1. Extinction
L.A. gangs violence in mobs
Crime on the streets three times been robbed
Organizations bombs everywhere
Big corporations destroying the air
Violence out in the street
Corruption in front of my face
Pollution out of control
The human race extinction
Nuclear weapons no limitation
Virus of AIDS no vaccination
Three mile island a blown reactor
Chernobyl power plant man made disaster
Violence out in the street
Corruption in front of my face
Pollution out of control
The human race extinction
Ozone layer eroding fast
Water of oil forests won't last
Destroy the planet better think twice
With nature you pay the price
Violence out in the street
Corruption in front of my face
Pollution out of control
The human race extinction
Violence out in the street
Corruption in front of my face
Pollution out of control
The human race extinction
2. Natas
Some people never change they have themselves
To blame can't see the writing on the walls
Thy kingdome come thy will be done into hell
They're gonna fall
NATAS
NATAS
NATAS
NATAS
You must be blind take a look around you
Sins all you'll find world full of greed
Is there a heaven is there a hell
Is there a God where does he dwell
Does he need money evangelistic deeds
Where goes the profit the pocket of greed
NATAS
NATAS
NATAS
NATAS
You must be blind take a look around you
Sins all you'll find world full of greed
You must be blind take a look around you
Sins all you'll find world full of greed
3. In the Red
My refrigerator's empty my car is out of gas
Got nothing in my savings got taxes up the ass
Work sun to sun all day sometimes even more
For very little pay a fact I can't Ignore
In the red
In the red
In the red
In the red
Bills are overdue charging this and that
Need a pair of shoes tire's got a flat
On the phone to china at least ten times a day
The check is in the mail my hair is turning grey
In the red
In the red
In the red
In the red
Need the music loud need the music fast
Need the music heavy top forty I will pass
Don't like Cinderella White Lion Bon Jovi
Don't ever wanna sell out to conformity
4. Buried Alive
Sun is going down will soon be getting dark
The spirits will be rising mischief throughout the park
Buried alive
Buried alive
Running through the graveyard no time to retreat
Got you by the throat knock you down to your feet
Buried alive
Buried alive
Six feet under you're losing your breath
Suffocation an agonizing death
Will he come up to get you will he dig you out
Open up the curtain oh my god
Buried alive
Buried alive
5. N.A.S.A.
Touch and go situation universal dream
Major malfunction witness by a million eyes
Faulty apparatus split apart at the seams
Massive explosion engulfing seven lives
N.A.S.A.
N.A.S.A.
A nation in anguish a country in despair
Empathy for loved ones and those who lost their lives
Voluntary sorrow within a breath of air
Suicidal countdown not one of them survived
N.A.S.A.
N.A.S.A.
N.A.S.A.
N.A.S.A.
Krista McAuliffe life ending tragically
Teaching little minds you will no more
Famous for a moment Life and Time magazine
Short time later it'll all be ignored
N.A.S.A.
N.A.S.A.
N.A.S.A.
N.A.S.A.
6. Mind Over Matter
Optimistic self expectant faith hope enthusiasm
Incentive praise self direction opportunity knocks you take control
Enjoy the view you climb the mountain rich or poor you can do it
Mind over matter
Think positive
Mind over matter
It's fight or flight
Pessimistic fears and worries mental depression
No motivation tunnel vision build anxiety
Health irritation workman's compensation
Mind over matter
Think positive
Mind over matter
It's fight or flight
Sea of tranquil pale and lifeless coral polyps
Inside reef subject to surge of tide and power
Bright and vibrant and full of life
Mind over matter
Think positive
Mind over matter
It's fight or die
7. Flight 103
Up in the sky another routine flight
JFK New York bound
Landing in London a minor stop
To refuel and check while on ground
The phone call a nightmare to those who observe
But to them it would be their own fate
A crew with a choice passengers with no voice
And for them it's all and all too late
Flight 103
Flight 103
A tragedy to end all but to immediate families
A nightmare of horror and pain
Bodies sent back in boxes of pine
Some of them with the wrong name
Who is responsible who'd do such a thing
Another political war
High explosives in a plastic container
A warning they chose to ignore
Flight 103
Flight 103
Flight 103
8. Moby Dick part.2
Drum Solo
9. Turn to Stone
Tell me what's happening I haven't a clue
My life is a nightmare but what can I do
I come off the road all I need is some time
Some time to work some time to play
Some time to just get away
I don't mean to sound mad but times like these are bad
I'll turn to stone
A life alone
I'll turn to stone
You're after my money you're after my time
I'm losing my patience so don't even try
You know me, you say your my friend
There will come a time you won't see me again
10. Samantha
I think about you babe at times when I'm alone
I think about you babe is it time yet to come home
But I can't stop this pain that's locked in my heart
The feeling is strong when we're miles apart
One thing that's hard for me to see
Samantha my love why aren't you next to me
I dream about you babe when I'm waiting for your call
I dream about you babe when I hear the raindrops fall
My life was empty till I met you and please
Understand I'll always be there for you on thing thats hard for me to see
Samantha my love why aren't you next to me
