All I see 06:03
We weren't wed, there's no confetti / Left me weak like damp spaghetti / You outwait and you outlive / Hope's like water through the sieve / And though I sang with such bravado / I'm as hard as avocado / I won't burn I'll fade out slowly / Subjugated guacamole / All I see / All I want / All I need / All I have / All I taste / All I touch / Is what you / Let me have from you / Let the naive play the fool/ I'm fed up of acting cool / Let them sing of fights and fucking / I'm reduced to words on cooking / All I see / All I want / All I need / All I have / All I taste / All I touch / Is what you / Let me have from you / You struck me like lightning / Saving me from tyrant's ring / And as our whole world grew colder / Our affair grew even bolder / Said you'd watch for wolves in wool / Said you'd keep my stomach full / Now I see right through your caring / I see what the shepherd's wearing / All I see / All I want / All I need / All I have / All I taste / All I touch / Is what you / Let me have from you / Once you claimed to protect me / Now it's clear you do detest me / But before I leave I pause / All I ever had is yours / All I see / All I want / All I need / All I have / All I taste / All I touch / Is what you / Let me have from you /And I will / And I will / And I will / Take it back /And I will / And I will / And I will / Take it back / All I see / All I want / All I need / All I have / All I taste / All I touch / Is what I / Will take back from you

Wanna be a stock price manipulator / Buy high, sell low, fiddle with the data / Wanna be a credit card operator / Preying on those who have to pay later / Wanna be a headline news generator / Don't blame me, blame a foreign waiter / I wanna see, on the Six O' Clock news / My guy win and the other guy lose / I wanna have, crocodile shoes / Selling bombs with a very short fuse / I wanna claim, freedom to choose / Means selling off our health and selling off our schools / 'Cause I have faith in the freedom of the market / Providing me with the red carpet / Keeping my Cuban cigar lit / Allowing me to choose my targets / wanna be the guy who's selling something / Worth far less than anybody else thinks / Get in get out run before the ship sinks / Leave it once I've pushed it up to the brink / Handshake full of cash and little knowing wink / I'll be gone before anybody else blinks / Make mine cold with an umberella / Get the fine stuff out of the cellar / Rags to riches, I'm a cinderella / If you see my godmother do not tell her / I never had rags, I'm not that sorta fella / Lies are needed for a best seller / 'Cause I have faith in the freedom of the market / Providing me with the red carpet / Keeping my Cuban cigar lit / Allowing me to choose my targets / All you have, you can thank me for / Coffee, phones, everything in any store / Cheaper now I exploit the world's poor / Morality's less hassle when it's offshore / Not my fault if I start a world war / Supply demand, it's a universal law /If it can be sold I'll find a buyer / If it can be burnt I'll start a fire / As the ocean levels rise I'll rise higher / You know me, I'm a frequent flier / If we're sitting on a bomb cut any wire Don't bother me, go preach to the choir / 'Cause I have faith in thefreedom of the market / Providing me with the red carpet / Keeping my Cuban cigar lit / Allowing me to choose my targets.

Chill, MAN! 01:26
I just need to chill, man / Life ain't so bad / I need to chill, man / Why am I mad? / But when my heart begins to quicken / And my pulse it starts to race / And I bump into the man with the punchable face / I just need to chill, man, / Calm myself down / I need to chill, man / Get rid of that frown / But it's so very hard / When I'm beaten and worn / Every fibre's broken, every nerve is torn / I just need to chill, man / Don't you know what I mean?! / I need to chill, man / Don’t you know what I’ve seen?! / And you say it doesn't matter, / Just take a deep breath, / And I say that won't happen / 'til the one before death / I just need to chill, man / I'm breaking and bruised / I need to chill, man / Oh God I’m confused / Everything is screaming / Right deep down in my brain / No part of me hurts / And yet I’m in pain / And you’re telling me to chill, man / don’t you know how that feels? / You’re telling me to chill, man / You call that a deal?! / What's in it for me / To breathe and relax?! / You know I won’t be happy / ‘Til I'm clutching an axe / And you’re begging me to chill, man / As I'm hacking away / I won't need to chill, man / When you make my day!

Bang! 03:40
Bang you hit a penny / Bang you hit a pound / Bang bang bang and the bodies hit the ground / You can hit a penny, on the roof of an orphanage / You can hit a penny, with a bomb that will not miss / But everything can change in the blink of an eye when you hear that / Bang you lost an arm / Bang you lost a leg / Bang bang bang now you're only fit to beg / How's that freedom looking, viewed through a glass eye? / How's that freedom looking, when your friend's about to die? / But everything can change in the blink of an eye when you hear that / Bang you say it's war / Bang you say we'll win / Bang bang bang, don't you know that pride's a sin? / Why are we still fighting, now it's knocked off the front page? / Why are we still be fighting, now our children are of age? / But everything can change in the blink of an eye when you hear that / Bang you raise a flag Bang you raise a fist / Bang bang bang and a parent will be missed / That's another child, being raised on blood and hate / That's another child, fodder for the caliphate / But everything can change in the blink of an eye when you hear that / Bang she had a car / Bang she had a vote / Bang bang bang now she's fleeing in a boat / She's not liking progress, when it keeps her in a cage / She's not liking progress, when it's back to the bronze age / But everything can change in the blink of an eye when you hear that / Bang he had a lover / Bang he had his dreams / Bang bang bang, now her blood is on his jeans / But I guess you're happy, with a golden parachute / But I guess you're happy in a dry-cleaned fucking suit / But everything can change in the blink of an eye when you hear that / Bang you're in a court / Bang you're in a cell / Bang Bang bang for your hand in making hell / You said you would bring justice, to places that had none / You said you would bring justice, it won't happen 'till you're gone / But everything can change in the blink of an eye when you hear that / Bang

