letra de Recipe for Hate
Can't you feel it can't you see it
The promise of prosperity
It's overwhelming you and me
It afflicts us like a disease
Ubiquitous compelling too
We cling to you like crazy glue
And inject such a potent seed
It's best for all humanity
The spread of culture
The sword of progress
The vector of suffrage
A warm and septic breeze
The pomp and elation
The duty and vocation
The blood of the hybrid
It's just a recipe
Re-living our ancestry
The frightful lack of harmony
Our fore-fothers who led the way
Their victims are still here today
Now it's time to erase the story
Of our bogus fate
Our history as it's portrayed
It's just a recipe for hate

letra de Kerosene
Everywhere I look I see exclusive huddled uninviting
Shelter is a privilege of the same and competent

Kerosene keeps me warm
I'm alone to watch it burn
Kerosene

Exposure is a pitiful and pointless way of dying
Before it gets me I'll build a funeral pyre

Kerosene keeps me warm
I'm alone to watch it burn
Kerosene

I'm a man and my dignity won't wave
Tonight buildings rage!

Kerosene keeps me warm
Feels so good to watch it burn
Kerosene

Kerosene keeps me warm
I'm alone to watch it burn
Kerosene

Kerosene keeps me warm
Feels so good to watch it burn
Kerosene

letra de Portrait Of Authority
Recorded live June 26, 1996 at The Arena in Berlin, Germany

Nothing more, nothing less,
An icon on the wall, decoration and duress,
That which many strive to be,
It's the marble statue standing over me,
And nobody has the will to tear it down,
It determines wrong and right,
But to me it's just a stereotype
And it makes us lose our sight

The portrait of authority,
You tell me that's what I'm supposed to be
(it embodies what he cannot be)

Another time, another man,
An oppressive intrusion
And a plague across his land,
And it haunts him every day,
It tells him he has no chance
His hopes just fades away,
And he lives his life prepared to tear it down,
But he can't muster the support,
And to him it's just a stereotype
Of his life-long fight
Man With A MissionVer letra 3:11

letra de Man With A Mission
Rescue me when I get too deep,
Talk to me there's nothing to tell,
Everyone, is a hydocrite,
Look to me,
I'll save your soul
Now somebody out there must be
Reading my mail
Cuz' everybody knows
I'm a man with a mission,
Coming to your town today,
I can damm you to fiery perdition,
Cuz' I'm a man with a mission
Follow me, when you give up,
Work for me, it'll serve you well
Everyone is a hydocrite, come to me,
I'll save your soul
Now somebody out there must be
Tapping my phone,
Cuz everybody knows
I'm a man with a mission,
I'm gonna fly you away,
High above the noise and competition,
Yeah I'm a man with a mission,
Passing through your town today
I condemn you
To fiery perdition,
Yeah I'm a man with a mission

All Good SoldiersVer letra 3:07

letra de All Good Soldiers
All good soldiers crack like boulders
The sun climbs up to a razor,
Violins, new boots, and numbers on a chain
All good soldiers

All good soldiers fall in line
When they march and shout
All good soldiers are a spectacle
Marching and singing
Will go anywhere the president says
Because the president believes in God
Like all good soldiers should

All good soldiers wait like warheads
When the fighting starts who will be
Accountable, a cannibal, a cannonball
All good soldiers, all good soldiers

All good soldiers fall in line
When they march and shout
All good soldiers are respectible
Marching and singing
Will go anywhere the president says
Because the president believes in God
Like all good soldiers should

It's 6 am I can see my breath
And the clay dirt is laughing at a weakling boy
Today is the day
That I'll write my friends
It's something I've been trying to remember
I had a dream of a wall
That was twenty-one stories tall
All...

