Don't Pick It Up
I saw a little kid As he walked around He picked a candy bar up Off the ground He chowed about a half Then his face turned blue Turned out that candy bar was doggy-doo Don't pick it up I say Unless you can throw it away Don't pick it up I say You're gonna be bummed that you went that way
You're out there makin' bacon No scrutiny You mess around too much And you got VD You know you never think And you're sore today You're gonna take it back to California Don't pick it up I say Unless you can throw it away Don't pick it up I say You're gonna be bummed that you went that way
My friend was kinda hurtin' For a girl to try He saw one that looked like Pat On Saturday Night Live It had a pair of thingies But a mustache too Not clearly male nor female So now what to do Don't pick it up I say Unless you can throw it away Don't pick it up I say

Change The World
I see the way the salesmen stare into the sun I stood and watched them as they fell off one by one And everyone's so blind They're not to help mankind Reach into your bag of tricks and pull another one You don't want to change the world Like you say You're in it for yourself No one else You're ready Saving yourself You're gonna change the world You're ready Saving yourself You're gonna change the world Now when the day is set they'll line up all the same And those that need the most will never get or gain The ones you call your friends Are failing you again Reach into your bag of tricks and make it go away You don't want to change the world Like you say You're in it for yourself No one else You're ready Saving yourself You're gonna change the world You're ready Saving yourself You're gonna change the world And since you ain't what you say Then just go away Cause some don't lie Some don't lie Go on now they won't tell

Something To Believe In
I believe that reality's gone Disillusion's real I believe that morality's gone And there's nothing to feel If you take the sacred things The things that we hold dear Empty promise is all you'll find So give me something Something to believe in I believe in a changing of the guard Put our feet on the ground See it happen in your own background Everything breaks down Do you accept what you are told Without even thinking Throw it all and make your own And give me something Something to believe in Where they lead You will follow Well I guess that's just the way it goes And if you look away You'll be doing what they say And if you look alive You'll be singled out and tried If you take home anything Let it be your will to think The more cynical you become

Self Esteem
I wrote her off for the tenth time today And practiced all the things I would say But she came over I lost my nerve I took her back and made her dessert Now I know I'm being used That's okay man cause I like the abuse I know she's playing with me That's okay cause I've got no self esteem We make plans to go out at night I wait till 2 then I turn out the light All this rejection's got me so low If she keeps it up I just might tell her so When she's saying that she wants only me Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends When she's saying that I'm like a disease Then I wonder how much more I can spend Well I guess I should stick up for myself But I really think it's better this way The more you suffer The more it shows you really care Right? Now I'll relate this a little bit That happens more than I'd like to admit Late at night she knocks on my door Drunk again and looking to score Now I know I should say no But that's kind of hard when she's ready to go I may be dumb But I'm not a dweeb

It'll Be A Long Time
All this time has whittled away Like so many days in one Back and forth the leaders sway Backing it up with guns Superpowers flex their wings Hold the world on puppet strings Egos will feed While citizens bleed That's always the way it goes When will the world listen to reason I've got a feeling it'll be a long time When will the truth come in to season I've got a feeling it'll be a long time All they want is what they can defend Before their time is up Make the same mistakes again Heard it all before Superpowers flex their wings Hold the world on puppet strings Egos will feed While citizens bleed That's always the way it goes Well if they tried Maybe they'd see It'd do a little good to let the world be free Handshake and a smile Gets you on through Then turn it all around with a suicide move But you know it's not fooling anyone but me

Not The One
I'm not the one who made the world what it is today I'm not the one who caused the problems started long ago But now I deal with all the consequences that troubles our times I carry on and never once have even questioned why
I'm innocent But the wieght of the world is on my shoulders I'm innocent But the battles started are far from over
We're not the ones who leave the homeless in the streets at night We're not the ones who've kept minorities and women down Still we grow and then the problems they become our own We carry on without even realizing why
We're innocent But the weight of the world is on our shoulders We're innocent But the battles left us are far from over
We're not the ones whose pollution blackened our skies And ruined the streams We're not the ones who made the nuclear bombs That threaten our lives We're not the ones who let the children starve in faraway lands We're not the ones who made the streets unsafe to walk at night
And even if we try and not become so overwhelmed And if we make some contribution to the plight we see Still our descendents will inherit our mistakes of today

Jennifer Lost The War
Jennifer lost the war today You'll find her burned and raped Through it all She must have wondered What have I done But nobody really cares today The world's a busy place Guess she must have really sinned
I guess we're all just soldiers She was only six years old Left to die by strangers Her family waits And if we're all just soldiers Is it so wrong to be afraid
Phoebe lost the war today There must be some mistake Say it happens all the time And it's said and done And Little Miss 1565 Your soul remains unclaimed Guess you must have really sinned
Morality won't help her When she lies silent in a morgue And all our sorrows just don't count at all But will the morning headlines Even say that it's a shame What are we headin' for
Seen it all before Silent on the ground As he's walking away And I wonder how many more Everybody takes it Like it's nothing at all

Elders
When we younger There always seemed like Some perfect mold That we're supposed to be But now we're growing up and I see it's just not that way Now I feel like someones lied to me
Cause I've been true Made good for you And now I feel used I'm asking you How does it feel How does it feel How does it feel To be like you
Tell me now elders What were your reasons for Making it seem Like you were so much more If you want to feel good Because of our accomplishments Why the fuck Don't you just do it yourself
Cause I've tried Man I've tried While you all lied So now just tell me How does it feel How does it feel How does it feel To be like you
Look at all the families now Who don't talk and don't trust Because of the way That things have been done When will you finally learn To leave out the bullshit