Graveyard of empires / Such a great game / I call, you’re stone / One day you’ll look and find I’m gone/ I could have tasted death for a taste of your tongue / Watching you eat ice cream when we were young / Embrace me in a suicide vest / But don’t say I won’t give you a kiss. / Graveyard of empires / Such a great game / Graveyard of empires / Such a great game / Daughter, in America the river isn’t wet / Young girls learn to fill their jugs on the internet / The old goat seized a kiss from my pout / Like tearing a piece of fat from a starving dog’s snout / I dream I am the president / When I awake, I am the beggar of the world / Graveyard of empires Such a great game
7.
I think I've been here forever now / I've lost track of time, anyhow / I hear songs of love / I hear songs of lust / But there ain't much here / To get a Puritan fussed /I'm bored I’m bored so bored it hurts / We're not looking to the heavens / We're not digging through the dirt / We're just here, just here, uneventfully so / We're not standing firm, we got nowhere to go / It's worse than the muzak in the lifts at Alcatraz / I'm stuck listening to Guantanamo Jazz / I know they say art is subjective / But it seems so pointless, without an objective / Other than money / And other than fame / Just following wallets / To more of the same / Your focus, your focus, is a focus group / A verse, a chorus / Build then loop / You write with your brain, your heart and your smile / I write with my liver, my lips they spit bile / It's worse than the muzak in the lifts at Alcatraz, / I'm stuck listening to Guantanamo Jazz / Stop being comfortable, fuck the rhythm up / Or forget the lyrics, something something the rhyme scheme / Or at least sing about something that bears repeating / Like how the poor need feeding and the rich need eating / A song only needs to be sung again / If when it was sung it was ignored back then / This music, it’s torture, an insult to us all / Who needs Heaven? The fun's in the fall! / Forget the muzak in the lifts at Alcatraz / And keep your music, your Guantanamo Jazz!

Saskatchewan 06:14
This train don't stop at Saskatchewan / This train don't stop at Saskatchewan / Kents Bank and Arnside / Silverdale as well / And if you stay on long enough / It'll take you straight to Hell / This train don't stop at Saskatchewan / So it’s best you ring that bell / This line's had many passengers / And with their souls they pay / But the damned buy only singles / This line goes one way / I've seen your type round here before / There's fire in your blood / But the currents here run rougher than / The Souris river flood / And they'll wash you right away / You'll be buried out at sea / If a father, wife or child calls / They'll get no help from me / CHORUS / You think you're off to Regina / To see the Meewasin / But the only thing right down this line's / Iniquity and sin / You admire Henry Kelsey / On his way to Hudson Bay / So I guess you're after trouble if / You're headed down this way / But if it's treasure that you're after / Fast cars and broken hearts / The only thing you'll recognise / Are the old Anderson carts / CHORUS / Give up on your dreaming / Forget all your hope / Those with optimism here / Leave hanging from a rope / You won't find no angels here / No-one free of pain / Anyone with any sense / Has long since left this train / But since you seem to hang around / Let me lay down the law / This line has more low-lifes than / The Tunnels of Moose Jaw / CHORUS / So if it's a Devil that you're after / Someone to burn your lips / I need company to share / My apocalypse / If you've never tasted fear / But you know the scent of rage / If pride and lust inhabit you / Come break into my cage / Walk up to the cabin / Give the man my name / He'll open up the door for you / Just step into the flame / CHORUS [So don't you ring that bell]

When I get to a party, I know no-one there / But that doesn't matter, 'Cause I'm not scared / Who gives a fuck when I look around / If I'm greeted with a smile or I’m greeted with a frown / I'll just drink / 'Till I'm drunk / I'll just drink / 'Till I'm drunk / And I'll pour myself a single and then a double more / 'Cause the very best guests don't mind sleeping on the floor / And I'll turn the music up ‘til there's banging on the walls / And I'll turn my phone off 'cause I don't want any calls / CHORUS / Some people say that sobriety's fun / And some people say that a plant don't need the sun / Well if they offer water well I'll turn it into wine / It's gotta be fermented and then it is divine / CHORUS / And I'll have a bit of that, and I'll have a bit of this / And I'll leave my legs behind, When I'm going for a piss / I'll start in the evening won't remember the night / And I wake up in the morning and I know I'm alright / CHORUS / And if it can be eaten, drunk, or sniffed right up the nose / Let it work it work its magic right on down on to my toes / Let my pupils widen and let every synapse sing / And let me see the brighter side in each and every thing / CHORUS / A thousand miles high and I'll have another round / Falling doesn't hurt if you never hit the ground / When I have the present I ignore the other tenses / Hungover me can live with consequences / CHORUS / So I'll drink another bottle and I'll sing another song / Though the night is short and the day is far too long / And if I have no memories well that is just enough / 'Cause if I can remember then it wasn't up to snuff / CHORUS

