Sitting in my time machine blasting through all time
Watching fractured memories, my future is left behind Seasons passing in a blink, days pass by to years Take me to a better place, save me from my fears [Chorus] The future, the past New horizons, through time I blast Race against time Past the golden gates of paradise in the land that time forgot Retrieve the wishes of your dreams, the things in life you sought Beyond your wildest fantasies, your eyes you won't believe Pioneer a new frontier, another concept to conceive [Chorus] Travelled through the centuries of uncalculated time When laws of physics are broken it's not considered a crime You can stand and watch as battles rage and people die in vein Like watching an old time movie over and over again No future, no past Lost horizon, will we last? Race against time 02. In Hell
Fire and brimstone, sulphur smell
The home of evil in the depths of hell Cauldrons a-boil with blood and bone Your soul is taken for the devil to own In hell Toxic air and intense heat Burning embers upon your feet Drawn and quartered, disembowelled When serving Satan is what you've vowed Fire's burning in hell In hell Tortured souls must pay the price Victims of their own device Banished to this forsaken place To stare upon the demon's face Fire's burning in hell In hell Severed limbs and burned out eyes No one cares and no one cries On your knees you bend and cower To bare your soul to be devoured Fire's burning in hell In hell 03. Holy Wood
Jesus was crucified
Moses parted the sea I saw it on a movie On the TV The bible is a book That started with Adam and Eve Filled with mambo jumbo Do you believe? Holy wood, holy shit David and Goliath Man and morality Wars in the Middle East A taste of reality Ishmael and Isaac Brothers in hate Prewritten history Does it tell us our fate? Holy wood, holy shit Our father who art in heaven (spit) Written like a screen play With morality implied A priest diddles a choir boy Truth can be denied Politics, religion Still go hand in hand Draw you own conclusion Draw your line in the sand Jesus was crucified Moses parted the sea I saw it on a movie On the TV Holy wood, holy shit 04. Still Going Strong
Dick Dale
Sure could wail Haley rocked the clock Chuck and Holly Good golly Miss Molly It was the birth of rock'n'roll Beatles, Stones Innovative tones Hendrix burned his guitar Acid rock What a shock Adolescence of rock'n'roll [Chorus] Parents said it's wrong Don't listen to the devil's song Critics said it won't last long After 50 years still going strong Still going strong Still going strong, never will die Still going strong Still going strong, I tell no lie Jimmy Page All the rage Cream was over the top Rod and Beck Deep Purple's living wreck Black Sabbath sold their soul [Chorus] Still going strong Still going strong, never will die Still going strong Still going strong, I tell no lie Priest and Maiden came along Anvil makes a metal song Like a club that you belong Here we are still going strong 05. Don't Ask Me
Never ending universe coming to an end
Oceans running dry, on what can we depend? Alien abduction, sight a UFO Decimated landscape, I don't want to know Unanswered questions I ponder each day Please don't you ask me, I have nothing to say? Don't ask me for the answer Don't ask me 'cause I don't know Decomposing plastic, the sun going black When will they push the button? When's the Messiah coming back? Natural disaster, volcanoes erupt Innocent convicted, justice is corrupt Unanswered questions I ponder each day Please don't you ask me, I have nothing to say Don't ask me any questions Don't ask me the status quo Don't ask me for the answer Don't ask me 'cause I don't know Genetic engineering create a perfect clone Find a cure for cancer, we're in the twilight zone The end of all hostility, refugees set free Peace and tranquillity, the final destiny Unanswered questions day after day Please don't you ask me, I really can't say Don't ask me any questions Don't ask me the status quo Don't ask me for the answer Don't ask me 'cause I don't know Don't ask me any questions Don't ask me which way to go Don't ask me for the answer Don't ask me 'cause I don't know 06. Waiting
Seems no matter what I do
I end up standing in line I find myself in another queue Give me some cheese for my wine It doesn't matter where you go It's always the same old thing Feels like roots will begin to grow When it's winter it will soon be spring Caught in another traffic jam The bank teller's broken a nail You know I really don't give a damn The cheque is in the mail They said they'd pay me yesterday I know it's always late Just another wasted day You've got to hurry up and wait [Chorus] Waiting, waiting, always someone in front of you Waiting, waiting Waiting, waiting, it's something I hate to do Waiting, waiting Waiting, waiting, waiting Take a number, stand in line That's what you must do I've had enough, I have no time Won't you tell me something new? The waiting game has its rules That you can't defy I always seem to lose my cool I'll be waiting until I die [Chorus] 07. White Rhino
[Instrumental]
08. What I'm About
Don't know where to begin
It comes from within It's my story Started as a boy Music was my toy It's my glory Never passed a day That I didn't play My heart out I'll never let it go It's all I wanna know That's what I'm about That's what I'm about I do it for the love It's all I'm thinking of It's in my heart I feel it in my soul It's my only goal I do my part Never will pass a day That I won't play My heart out I'll never let it go I'll just let you know That's what I'm about That's what I'm about 09. Sativa
There's a plant that we all know
As sweet sativa Long sticky leaves and a frosty glow Sweet little diva Sweet sativa, never leave ya Gets me through the stresses in my life Sativa Sweet sativa Fragrant scent that you long to smoke Sweet sativa If you posses this to have a toke I want to meet ya Sweet sativa, never leave ya Gets me through depression in my life Sativa Sweet sativa Cannabis sativa Grown by nature down in Mexico Sweet sativa Don't say it's bad, I don't wanna know I won't believe ya Sweet sativa, I'll never leave ya Gets me through the boredom in my life Sativa Sweet sativa Sativa Sweet sativa Cannabis sativa 10. Defiant
I don't care what you say
I just live for today I just do what I feel A brazen heart made of steel Nothing can stop me I do it my way I'm defiant You can't tell me what to do To myself I know I'm true I defy and break the rules The masses are asses, a bunch of fools Nothing can stop me I do it my way No one can blame me For being this way [Chorus] I'm defiant Defiant Against the grain is where I go A rebel cause is all I know A social misfit is on the loose Making the life that I choose Nothing can stop me I do it my way No one can blame me For being this way [Chorus] I don't care what you say I just live for today I just do what I feel Brazen heart made of steel Nothing can stop me I do it my way No one can blame me For being this way [Chorus] |
