1000 More Fools
I heard them say that the meek shall reign on earth
Phantasmal myriads of sane bucolic birth
I've seen the rapture in a starving baby's eyes
Inchoate beatitude, the Lord of the Flies
So what does it mean when your mind starts to stray?
Kaleidoscopic images of love on the way
Brother you'd better get down on your knees and pay
1,000 more fools are being born every fucking day
They try to tell me that the lamb is on the way
With microwave transmissions they bombard us every day
The masses are obsequious, contented in their sleep
The vortex of their minds ensconsed within the murky deep
So what does it mean when your mind starts to stray?
Kaleidoscopic images of love on the way
Brother you'd better get down on your knees and pay
1,000 more fools are being born every fucking day

How Much Is Enough?
Tell me can the hateful chain be broken?
Production and consumption define our hollow lives
Avarice has led us 'cross the ocean,
Toward a land that's better, much more bountiful and wide
When will mankind finally come to realize
His surfeit has become his demise?
How much is enough to kill yourself?
That quantity is known today, as we blow ourselves away
Tell me is there anything so sure?
Rapacity, tenacity, capacity for more!
Like a dog that feeds until he suffers,
The infirmity of man is brough on by his selfish cure
When will mankind finally come to realize
His surfeit has become his demise?
How much is enough to kill yourself?
That quantity is known today, as we blow ourselves away

When?
I've seen a lot of things in five years
I struggle just to hold back the tears
But every fucking where I go
I see the pathos that I know
Will spell the termination of us all
Someone's got to tell me, do you see
That everything around you has a hidden tragedy?
Seeds of happiness have never
Found a place to grow
And our generation doesn't know
When, when will you try
To change the logarithmic face of kissing things goodbye?
When, when will you know
That human life is so short and death is oh so slow?
I've tried to make things make sense but I can't
I'm happy just to watch them all and laugh
And if you think you've got it made,
Just revel in your selfish ways,
'Cuz when the world stops turning so will you!
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

Give You Nothing
Hey, everybody's looking but they never can see
All the angst, corruption and the dishonesty
Think about the times and places you've never known
You're a man-swarm atom and yet you're alone
So I give you me, I give you nothing!
I give you me, I give you nothing!
So you got a place that you can call all your own,
But you make a habit of carrying the stone
Look around and ask someone if you are alive
You're a sidewalk cipher speaking prionic jive
So I give you me, I give you nothing!
I give you me, I give you nothing!
Respectable, despicable, it seems all the same
Now we realize that we have nothing to say
If your reserve is weak, audacity complete
Ask yourself again, "Do I deserve much from them?" No!
Hey, everybody's looking but they never can see
All the angst, corruption and the dishonesty
Look around and ask someone if you are alive
You're a sidewalk cipher speaking prionic jive
So I give you me, I give you nothing!
I said I give you me, I give you nothing!

Land Of Competition
See there's a girl who's afraid of the world so she stays at home
Also a boy who seems so lost in his joy, he's all alone
The camera's on them, they're in the land of competition
Southern California air feeds them
And they know they are best 'cuz of the way they are dressed
But you can bet you are not welcome in their home
See there's a girl who sits and watches the world from her blue screen
Also a boy who truly wants to destroy his hometown scene
They both want to travel to the land of competition
Southern California will destroy them
And they won't be the best, they'll be the poseurs who dress
Like the plastic idiots who they copy
Tell me what do you need to make you happy? Indeed, is it out of your reach?
Beware of number one, see all the damage it has done, there are so few of them
You won't find to many in the land of competition
Southern California doesn't breed them
If you just want the best turn to yourself for the rest
And forget about the ones who "have it all"
Be careful of the ones who "have it all"
Be careful of the ones who "have it all"
Forget about the ones who "have it all"

Forbidden Beat
There was a boy who had too many toys and an ache inside of his bones
He sought extrication through chemical vocation and now he answers to Jones
It's deadly and alluring, the sound of pounding heat
Enslaving all who dare succumb to the temptations of the forbidden beat
Thinking today of what I want to say, thinking of inhibition and vice
What they call straight I do relegate as I cautiously saltate along
It's deadly and alluring, the sound of pounding heat
Enslaving all who dare succumb to the temptations of the forbidden beat
It thunders away at first light of each day and the simpleton lifestyle evolves
But soon enters dusk as the last surrey rusts and a new day upon us results
It's deadly and alluring, the sound of pounding heat
Enslaving all who dare succumb to the temptations of the forbidden beat
Forbidden Beat - (6x)

Best For You
Above us lay the burdens, below us lay the truth
We're somewhere in the middle, and we're all discontent too
Is someone watching over you?
Inside they know what's best for you
Judgment's not tomorrow, its today yes now it's here
But no it isn't Jesus, take a look at all your peers
They're all looking down on you
Inside they know what's best for you
Everybody knows what's best for you - (8x)

