One trillion dollars could buy most anything
One trillion dollars buying bullets, buying guns
One trillion dollars in the hands of killers, thugs

911 For Peace

It's in the paper every day
Каждый день об этом пишут газеты
You see it in the headlines and you feel so sick, yeah
Читаешь заголовки и тебе становится грустно, да
Another life leaves this world so full of hate
Любая другая жизнь покидает этот мир, полный ненависти

There's no escaping the American attraction
A bait and switch that's gonna fill you with distraction
It sounds so good, can't resist the satisfaction
When it's all over you'll be crying, I'll be laughing, yeah

[Chorus]
I got that gun, got that drug
I've got everything you want

10 easy steps to create an enemy and start a war:
Listen closely because we will all see this weapon used in our lives.
It can be used on a society of the most ignorant to the most highly educated.
We need to see these tactics as a weapon against humanity
and not as truth.*

CHORUS:
This is how to create an enemy

he knows he'll be alone tonight,
while contemplating, "What can i do?"
The lack of hope leaves him feeling violent,
it's not that he's looking for a fight,
it's just... he don't know where to turn,
more stress than help,
from home and school,
and on the streets his life's out of control...

Sittin' home on a Saturday night
I can't believe she called me
I've beening waitin' for my whole life
And now she's dead

Betty Sue..is dead!
Betty Sue...

He knew he was gonna get it bad
As his dad bailed him out of jail
Leading him from the station.
By a handful of his hair He said
"I don't know what to do with you boy,
I just don't understand?!?!
What the hell makes you act like this?"
And looking back this lost punk said,

this is a song of solidarity
for the have-nots and for the under siege
for the persecuted and for the oppressed

this is for you

the free market is everything but free
.....

Spend a lifetime working for these people
To make what is earned in one day
There are options to choose, I call it Social Progress
Progress to not be abused

They were arrested for their views
It was the protesters they screwed
And still had the nerve to ask

Broken bones and broken glass,
Broken hearts and broken heads.
Livin’ the life.

Close my eyes try to make it last.
Outrun the wretched memories of my past.
It moves too fast.
I got no chance

Deceitful lie,
Alibis,
Bullshit opportunities,
With a disregard for fall guys.
No collar crime,

Stolen design,
Spineless snitch,

A-N-A-R-C-H-Y...

He says that for the punk rock scene
He'd give his fucking life
But he's only ever paid
To see a show once maybe twice
Instead he stands outside the halls
And pan handles for beer

What the hell am I doing here?
Trapped in this place all of these years.
Will I stay or go?
Will I lose or gain?
I'm getting out of here.
You'll never see this face again.

I threw a caution to the wind.

Woah oh Woah oh
Woah oh Woah oh

I woke up sweat soaked in the morning
I was mourning freedom buried deep.
Mourning freedom buried deep.
In tickers and broadcasts through powerlines.
Freedom buried in sound bites,

We have no rights and i am pissed
the bill of rights does not exist
this whole system is a lie
This system we should defy

Class Plague [x4]

Society the one we hate

Recruited by the NSA, my orders to talk smooth and straight
If heads of state try to say "No", I lovingly told them "Fuck you!"
The jackals lose when I cannot (get through)
There is a windfall of profit to (get to)
You better deal or we're gonna take you down

And it goes on and on and on and it goes on and on it goes
The iron fist for blood and empire, will make you move

A-N-A-R-C-H-Y !

He says that for the punk rock scene
He'd give his fucking life,
But he only ever paid to see a show once
maybe twice...

Instead he stands outside the halls

Дэйви разрушил панк-сцену

Он думает, что шипы на коже
Делают его охеренным панком, делают его крутым.
Он ходит повсюду,
Задрав нос так высоко,
Что выше его эго только волосы.
Он думает, что униформа, которую он носит,

When all you need was a little motivation
They pointed fingers and yelled dead generation
When all you need was a little care
All you got was an old white hair blank stare
Have you ever needed an ounce of love
And all you got was a whole lot of fucked

[Chorus:]

you've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
die for your country?
that's shit! there's a gulf war vet, dying a slow,
cold death and the government says,
"we don't know the source of his sickness."
but don't believe what they say,
because your government is lying they've done it before
and don't you know they'll do it again a secret test,

