01   The Love Song (00:00)

02   Lunchbox (00:00)

Bring me down
On we plow
The big bully try to stick his finger in my chest
Try to tell me, tell me he's the best
But I don't really give a good goddamn 'cause

I got my lunchbox and I'm armed real well
I got my lunchbox and I'm armed real well
I got my lunchbox and I'm armed real well

I wanna grow up
I wanna be a big rock and roll star
I wanna grow up

So no one fucks with me

I got my pencils in my pocket, try to put me down
Wanna go out, gotta get out to the playground
Gonna throw down at the playground
I wanna go out

Next motherfucker gonna get my metal
Next motherfucker gonna get my metal
Next motherfucker gonna get my metal

Pow, pow, pow
Pow, pow, pow

03   Tourniquet (00:00)

She's made of hair and bone and little teeth
The things that cannot speak
She comes on like a crippled plaything
Her spine is just a string
I wrapped our love in all this foil
Silver tight like spider legs
I never wanted it to ever spoil
But flies will lay their eggs

Take your hatred out on me
Make your victim my head
You never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet

Prosthetic synthesis and butterfly
Sealed up with virgin stitch
If it hurts baby please tell me
Preserve the innocence
I never wanted it to end like this
But flies will lay their eggs

Take your hatred out on me
Make your victim my head
You never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet

What I wanted, what I needed
What I got for me
What I wanted, what I needed
What I got for me

Take your hatred out on me
Make your victim my head
You never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet

Take your, take your
Get up out of me
I'm not proud with me
I never ever believed in me
I am your tourniquet

04   Rock Is Dead (00:00)

All simple monkeys with alien babies
Amphetamines for boys
Crucifixes for ladies
Sampled and soulless
Worldwide and real webbed
You sell all the living
For more safer dead

Anything to belong
Anything to belong

Rock - Is deader than dead
Shock - Is all in your head
Your sex and your dope is all that we're fed
So fuck all your protests and
Put them to bed

God is in the TV

Rock! La, la, la, la, la, la
Rock! La, la, la, la, la
Rock! La, la, la, la, la, la
Rock! La, la, la, la, la

One thousand mothers are praying for it
We're so full of hope
And so full of shit
Build a new God
To medicate and to ape
Sell us Ersatz
Dressed up and real fake

Anything to belong
Anything to belong

Rock - Is deader than dead
Shock - Is all in your head
Your sex and your dope is all that we're fed
So fuck all your protests and
Put them to bed

God is in the TV

05   Get Your Gunn (00:00)

Goddamn your righteous hand

I eat innocent meat
The housewife I will beat
The prolife I will kill
What you won't do I will
I bash myself to sleep
What you sow I will reap
I scar myself you see
I wish I wasn't me
I am the little stick
You stir me into shit
I hate therefore I am
Goddamn your righteous hand
Goddamn ooh Lord, Goddamn ooh Lord
Goddamn ooh Lord, Goddamn ooh Lord

Pseudo-morals work real well
On the talk shows for the weak
But your Selective judgements and good guy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me

I throw a little fit
I slit my teenage wrist
The most that I can learn
Is in records that you burn
Get your gunn, get your gunn
Get your gunn, get your gunn

Pseudo-morals work real well
On the talk shows for the weak
But your selective judgements and good guy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me
Pseudo-morals work real well

But your selective judgements and good guy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me

I am the VHS
Record me with your fist
You want me to save the world
I'm just a little girl

Pseudo-morals work real well
On the talk shows for the weak
But your selective judgements and good guy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me
Pseudo-morals work real well
On the talk shows for the weak
But your selective judgements and good guy badges
Don't mean a fuck to me

Get your gunn, get your gunn
Get your gunn, get your gunn...Get

07   Long Hard Road Out Of Hell (00:00)

I want to fly into your sun
Need faith to make me numb
Live like a teenage Christ
I'm a saint, got a date with suicide

Oh Mary, Mary
To be this young is oh so scary
Mary, Mary
To be this young I'm oh so scared
I wanna live, I wanna love
But it's a long hard road out of hell
I wanna live, I wanna love
But it's a long hard road out of hell

You never said forever, could ever hurt like this
You never said forever, could ever hurt like this

Swim my way out of Hell
There's nothing left, not a soul to sell
Live fast and die fast too
How many times to do this for you?
How many times to do this for you?

