1. MASK

You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You look better that way
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You look better that way
Are you my friend?
Are you my plumber?
Are you my God?
What do you do?
Wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?
Complicated, crushed up, disappointed
Squirming, angry, thrusting, stabbing, regretting, starving
Greedy human alien being, struggling down the street
Up the alley, in the elevator, through the party
To the office, in the bedroom, on your way to the morgue
Bullshitting, lying, doing a good deed or feeling loved barely possible
Aware of insatiable demands of not a society all around you
Chunky frat boys in their shorts, pimps with old Semite eyes
Sex hoochies of the jungle, sensitive smart Alec college graduates
Critics fronting franticly in New York city, everybody in L.A.
Just plain licking ass or having it licked
Irony in place of balls, balls in place of brains
Brains in place of soul, where is the soul?
Where is the love, where am I?
Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?
Which mask are you?
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
You're wearing a mask
Which mask are you?



2. L.O.S.T.

I got my work
I got my work
The profit of doom is walking the beach
With a psychotic breakdown cardboard sign
Everything's faked and there's nothing to teach,
And there's no point in running crying
And i'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
Evil
I walk through the filthy sterile wasteland
When i'm no good they'll dump me on a scrap heap to die
Giant american tyrannosaur,
Even the animals are running away.
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
L.o.s.t. lost
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
In a garden of evil
Evil
Evil baby
I got my work
Yeah
I walk through the filthy sterile wasteland
When I'm no good they'll dump me on a scrap heap to die
Giant American tyrannosaur
Even the animals are running away
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost
I'm l.o.s.t. lost



3. HOWL

Fuck it
I feel like howling
Got nowhere to turn
They'll kill you
For your spirit
This is what you learn
The music of tomorrow is
What you feel today
The owners of the future
Is not the one they say
A montain of faces
Is rapin' my ear
I'm glad that my pride is
Stronger than my fear
I'm howling, baby
I'm howling, baby
Howling, baby
I knew the producer
He's got lots of tricks
He is the starmaker
The bands are little pricks
The music of tomorrow is
What you feel today
The owners of the future
Is not the one they say
A montain of faces
Is rapin' my ear
I'm glad that my pride is
Stronger than my fear
I'm howling, baby
I'm howling, baby
I'm howling, baby
I'm howling, baby
Howling, baby
Howling, baby
Howling, baby
Howling, baby
I'm howling, baby



4. FOOTBALL

I'm a football baby,
Rollin' round the field.
I've been passed and fumbled,
Till I don't know what I feel.
Everybody's the same,
They're all footballs too.
Setting up the big play
And trying to score.
I'm a football baby
In a football game
I'm a football baby
Run-kick
Life's a football game
As every chump and champ knows.
We don't touch, we collide
Till we're worn out inside
We're kicking each other
Right where it hurts
Setting up the big play
And trying to score
I'm a football baby
In a football game
I'm a football baby
I'm a football baby
In a football game
I'm a football baby
Block-pass
I'm a football baby
In a football game
I'm a football baby
Run-kick-hit-goal



5. SAVIOR

If The saviour came again today,
Would you like him or turn him away,
Would he have a girlfriend with a thong,
Or a boy group singing dumbass songs.
Would he be a rapper with a gun,
Or a bugger building steel buns.
If the saviour was crucified to lose
What's the difference?
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Watch me walk on water
Watch me walk on water
Watch me walk on water
Before they...
Put me in a box
We Should have never
Gotten another break
Praying is an art for it's own sake,
Would he have a pair of Gucci shoes...
With a pitbull
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Watch me walk on water
Watch me walk away on water
Watch me walk on water
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Get me outta here
Watch me walk on water
Watch me walk away on water
Watch me walk on water