Gulp Gulp Gulp [x2]

I want to drink more beer
Until I puke

Drink Drank Punk (x4)

I'm so cool

First they came for the Communists,
And I did not speak out.
Then they came for the socialists,
And I did not speak out.
Next they came for the trade unionists,
And I did not speak out.
AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME

We live in a fabled world
Of dreaming boys and wide-eyed girls
Where precious few get a fair start
These times can break you
These times can leave you

Torn apart

A bunch of punks hangin' out on the streets before the show.
Patty waggon pulls up, instinct - Run man, let's just go!
Cop chases them through the streets and then they go inside.
They run into the crowd where maybe they can hide!

Fuck Police! Fuck Police! Fuck Police Brutality!
Fuck Police! Fuck Police! Fuck Police Brutality!
Fuck Police! Fuck Police! Fuck Police Brutality!

Like a ghost
Emptiness haunted his years
Still his heart was made of nothing less than good
Insecure narrative in his head
Something less than schizophrenia
Gripping him with every move that he makes
Breath he takes
A pitiful walk alone

You'll get yours when
you're good and ready
You'll get yours and go straight to hell
And when that day comes
You can be good and sure
The day belongs to us

The sign said: "detour" So I did

Sing a hymn for the dead
Because in death as in life
we are one in the same
Sing a hymn for the world
To avert eugenic errors, go!

The sun sets, the light fades
The blood red on an empty street

I don't need anybody

Hey!

I feel I'll rip your heart as though as I'm already drugged
Been searched through
Been lied to
Going out tonight

I don't wanna wait for celebrities son.
I don't wanna wait for 911.
I don't wanna wait for the magistrate.
I don't wanna wait just to masturbate.

What is it that defines you?
I don't wanna wait, I don't wanna wait
I don't wanna

[00:58.07]see you there, youve got a cold blank stare
[01:05.49]and you wish i was, but im not
[01:08.51]and you? well now you just dont get it
[01:13.08]its the hate in your eyes. its the hate in you heart
[01:16.13]i stand there and laugh as they cut you apart
[01:18.65]kill people for fun, kill people for sport

[01:20.08][Chorus x4]

Your invasion was a crime
Your righteous explanations - lies!
Kicking in our doors, raids at night
Won't win you hearts, you've lost your minds!
Your killing of my family
Did not make a fan out of me!
If this is what your freedom reaps
Keep it for your United States!

My father Michael is a genius
He sees this world the way no one can
He brought me up and he shaped my mind at the tender youthful age of 9
He said don't take this for the way it is
You better watch out son when you give in
Before you know it the friends you trust will have stabbed you in the back he said

If you wanna steal you better learn how to lie

The indie kids are a bunch of snobs, they complain
my timing's all off
I think timing is for stupid fucks! why do they think I
play PUNK ROCK?!?!
Steve Albini playing god of indie haven, stupid dorks
keeping time in seven and eleven!

Indie sux, Hard-line sux, Emo sux, YOU SUCK! X2

Arm in arm. fists held high
"SET THEM FREE!" - our battle cry
Take back the streets
And our rights to free speech
Locked up and put away
For fear of what they'll say

Crooked cops plus crooked judges, don't equal justice

I always thought if you want to change the world
Then you have to start with yourself
So if the heads of state want to end terrorism
They should go ahead and kill themselves

I will not sign my blind faith away
To an unjustly leader of the unjust police state
Corporate masters live in their cess pool

I always thought if you want to change the world
Then you have to start with yourself
So if the heads of state want to end terrorism
They should go ahead and kill themselves

I will not sign my blind faith away
To an unjustly leader of the unjust police state
Corporate masters live in their cess pool

No future

everything that i see
there is no future for me
everything that i read
there is no future for me
GO!

Smoke stacks reach the sky
As talk of revolution heats the air
On every city street
In every state the truth stands all too clear
(1,2,3,4!)

