THE KIDS AREN'T ALRIGHT
its about time
yeah
it's about time
your dirty little secrets
your dark pernicious lies
you stand behind your stories
you try to demonise
my brothers and my sisters
fighting for their rights
your privilege enables you
to cover up your crimes
and its about time
yeah
its about time
your royal blood
your generals
your politician's smile
your pay to play judiciary
affords not doing time
your media celebrities
your sycophantic bile
you glorify dehumanising
culture is reviled
and its about time
yeah
its about time
you call it research
down in dolphin square
better bury evidence
and missing dossiers
more cover ups
and whitewash
conspiracy alright
the truth is still a mystery
but the kids aren't alright
and its about time

MALDOROR
Fear frustration hate capitulation
when were alone
theres a part of me
wants to kill
the other half of me
i get a thrill
out of intimacy
and i wanna know
how you feel about me
cos I've lived too long
in the shadows of my dreams
I've been afraid
to express what i really mean
im not sshamed
this is the skin I'm in
you stay the same
but I'm changing
Fear frustration hate capitulation
life or death
more degradation
rivers of blood
cascading
cascading
hearts of darkness
where is the light?
i gotta follow you
like the day turns into night
embracing the darkness
flowers of evil inside your soul
this is my song
chants de maldoror
Fear frustration hate capitulation
life or death
more degradation
rivers of blood
cascading
cascading

PARIAH

PARIAH
I go to work
I got bills to pay
Some people sit around
Bitching all day
Don't try to moralise
And put me in my place
I ain't got no truck with that
Come say it to my face
You might not like some things I might have done
But I don't fuck with your life
And it don't look like much fun
It ain't about the ego or the greed
Try thinking what you want
Might not be what you need
Yeah
It's immaterial
What I think you done to me
It's inconceivable
That you can't see what I see
It's over baby
I ain't got time to cry
You won't admit it
But you hung me out to dry
Now I'm the pariah
Cast out to the shadows
Pariah
Though what I said was true
Denyer
You Hung me out to dry
Pariah
But I ain't got time to cry
No
i aint got time to cry
Im all about just getting through my day
when i get home at night
the angers here to stay
i try to moderate
and drown it out with wine
but my intolerance
has pushed me to the line
you might not think
what i say should be heard
but where i come from
i take hostages as words
it aint about the ego or the greed
you thought you figured me
but you just sowed another seed
Now I'm the pariah
Cast out to the shadows
Pariah
Though what I said was true
DenIer
You Hung me out to dry
Pariah
But I ain't got time to cry
No
i aint got time to cry

ANGEL DUST written by GIL SCOT HERON
He was groovin'
And that was when he coulda sworn
The room was movin'
But that was only in his mind
He was sailin'
He never really seemed to notice
Vision failin'
'Cause that was all part of the high
Sweat was pourin'
He couldn't take it
The room was exploding
He might not make it.
Angel Dust Please, children would you listen.
Angel Dust Just ain't where it's at.
Angel Dust You won't remember what you're
Missin', but down some dead end streets
There ain't no turnin' back.
They were standin'
Everybody in a circle
The whole family
Listening to the preacher's words
Sis was cryin'
She alone held all the secrets
'Bout his dyin'
Tears fallin' to earth
Maybe her fault
He was so trusting
God only knew why
They was dustin'!
Angel Dust Please children would you listen.
Angel Dust Just ain't where it's at.
Angel Dust You won't remember what you're
Missin', but down some dead end streets
There ain't no turnin' back.

WE ARE THE EVIL
We are the evil
we are the evil
we are the evil
we are the evil
in the dark we live
distorted traces
a broken mirror
in your mind
a broken mirror
in your mind
we've lived a lie
contaminated
holy myths destroyed our soul
gotta fight to gain control
we realise
we are the evil
eye for eye
has left us blind
hidden truths are hard to find
we are the evil
universal consciousness
is the cure to our sickness
we are the evil
we are the evil
we are the evil
we are the evil

FIGHT TONIGHT
dark times
People get ready
Drawing up your Kill Lists
Counting all your enemies
Too late to
Mind your own business
The last stand
Can I get a witness ?

Hold tight
Suffer indecision
Flip flopping
Lying politicians
Snap crackle
Pop goes the weasel
Times up
Social amnesia
fight tonight
Situation
We got money to burn
It's a fight tonight
Situation
We got money to burn
Deep down
There's no imagination
So What's new?
No time for hesitation
Canned laughter
Ringing through your eardrums
The cold finger points
Extermination
It's a fight tonight situation
We got money to burn
It's a fight tonight
Situation
We got money to burn

NO APOLOGIES
well you've got nothing to say
you've got nothing to hide
got no allegiances
to anyone on any side
your life's pretty dull
you go to the mall
you're moving
in the right wrong direction
get your ass
up against the wall
so you snort a little coke
shoot a little speed
take a dose of pills
smoke a gang of weed
drown out all the noise
hanging with the boys
blow your broken mind
tell me what you find
keep on driving
they're watching everything you do
give them something to watch
cos they envy you
fill your time and your head
with your own ideas
get your head round that
no apologies
well I've been living my life
at the same gear
with my foot to the floor
with no fear
dont give a shit
what the people are saying
im not involved in the games
that they're playing
dont read the papers
or watch television
im not a part of the plan
they envision
where you stand
are you happy you're living
suck the scum
from the shit that you're given
so you snort a little coke
shoot a little speed
take a dose of pills
smoke a gang of weed
drown out all the noise
hanging with the boys
blow your broken mind
tell me what you find
keep on driving
they're watching everything you do
give them something to watch
cos they envy you
fill your time and your head
with your own ideas
get your head round that
no apologies