All good soldiers fall in line
When they march and shout
All good soldiers are a spectacle
Marching and singing
Will go anywhere the president says
Because the president believes in God
Like all good soldiers should

Watch It DieVer letra 2:34

[X]
letra de Watch It Die
I was born on planet earth
The rotating ball where man comes first
It's been around for a long, long time
But now it's time to watch it die

I saw a man on my big blue screen
He ruled the world economy
He said the rich would never concede
But some day soon he'll be put to sleep

I've seen the life of the forest green
And adaptations of the deep blue seas
And who knows who is the fittest
They will all soon be put to rest

On a plunging flight and we're sitting
In the pilots seat in the midst of life
People on a dark horizon praying
Somebody will save their lives

I was born on planet earth
At a drastic time full of plastic mirth
And everyday I've seen increasing signs
And you would too if you'd opened your eyes
You had a chance you did not try
So now it's time to watch it die
Struck A NerveVer letra 3:47

[X]
letra de Struck A Nerve
There's an old man on a city bus
Holding a candy cane
And it isn't even christmas
He see's a note in the obituary
That his last friend has died
There's an infant clinging
To his overweight mother in the cold
As they go to shop for cigarettes
And she spends her last dollar
On a bottle of vodka for tonight
And I guess it struck a nerve
Like I had to squint my eyes
You can never get out
Of the line of sight
Like a barren winter day
Or a patch of unburned green
Like a tragic real dream
I guess it struck a nerve
Every day I wander
In negative disposition
As I'm bombarded by superlatives
Realizing very well that I am not alone
Introverted
I look to tomorrow for salvation
But I'm thinking altruistically
And a wave of overwhelming doubt
Turns me to stone
And I guess it struck a nerve
Sent a murmur to my heart
We just haven't got time
To crack the maze
Like a magic speeding clock
Or a cancer in our cells
A collision in the dark
I guess it struck a nerve
I try to close my eyes
But I cannot ignore the stimuli
If there's a purpose for us all
It remains a secret to me
Don't ask me to justify my life
My Poor Friend MeVer letra 2:42

letra de My Poor Friend Me
I know a man
Who doesn't have many friends
I know a place he lives
Where trouble never ends
I know it's hard for him
To read 'tween the lines
And his days are getting so much shorter
He simply turns away
And dons a bitter frown
His world is crumbling
His ship is weighted down
He doesn't care
As long as he can wear the crown
I know this man all too well
Its my poor friend me
A portrayal of the great dichotomy
(a reminder of a tragic history)
Its my poor friend me
And I'm running out of steam
I know there are people
Who are cynical and vain
They point their finger
'cuz they can't accept the blame
They live their lives
Under a blanket of shame and their progeny
Crawl from underneath it
Lately I've come
To see the solution
And it begins with me
But I'm so fallibly human
I've picked the lock
But will not turn the key

Of people running scared
We live, breathe and die
Off to a world, our time is slipping on by
We have solutions, but don't even try
And I feel I know just who to blame
Lookin' In 2:03
Don't Pray On Me 2:42

letra de Modern Day Catastrophists
Take those potatoes out of your ear
Listen to the warnings
Verify all your fears
There's a world outside
That's ready to blow
And we're all to blame
When it finally explodes
You gotta listen up
Gotta listen to what
They're telling you
Gotta listen up and think
About what they're saying to you
They're the modern day catastrophists
They've got practical solutions
(know all the right equations)
They're the self-appointed
Righteous pragmatists
And they know 50 ways
To save the world
What makes you think
You can cure our disease?
Maybe it's just our biology
Maybe it's time to make room
For another species
This is the 21st Century
SkyscraperVer letra 3:15

[X]
letra de Skyscraper
Come let us make bricks and burn them hard,
We'll build a city with a tower for the world
And climb so we can reach anything we may propose,
Anything at all

Build me up, tear me down
Like a skyscraper
Build me up, then tear down
These joining walls
So they can't climb at all

I know why you tore it down that day
You thought, that if you got caught we'd all go away,
Like a spoiled little baby who can't come out to play,
You had your revenge

Build me up, tear me down
Like a skyscraper
Build me up, then tear down
These joining walls
So they can't climb at all

Well madness reigned and paradise drowned
When Babel's walls came crashing down
Now the echoes roar for a story writ ["for a story told" is the live version]
That was hardly understood
And never any good

Build me up, tear me down
Like a skyscraper
Build me up, then tear down
These joining walls
So they can't climb at all

Build me up [x2]

letra de Stealth
Stealth
This weekend I will spend over 800 million dollars on drugs.
First I will continue pushing free narcotics for all low income people not now
Covered and soon after that we can get rid of each and every one of them. And
I'm doing what I think is right, and they will certainly deserve it. And I...
(The lyrics to Stealth are spliced together from President Bush's State of the
Union Address in 1992).
