1. The Fun Palace
Welcome, I invite you off to the other world
You'll have to face this house of no escape
Confront the past, in this psychic house of horrors
I lead you up the path you'll take
Chorus:
Panic, your conscience lied
Trapped inside
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the fun palace
Panic, just try to scream
It's only a dream
Panic, your ultimate nightmare
Welcome to the palace
Tonight you'll be tried, I invoke the memories
The guilt to be driven from this unconscious mind
Young lives that you've denied, behold their faces
Innocence cut to pieces just look around
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Look at the fun and games that you've taken away
Confess!
Dreams of growing up have been destroyed
Because of you!
Farewell, I impel you back to your other world
You'll have to face your every sin
Take this a painful bounty, representing me
The keeper of the palace and the secrets held within
Repeat Chorus
Goodbye, from the fun palace
2. Road to Ruin
No control tonight, the lights are going dim
The floor begins to tilt, it's blurring to a spin
Just let me find my keys, "look down below"
Fresh air is all I need, then I'll go
Chorus:
Leading up the road to ruin
You're full of alcoholic speed
Leading up the road to ruin
No last chance, don't bother to plead
High, over the limit, got to take it slow
Concentrate, kill the radio
It's not the first time, it'll be the last
I've said that before, in the past
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Speed, I've got to make it home
Not too far to go, you're getting near
Just down the block, there's nothing left to fear
Carefree, on top of the world, feeling power
Impaired security at ninety miles an hour
Repeat Chorus
Out
3. Sixes and Sevens
Disillusioned, self-confustion
Trying to make it through another day
What's it all for, when does it end
There must be another way
Woven webs of intricacy
A life of nothing new
No one here to understand
Pressure's crushing you
Sixes and sevens
Disorder battles control
Sixes and sevens
Crisis overflow
Aggravation, deep frustration
I know what I want to do
Motivation is a problem
When it's driven out of you
Emotion, commontion's
Filling up the brain
Direction's null and void
Another drink dilutes the pain
Sixes and sevens
Disorder battles control
Sixes and sevens
Crisis overflow
Sinking fast
Will it last
At sixes and sevens
Pulling through from yesterday
Another day is done
Determination
Self confidence has won
Woven webs of intricacy
Life is full of stress
That can only hinder
New desire to progress
Sixes and sevens
Disorder battles control
Sixes and sevens
Crisis overflow
Sinking fast
Will it last
At sixes and sevens
4. Stonewall
Chorus:
Stonewall - go to bat
Unless you want to live like that
Stonewall - can't we see
We're our own worst enemy
A land said to have all, wealth in land, in man
Qualities soon to exhaust as man's greed poisons the land
Streams, once fresh, were centers of life for so many a creature
Beauty without a defense, polluted, never to replenish
Repeat Chorus
Collage, blue and green, seen as golden industrial sites
Smudge as toxic pollutants destroy her remaining rights
The power of corporations, spewing chemicals into the air
Fines are imposed to discourage, but what's a dime to a millionaire
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
It's time to listen, and see the signs
It's time to listen, and hear her cries
The one that gave us life is being burned to the raw
Reaping unprotected riches, human nature's self-destructing flaw
The power of corporations, spewing chemicals into the air
Fines are imposed to discourage, but what's a dime to a millionaire
Repeat Chorus
5. Never Neverland
My room is full of toys and things
But filled with nothing new
Just me and Clare alone in this
Enchanted, placid room
It's Saturday and no more school
There hasn't been for years
She says we're here forever
'Til eternity
Our solitude has been disturbed
Clare hold on, don't flee
With open arms they call my name
"Oh won't you come with me?"
GET BACK, BACK!
JUST LEAVE US ALL ALONE
TAKE THAT AND THAT!
I'LL BREAK EVERY BONE
GET BACK, BACK!
JUST LEAVE US ALL ALONE
TAKE THAT AND THAT!
