01. Funeral Parlor

Welcome to the funeral parlor
Now you must die
People warned you
I'm a terrible place
You didn't listen
You laughed in their face
Thought you were a bad ass
Until you were reborn
Now you feel the thrashing pain
As you soul is ripped and torn

Living for nothing
Fight with fear
Death is you
You are death
It's the beginning of the end

Bombs exploding all around
Comrades lying on the ground
People running
Cause they're scared
Do they even really care

Living for nothing
Fight with fear
Death is you
You are death
It's the beginning of the end

Welcome to the funeral parlor
Welcome to the funeral parlor
Come with us
Funeral parlor
Among the dead

Thrashing, Smashing
Evil minds fucking the dead
Got to, Do what
They're alla round
Just do wha they said
Never gonna go home
Just come and die with us forever

02. The Day After

The time is here
Our hour of death
Declaration of war
We'll soon be dead
Missiles are flying
People are dying
Hope has gone to shame

Rotting the day after
Life was never so much to me
Mutatnts all around
Comrades lying on the ground
Listen to what they said
They were right, We're gonna die
Nuclear war

We'll die forever
They should learn
But they never
The children are our future
Give it to them
Step down politician
Give us a hand man
Don't you understand

Nuclear warfare raging on earth
Destruction the ultimare key
Life termination
The reward
No living beyond this decree
Bodies turned to vapor
The ghost of the past

Death
War
Mutants all around us
Death be to all

Sin, evil forces, sin
Nations at the end
Satan pronounces The Day After

Violence and pain
Malicious crew
The soldiers of death
Are after you
Missiles are flying
People are dying
Hope has gone to shame

03. Tombs Of Forgotten Souls

You have no mercy
As you kill
You instill
Into the hearts
Of beaten men
As you kill end kill again

The struggle within
The struggle inside
The deadly tombs
You abide
You know not what you're fighting for
Mother war
Hated whore

Lost morale
Lost cause
Lost epopee
Lost wars
Deadly games
Deadly fate
Merciful thought
Unholy lies
People live
People die
Not you man, you were born to fry
Give it up
Give me hate
Give me liberty, or give me death

The struggle within
The struggle inside
The deadly tombs
You abide
You know not what you're fighting for
Mother war
Hated whore

Tombs of forgotten souls
Memories left untold

04. Fundamental Mental Derangement

Locked inside this rubber room
Rubber room death waiting for you
The nurses coming, coming for you
To give you a shot in your room
Death is waiting for you

Fundamental mental
derangement
Doctors coming for you
Fundamental mental
Derangement

Darkness is no love
When tow worlds collide

Lying, dying, laughing, crying
Never really seeing the light
You're just a pretty girl
Living in your plastic world
You fuckin' bitch, you'll never see the light
Fundamental mentally
Deranged

There is no love when two worlds collide
Deliver her to evil, kiss the world goodbye

Fundamental mental
Derangement
Doctors coming for you
Fundamental mental
Derangement

Lying, dying, laughing, crying
Never really seeing the light
You're just a pretty girl
Living in your plastic world
You fuckin' bitch, you'll never see the light

05. Raping Mother Nature

We want
We work
We pray
For the age of Aquarius
But the viciously sick politicians
Wh use propaganda just to get their way
Ruin our resources and pollute our water
To get their power and to get their pay

Burning down the trees
Polluting all the streams
Destroying all our dreams
What are all these means

Like a flower blooms and wilts away
Mother nature's pissed, she's gone away
Keep America green

Polluting all the air
No more ozone in the atmosphere
World Affliction's near
The death of mother earth is here

Welcome to my city
Smell the song
It's a pity
Ain't it so pretty

06. The Damnation Of Humanization

In the days of old
The plague was spawned
You were driven insane
This is life's doom
You're gasping for air
You fever's immense
So wilt down now your end has come
So wilt down now

It spreads across the land
Runs rancid in the home of the free
We can't find a cure
All hope is gone
Aids is the plague we fear
Our end is here
Aids the plague we fear

