have no eyes at all! Egyptian murderer, I will kill you, Someday soon.
LIMBO DOWN WITH ME
by Sonny Vincent
Your hair is like fiber optic fishing line Your eyes are like Charles Manson Oh! but you know the twist Oh! but you know the atomic chicken Everytime Everytime Your voice is like money Your touch like the Hare Krishna Oh! but you can limbo Oh! do the pony Everyworld Everyworld As you can see I'm ready for anything As you can see I'm sort of in love As you can see I'm drunk on your door step As you can see I can't see cause I'm drunk Watch me as I shatter the glass Paranoid likeness of your fear Come close I must whisper here. You're giving me more than milk. You can serve my thirst. Oh! But you know how to limbo Oh! But you know how to limbo
IN THE PLACE FOR (OF)
by Sonny Vincent
Sixteen years in a cardboard box and the sun will hurt your eyes. Not to mention the grey stuff all over your feet. Let's go now to Egypt where there are no subways but if there were they would not screech. I am hungry, I am thirsty, I need rest, back and forth. You just like to see it written. Things like a bleeding telephone book. Quick, check your pocket is your money still there? Are you o.k.? A bowl full of eyes would not be like grapes. But I bet they would be drooling. Pokerface, which should tell a story unless you're an exec for Xerox and in that case call the C.I.A. or the nearest librarian. But wait, let's go no further with this exercise in additives. We should think of time. The sledge hammer of the clock beating on the temples. The serated edge of the calendar sawing through an elephant's skull bone. But this I swear to you, my friend. It's a set up. It is a stage. There are actors who are not paid. Don't let the vampires suck your life 'cause they'll lick you like a knife. Beware of time 'cause you're in the place for (of)
DOG ON THE SUBWAY WITH GOLD SHOOTING SPARKS
by Sonny Vincent
So many beautiful chances To climb to the heavens Only to be distracted By the arabic melody That creates a warm sea Did I see you in a glance? No you are destined to be A robot in a stage production Knowing not the pain you have been spared For through pain the useless Meaning can come clear To the surface like an incredibly Bad joke. So many activities to be appalled by Walking on the rim of the beach And knowing your place is there I sit sweating and nervous in my cabin Knowing that my vision is one of chance Convinced that on channel 2 there Is a more beautiful television show Beyond the edge of the beach Beyond the edge of the beach