The kids are sick and tired of the news today
Sick and tired of all the lies

They’re sleeping between satin sheets while huddled masses sleep in streets
Tucked in at night they lay and dream of Corporate State Theocracy
Two steps ahead, three goose steps back
While the sheep sleep the wolf attacks
Nothing Recedes… Nothing recedes like progress
Evil doesn’t stop to breath, bleed till nothing’s left to bleed
You’re contemplating middle ground while empire heads release the hounds
You’re dealing with a sick machine, where there’s no heart there’s no heart beat

I saw right through your eyes.
I saw right through your guise.
Every word that left you lips was
just a covert disguise to hide your absent mind.
You live and breathe.
Sleep and drink.
Beg and plead.
Blind, diseased.

The people, united, will never be defeated.
The people, united, will never be defeated.
The people, united, will never be defeated.
The people, united, will never be defeated.
The people, united, will never be defeated.
The people, united, will never be defeated.

Time to see the world as a whole!

The people, united, will never be defeated. [x6]

Time to see the world as a whole!
Time to light
The fire with the fuel!
That's a conscience movement, in our hearts.
Everywhere you look red white and blue
Everywhere you look they're fooling you.

На триллион долларов много побрякушек куплю,
На триллион долларов купить практически все могу.
Триллион долларов тратится на пули и стволы,
Триллион долларов в руках бандитов и шпаны.

О-о-о-о-о
Пошли мир подальше, много людей умрет сегодня!
О-о-о-о-о

Однажды один чернокожий парень
Прогуливался вниз по улице,
Которую держат расисты
В голубом в Брентвуде, Пенсильвания.
Нет никаких реальных причин,
Они не имеют никакого права.
Только то, что в их глазах
Он - неправильный оттенок белого.

Sons and daughters of a dream
the urge to struggle for an ideal
to stay and fight
oppose war fever
refuse to kill or be killed
there's voices calling in the wind and they sing
POWER TO THE PEACEFUL
with a readiness of all forms

The memo says:
We gotta work to make the facts fit the false charges
Pull the wool over the eyes of the filthy masses
Stab the people in the back for the corporate choice
Roll the propaganda out using The People's Voice.

We don't want to talk about it.

It's a gut check of what you believe

A Global Pax Americana
Neo-con, neo-fascist blue print - USA hegemony
Charlatan war hawks, untried, untrue
Celebrate and exploit tragedy
To steal away control

and so the time has finally come
the bourgeoisie has signed the war decree with proletariat blood
and that blood which flows from their pen
is the closest that they've ever been to the people
you've been to our shows
you've sung our songs
now we're asking you to add to each chorus you've sung and
protest, against, injustice, state terror

Im standing with the rank-n-file,
Im marching with the underground,
Our black hearts worn on our sleeves!

Let my imagination go and drop me where i feel most scared.
Snap back already giving thanks, im not trapped working in a sweatshop somewhere.
This songs for those less fortunate, locked in a world where both ends arent meant to meet.

they use the flag to control us
brainwash you to be their patriotic slaves
brainwash you by controlling what we learn
the only difference from the nazis is that someone tried to stop them

red, white and brainwashed [x4]

the government says they're working for us just as long as we increase their pay

Thrown out by her family
In the midst of anger
Mom and dad can't make sense
Of her sexual preference
It seems the cars
Just drive by on this night
No one has any idea
What this feels like

You know I feel so violent,
Just want to break some glass,
Every day I pray it'll be my last
Turning to a blank wall
Wondering what to do?
Turning to a caliber .22
Every day he starts the same old fight.
And every day it just gets worse by night.

I was talking to this girl before a show
Does she like me? i don't know
I asked her to go out on saturday night
She said "ok that would be alright"

Then she left she had to go to work
She gave me her number and said, "i feel like a jerk."
I asked her if she'd dance for a song

Go go go go go go dancer (x2)

I was talking to this girl before a show
Does she like me? I don't know
I asked her to go out on Saturday night
She said "OK that would be alright"
Then she left she had to go to work
She gave me her number she said, "I feel like a jerk."