In the days of old
The plague was spawned
You were driven insane
This is life's doom
For one night of sex
And simple pleasure
You pay the price
And the price is your life
So wilt down now your end has come
Your end has come

Your life is wilting away
This is mortal decay
Aids is taking you away
Aids the plague we fear
Our end is here
You've got no chance
You're gonna die

It spreads across the land
Runs rancid in the home of the free
We can't find a cure
All hope is gone
Aids is the plague we fear
Our end is here
Aids the plague we fear

07. Methamphetamine

Human waste, classical tragedy
Why buy it? You're gonna die
Speed kills, you know it
You owe bills, don't care
You're lying, to yourself
You know it, speed kills

Sit at home, do a line
Watch some TV
Killing you, why don't you
Do...the right thing
Snort a line, up your nose
Never...what it seems
Human waste, such a haste
Classical tragedy
Meth...

Putting money, up your nose
Don't even try to sleep
Just one more, for the road
You've got a fuckin' disease
The higher you are, the more you do

Doing more, more and more
Can't stop now, be my guest
Might as well, slit your wrist
Your whole world's up your nose
Don't you know that...speed kills

Speed kills...

The higher you are, the more you di
Doing more, more and more
Can't stop now, be my guest
Might as well, slit your wrist
Speed kills, don't you see
Speed kills, just look at me
Speed kills...

08. Peace Through Violence

Middle Eastern crisis grows
Bigger everyday
Leaders of the nations
Speak, war is underway
All they want is power
And weapons at no price
They're fuckin' with our allies
It's our turn...to roll the dice

Peace, Peace, Peach through violence
Peace, Peace, Peach through violence

The smell of war, fills the air
Saddam's insane, but who's to care
We fought in the jungle
We're fighting in the sand
We're helping out Kuwait
We're lending them a hand
Why should we make it
Another Vietnam?
Fuck'em all man, let's drop the bomb

Ships waiting to attack
Killing every man and woman in Iraq
You think you have it all
Oil and arms, we're gonna
Prove you wrong
Febbre minded troops
Marching their way through
The sands of death
Chemicals we'll use
To exterminate each and
every one of you

Peace, Peace, Peach through violence
Peace, Peace, Peach through violence
Peace, Peace, Peach through violence
Peace, Peace, Peach through violence

09. Pit Of Ignorance

Jumping around
Up and down
You fuckin' posers
You make me frown
I'll kick your ass
I'll throw you down
I'll fuck you up
You fucking clown

Welcome to the Pit of ignorance

You never slam when we
Play our hearts out for you
Don't you want to slam when we play
Well if you don't then i say fuck you
Retributed pain

Circle of hate
The den of confusion
Ignorance is king
That's not an illusion
If you get hurt
There's no one to blame
King of the pit
The name of the game
Swinging and kicking
Pushing the pack
Bodies are floating
A fist in your back
Around and around
In crazed violence
You have been caught
The pit of ignorance
The pit of ignorance
The pit of ignorance

There is no love when you enter the pit
Enter at your own risk
You never see the light
The pit of ignorance
It's violence
Swing your elbows, kick your feel

10. Severance Pay

Wake up
Look up at the sky
It's a beautiful day
It's a great day to die
How shall I murder
How shall I kill
I just want my fill
It doesn't matter how I kill
I'll get my thrill

Walk into my office
Packing guns and knives
Who pissed ,e pff last week
I'm going to take your lives
My boss is on my back
To him this I must say
Look out motherfucker
You're going to get blown away

Too bad I'm not in charge here
Because I'd let you live
Too bad you must die
Asking why

Walk into my office
Packing guns and knives
Who pissed me off last week
I'm going to take your lives
My boss is on my back
To him this I must say
Look out motherfucker
You're going to get blown away

Severance pay

11. Trying To Be Cool

Walk around, walk around
That's all you seem to do

With a beer in your hand
You're trying to be cool

People laughing at you
As you walk by

You're so cool

Trying to be cool
Trying to be cool
Trying to be cool
Trying to be cool