Demons
Clouds pass over the moon Like an eye that shows impending doom Tension in this misty air Souls pass into the room Drawn in by a lost memory You will join them in the moonlight
You are my offering Your soul transcends The centuries of pain Your misery in life Is your ecstasy in death
Time passes like the wind As we race to beat days dusky grin Mornings just a moment away Your body glistens in candlelight As we all look on in fiendish delight The ritual is just beginning
Come fulfill the prophecy With our demons of debauchery As virgins and spectres sing This madness will never cease
In the dead of night You will follow In the footsteps of many others Who have come before I will show you the altar Your Aztec eyes, Egyptian hair Your beauty bestoved upon my lair I've loved you before, in other lives But you've never meant as much to me Never meant as much to me as now
In this night of sacrifice where blood is spilt That will never spill again But in your linen robes We want you now We want you now You could never ask for more than that
You are my offering Your soul transcends The centuries of pain Your misery in life Is your ecstasy in Come fulfill the prophecy With our demons of debauchery

A Thousand Days
Ask me no questions and I'll tell you I'll tell you no lies When all is said and done Does it really matter who's wrong or right Don't ask me for a reason, I can't explain Why we hurt one another again and again As I lie bleeding here I still I still reach for you
A thousand days Have passed away A thousand days Were captured in her eyes
Your eyes are open now but you know It's still hard to see inside When action and intention Are two seperate things Now I somehow wish I could explain Why we hurt each other again and again Like someone on his dying breath I still reach for you
A thousand days Have passed away A thousand days Were captured in her eyes
Forever we've been Trapped by our hearts Trapped by our minds I'd like to leave I'd like to win at love
But I just can't let it go And I just can't watch it slipping away And I just can't let it go And I just can't stand another minute
Maybe now someday our shattered live Will mend themselves again But now a million miles away I still wish I could And though I somehow know, I can't explain Why we hurt one another again and again Like someone on his dying breath

Blackball
In this world of hate and shallowness Where enemies become your consolation And those of us who win the game give up our minds I don't call that winning Say this doesn't apply to you But ask yourself first What have I done today to win the game And just what have I sacrificed
Win the battle lose the war I know I've played this game before When people were still real I don't want this anymore It's time for me to close the door There's nothing left to feel
Reflect on all our yesterdays My own words choke me Why were they spoken Regret for the things I've said and done Just can't compare with Regret for those that I have never tried So blame this world or blame yourself It's really all the same When you are standing on the precipice From which you just cannot return
Win the battle or lose the war I know I've played this game before When people were still real I don't want this anymore It's time for me to close the door There's nothing left to feel
In the style of forgotten men I look to my horizon I see nothing While thoughts of guns and desecration Sweep through my mind But only coffins and bones remain As I look to you The emptiness behind your eyes Seals my decision Can't carry on in this world of jugglers Where all this thoughtlessness and bludgeonings Your key to success What kind of tradition to carry on
Blackball The new disease Blackball The new disease Blackball Your evil ways Have found their way inside me
Blackball The new disease Blackball The new disease Blackball For a better life

I'll Be Waiting
Once I had a friend that I could count on So I thought Well so it seemed But times of need are not enough To prove your friendship to me now Once I saw a face that I believed in But a mask was all there was So who wears the masks and who wears the faces Well I guess I'll never know
But as I stand here alone in a room full of people With nothing to say Beer on their minds, and smoke in the air Call them feiends but they just don't care
Friend for life Such shallow words for broken minds Show me a friend for life Cause I'll be waiting for that day to arrive When I'll feel alive I'll be waiting for that day
Once I found a love I had to know Now we might know each other just too well Cause when we're together we just can't get enough Or is it we just can't get what we want Once I saw a dream, I had to chase it Dreams quickly turn to reality Who's at fault in this game of yours and mine Well I guess I'll never know
But as I sit here alone Think of the girl who came softly inside me The look in her eyes, the smell of her hair Call her my own but is she really there?
Love for life Such noble words for noble minds Show me a love for life Cause I'll be waiting for that day to arrive When I'll feel alive I'll be waiting for that day
Once I had a friend that I could count Times of need are not enough Once I found a love I had to know Now we might know each other just too well Once I saw a dream I had to chase Dreams quickly turn to reality Now let me close my eyes

Kill The President
In a world without leaders Who'd start all the wars? The world that you're saving Will always be yours
Kill the President Listen to the voice of reason Unify with that single line Stop the man with the power Of the government A leader's not the center Of democracy
In a world without leaders Who'd make people starve? The world that we're saving Will always be ours
Everyone says Well maybe I'll make a difference Thinking they've got plenty of time But you're squeezed A little tighter everyday Punished before you can commit a crime
In a world without leaders Who'd start all the wars? The world that you're saving Will always be yours
Kill the President Listen to the voice of reason Unify with that single line Stop the man with the power Of the goverment A leader's not the center Of democracy
America All of your enemies Come from within But you lash out so It is seen Like some frightened child In an angry world Or the fall of Rome Your demise comes From your own hands
In a world without leaders Who'd start all the wars? The world that you're saving Will always be yours
In a world without leaders We might have a chance But we'll never see it
