THURSDAY LYRICS - Autobiography Of A Nation

THURSDAY LYRICS

"Autobiography Of A Nation"

Write these words back down inside

We have burned their villages

people in them died (all the people in them died)

We adopt their customs and everything they say we steal

(All the dreams they had we kill)



Still we all sleep sound tonight

Is this what you wanted to hear?

We erased all their images and dance

And replaced them with borders and flags



Everything you say you stole

Everything you say you stole



At the top of this timeline you'll remember

This is the lipstick on the collar

And in my own life I've seen it in the mirror

sometimes at the cost of others hopes



So write these words back down inside

That's where you need it the most

and without conviction of heart

you will never feel it at all



Yeah, we all dance to the same beat when we we're marching

Yeah, the TV tells us everything we need

And this scene is painting in all the fashions of the moment

And history is all the same



Everything you say you stole

Every dream you dream you bought

GOB LYRICS - When Life Gets Boring

GOB LYRICS

"When Life Gets Boring..."

She creeps into my head so many mornings.

What am I supposed to do when life gets boring?

This fixation with her, it goes much deeper

Than just a photograph; wish I could keep her.



Can't get her off my mind, happens all the time.

I'm tearing everything down.



Oh, I should have known better.

Oh, I should have known better.



I watch her shop for clothes, true value vintage.

Stare from across the room, she makes her purchase.

The wheel inside my head has started rolling.

It's going to take me away (it's going to take me away).



Can't get her off my mind, happens all the time (ah).

I'm tearing everything down.



Oh, I should have known better.

Oh, I should have known better.



Can't get her off my mind, happens all the time.

I'm tearing everything down.

Get her off my mind, happens all the time.

I'm tearing everything down, get down!



I'll keep my distance.

I'm better off putting this behind me.

I'm overdrawn, I withdrew.

I'm down and out and thanks to you.

I'll keep my distance.

I'm better off putting this behind me.

I'm overdrawn, I withdrew.

I'm down and out and thanks to you.



Oh, I should have known better.

Oh, I should have known better.

Oh, I should have known better.

Oh, I should have known...

Whoa, whoa, I should have known better.

Oh, I should have known better.

Oh, I should have known better.

Oh, I should have known...

THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM LYRICS - God's Gonna Cut You Down

THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM LYRICS

"God's Gonna Cut You Down"

Traditional folk song, cover of a Johnny Cash version

You can run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Sooner or later God'll cut you down



Go tell that long tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider

Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down



Well my goodness gracious let me tell you the news

My head's been wet with the midnight dew

I've been down on bended knee talkin' to the man from Galilee

He spoke to me in the voice so sweet

I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet

He called my name and my heart stood still

When he said, "John go do My will!"



Go tell that long tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider

Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down



You can run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Sooner or later God'll cut you down



Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand

Workin' in the dark against your fellow man

But as sure as God made black and white

What's down in the dark will be brought to the light



You can run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Run on for a long time

Sooner or later God'll cut you down

Sooner or later God'll cut you down



Go tell that long tongue liar

Go and tell that midnight rider

Tell the rambler, the gambler, the back biter

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down

Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down

Headlines Read Out... from ep "Between The Ink And Paper"





Stay for a moment and

I promise that I will be different

And you'll see me

Wait, wait

And I'll show you

There is more to this if you will listen

And you'll soon believe



Extra, extra, hear me now



I am not the kind

That will hide

Beneath the lights

And lyrical one liners

I can't stand the hype



And I am not the kind

That will lie

Between the lines of love

And faking it all for these

Headlines read out... whoa



Stay for a moment

I'll be the biggest bet

With greater odds

That you have ever seen

Wait, wait

Someone stop me now

Cause I don't think

I can hold this down for you

You'll see me



Extra, extra, hear me now



I am not the kind

That will hide

Beneath the lights

And lyrical one liners

I can't stand the hype



And I am not the kind

That will lie

Between the lines of love

And faking it all for these

Headlines read out... whoa



Can't you see that this is proof you need?

Can't you see that this is what we all need?



