1. Revolution Is My Name
68' into the world born
And the Seventies, a breath after the war
Life was confusing because of my age
Should my eyes open for tomorrow’s gains?
I can't help the way I am
There's no trust and there's no end
What is my name?
(Chorus)
It will never change
So here it stays
Forever is my name
From now on, can't look the other way
Keep in mind and listen to what I say
Take under wing all the ones who are lost
Build up around them an infinite wall
Don't you know just who I am?
Take the hand of wisdom's friend
What is my name?
(Chorus)
It's time to change
It can't stay the same
Revolution is my name
It will never change
So here it stays
Forever is my name
What is my name? (x4)
Forever...
What is my name? (x4)
Revolution...
(2nd Chorus)
2. Cat Scratch Fever (Ted Nugent cover)
Well, I don't know where they come from, but they sure do come
I hope they're comin' for me
And I don't know how they do it, but they sure do it good
I hope they're doin' it for free
They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
Well, the first time that I got it I was just 10 years old
I got it from some kitty next door
I went to see the doctor and he gave me the cure
I think I got it some more
They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
I got it bad, scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
It's nothing dangerous, I feel no pain
I've got to change
You know you got it when you're goin' insane
It makes a grown man cry, cry
Oh, won't you make my bed?
Well, I make a pussy purr with the stroke of my hand
They know they're gettin' it from me
And they know just where to go when they need their lovin' man
They know I'm doin' it for free
I give 'em cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever
They got it bad, scratch fever
Cat scratch
3. Hollow
What's left inside him?
Don't he remember us?
Can't he believe me?
We seemed like bothers
Talked for hours last month
About what we wanna be
I sit now with his hand in mine
But I know he can't feel...
No one knows what's done is done
It's as if he were dead
I'm close with his mother
And she cries endlessly
Lord how we miss him
At least what's remembered
It's so important
To make best friends in life
But it's hard when my friend
Sits with blank expressions
No one knows what's done is done
It's as if he were dead
He as hollow as I alone now
He as hollow as I alone
A shell of my friend
Just flesh and bone
There's no soul He sees no love
I shake my fists at skies above
Mad at God
He as hollow as I converse
I wish he'd waken from this curse
Hear my words before it's through
I want to come in after you
My best friend
He as hollow as I alone
4. Planet Caravan (Black Sabbath cover)
We sail through endless skies
stars shine like eyes
the black night sighs
The moon in silver trees
falls down in tears
light of the night
The earth, a purple blaze
of sapphire haze
in orbit always
While down
below the trees
bathed in cool breeze
silver starlight breaks down the night
And so we pass on by the crimson eye
of great god Mars
as we travel the universe
5. Hole In The Sky (Black Sabbath cover)
I'm looking through a hole in the sky
I'm seeing nowhere through the eyes of a lie
I'm getting closer to the end of the line
I'm living easy where the sun doesn't shine
I'm living in a room without any view
I'm living free because the rent's never due
The synonyms of all the things that I've said
Are just the riddles that are built in my head
Hole in the sky, take me to heaven
Window in time, through it I fly
I've seen the stars disappear in the sun
The shooting's easy if you've got the right gun
And even though I'm sitting waiting for Mars
I don't believe there's any future in cars
Hole in the sky, take me to heaven
Window in time, through it I fly
Yeah
I've watched the dogs of war enjoying their feast
I've seen the western world go down in the east
The food of love became the greed of our time
But now I'm living on the profits of pride
6. Walk (Live 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
7. Fucking Hostile (Live Version)
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)