I see my future straight in front of me
A super structure blown to smithereens
It's getting hard to hold to hope these days
I know it's much too late
Blasted lives lay in the debris
Blasted hearts where there once were dreams
Right now it's dark
And this is just the start

Nailed To The Cross, Dead For Collective Sin!
We Decide Where, Why, Who And When!
Build Our Bibles To Only Include...
The Things That We Believe To Be Divine And True!
This Is Our Right!
This Is Our Life!
Everyone Homogenized!

Nailed to the cross, dead for collective sin
We decide where, why, who and when
Build our bibles to only include
The things that we believe to be divine and true
This is our right
This is our life
Everyone homogenized

You want to save the world?
I can tell you what to do!
You want to end terror?
This solution is for you!
Answer the call up join the proud the few.
Pull on the trigger with your heart and soul
Cause war is peace now we know.

I want to tell a little story 'bout a party that went all right, but went all wrong
I want to tell a little story 'bout a party in this song...

it happened back in '93, in the Pittsburgh punk rock scene
an event that will go down, in infamy
it was all the master plan, of one legendary punk rock kid
his name was "spaz", s-p-a-z...

How can we be free?

The bloodline of kings in the house of white
Lynch law abiding citizens cashing in their rights
The sky is on fire
The sky is on fire
It's blood red and torching any horizon it desires

Welcoming with open arms and, with open hearts
In the end they found their arms in shackles and their hearts torn out
This country named "America", is built on graves
Of the natives who lived here before, genocide took place
The word "America" means "freedom" - as in, "free to kill the free..."

Don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me
Don't fly those stripes, those stars-and-stripes for me, for me...

This is the sound of a dropping bomb

After years are we still all content
With being pawns in war game chess?
Shuffled by King George and his English Queen
On a board of autocracy

As fundamentalist citing stories and fables

This is the sound of a dropping bomb

After years are we still all content
With being pawns in war game chess?
Shuffled by King George and his English Queen
On a board of autocracy

As fundamentalist citing stories and fables

If you utter a sound
Or make a move
We'll kill you
Then they gathered around me
One man took my right arm
And another man took my left
When the third man grabbed the front of my coat
Then thrown in to an automobile we go

No one flag flies over the multi-national company.
No allegiance to the board's homeland, fellow citizens, the flag born of their country.
As the brainwashed nationalists move,
To shed their blood on battle fields.
War profiteering rich watch their stocks reap high yields.

We're tearing down the borders!
We're fighting for the rights of freedom!

Punk-Rock


16 year old girl, in a hollow carved out place
Just looking for some prettiness,
But the cuts in her arm don’t paint for her, a very pretty view
In her mind... she dreams that she is... far away, from...

Don't trust them as far as you can throw them.
Because as strong as you may be you won't be able to move them an inch.
But you don't have to believe me go ahead and,
Be the corporate stooge that they trained you to be and...
Then you'll see what you get for your loyalty!

They call it "down sizing" but that's just a backhanded saying.
For the phrase: "we're gonna screw you, until you're down on your knees...

I've Seen A Lot Of Rip Offs In My Life...
Seen A Lot Of Scams, A Lot Of Crooks...
And Crooked Schemes, Crooked Sharks...
Part One Of The Story Reads...
The Liquor Store Thief, The Stick-Up Man...
Thrown Into The Clink, Never Coming Back, Yeah!
Until The Day He's Gray And Old...
Go!

I’ve seen a lot of rip-offs in my life.
Seen a lot of scams.
A lot of crooks and crooked schemes, crooked sharks.
Part one of the story reads…
The liquor store thief.
The stick up man.
Thrown into the clink,
never coming back, yeah, until the day he’s grey and old.

He was the poster child of miserable
He was in love with colored boy
No chance for hope in a land of servitude.
And now the ghosts of Alexandria
Hang in the halls like the boys on the oak
To remind us that we’re only 13 knots away
From repeating our mistakes
No one can see on the inside

Destruction, do it again!
Destruction! Do it again!

Destruction, do it again!
Destruction! Do it again!

Strap in and watch the world decay.
The latest disaster today.

The time has come to say goodnight.
The time has come to say goodbye to the old guard.
Goodnight.
Goodbye.
Witness the setting sun.
The tables have been turned.
We will not suffer their reprise.
A brave new voice rings out.

their 2+2 does not equal 4
their 2+2 equals whatver, they want us to die for

about face! - snap to attention
form your own conclusions to the things you see
about face! - sometimes the explanations
don't add - up to the facts

The memo says...