I am not the kind

That will hide

Beneath the lights

And lyrical one liners

I can't stand the hype



And I am not the kind

That will lie

Between the lines of love

And faking it all for these

Headlines read out... whoa

THE SUICIDE MACHINES LYRICS - Face Values

THE SUICIDE MACHINES LYRICS

"Face Values"

You've got No friends and so you're lonely.

It does not have to be this way

Just be yourself, the one and only

It take some time but that's okay



Alright, no need to fight

'cause everybody's different

and there's nothin you can do about it

and just because i dont look like you or act like you

It doesn't make me any better or worse



I used to be just like you

instead I found better things to do

than worry 'bout what the others think

or wonder if there's something wrong with me



You hate yourself cause you're not like them

well understand that this is wrong

You're better off doing your own thing,

being yourself and being strong

THE MORNING OF LYRICS - Diagnosis: Cold Weather

THE MORNING OF LYRICS

"Diagnosis: Cold Weather"

I can't believe I fell for that,

your act with me would get an Emmy in romantic tragedies



I pretend you're my blanket at night and I hold you so tight

And for that little moment where I believe it's you

It's like the sunrise came early and and decided to stay (stay for a day)

And the beautiful pink that comes about is so reminiscent of you (so ugly compared to you)



I wish I was the scarf around your neck, I'd tie myself so tight,

And watch your lungs drain to blue, how does

it feel to have the breath knocked out of you



I guess I'll be it and I'll count to a 100 or if you want more time

I'll count the times that you hurt me, and you can make your getaway

isn't this the chance you've been waiting for? (I'm sick of your games),

the moment where I take my eyes off you, so as to not peek,

the coast is clear and it's clear it's not only little kids that cheat



I wish I was the scarf around your neck, I'd tie myself so tight,

And watch your lungs drain to blue,

how does it feel to have the breath knocked out of you



I watch your lungs turn drain to blue,

how does it feel to have the breath knocked out of you

FRENZAL RHOMB LYRICS - 4 Litres

FRENZAL RHOMB LYRICS

"4 Litres"

Sup...

Comes in a box

It will fuck you up

It speaks so softly to you

tell you to have a sup

It's moselle, chablis, ros©, reisling

When you think it's gone

Well you know it's not

Just blow it up

Because you know it's all you've got

It's cheaper than the box it comes in

4 Litres...

Choke on number 1

Retch on number 2

When four comes around you know that it's all good news

Only buy claret if it's the last goon in the shop

4 litres...

sup the goon

sup it

MUSTARD PLUG LYRICS - Grow Up

MUSTARD PLUG LYRICS

"Grow Up"

When I was just a little boy, I'd sit around all day.

Thinking about the future to pass the time of day.

With my friends sittin' laughin', they would mainly laugh at me,

because I was always different, it was all so plain to see.

Didn't want to be a fireman, a cowboy, or a cop.

I was always different like a sore thumb I stuck out.

Because even in my dreams I won't pretend to age,

I knew a life of normalcy was nothing but a cage.

When I grow up, I don't want to be like you!



To be a barbarian would be a lot of fun.

Sit around, eat raw meat in the mid day sun.

I'd dance around the fire, like a madman I would yell,

I'd smell a bit I'd fart a lot, I'd cut class and I'd belch.

I'd sack the Roman Empire and do with a grin.

I'd set the cities all ablaze...do it on a whim.

And people would shriek as I was coming into town,

because I'd bring my minotaur to help me fry it down.



When I grow up, I want something fun to do.

I don't know much, but this much I know is true..

when life is short, I don't want to be like you!



When I grow up I think I want to be white trash

living in a trailer park and sitting on my ass.

I'd beat my wife and kids, my kids are passed out in the lawn.

I'd steal my brewskies from my mom and often kick my dog.

I'd go to work an hour later, bitch about my boss.

I'd tell sexist jokes to all my friends to get my weight across.

And every friday night I think I'd bowl a round or two,

because standing watching monster trucks is just the thing to do!!