I'LL BREAK EVERY BONE
BLACKING OUT, POISONED
COLORS NOW DECAY
DRIFTING OFF TO NEVER, NEVERLAND
PLEASE DON'T TAKE ME AWAY
TO NEVER, NEVERLAND
NO, TO THE NEVERLAND!
Time has passed and now I see
What I've lived through
I've got no fears that match the hate
That came from you
It's Saturday I've things to do
I wish you all the best
Now I leave your placid room
Enjoy eternal rest
6. Imperiled Eyes
Centuries of war and waste
Have dealt a mortal blow
Mother Earth begins to rot
Humanity on death row
Life does slowly cease to be
Death seems so surreal
As Earth becomes a vacant lot
There's nothing left to heal
Chorus:
No color in the skies
No one left to blame
And we thought we were wise
As I fade, I feel revived
Shocked back into life
Opening imperiled eyes
Imperiled eyes
Cessation of physical life
Blackness rains from above
What right did power have
To annihilate the Earth I loved
Now a barren wasteland
The die is cast
A planet that once did teem with life
No evidence of a past
Repeat Chorus
Centuries of war and waste
Have dealt a mortal blow
Mother Earth is now no more
There's nothing left to heal
Repeat Chorus
7. Kraf Dinner
Cupboard's bare, I'm so hungry
Life ain't fair, gimme some money
Macaroni maniac, a cheddar cheese heart attack
Chorus:
I love, I love, I love, I love:
KRAF DINNER
Boiling water, I can't wait
It's getting hotter, it feels so great
Macaroni maniac, a cheddar cheese heart attack
Repeat Chorus
Well that was fun, but now I'm all done
Now sedate, I think I'll buy a crate
Macaroni maniac, a cheddar cheese heart attack
Repeat Chorus
Kraf Dinner
Dinner
Kraf Dinner
My Dinner
I want it now
8. Phantasmagoria
I have chosen you my friend, you're mine
Locked inside this frightening dream
Nowhere to hide
Every night my demons you will see
An apparition festival, through hell you'll ride
Chorus:
Phantasmagoria
Sleep well
Phantasmagoria
In hell
Someone is here calling out your name
Look out, I play inside your brain
Fleeing from my shadows, you'll never pass my test
Don't you know that ghosts never rest
Repeat Chorus
Approaching, you writhe, we take control
Unholy inquisition, sentence very cold
My servants, demons, take you down the hole
Your mind destroyed, now I want your soul
Repeat Chorus
Phantasmagoria
Phantasmagoria
In Hell!
9. Reduced to Ash
The sky is falling, timbers they rush down
all is in rubble, vomiting sounds
Screams in the night, yellow and orange
Blackened indent, future deformed
The Earth it doth shake, molested and torn
All living aborted, none left but unborn
Contrived devastation, see all is ruined
Bodies, now corpses, bent, broken, and strewn
Reduced to ash
Reduced to ash
Self-contained enemy, we've sealed the dawn
By torching the sun with the dragons we have spawned
Farewell to all, it's time to leave
Chaotic waste, too much to grieve
Reduced to ash
Reduced to ash
Reduced
Reduced to ash
10. I Am in Command
No defense, enemy attack
I'm fighting for my life
They'll slice you to ribbons, you lose all inhibitions
I laugh at the anti-christ
Power of position, deploying ammunition
I'm free from your holy beliefs
Your pockets are bled, to Christ you're wed
Gaze at the lost sheep
Chorus:
I am in command
I am in command
I stand in command
All the taking, eyes are waking
To your mass control
Power fades, drunken ways
Creating your own hellhole
Your God cast out, my armaments shout
Your faith is soon null and void
Where's God, paid the church of fraud
Now heaven's left you unemployed
Repeat Chorus
Moans of the meek, I'm strong, they're weak
I triumph as never before
Stand beside, be strong, take pride
Truth comes from the core
My war is fought by those I have taught
And those pledged to be free
I am here in alliance and stand in defiance
Of the church's almighty greed
Repeat Chorus