Suffer
Did you ever see the concrete stares of everyday?
The lunatic, the hypocrite, are all lost in the fray
Can't you see their lives are just like yours?
An unturned stone, an undiscovered
Door leading to the gift of hope renewed, eternity for you
The masses of humanity have always had to suffer
The businessman whose master plan controls the world each day
Is blind to indications of his species' slow decay
Can't you see his life is just like yours?
An unturned stone, an undiscovered
Door leading to the gift of hope renewed, eternity for you
The masses of humanity have always had to suffer
People blow their minds, they choose to resign
This deformed society is part of the design
It'll never go away, it's in the cards that way
The masses of humanity have always, always had to suffer!
A door leading to the gift of hope renewed, eternity for you
The masses of humanity, still clinging to their dignity
The masses of humanity will always have to suffer
Always have to suffer

Delirium Of Disorder
Delirium of Disorder - (2x)
Life is the sieve through which my anarchy strains
Resolving itself into works
Chaos is the score upon which reality is written
The timeless, swirling gyroscopic horde
Delirium
Delirium of disorder
Yeah, I am just an atom in an ectoplasmic sea
Without direction or a reason to exist
The anechoic nebula rotating in my brain
Is persuading me, contritely, to persist
Delirium of disorder - (8x)

Part II (The Numbers Game)
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
It's superficial progress, they call it liberation
With opiates of silicon, Big Brother schemes to rule the nation
We're one nation under God, we stand above the rest;
With mighty high technology, we're never second best
Our specialty is infiltration!
Prepare yourself for subjugation,
Victory through domination
(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
The trepidatious throngs all fears the big eye in the sky
The government observes them with their own electric eye
We're one nation under God, we stand above the rest
With mighty high technology, we're never second best
Our specialty is infiltration!
Prepare yourself for subjugation
Automatons, illiterates, and indigents of every shape and size
Don't stop but aid this cruel crusade, participate in their own demise
We're one nation under God, we stand above the rest
With mighty high technology, we're never second best
Our specialty is infiltration!
So pack your bags you third-world nation
Victory through domination

What Can You Do?
So you waste another day getting older and gray in the head
And you're hearing lots of stories 'bout the happy times you have ahead
There are other folks in power so you kick back and get farther behind
And although the world rotates itself the only thing you twist is your mind
You see, the world's falling apart at the rifts
And surprisingly, the leaders can't make any sense of it
You mean nothing to the world, we're all someone else's fool
But oh, what can you do?
Yeah you waste your time with losers if you get stuck in a rock-n-roll band
Do you find it more rewarding to compete with morons throughout this land?
They seem to be in power so I'll kick back and get farther behind
And I watch them as they fuck up every good thing on this earth with their "minds"
You see, the world's falling apart at the rifts
And surprisingly, the leaders can't make any sense of it
You mean nothing to the world, we're all someone else's fool
But oh, what can you do?
Yeah you waste another day getting older and gray in the head
And we're hearing lots of stories 'bout the happy times we have ahead

We mean nothing to the world, we're all someone else's fool
But oh, what can you do?
I said, oh, what can you do?

Do What You Want
Hey do what you want, but don't do it around me
Idleness and dissipation breed apathy
I sit on my ass all goddamn day
A misanthropic anthropoid with nothing to
Say what you must, do all you can
Break all the fucking rules and
Go to Hell with Superman and
Die like a champion, yeah hey!
Hey I don't know if the billions will survive
But I'll believe in God when 1 and 1 are 5
My moniker is man and I'm rotten to the core
I'll tear down the building just to pass through the door
So do what you must, do all you can
Break all the fucking rules and
Go to Hell with Superman and
Die like a champion, yeah hey!

Part IV (The Index Fossil)
We're widespread and well fed
The earth's rotating fate is in our head, oh yeah
We're dominant and prominent
And our diety's omnipotent, oh yeah
And immortality's in our mastermind
And we destroy everything we can find
And tomorrow when the human clock stops and the world stops turning
We'll be an index fossil buried in our own debris
We're listless, promiscuous
And life to us is either hit or miss, oh yeah
We're savoir faire and debonaire
And things we do are done with pride and care, oh yeah
And immortality's in our mastermind
And we destroy everything that we find
And tomorrow when the human clock stops and the world stops turning
We'll be an index fossil buried in our own debris
See, immortality's in our mastermind
And we destroy everything that we find
And tomorrow when the human clock stops and the world stops turning
We'll be an index fossil buried in our own debris

Pessimistic Lines
So here we are again to experience the bitter, scalding end
And we're the only ones who can perceive it
But others sing of beauty and the story that's unfolded
As one that deserves praise and ritual
My pessimistic lines
Your superstitious lives
And the modern age's lies won't absolve you
And the professorial truth
And the dear clairvoyant youth
And of course the nightly news will deceive you
(Watch out!)