HOSTAGE LIFE LYRICS - The Last Superman Or Fall Of The Ubermensch

HOSTAGE LIFE LYRICS

"The Last Superman Or Fall Of The Ubermensch"

all your gods new and old are dead flying over our heads on a fraying thread

your golden age is through soon we’ll all be on the same plane as you

been walking through us on stilts

out of sight, unmarred by guilt but I can see you growing weaker

the scales teeter

you’re falling from the sky

one at a time

you can’t hide your crimes forever

the line between you and your lies can’t be severed

your trade’s shading our eyes but the scum under your boots is poised to rise

RIVETS LYRICS - Dubbing

RIVETS LYRICS

"Dubbing"

Dubbing to contest the musicality

Feeling that the music is OK

So, let's know what you say



When I have my guitar it's easy to create

I just play all the chords and think of something that sounds great

Imagining the bass, playing the finger drums

And getting to sing loud fucking my vocal chords



Oh, yeah, I sing loud

I shout like if I was in a show

Playing all the songs I know

But now I'm so far

Playing with my mind is not the way

To be a popstar



Down here in Florence with no instruments to play

I sing back to my friend just to find out what he says

He looks right back to me, a smile in his mouth

He knows it's a good song, I manage to sing loud



Oh, yeah, I sing loud

I shout like if I was in a show

Playing all the songs I know

But now I'm so far

Playing with my mind is not the way

To be a popstar



Even playing with my mind

I have a feeling that the music is great

So let it roll thru our ears and inside our hearts

And maybe sing with me

Go on and try alone

Force your throat, free your tongue

ATTAQUE 77 LYRICS - El Perro

ATTAQUE 77 LYRICS

"El Perro"

El perro estaba revolviendo basura

buscando algo que comer

quise acercarme y ofrecerle mi ayuda

pero el se echó a correr

Yo pude ver.. yo pude ver la contorsión de su cuerpo

y la muerte en su piel

creí que todo lo soñé... creí que todo lo soñé

pero el perro estaba mirándome, lleno de miedo.

Sus ojos eran como un par de agujeros,

se veía en su interior..

que el corazón ya le latía muy lento,

de tanto entregar amor.

Yo pude ver.. yo pude ver la contorsión de su cuerpo

y la muerte en su piel

creí que todo lo soñé... creí que todo lo soñé

pero el perro estaba mirándome, lleno de miedo.

El hombre del recolector se lleva la última ilusión

el perro lo siguió detrás, nada para destacar

el frió congeló mi sol y el día nunca comenzó

la lluvia cae en la ciudad,

nada para destacar... hablaba sin razón

Me fui cargando la culpa del cobarde

y la impotencia de pensar...

que al ser humano no le basta su raza.

y destruye a las demás

yo pude ver... yo pude ver

la contorsión de mi cuerpo y la muerte de mi piel

creí que todo lo soñé, creí que todo lo soñé ante el espejo

observándome, lleno de miedo.

El hombre del recolector se lleva la última ilusión

el perro lo siguió detrás, nada para destacar

el frió congeló mi sol y el día nunca comenzó

la lluvia cae en la ciudad,

nada para destacar... hablaba sin razón

Hablaba sin razón......

DWARVES LYRICS - Dominator

DWARVES LYRICS

"Dominator"

I am the dominator leader of the pack

Two tons of steel that's hanging from my sack

I take the cake and then I take it back and attack

Yeah because you lack, Jack

I am the dominator moving right along

Don't really give a fuck about the right or wrong

You only copy right, I write the song

It's a world full of jealousy and hate

That's why some die and all the others turn out late

But I eviscerate those who hesitate

Second rate they masturbate while I run the master race

I am the dominator got to be the best

I've got an "S" tattooed upon my chest

You can not touch me I'm Elliot Ness

Oh yes you must confess this

I am the dominator

THE LAWRENCE ARMS LYRICS - Warped Summer Extravaganza (Major Excellent)

THE LAWRENCE ARMS LYRICS

"Warped Summer Extravaganza (Major Excellent)"

it's burning and it's burning, it's burning,

a fire inside that i just don't believe

some call it anger, some say frustration

but i think i call this big greed

this time the circus has left without us

and we could run away

the fringe is the center now,

hey boys that's great



when i woke up in hawthorne,

i took ocean down to the fairground to see everyone

so beautiful that i drown in the waves of the haircuts

spin kicks and jumps

well i got my bottled water and my nachos,

it came in under twenty bucks

i got this bad taste in the back of my mouth

from my time on the back of a bus



this summer vacation, it's cheap and it's true

it's ideals are intact, it's the best we can do

this time you turn into your own enemy

not sell outs but dictated economies



(whoo!)



