"Biomechanical" (1993 EP)
1. Walk (album version) 2. No Good (Attack the Radical) 3. Fucking Hostile (Biomechanical mix) 4. By Demons Be Driven (Biomechanical mix)
1. Walk (album version)
Can't you see I'm easily bothered by persistence
One step from lashing out at you...
You want in to get under my skin
And call yourself a friend
I've got more friends like you What do I do?
(Pre) Is there no standard anymore?
What it takes, who I am, where I've been
Belong
You can't be something you're not
Be yourself, by yourself
Stay away from me
A lesson learned in life Known from the dawn of time
(Chorus) Respect, walk
Run your mouth when I'm not around It's easy to achieve
You cry to weak friends that sympathize
Can you hear the violins playing you song?
Those same friends tell me your every word
(Pre)
(Chorus)
Are you talking to me? No way punk
2. No Good (Attack the Radical)
In the states there's a problem with race
Because of ignorant past burned fires
From evolution we've been killing each other
I figure man should have it down to a science
No chance not for a minute
Not for a second I won't be defensive
I'm straight out in my opinion
You'd better listen to a man who knows what he is saying
I've seen your side
You run and hide for the mere fact that you feel inferior
Be superior And know your interior
(Pre) Race, pride, prejudice Black man, white man
No stand Live in the past
We make it last A hated mass
No solution Mind pollution For revolution
(Chorus) So low behold my eyes
This land of fools will rise
No good For no one
You blame oppression and play the role of criminals
To rape and burn show progress is minimal
White hoods and militants you know it's such a pity
Living, breathing Violence in your city
If one man Had one home In one world
Held live alone without variety
Full of anxiety No one to point at, question Or even talk to
in his private grave
No matter what color
He wouldn't be saved from hell
He dwells
A closed mind playing the part of prison cells
(Pre)
(Chorus)
3. Fucking Hostile (Biomechanical mix)
Almost every day I see the same face
On broken picture tube It fits the attitude
If you could see yourself
You put you on a shelf
Your verbal masturbate
Promise to nauseate
Today I'll play the part of non-parent
Not make a hundred rules
For you to know about yourself
Not lie and make you believe
What's evil is making love and making friends and meeting God you're own way
The right way
(Chorus) To see To bleed Cannot be taught
In turn You're making us Fucking hostile
We stand alone
The truth in right and wrong
The boundaries of the law
You seem to miss the point
Arresting for a joint?
You seem to wonder why
Hundreds of people die
You're writing tickets man
My mom got jumped -- they ran!
Now I'll play a public servant
To serve and protect
By the law and the state
I'd bust the punks that rape steal and murder
And leave you be If you crossed me
I'd shake your hand like a man not a god
(Chorus)
Come meet your maker, boy
Some things you can't enjoy
Because of heaven/hell a fucking wives' tale
They put it in your head
Then put you in your bed
He's watching say your prayers
Cause God is everywhere
Now I'll play a man learning priesthood
Who's about to take the ultimate test in life
I'd question things because I am human
And call NO ONE my father who's no closer that a stranger
I won't listen
(Chorus)
4. By Demons Be Driven (Biomechanical mix)
Serving the faith
Abduction the oath
It lie in wait for the offering
Religion is old
For drawing the young
Purity withers and dies
Never return to the ones that provided
Children draining parents of will
I hold out my hand to bloodless child
I'm taken by the one I was saving
From death
(Chorus) By demons be driven Beckon the call
With decline in mind
End not far
We're left hanging alone here
He pulls us from nails
Shatters our bones
Leaving us crippled and strewn
Boiling my corpse in the blood of his children
Praying for his god to prevail
Burying us with loved ones
To sleep with shelled children
....of the sixth dimension
(Chorus)