Girls are girls are girls are fine / They don't need what I call mine / You know that since time began / Society favoured man / But now they've found their liberty / Women want equality / You raise your voice you scream and shout / I don't wanna go without / And as a / Straight, white, angry, male / Against society you rail / Girls are girls are girls are fine / They don't need what I call mine / You say that we're all the same / Equal in your favourite game / Don't you see your handicap? / Your position on the map? / You turn head you say you’re blind / You claim it's never crossed your mind / And as a / Straight, white, angry, male / You want the wind from out their sail / Girls are girls are girls are fine / They don't need what I call mine / Want their hands you want their tongue so / They can't show the damage done / But we'll all point and speak / A dam breaks with just one leak / Bake your head and grind your bones / You'll be buried all alone / And as a / Straight, white, angry, male / Your crusade is bound to fail /Girls are girls are girls are fine / They don't need what I call mine!

Salty Tears 03:22
I don't know when I first met you But I wish I could forget you Now that I have you here Lend me your ear Look how the mighty have fallen Hear the future a-callin' We will watch now Your final bow I'm gonna lick your salty tears Cry me a mighty ocean Such as Noah could not imagine I'm gonna lick your salty tears I know you despised me Before you laid your eyes one me But I am not alone and Flames will engulf your throne Look at what you have got now Your money and title can rot now May your forever be shamed The people can never be tamed I'm gonna lick your salty tears Cry me a mighty ocean Such as Noah could not imagine I'm gonna lick your salty tears

I know You don't Know me At all But I know all about you I know You don't Love me At all But I have always loved you I know You can't See me At all But I am watching you Be mine You're mine Be still Stay still I know One day You will See me Then you will love me too I know That day I will Hold you And keep your forever more I know That day We will Never Be apart ever again Be mine You're mine Be still Stay still I know You're mine Aren't you Happy No one can get to you now I know You're mine Aren't you Perfect Dressed up just like I like I have You now You are Mine now Nothing can wake you now Be mine You're mine Be still You're still

Work 03:28
Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Get away (x3) Before I... Go... Mad I don't want to do the same thing every day Can't you see how boring that is, it is tedious? How about I get your car or Rolex watch Wages aren't linked to how hard you work All your wealth comes from blind luck or birth Buy yourself distraction that we can't afford Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Get away (x3) Before I... Go... Mad We are born free but everywhere are in suits Gotta wear a thin slice of history If we can follow orders perfectly We might be allowed to give orders Become the boot crushing down our friends Still taking all the shit for the foot Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Get away (x3) Before I... Go... Mad (Instrumental) Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Get away (x3) Before I... Go... Mad Better follow the path others choose Madness, pain, death, poverty and addiction Are the only other choices possible In the end all it boils down to is What do you want your headstone made out of? Marble, stone, wood, or nothing at all. Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Ooh I gotta Get away (x3) Before I... Go... Mad

Do not trust anyone Who says they know best About how to behave When alone and undressed First they come for the coming Then they come for you Once your bedroom, is theirs Your whole world is too Who can save us? Onan the Barbarian! Six thousand years ago An all seeing God Had to give love lives An all seeing nod And now he's outsourced Such lascivious work To the devil, whose eyes On every PC lurk Who can save us? Onan the Barbarian Call a spade, a spade See they're digging a grave They rely, on the fact That we're all depraved Spill the seed, of revolt Upon the Earth But a seed, like that Can still give birth. Who can save us? Onan the Barbarian!

Oh... I'll... Carve my name into my chest, tell me who I love the best I don't need all the rest, I'm all I need to get undressed Boys and girls in magazines, spread their legs to get seen Brunettes, redheads, twinks and teens, want to be my kings and queens Other people make me sick, I'd rather sleep with dogs and pigs Keep your bras and thunder thighs, until I die I'm not deprived. I am a narcissist And I can't resist myself I can do just what I please, with no risk of disease Or false hopes and guarantees, not like all you other fleas Have a look at my reflection, what a natural selection Not a hint of imperfection, no one could raise an objection There is no God to set us free, just this mirror in front of me But I do not need to worry, in it I see divinity I will stare into my diamond eyes I can't tell me any lies All I need is me So... Here's to love and staying faithful, and for that love staying grateful Living life without the hateful, freedom as soon as post-natal Never lonely never sad, all I've wanted I have had, Have a go it ain't so bad, we need fewer mums and dads Drink a drink to myself, raise a glass to my health And know that you'll never be, as good a lover as I am to me I never feel left alone - even when I'm all alone Ain't that happiness?!?
