Electric Salvation

Dancing with death on a dare
Sinners creeping everywhere
Straightjacket so debonair
It gets you so high
From cradle to grave in a chair
Will never get you anywhere
Designer thrills don't compare
It gets you so high
Must be the time & the place
Shake me on out of here
Soaking up some atmosphere
Corrupt me so nice
Slaps on the jaw, in the face
She rockets me to outer space
I'd rather be in outer space
It gets me so high
Even though they condemn this electric suicide
Let's indulge with a primal life of slime
No, dontcha know, it's never gonna die
Now, dontcha know, we never gonna die

It's not a sin, if your head's in the gutter
Not a sin, it was all she could mutter
Let's swim, down with the bottom feeders
Swim, you better not be a bleeder
It's a long way out
So sweet, they all fall at your feet
Mistreat, so can I get a receipt?
So pure, at least when I met ya
Sex, well you could go a little bit further..
It's a long way out
I know how you feel inside
No wasting time alone, waiting by the phone
Head's are gonna roll, POWDERKEG
Don't need a diamond ring, no one gonna clip your wings
Blowing all their minds, POWDERKEG
Out on a limb, not inclined to decline
Grin, they'll never chalk your outline
Girl, you rise above the mania
A pearl, from Hell, Pennsylvania
It's a long way out...

Sick.Sick.Sick.

You better call a doctor
You'd better make it quick
You're SICK SICK SICK & so am I
Rather numb your brain, than rule your life
Sweeping the nation, a sweet sensation
Like a vacation from humanity
Join the regime, team no-esteem
The pharmacies breed insanity
All of those dollars, bought a collar
Drags your hollow carcass to your grave
Manic proportions, a soul abortion
Keep sucking the life out of the U.S.A.
SICK.SICK.SICK.
Another casualty, of mediocrity
Go & blame it on another invented disease
Don't bother calling doctors
Now it's up to me and you're just
A goddamn waste of time
Go & numb your brain, lose your mind

So Delicious
05:07

No embraces from this gray, blinded by the white
One more time with sinister delight
Licks of flesh to cinnamon, SO DELICIOUS takes a bite
Innocence is trashed away tonight
Tell me that there's so much more, show me, still I'm bored
It's all I can afford to stay alive
You lick that flesh to cinnamon, SO DELICIOUS every time
Or waste away to nothing in our prime
Come on, come on, sweet sugar darling
Come on & frolic in a trance
There's bloodlust on our minds
Bloodlust on my mind
All out of words to say, staring at the midnight sun
All out of words to wage, not one..
Crawl into oblivion
Or fall into oblivion

Macabre A Go-Go

Welcome to the MACABRE A GO-GO
The vampire media, one helluva show
It's a gala for the freaks, a televised low
So put your "death-look" on
It's MACABRE A GO-GO
Listen to me ..
One, Two, Three
Come on & turn me on
Let's have an orgy, let's get undressed
Bender on the conscience of our TV sets
Macabre for the masses, it's the 10 o'clock news
Desensitizing, scandalizing hullabaloo
I welcome you to MACABRE A GO-GO
You look so good, too good to be so low
I lick the salty taste of the blood on your lip
Bourbon-soaked lust, baby crack that whip

3am, intoxicated crazy
Won't fall asleep 'till dawn, the night's a little hazy
Oh, I caught your new friend
She's peeking around your playground
Oh-we got drop-dead drinkin', with the lights down
Whoa-oh, we GET TIGHT, let go
She get out of control
We GET TIGHT, let go
She won't stop
It's after 6am, sane & contemplative
Let's do it once again, & sear that it should end
I'm never, ever gonna wanna grow up
She get out of control

Anywhere But Here
04:33

ANYWHERE BUT HERE's where I'm gonna be
Tired of the lies, the 1-2-3
Disappear before your eyes, your eyes
Bringing me down, like it always do
I wanna hit the sky & start anew
Embrace another day all night, all night
There's gotta be a way
Oh, there's gotta be another way
Gotta be a way, gotta find a way
And dig myself a hole
Listen up now, this is how I play
Looking out for #1 every single day
Make no compromise, no wise
So, ANYWHERE BUT HERE's where I'm gonna be
No longer a part of your 1-2-3
Look right into your eyes, your eyes

Get up, everybody
As the nurses start to scream & shout
Stand up, for the doctors
Cause the tricks might bring you down
They gonna conjure love, they gonna conjure lust
Fixed up, on a love spell
Got you under my command
Lie down, little demons
Uncrossed in OLD BIRMINGHAM
I'll be your two-headed man
Drop down with the street sounds
OLD BIRMINGHAM's lost delights
Mojo for the underground, hot powder in the violet night
I'm just a two-headed man
I know you don't understand
Maybe I'll see you in a dream
Maybe I'll see you underneath the rollaway

Gimme Some Lip
04:02

|
Plug 'em in, you blow my mind
The natural swing can be so unkind
Lick your way to the top of the game someday
I crave obsession, with no exception, it's my redemption
I crave redemption, it's an obsession
No exceptions
I wanna shut your mouth
Gimme. gimme, GIMME SOME LIP
You never shut your mouth
Gimme. gimme, GIMME SOME LIP
Shut it
They prayed & prayed you'd be their pride one day
Mom & dad got blown away
While their credit bought your creativity
I blame temptation, a violation, it's saturation
I claim addiction, but it's tradition
Some contradiction, huh?
Got some time to waste
You're just another rotten soul with a pretty face
Say, I've got some time to waste
With your rotten soul

For Lovers

So now I'm gonna blow up my radio
I'm still reeling from that last song
I never felt so cheated
Underground, but not defeated
J-U-N-K..take a ride
Junk, junk, junk, junk rock FOR LOVERS
Why not become the public enemy?
Why not embrace this sonic energy?
We won't be defeated
Not a care 'bout how we're treated
J-U-N-K..keep on shouting, pouting

Once Upon A Crime
01:18

|
I fell down in the water again
Down for the very last time
Tripped & fell near the beaches of Hell
Looks like my fate is unkind...
Never claimed I'm a saint, never heard no complaints
Just a villain with wide-open eyes
Throw my boots on & run, use my tongue like a gun
Ya'll will miss me, ONCE UPON A CRIME
Even though they condemn this electric suicide
Let's indulge with a primal life of slime
to be continued...