...We gotta work to make the facts fit the false charges
Pull the wool over the eyes of the filthy masses
Stab the people in the back for the corporate choice
Roll the propaganda out using The People's Voice

We don't want to talk about it...

Times up!
You’re outta luck and your back’s up against the wall.
From Tunisia to Washington the people are calling: “No!”

Your gas n guns, your clubs n thugs, your lies on the TV,
None of that can save you now as your reign is swept away.

Get up! Get up!

No they won't miss you when you're gone
When your heart stops beating and pumping blood
Pull the pin, light the fuse, this song's the smartest bomb...

You make your own choices and decisions,
You are invulnerable to influences
Sit down, line up, knuckle down, shut up
An electrifying organized crime,

The rich control the world's economic state
Creating poverty for their own sake
Poverty breeds crime, that threatens you
So you support the police in what ever they do
You give up your rights don't you know the truth?
It makes no difference they.. don't protect you!
Don't protect you! don't protect you!
Don't protect you! don't protect you! and that's the truth!

This is the first night,
of the rest of our lives.
I can't help wonder,
"How is it we're still alive?"

Welcome to the first night of the rest of our lives.
Oh Yeah, and I said,
welcome to the first night of the rest of our lives.

You're a flame and I'm a candle
I'm a wick and you're a breeze
I'm a rock and you are paper
And I'm scissors if you please

You see, I can't find myself these days
I don't know where to look
Turn the page, hit the lights, close the book

TURNCOAT!
KILLER!
LIAR!
THIEF!
1,2,1,2,3,4
TURNCOAT! KILLER! LIAR! THIEF!
Criminal with protection of the law!

Shit, shit, the Lord's shit!
Shit, shit, the Lord's shit!

Black robe, golden epaulettes
All parishioners crawl to bow
The phantom of liberty is in heaven
Gay-pride sent to Siberia in chains

It's time to make a move, (woah-oh)
Change the times or they’ll change you. (woah-oh)
False promises of more. (of more)
Check that shit at the door. (the door)
We’re the ones we’ve been waiting for.

We are the one
United under none.

All night out on the streets
I got the back of all my friends
We never want to go back home
Never want the night to end

CHORUS
Because we want to be... FREE!
We want to be...FREE!

Кто сбросил бы бомбу на Иисуса?
Да, кто мог бы убить Иисуса?
Двойные стандарты - прошлое сюрреально.
Слова бога - теперь слова ненависти.
Война - это мир, а свобода - это полицейское государство.
Разве вы не видите надпись на стене?
Демократия лежит растоптанная на земле...

Wave goodbye to yourself
And wave goodbye to your friends
This is the end of the world

What do you think about Western Civilization?
I fear Ghandi said it best:
"It would be a good idea."

One billion workers stand up from their chairs.
Their faces no longer struck with their fears.
Attack/Attack.
Stabbed in the back.
Disgraced/Disgraced.
Traitors trade face to face.
Revolution... the engine for history.
When all the lights go out.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!

America blown to smithereens.
Your friends, your home, your life your family.

BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Smithereens. I wish i could say this was unforseen.

You Can Kill the Protester But You Can't Kill the Protest

You can spoon my eyes out,
But I can still see through you.
Slice my ears from my head,
but you can't shut out the sounds of truth.
Lock off each hand at the wrist
So I can't raise my fist!

You've gotta die, gotta die, gotta die for your government?
Die for your country? That's shit!
There's a Gulf War vet, dying a slow, cold death
And the government says, "We don't know the source of his sickness."
But don't believe what they say, because your government is lying
They've done it before and don't you know they'll do it again
A secret test, government built virus
"Subject Test Group: Gulf Battle Field Troops"

And I was burnin' like a forest fire
Yeah, I was burning like gasoline, lit
When I heard the things you said
Drown out the things you did..Yeah!
than I thought of your neck,
thought of your beautiful blue eyes
While the police gas suffocated our lungs
burnt our insides,