these thieves, these thieves in their flip-flops and bro attitudes

are the very reason we do what we do

when i say fuck the man, it's what i believe

no matter who that man happens to be.

no matter who that man happens to be.



this kevin or that one, it all seems the same

exploit the avenues, fix all the gains

maybe they'll buy everything that you sell

but i'm outside these fences,

rolling fast down that hill...



fuck your warped ideals!

mother fucker!

DROP DEAD, GORGEOUS LYRICS - Worse Than A Fairy Tale

DROP DEAD, GORGEOUS LYRICS

"Worse Than A Fairy Tale"

Call me a temptress.

Call me a whore.

That's just a price tag.

I'm not for sale.



Don't be so obvious.

It's so unattractive, you know.



You're singing in your sleep.

This won't feel all right at all in the morning.



But I still have your kiss and your soft skin.



You're singing in your sleep.

This won't feel all right at all in the morning.



Don't play detective now.

You can try, but you won't find a trace.

It's a sin to have these eyes.

Well, God blessed me with good taste.



The shadows come from under the ground,

They sweep you off your feet.

As soon as the sun sets,

The fucking earth sinks.

THE REUNION SHOW LYRICS - Art Of Nothing

THE REUNION SHOW LYRICS

"Art Of Nothing"

Staring off, into outer-space

Stumbling, creating my entity

One that is, not belonging in my Kino sphere

I want to perfect the art of doing nothing

I want to see your paintings come alive

I want to see you smile when i say, "i love thee"



Can't believe my eyes

As my thought hit the sky

All this nonsense, all this beauty

Has truly come alive



Drive all night, middle of nowhere

Ship-wreckage, left of this page

And on the bottom, and in the top

Where are we going, maybe we should...

I don't want to write a depressing song

I don't want to hide behind my music

I don't want to see the world through these tinted yellow glasses



Time keeps eating me

Against that time

If ever that time come

running, running



Time keeps cutting me

Against that time

If ever that time come

running, running

SENSES FAIL LYRICS - Slow Dance

SENSES FAIL LYRICS

"Slow Dance"

If you pull too hard

Then the string will break.

And if you leave the slack

Then the string won't hold.



So how can we find ourselves

Trapped in our own private hells

Where we just scream but no one can hear

'X' marks the spot where the dig begins

The treasure is found within

The broken hearts that are soaked with fear.



Fill the glass to the brim

And it will spill out.

And keep on sharpening the knife,

And it will, it will be so blunt.



So how can we find ourselves

Trapped in our own private hells

Where we just scream but no one can hear

'X' marks the spot where the dig begins

The treasure is found within

The broken hearts that are soaked with fear.



To be at one with all your life



So how can we find ourselves

Trapped in our own private hells

Where we just scream but no one can hear



So how can we find ourselves (So be)

Trapped in our own private hells (at one)

Where we just scream but no one can hear (with all your life)

'X' marks the spot where the dig begins (And do)

The treasure is found within (without)

The broken hearts that are soaked with fear (doing a thing)



Don't try too hard to understand

Or you'll miss the, miss the point at hand.

FATTER THAN ALBERT LYRICS

"Erin's Runaway Imagination"

I can't see a peaceful face for miles,

all my friends are gone,

and I think I'm ready to go home.

I can't see a peaceful face for miles,

all my friends are gone,

and I think I'm ready to go home.

Fuck all of you assholes,

Fuck ska, and fuck this band,

trapped inside a seven man cell,

shackled at my feet and hands.



How can you speak of a light,

when there's not even a tunnel in sight?

How can you speak of a light,

when there's not even a tunnel in sight?



Just one more time and I'll quit!

ALL LEFT OUT LYRICS

"Anything"

So this is what they meant when they said it wouldn't easy.

There's something on my mind and I'm trying to find the meaning.

We'll see how far I get when I'm making my own decisions.

It started as a dream make reality my ambition.



I have never seen anything quite like it.

