I Wanna Smell You
04:10
|
|
||
I want to smell you 'til the break of dawn
i want to smell you, is that wrong?
there's something that i gotta tell you, baby
there's something you ought to know
i've been watching you for some time
on the low, baby, on the low
i can see the direction we're taking
i can see that you're making a play
i can see that you've been mistaken
so before you get carried away, i gotta say
slow down, i don't want to touch you at all
I want to smell you 'til the break of dawn
i want to smell you, is that wrong?
i can tell you think it's freaky, honey
but it's something that's just for me, you see
and it's not like i'm taking your money
or i wanna get covered in pee
you're still here so i'll take it for granted
that you might be down for real
let me get big whiff of you, baby
and i promise that i'll make you squeal
slow down, i don't want to touch you at all
I want to smell you 'til the break of dawn
i want to smell you, is that wrong?

Man-Eating Cougar
02:52
|
|
||
yeah, it's time for dinner
all day, stalking her prey, her patience wearing thin
can't deny the drive within her
for the feast, a glorious beast, now she's closing in
CHORUS:
there's no escape, man, you better pray
don't try no fancy maneuvers
cause you ain't gonna get away
not tonight, she's a man-eating cougar
yeah, she's a killer
long claws, powerful jaws, a healthy taste for men
and it takes a lot to fill her
big cat, simple as that, on the prowl again
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
ah she's a man-eating cougar
ah oh but i love her now
ah she's a man-eating cougar
ah oh
yeah, she's a hunter
red meat, always a treat, she never gets her fill
no, she can't control her hunger
cloth rips, she's licking her lips, she goes in for the kill

Burly
03:23
|
|
||
I was born on a mountaintop, I live off the land
I kill bears with a single chop from my great big hand
I can eat whatever I want I've got animals for friends
I carved a house from a fuckin' rock and I'll do it again, because
I'm burly
I'm fuckin' sweet
I'm surly
don't fuck with me
I chew bark and I sleep in mud every single day
I skip rocks and i widdle wood, I've pissed my life away
I shit fire when I get real mad and I'll punch down a tree
Come on down to my woods one day and you'll see what I mean

Fancy Debutante
03:34
|
|
||
she's a fancy debutante
yeah, she's well put together
in her shoes that match her parasol
and if she gets to flaunt
she'll be down for whatever
lookin' fancy when she's dancin' at the ball
yeah, she's a debutante, she's kept up on her tan
loungin' poolside in the afternoon
in her white chiffon, her sights set on a man
i hope she'll settle for a goon
cause all i want
is a fancy debutante
she ain't too impressed with me
no she's far too conceded
going dancing with her fancy friends
she'll take the SUV
now that mom doesn't need it
mom takes the caddy now that daddy drives a benz
but for a fancy gown, no hand-me-down could be
the type of dress a baroness would wear
just take a glance around her fancy town, you'll see
they're all stuck up, but i don't care!
cause all i want
is a fancy debutante
in a fancy restaurant
i'll have a blue johnny walker
she'll have a greyhound with a twist of lime
yeah, she's a debutante
and i'm a cool party rocker
i'm living easy on her dime!
and all i want
is a fancy debutante

The Bully
03:08
|
|
||
night rolls in, it's time to find some trouble
see a star and put it in it's place
every night he rises from the rubble
to find a geek and punch him in the face
life ain't easy for the bully, no one takes his side, he knows he must make it on his own
no one dances with the bully, but that don't hurt his pride
the bully would rather dance alone
people say he's really just a coward
and over-compensation is his way
all his life he never had that real kind of power
so someone small and weaker has to pay
life ain't easy for the bully, no one takes his side, he knows he must make it on his own
no one dances with the bully, but that don't hurt his pride
the bully would rather dance alone
and no one ever tries to understand
life ain't easy for the bully, no one takes his side, he knows he must make it on his own
no one dances with the bully, but that don't hurt his pride
the bully would rather dance alone

when i get down with a sickness
lying in bed, feel like hell
there ain't no meds to help me kick this
there's only one thing that can make me well
she dances in to me so fucking sexy
her hat, her shoes, her uniform all white
she runs some tests to assess me
then gives me sexy healthcare through the night
cause she's my sexy nurse
(she she she likes to dance)
she's my sexy nurse
(she she she likes to dance)
she heals me where it hurts
(she she she likes to dance)
she's my sexy nurse
(she she she likes to dance)
when i'm laid up with a fever
she cools me down then gets me hot again
and then it's my turn to relieve her
prep her for injection, i descend
she says it stings for a second
but it's only pleasure once it breaks the skin
and now she always comes when i beckon
i love that sexy nursey medicine
and what a sexy nurse
(she she she likes to dance)
she's my sexy nurse
(she she she likes to dance)
she heals me where it hurts
(she she she likes to dance)
she's my sexy nurse
(she she she likes to dance)