7. TALKING SNAKE

Look what you have done
Ruined every single one
See what fools they are
Jealous of a simple star
Feel the winds blow
Let the sword hang low
Life's to take
Says the talking snake
Everybody should be happy
Life's to take
Says the talking snake
Everybody should be happy
To tell the sucking truth
Everybody's dreams get used
Twist me till I drip
Liquid of emotions ripped
Every hungry soul
Hides a hungry fool
Life's to take,
Says the talking snake
Everybody should be happy
Life's to take
Says the talking snake
Everybody should be happy
Feel the winds blow
Let the sword hang low
Life's to take
Says the talking snake
Everybody should be happy
Life's to take
Says the talking snake
Everybody should be happy
Should be happy
Should be happy



8. THE JERK

Look, here comes the jerk
See the guy with the fake smile
Talking to my girl in a friendly style
He thinks he's quite the flirt
She'd suck a rats' dick before she'd fuck
Him his brain is full of dirt
That's why the guy's a jerk
His balls are gonna burst
Thats why the guy's a jerk
Oh man you're killing me
Hey man your killing me
He hangs out by the ladies room
His pick up line is like the voice of doom
"Hey baby do ya wanna go out with me
and by the way I make a lotta money"
His method just don't work
That's why the guy's a jerk
By the office Johnny lurks
That's why the guy's a jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Jerk
Oh man you're killin' me
Hey man your killin me
look here comes the jerk
look here comes the jerk
look here comes the jerk
look here comes the jerk
Him his brain is full of dirt
That's why the guy's a jerk
His balls are gonna burst
That's why the guy's a jerk
Oh man you're killing me
Hey man your killing me



9. DEATH IS CERTAIN

Death is the best
Better than all the rest
On the dutifull lies in the rock paradise
Losses and wear and the texture of age
Adds a truth to the heart
And a light to the face
It's good when you don't give as
Much of a fuck
As you did when the threats mount
To make you suck
A burst of rage
A lively cry
Emotions wide
Your death is certain for sure
My death is certain alright
But death is certain no cure
'Cause death is certain
'Cause death is certain so why?
Gotta die
A bone and a skull
In a conjugal hell
A mall full of gall
And the music jerks off
Pale and fate
At the table they sat
With their necks choking tight
In their collars dead white
Liquor and food 'till
They spin and explode
In a shower of crap
In America's lap
A pliceman's numb
A lazy bum
Emotions come
'Cause death is certain it's sure
'Cause death is certain it's pure
'Cause death is certain no cure
'Cause death is certain
'Cause death is certain that's why
Gotta die
Alright
Alright
Well, alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
Alright
A beast with legs
A kid who's numb
A lazy bum
Your death is certain it's sure
'Cause death is certain it's pure
'Cause death is certain no cure
'Cause death is certain



10. GO FOR THE THROAT

I was lying in a coma
By the side of some damn road
My fucking heart was pounding
Like I thought it would explode
I had no protection
No familly
No friends
I had nothing really
But a will to make this end
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
I'm so fucked'up
It isn't very nice
What I do to make end's meet
It isn't very pretty when you hate
The folks you meet
It's a shame to feel hurt and angry everyday
It's a shame to take it out
On whoever's in the way
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Man I'm so fucked'up
I'm fucked'up
I'm fucked'up
I'm fucked'up
I'm fucked'up
Man I'm so fucked'up
Poor little girl
I hurt her really bad
I haven't been the same since I lost my mom and dad
Where is the justice?
Well I really don't know
When everybody is singing
Like a fucking so and so
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up
Yeah I'm so fucked'up
Yeah Yeah Yeah
They took away my freedom
They took away my games
They took away my innocence
And gave me shitty fame
There's nothing left to stop me
There's nothing left to feel
There's nothing left inside me
But a low down dirty deal
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up baby
Go for the throat
I'm fucked'up baby
I'm so fucked'up baby
I'm so fucked'up
Oh I'm fucked'up
I'm so fucked'up
Oh I'm fucked'up
I'm so fucked'up
Oh I'm fucked'up
Go for the throat



