1. The Getaway
Bring the boys back
They're under attack
Pack up your stuff
before you get smacked
The maps are folded
The truck's are loaded
The spirit of the troops
by the heat remolded
the plan was simple
and time was crucial
who knows now if
it's still essential?
a sort of revenge
gone out of hand
black gold is worth
a few dead men
find the getaway
time to get away
find the getaway
finally get away
bring the kids home
since they're on hold
the sky above their head
is filled with black smoke
no more to prove
their minds get loose
becoming targets
a mirage confused
the world is watching
the moves you're making
and every action
might be mistaken
no one's a winner
but you ain't losers
as we fill our tanks
you're damn good soldiers
find the getaway
time to get away
find the getaway
finally get away
away from here
the battlefields of gods
the wasteland of titans
where everything's destroyed
only speculations
who speaks for you
as they make their millions
I speak for you
Wait for orders!
Please stand by!
let's call it even
even now, even now
before it's too late
2. Dognation
here they come
with their guns
march parade
under the sun
here they come
helmets on
stoic faces
the stand has begun
fear is growing with the hours
intensified by the fever
curfews
dead town
black out
paranoia
with an axe
special tool
busting in
breaking rules
just like dogs
hooked on drugs
blind searching
for marginality
it uses all kind of power
a message is blowing
through the speakers
curfews
strip search
black out
paranoia
propaganda
i put my hands
in the white sand
here used to be
paradise island
vacation goes in order
terrorized villagers
supervised foreigners
covered up massacres
so much of a nonsense
better hide
the evidence
so much of a disgrace
better leave
without a trace
all includes all
3. Mr. Clean
I just witnessed
Another club eviction
I wonder what he did
To get this lesson
Just like that crazy singer
Yeah what's his name?
Anyway,
Who will be the next one
To get thrown out?
Just like a garbage bag
Go join your friends
It is time to conform
with conformity
Plastic holds, robot souls
Last call for the rascals
Mr. Clean says
Last call for the rascals
The good old days expired
New kind of people
Prototype generation
All inspected
Shiny chromes, spirit sold
Last call for the rascals
Mr. Clean says
Last call for the rascals
Mr. Clean kills germs
Removall
The homeless out! The poor out!
The punks out!
The colored out! The striped out!
The stains out!
The troubled out! The wilds out!
The wrongs out!
The problems out! The bugs out!
The bands out!
Wipe them out...Wipe them out
The leathers out! The queens out!
The freaks out!
The misfits out! The loud out!
The fly out!
The ugly out! The olds out!
The smalls out!
The bums out! The bad out!
And me out!
And you and you and you all pure?
Nice and clean society
Long live democracy
4. After All
Joey died
And nothing has changed
The streets corners
are still the same
I guess he still
lives in my head
When it's time
To share the bread
Still got holes
On my knees
But I won't
Buy the figurine
Yeah it's kind off
sad to see
you in a box
wrapped and sealed
Who cares after all?
About the rise
and the fall
Makes the papers for one day
Not for what you had to say
Who cares after all?
Another flyer
on the wall
All the names have been washed out
All the ones we care about
Seen it, been there, done that!!
When I am mad
When I see red
I refer to
what Iggy says
I want to find
myself in you
You wanna find
yourself too
Who cares after all?
Win the race
or drop the ball
If I make a silly face
Is it really what it takes?
Who cares after all?
About the records
on the wall
And the tattoos on your skin
Be the one you've never been
Yeah
Seen it, been there, done that!!