Rockbringer
03:08
|
|
||
when i was just a child, a god appeared to me
his hair was long and wild, he was smelling of the sea
with fire in his eyes and thunder on his breath
he came down from the skies and he wore the sign of death
and he said:
my child, i will redefine style
when i'm in the zone, i'll dethrone any king
my style is so fucking buckwild
it will make you smile then defile everything
cause i'm the rockbringer! sex singer!
part god, part man, part animal
behold, I'm fucking bold
yeah!
he gathered some fire, he gathered up some clay
he built a small empire that is rocking to this day
but since the fall of rock, we've had to hide away
til he rejoined his flock and retaught us how to play
and he said
my sons, you were deified once
time to load the guns, no fronts, talk is old
a sick track running through a big stack
like a sneak attack bringing back rock and roll
cause i'm the rockbringer! sex singer!
part god, part man, part animal
behold, I'm fucking bold
yeah! yeah! yeah!
rockbringer! cock slinger!
part god, part man, part animal
behold, I'm fucking bold
yeah!

The Strain
05:16
|
|
||
when Greggson found the strain that undid all mankind
he tried his best to just not let it spread
but Greggson was too late, for he had gone half-blind
and so he called the CDC and said:
can't you see what we've got here? i'll repeat if it's not clear
to "wait and see" would be insane!
don't you see what the facts mean? what we need is a vaccine
we need a way to kill the strain
or it could be the end of us
mankind is circling the drain
don't let this be the end of us
after just a week, millions had gone blind
the CDC was nothing but a joke
but Greggson was a geek and so he went online
he hooked his camera up and then he spoke:
people you need to believe me, no this ain't gonna be on your TV
listen to me and i'll explain
it's real bad, as millions of you know, but some of you will be immune though
and your blood can help me cure the strain
or it could be the end of us
mankind is circling the drain
don't let this be the end of us

In the first year, when the darkness fell
'twas man's worst fear brought to life in a living hell
all men lost sight, and the dark ensued
but all men must fight to provide their kind with food
and when a man died in a bloody defeat, his body left behind in the aftermath
other blind men smelled blood in the street
they only wanted meat, they didn't mean to eat...
the blind!
eating the blind eating the blind
it's the blind!
the blind eating the blind the blind eating the blind
on the bright side, a few were still not blind
those with sight tried an attempt to save mankind
but food was scarce and the demand was high
so a fair plan was devised: some live some die
they served up meat ground into a paste and everybody said it was crazy sauce
the blind came to eat, they'd been starving for days
they didn't like the taste but they couldn't quite place...
the blind!
eating the blind eating the blind
it's the blind!
the blind eating the blind the blind eating the blind

Burn On the Water
06:15
|
|
||
we are gathered here today
all thanks to a man who dreamed of a better way
he selected us, protected us, a debt we must repay
so now we hang our heads and pray
well, his name was angus, he was a fucking good man
now just an empty shell, he's gone
though his job was thankless, his vision was fucking grand
and so his memory shall live on
back when the world first went insane
he was the only man who tried to use his brain
he'd provide assistance to the misfits who were resistant to the strain
and he helped us through the pain
so we make a pyre - the best damn pyre we can make
and we place him up on top
and then we light the fire and push it out into the lake
stand back and watch it
burn on the water
burn on the water
burn on the water
from the shore
Angus Greggson was his name
he didn't cause this mess but he shouldered all the blame
he protected us and yet he was infected just the same
and now it's such a fucking shame
so we make a pyre - the best damn pyre we can make
and we place him up on top
and then we light the fire and push it out into the lake
stand back and watch it
burn on the water
burn on the water
burn on the water
from the shore
