1. B.N.O.T.S. "Black Night Of The Soul"
Closing in on forty
Ain't got a pot to piss in
Getting wrinkles on my face
My hair's getting thin
Now I'm overworked, underpaid
Having trouble getting laid,
Restless, irritated, getting aggravated, got a
Black night in my soul!
And I'm doing time in this jail cell
of a living hell
Live in a run-down house
In the bad part of town,
Swimming in debt
My credit rating is going down,
Now I'm unemployed, under-joyed
Yeah I'm completely annoyed,
I'm jaded, the light of my life
has slowly faded, got a
Black Night in my soul!
And I remember regret but the rest
I just seem to forget
A rat's rage in this cage
Is the doom of old age,
Should I laugh, should I cry
Get drunk or get high?
There's nothing left here
There's nothing more left to fear,
So I don't care anymore
Show me to the other side
of death's door!
Everybody's done forgot me
No one cares anymore,
Aches and pains everywhere
My back is getting sore,
Now, it's a shame, who's to blame
For going deaf and going lame?
I've thrown the toss, time to count the cost,
got a
Black night in my soul!
And I'm halfway to six feet under
In a cold wet hole
Feels like my life will soon expire
Go ahead and throw me on my
Funeral Pyre, RIGHT NOW!
2. Power Trip
My condition is such that I
Need to have your complete permission,
The anticipation, I've got to have
your willing participation,
I've got that hunger and I can't
Hold it back any longer,
I am an iron fist in a velvet glove
Even-handed when the pushing comes to shove
When it gets thick I will rise above
To be that iron fist inside a velvet glove
Art of seduction, can't be pinned down
By a scientific deduction,
Make no exceptions, all must fall
In with my general direction,
No compromising, all-engrossed
And engaged in your hypnotizing
I am that iron fist inside a velvet glove,
Even-handed when the pushing comes to shove,
When it gets thick, I will rise above
To be that iron fist in a velvet glove
You know you can't resist,
Give in to me, I insist
It's tearing me asunder
The urge is as such that it seems
to pull me under
The Frey-Fire's flying,
In a blaze, senses rage
Convention defying
I am an iron fist in a velvet glove!
3. High Maintenance
It's not about you, no, it's all about
What you've got,
It doesn't really matter just as long
As you've got a lot,
A ding-bat, spoiled brat
Who wants a free ride,
Diet pills, silicone and
Peroxide
You're so high maintenance
You know size matters when it
Comes to the size of you're wallet,
Another high-class welfare scam
That's what you could call it,
A big house, credit cards
A Mercedes-Benz,
A Lilly-white cover for your
Black, secret sins,
You're so high maintenance
A superficial heart
Is bound to take you far,
When it's given to a man
Who drives a luxury sports car,
Your appetite for finer things
Just keeps getting bigger,
Disguised as a hot-looking blond
You're just a cold-blooded gold-digger,
And you're high maintenance
Latches on to her prey with
Such seductive skill,
Armed with pristine charm
And looks that could kill,
A make-up, cover girl
A video vamp,
A high-priced, elitist bitch
A two-bit tramp
You're so high maintenance
4. Impunity
The things I could do to you
If I had the mind,
The things I could do
If I could only find the time,
The things I could do
I don't need a reason,
The things I could do to you
Are always in season,
All the things I could do
All I could do to you!
The things I could do to you
Feel the hunger grow,
The things I could do
How bad does it show?
The things I could do
Feel my temperature rise
The things I could do to you
The inferno blazing in my eyes,
All the things I could do
All I could do to you!
The things I could do to you
Obsession sublime,
The things I could do
Etched in the Stones of Time,
The things I could do
If I only had immunity,
The things I could do to you
With Impunity!
All the things I could do
All I could do to you!
Got you tied down
Submitted to my will,
Get you turned around
Till I'm able to get my fill,
Hell yeah!
You ain't got a voice
You ain't got a choice,
Compliance is what I crave
So you better behave,
This is the end
This is all I've got to say,
Now over you must bend
Because you know that it's
Your turn to pay!!
5. Libation
Raise your glass high
Make a toast,
Drink long and drink deep
And make a boast,
Mead, beer, wassail, or wine
It all sounds so good and
so fine,
Raise the ale-horn all of you here,
Sing loud and praise the Gods of Beer,
Good drink forever, keeps me together,
Helps to ease the pain, keeps me from going
Insane, Insane! Libation!
Water, malt, hops and yeast
Fermentation,
This will unleash my beast
The ale-libation,
Stamp out the vintage
And make us some wine,
We'll drink it all in good time
Raise the ale-horn all of you here
Sing loud and praise those Gods of Beer
Good drink forever, keeps me together
Helps to ease the pain, keeps me from going
Insane, Insane! Libation!