5. Odds & Frauds
Odds and frauds
From people above
All suspicions
No suspensions
These bastards
Always have too much power
They're all swindlers
And they work together
Shaking hands
And smile on TV
And not even ashamed
I'm talking millions
Behind closed doors
The politicians
Always want more
Odds and frauds
The people's applause
Puzzles of lies
Monopolize
That's why the food for oil
Won't succeed
The third world countries
Will stay in need
As we watch
The kids die on TV
But no one will complain
I'm talking millions
Behind closed doors
The politicians
Always want more
Odds and frauds
And not even ashamed
Odds and frauds
Made with gloves
Organized crimes
Came into line
Your vote is for those
Who take your money
Your money is for those
Who take your money
Your money is for those
Who make great party
Making cheers
And smile for TV
And not even ashamed
Odds and frauds
Odds and frauds
Odds and frauds
6. Red My Mind
Violence overdose
Broadcast coast to coast
Blood drools on the screen
Dare to watch that scene
Carcasses showcase
Sitcom of depraved
Win & gun sweepstake
And I hope I can find
An image or a sign
The reasons why I'm blind
Don't you just red my mind
So I hope I can find
The know-how and the time
To read between the lines
Red my mind, red my mind
In ware zone at school
Learning to be cruel
Then on the way home
Face what scares the most
Rival gang members
Junkies and dealers
Hookers and killers
Mom, dad and sisters
The only way
It's sad to say
To stay alive
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Yeah I grew up
With all that stuff
There is a toy
I still want to enjoy
It has to stop
I have enough
I'm gonna try this
Around the block
I'm gonna try this
Triple life sentence
Triple death nonsense
I used to be good
Now I'm bad for good
For good
7. Silly Clones
Go back to main menu
Pick up the icon
Made for you
Which one
Will look the best?
The transformation
Is in process
Made out of vanity
Everything
To reach eternity
100 percent restored
Biologic generator
In tubes
The liquid flows
The plasma
Feeds you by a hose
It's one new you indeed
But the results
Aren't guaranteed
In the valley
Of silly clones
Rebuilt people
To the bone
In the valley
Of silly clones
Where the people
Turn to stone
In the valley
Of silly clones
People made of
Styrofoam
In the valley
Of silly clones
Where the people
Die alone
8. No Angel
I'm trying to escape
But each time I failed
I'm searching the key
The opportunity
The storms over the years
Of screams in my ears
The dust in my eyes
And the violent gusts of lies
My chain is not so long
My dignity is gone
I'm crawling in the mud
Just to get my grub
My heart is locked
In a cage
This treatment
Is not sane
You handcuff
Your loving, your loving
Is a crime
You're no angel
My mind
Is behind bars
The future
Seems to dark
I can see
Your demon's horn
As you stick out
Your reptile tongue
I've got hallucinations
Your loving is a crime
You're no angel
Nah, nah, nah
Free
9. The X-Stream
There is the need for speed
Everything that exceeds
The point of no return
And this one's gonna hurt
All set before your eyes
A human sacrifice
It's time to clear the ramp
Who wants to take a chance
So let's roll
All night long
I like the smell of fuel
I got myself a bruise
The only time it's real
It's when I shift the gears
A few in every town
The death defying clowns
Gather with all their rigs
And kids are burning wheels
Yeah let's roll
All night long
Always pushing it to the X-Stream
Metal
One game to entertain
The gain is the pain
You might crash in flames
Or jump off the planes
The pavement's made of stones
In parts with broken bones
But you ain't out of luck
You live around the clock
Yeah let's roll
All night long
Always pushing it to the X-Stream
Metal
1001...1002...1003...Open
Another world record
And this one missed the curve
What's gonna make me stop
Who's gonna take my guts
One split second and go
One tire had to blow
C'mon and give me five
I died of what I liked
So let's roll
All night long
Always pushing it to the X-Stream
Metal
1001...1002...1003...Open
10. Polaroids
Hostile white
Blizzard's rage
Crystallized
Frosted face
The sore shoulders
The weight of days
How far to go
In desert snow
Where the wind takes our dreams
Where the scene is unreal
Across the iceland
Enduring fate
The hills of sickness
The cliff of fear
Months in darkness
The loss of time
Only a limelight
Flows in the sky
And every morning
Buried in place
Zombies awaking
And keep the pace
There is no crossroad
Nor choice to make
It's always further
Always ahead
Where the wind steals our dreams
Where yourself is revealed
Hey!
Turning in circles
Our worst nightmare
No more supplies
Nor food to share
All the strength
I've left behind
Would be useful
Now that I die
It doesn't matter
Not anymore
Only a limelight
Flows in the sky
Glows in the sky
Where the wind takes our dreams
Where the scene is surreal
Where the wind steals our dreams
Where yourself is revealed
Who wants to land
On no-man's land?
Who wants to end
On morgoth land?