I have never been any place quite like this.



So far I must admit it's more than I anticipated.

How long until we get there?

To rise above the rest and reach a point where we can say it.

Not content with staying here.

There's opportunity to be taken if we can make it.



I have never seen anything quite like it.

I have never been any place quite like this. [x2]



I have never seen anything

I have never seen anything

I have never seen anything quite like this in my entire life.

DIVIDED BY FRIDAY LYRICS - Nothing Like Today

DIVIDED BY FRIDAY LYRICS

"Nothing Like Today"

Can you tell me which part of me,

Is the part that makes myself believe

It's fine to lie

Without a valid reason as to why

The sky seems so dark and empty when

Everyone around me is

Astounded by it's beauty



Perhaps, the problem's me



Take me back to when I had it all

Before I let my feelings fall

'Cause lately I've been hating who I am

I took for granted what I had

And watched it wash away

But tonight, I'll let it out

Tonight, will be nothing like today



Can you tell me which part will be

The part that makes me see

That all along

I was so wrong for overlooking

All the beauty of the things surrounding

All the things around me

I wish that I

Would have saved my self the time

'Cause I'm not getting any younger

And the Days are flying by



Take me back to when I had it all

Before I let my feelings fall

'Cause lately I've been hating who I am

I took for granted what I had

And watched it wash away

But tonight, I'll let it out

Tonight, will be nothing like..



Today was disaster and I have myself to blame

I admit there's no excuse or explanation for the person I became

But my flaws and my fears took me far from who I thought that I would be



I wanna go back to when I had it all

Before I let everything fall

From my hands



Take me back to when I had it all

Before I left my feelings fall

'Cause lately I've been hating who I am

I took for granted what I had

And watched it wash away

But tonight, I'll let it out

Tonight, will be nothing like today

NUMBER ONE GUN LYRICS

"The People"

People count on "nothing isn't worth it"

Enslave your bodies for money to buy freedom



The people are angry with you and each other

I will remember when you said you'd save me



You disappoint your fathers and your mothers

With your faith not lasting I wonder what you'll wonder

And soon you'll sing badabadabadada

And soon you'll sing badabadabadada



The people are angry with you and each other

But I will remember when you said you'd save me

Badabadabadada



The people are angry with you and each other

50 LIONS LYRICS - Love And War

50 LIONS LYRICS

"Love And War"

Under the watching eyes of a world

That doesn't sleep but doesn't see

We're dragged into a situation where

They take away our right to freedom,

Justice and liberty

Invade our lives, invade our homes.

There's nothing left that you shouldn't know.

Broadcast your fear, build up your walls,

Hidden agendas that no one knows,

The paranoia is taking control

All's fair in love and war.

Love and war.



Behind every distraction

A set up lies key to a greater scheme.

The only real promise here

Is a promise of uncertainty.

Faced with a conflict that sees no end

Finding comfort and safety in the arms

Of snakes and liars

I've never felt as uneasy as I do right now.



This is the price of insecurity.

Who on earth would've thought it would come to this,

Broken and defeated on a sinking ship.

So if this is the cost and we're left with the bill.

The highest price to pay for a sterile life.

The highest price to pay for a sterile world

All's fair in love and war.

Love and war.

THE CRAMPS LYRICS - Mojo Man From Mars

THE CRAMPS LYRICS

"Mojo Man From Mars"

There's a brand new dance in town

I'm shook up, I can't sit down

It's too early for the bars

And I done wrecked both the cars

Itchy and psyched by the orgy witch

It's the mojo man from Mars



Doin' the hootchie cootchie coo

In my peek-a-boo mohair suit

Oldsmo-William in a Jaguar

Smokin' exploding-type cigars

Cinnamon cinders, smouldering looks

Oh the mojo man from Mars



Yeah the dancehall fire's a shame

And the cops say I'm to blame

I got portsickles and caviar

But I don't know where you are

Still mashin' potatoes

At the peppermint lounge

It's the mojo man from Mars



Spotlight on one lone star

Weird shadows real bizarre

Big boy Pete's in Belshazzar

Mustang Sally's stuffed in jars

And there's no one who

Can hold a candle to

The mojo man from Mars