6. Instinct "Run With The Wolves"
Mechanized society has got us
In its clutch,
It's bleeding us dry, you know
It's just too much,
Another way for the Man
To keep us all down,
Spinning us around, then
Grinding us in the ground,
You know you'd think in time
We'd learn our lessons well,
And learn to escape our over-mechanized
Over-civilized, over-sterilized living jail cell,
Then do what I want to do, and that is,
Run with the wolves at midnight
Do the runic dance by the firelight
See what lies beyond my sight
With all my main and might I'm gonna
Heed the call of the wild
Out in the wild things are
Much more alive,
It takes everything you've got
Just to survive,
It will put your wits to the
Ultimate test,
Nature's way of bringing out
Your best,
Can you fell your veins course
With a new life,
Far away from all the worldly greed
And the day to day corporate strife?
I know you can, then you'll do what I want to do
And run with the wolves at midnight
Do the runic dance by the firelight
See what lies beyond my sight
With all my main and might I'm gonna
Heed the call of the wild
Just get away for a couple of days,
And lose yourself in the wooded haze,
Far, far away from the urban craze
Won't you relax yourselves, free your mind
And set your soul ablaze!?!
And run, run, run with the wolves!
Got to get away from
Mechanized society,
Round up the hounds and
Find a brand-new way,
Put me in a deer stand
Just let me get away,
Stick me in the wild
That's just where I'll stay,
And I'll be
Running with the wolves at midnight
Doing the runic dance by the firelight
See what lies beyond my sight
With all my main and might I'm gonna
Heed the call of the wild!
Let's run!
7. Obsession
Well, it's constantly on my mind
I think about it all the time
It permeates the very essence of
My entire conscious thoughts,
It's a constant succession
Of a growing obsession
A longing desire to call it my possession
Regardless of the cost,
It's my object of desire
It's the towering inferno that's
Setting my soul on fire!
It's my object of desire
It's the towering inferno that's
Heating up my funeral pyre!
For this thing I adore
I'm becoming a whore
I'm selling pieces of myself
But there's not much left here to
Deal with, no,
So I'm selling my soul?
Yes, I'm selling my soul!
I've mortgaged my spirit, now
I've got to beg, borrow, and steal!
It's my object of desire
It's the towering inferno that's
Setting my soul on fire!
It's my object of desire
It's the towering inferno
That's heating up my funeral pyre!
Submission
I've just got this to say,
I'm gonna turn and walk away,
No new fortunes here,
Just more misery I fear,
Can't learn to stand up tall
When you're beaten to the ground,
Can't learn to rise above it all
When it's you that's sinking down,
And you're beaten to submission
I've got a four-year headache,
And a seven year itch,
It's hard to meet ends make,
I wish I was filthy rich,
Can't learn to be strong when resolve is inconsistent,
My will to live in hope is meeting with resistance,
And I'm beaten to submission
Can't learn to get beyond my problem's essence,
My sanity's eloped with planned obsolescence,
Can't bring myself to cope enough to make
A difference,
I guess I'm trapped here after all!
Beaten to submission!
8. Submission
I've just got this to say,
I'm gonna turn and walk away,
No new fortunes here,
Just more misery I fear,
Can't learn to stand up tall
When you're beaten to the ground,
Can't learn to rise above it all
When it's you that's sinking down,
And you're beaten to submission
I've got a four-year headache,
And a seven year itch,
It's hard to meet ends make,
I wish I was filthy rich,
Can't learn to be strong when resolve is inconsistent,
My will to live in hope is meeting with resistance,
And I'm beaten to submission
Can't learn to get beyond my problem's essence,
My sanity's eloped with planned obsolescence,
Can't bring myself to cope enough to make
A difference,
I guess I'm trapped here after all!
Beaten to submission!
9. Untamed Beast
Let me exercise my charms and get you in my arms
And then I'll show you a thing or two,
I'll whisper it in your ear, I'll even make it loud and clear,
All the things that I'd like to do,
'Cause I'm a heat-seeking thriller
A cold-hearted killer with red blood running ice-blue,
An untamed beast looking to make a feast
Out of you!
The thought of tasting your skin invites me on in
Only wetting my appetite,
I'm gonna mesmerize you feast for the eyes
Until I've taken my very last bite,
'Cause I'm a heat-seeking thriller
A cold-hearted killer with red blood running ice-blue,
An untamed beast looking to make a feast
Out of you!
It's your heart I would steal, o' please let me cop a feel
And drink your sweet lovin' life's juice,
And learn to compromise to this incubus wisened
Killer wolf on the loose,
Put your head on my shoulder feel desire smoulder
With utmost certainty,
And put away your horror, surrender to this sorcerer
Embrace your eternity,
'Cause I'm a heat-seeking thriller
A cold-hearted killer with red blood running ice-blue,
An untamed beast looking to make a feast
Out of you!
No need for alarm, your will will be disarmed
Within the very hour,
My blood runs cold so just do as you're told and
Give in to my power,
'Cause I'm a heat-seeking thriller
A cold-hearted killer with red blood running ice blue,
An untamed beast looking to make a feast
Out of you!
10. Arise