11. WEASELS

Weasels are runnin me to death,
I checked my gas there ain't much left.
Still i will take a parting shot,
Before I leave myself to rot.
Barbaric motherfucking weasels
Weasels
Weasels
Weasels have always been my friends
I've turned them loose now there's no end
Giants of rock tell giant lies
Weasels control the evil skies
Barbaric motherfucking weasels
Bad breath bad taste cause of deseases
I feel disgrace and I feel shame
I feel anger and I feel blame
I feel suspicion and I feel pride
I feel weasels on all sides
Weasels
Weasels
Weasels
Weasels
Weasels
With guitars on TV
Weasels
Rewriting rock history
Weasels
With an office and a chair
Weasels
With nice butts and long silky hair
Weasels suck and weasels blow
Weasels control rock and roll
Weasels control rock and roll
Weasels control rock and roll
Weasels control rock and roll
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Rock and roll
Weasels

It must be shit
If it feels like shit
Tastes like shit
It must be shit
If it looks like shit
Sounds like shit
It must be shit
If it smells like shit
Tells like shit
It must be shit
See Times Square
A vacum of feeling
Listen, little man
Advertise this
That it's all shit
It's all shit
Nothing but shit
Billboard shit
Love just keeps on coming
Love will clean it up
Love just keeps on coming
Love will sweep it out

14. UGLINESS

C'mon! Yeah hey all right
You got an ugly ass guy
He got a problem with his dick
You got a song with no soul
Fucking don't mean a thing
He got an ugly bouzy house
He got a girlfriend on T.V
That girl's something
He can't sing for shit
And I'm trying to be a person
But they all say I'm worthless
I'm trying to be a person
But they all make me nervous
This is my description of an ugliness
This is my description of an ugliness
This is my description of an ugliness
This is my description of an ugliness
Ugliness
Ugliness
Ugliness
You got a dog face chic
With basketball tit's
Porno sucks
That's the truth of it
You got a bunch of dumb fat guys
In a wrestling uniform
Trying to fake they're playing music
They ought to be killed
And I'm trying to be a person
But they all say I'm worthless
I'm trying to be a person
But they all say I'm worthless
This is my description of an ugliness

They got the chics, The money cars and all, but they ain't got no motherfuckin' balls
They got the chics, The money cars and all, but they ain't got no motherfuckin' balls
They got a fungus on their dick
They got bald heads and tupe's
They're in total control
Total fucking control
They're even parked in my space
You got a song with no soul
No truth no love
Because the music sucks
That's why little kids blow up
Everybody needs a gun
To express feelings
That should be expressed by a real musician
And I'm trying to be a person
But they all say I'm worthless
I'm trying to be a person
But they all say I'm worthless

15. V.I.P.

I'm a Very Important Person
I park in the V.I.P
And when I go to the bathroom
I go in the V.I.P toilet
And when I wanna change a lightbalb
I don't do it myself Oh no
I have a technician
Cause I'm a V.I.P
I'm a V.I.P
I'm a V.I.P
I'm a V.I.P
Now as I began to become a V.I.P
I forgot what I've become a V.I.P for
I began to grow accustomed to people saying:
"Right this way sir, drinks are on the house"
Flight attendants on airplanes saying :
"Please, really, I don't wanna bother you sir, but it's such a pleasure to have you on board
May I have your autograph for my daughter?"
"Yeah baby right after I go to the toilet”
I'll give you a couple of them
Cause I'm a V.I.P
Now, one thing about V.I.P is, is they never seem to be alone
Oh no!
The "true" V.I.P must travel with an entourage!
People who say "Right on boss"
Cause it's a V.I.P
Right on boss
I'm a V.I.P
As I began to realize that I had gained V.I.P status
worries began to creep in
What if one day, I woke up, and I was no longer a V.I.P
No more good tables at the restaurants...
No more strange women smiling and approaching me on the streets...
No more top notch booty
No more entourage to say "Right boss"
I began to have nightmares
And in my nightmares, I was just a fucking nobody
Laying at the beach, imagining myself being a VIP
Just like I was before
Hearing the applause in my head
Beautiful warm embraces of superior members of the female gender