Mary, Mary
To be this young I'm oh so scared
I wanna live, I wanna love
But it's a long hard road out of hell
I wanna live, I wanna love
But it's a long hard road out of hell

I wanna live, I wanna love
But it's a long hard road out of hell
Sell my soul for anything, anything but you
Sell my soul for anything, anything but you

08   The Beautiful People (00:00)

And I don't want you, and I don't need you
Don't bother to resist, or I'll beat you
It's not your fault that you're always wrong
The weak ones are there to justify the strong

The beautiful people, the beautiful people
It's all relative to the size of your steeple
You can't see the forest for the trees
And you can't smell your own shit on your knees

There's no time to discriminate
Hate every motherf-ker that's in your way

Hey, you, what do you see?
Something beautiful, something free?
Hey, you, are you trying to be mean?
When you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean

The worms will live in every host
It's hard to tell which one they hate the most
The horrible people, the horrible people
It's all anatomic as the size of your steeple
Capitalism has made it this way
Old-fashioned fascism
Will take it away

Hey you, what do you see?
Something beautiful, something free?
Hey you, are you trying to be mean?
When you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean

There's no time to discriminate
Hate every motherf-ker that's in your way

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey

The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people

Hey, you, what do you see?
Something beautiful and something free?
Hey you, are you trying to be mean?
When you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean
Hey, you, what do you see?
Something beautiful and something free?
Hey you, are you trying to be mean?
When you live with apes, man, it's hard to be clean

The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people
The beautiful people, the beautiful people

09   The Reflecting God (00:00)

Your world is an ashtray!
We burn and coil like cigarettes,
The more you cry your ashes turn to mud......

The nature of the leeches! The virgin's feeling cheated!
You've only spent a second of your life.....

My world is unaffected, there is an exit here,
I say it is and it's true.......

There is a dream inside a dream,
I'm wide awake the more I sleep,
You'll understand when I'm dead.......

I went to God just to see.....
and I was looking at me....
Saw heaven and hell were lies.....
When I'm God everyone-
-DIES! SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
SHOOT, HERE AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!
SCAR, SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
ONE, SHOT AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!

Let's jump upon the sharp swords,
Cut away our smiles
Without the threat of death
There's no reason to live, at all,

My world is unaffected, there is an exit here,
I say it is and it's true....

There is a dream inside a dream,
I'm wide awake the more I sleep,
You'll understand when I'm dead......

I went to God just to see....
and I was looking at me...
Saw heaven and hell were lies....
When I'm God everyone-
-DIES! SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
SHOOT, HERE AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!
SCAR, SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
ONE, SHOT AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!
SCAR, SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
SHOOT, HERE AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!
SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT MOTHERFUCKER!
SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT MOTHERFUCKER......

Each thing I show you is a piece of my death!

No salvation, no forgiveness, (repeated)
(This is beyond your experience.....)
No salvation, no forgiveness, ("FORGIVENESS!" x 7)
No salvation, no forgiveness....

(applause)

(acoustic guitar)
I went to God just to see.....
and I was looking at me...
Saw heaven and hell were lies.....
When I'm God everyone-(exit acoustic guitar)
-DIES! SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
SHOOT, HERE AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!
SCAR, SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
SHOOT, HERE AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!
SCAR, SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
SHOOT, HERE AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!
SCAR, SCAR CAN YOU FEEL MY POWER?!
ONE, SHOT AND THE WORLD GETS SMALLER!
SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT MOTHERFUCKER!
SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT MOTHERFUCKER!
SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT MOTHERFUCKER!
SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT MOTHERFUCKER!

10   Personal Jesus (00:00)

Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who's there

Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer
Take second best
Put me to the test
Things on your chest
that we need to confess
I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver

Reach out and touch faith

Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares

I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver

Waltzing to scum and base and
Married to the pain

Bang, we want it

12   The Fight Song (00:00)

Nothing suffocates you more than the passing of everyday human events
And isolation is the oxygen mask you make your children breath it to survive

I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a shit

And when we were good
You just closed your eyes
So when we are bad
We'll scar your minds

Fight, fight, fight, fight
Fight, fight, fight, fight

You'll never grow up to be a big-rock-star-celebrated-victim-of-your-fame
They'll just cut our wrists like cheap coupons
And say that death was on sale today

And when we were good
You just closed your eyes
So when we are bad
We'll scar your minds

But I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a shit

The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of one is a tragedy
The death of millions is just a statistic

But I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a shit
But I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist
I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a shit

Fight, fight, fight, fight
Fight, fight, fight, fight

13   Tainted Love (00:00)

Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night

Once I ran to you
(I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love... oh
Tainted love

Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want any more from me
To make things right
Need someone to hold you tight
And you'll think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way

Once I ran to you
(I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love... oh
Tainted love

Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go

Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love
Touch me baby, tainted love

Once I ran to you
(I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Tainted love... oh
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
Tainted love
