1. DEAD AGAIN

The first to admit - I'm a doomed drug addict
And I always will be - hey man, don't follow me
No excuse for drug abuse
Said these lines a thousand times
Don't want to live atrial fib - from neurosis, cerosis

Please make me smile - if you learn from my trial
Baby I'll pay this price - maybe saving your life for ya
I can't state this point enough
The pickup's easy, but the put down's rough
Up the nose or tap a vein - no one else but you to blame

I can't believe I died last night - oh God I'm dead again
I can't believe I died last night - I'm fucking dead again

Chemical joy turning thee paranoid
Recently buried deep Greenwood Cemetery, now
I had no pulse last time I checked
I'd trade my life for self respect
So I say with my ass whipped
There are some things worse than death

I can't believe I died last night - oh God I'm dead again
I can't believe I died last night - I'm fucking dead again


2. TRIPPING A BLIND MAN

Say the word and I'll be healed
opened eyes grease my wheels
Since my vision's be restored

Trip me once shame on you
Trip me twice I'm the fool
Thought it's hidden I've been cured

Patience is divine but the virtue is not mine
Turn you cheek gets ripped off
That's why God gave us four

This is how you spend life
Amused by another's strife
Makes me so sad and confused
Someone's pain you leisure
Can't explain sick pleasure
I'm so glad I'm not you

Patience is divine but the virtue is not mine
Turn you cheek gets ripped off
That's why God gave us four

Throwing wrenches gave a false sense of power
What started sweet will soon turn sour
You think it's your place to dispense justice
Well I've been sent to judge the judges

God damn love 'cause it's breaking my heart
And if I had one wish I'd see in the dark

Tripping a blind man so easy to do
Tripping a blind man why can't it be you?

You want to play God and I know you will
If that's the case I'll be the devil

Now who the fuck are you to discipline me
Innocence condemned by the guilty?

God damn love 'cause it's breaking my heart
And if I had one wish I'd see in the dark

Tripping a blind man so easy to do
Tripping a blind man why can't it be you?

Losing his grip of his seeing eye dog's spikey collar
Panicking, the startled pet ran to the street
Sanitation truck skidding unable to stop
Shoveled up what was left of his canine spot

As they left, the ground turned muddy crimson
Where's my mutt? The victim requested
EMS responded “he had to say bye”
Teary eyed, the old man cried then died

Patience is divine but the virtue is not mine
Turn your cheek gets ripped off
That's why God gave us four


3. THE PROFITS OF DOOM

Goodbye cruel world...

Of this shape a star of five
Also applies to the one with six sides
Against the sun and against the moon
I warn you that these two combined
Will bring man's doom
Of ten horns and seven heads
Count your fingers and the continents
On your head or in you right hand
This new moral code that the media commands

Believe not in their clever words
Because faith inacted are the loudest heard
All these things I say are true
Understood sadly by a chosen few... you

April 2-0-2-9 the final time
The end my friend in not near the hour in fact is quite here
When the moon becomes red to guide the risen dead
This means God's turned his back on you
It's a Friday the 13th of course you won't live to see noon

I am a prophet of doom
I am the profit of doom

So now the star has fallen washing away the seas
The seventh seal now opens it's raining your fears
Are you paranoid the coming asteroid
Has got your name tattooed on it
This stone's called Apophis it brings Apocalypse

I am a prophet of doom
I am the profit of doom

Speak the name of He created thee all to be which should not be spoken
No laws broken

Now life and love the stars above which fall upon thee all that worship the beast
Influence ceased

My soul's on fire

My faith is an amber burning ever working towards a greater reward
Serving my Lord

Built his home upon the rock not of the flock but coming as a shepherd
Guarding his herd

My soul's on fire


4. SEPTEMBER SUN

September sun glowing golden hair
Now keep in mind son she was never there
October's rust bisecting black storm clouds
Only the deaf hear my silent shouts

Yet in the dark still he screams your name
Nights living death with witch rhymes insane
Ten years amassed para toda mi vida?
Lost man in time was his name Peter

September sun rotted Flatbush porch
I would have run then had I known the cost
Autumnal rays turned your eyes to stone
Did it give you pleasure to steal my soul?

Leave her alone
I said leave her alone

Me? I know why


5. HALLOWEEN IN HEAVEN

The dead they got that morbid beat it goes deo deo
They dance upon decaying feet with their black toes oh no
Heaven, Limbo and Hell - purgatory oh well oh well

Halloween in Heaven - it's Christmas in Hell
Halloween in Heaven oh well oh well

The devil stole a yule tree decorated with souls
Jesus trick or treating as him below
Heaven, Limbo and Hell - purgatory oh well oh well

Halloween in Heaven - it's Christmas in Hell
Halloween in Heaven oh well oh well

Bonham on drums, Entwistle on bass as guest morticians
Bon Scott on vox, Rhoads just for kicks, on guitar Hendrix
Lennon sits in with his friend George but where is Morrison?

Of course I cried when I heard they'd died and took a part of me
Same time gave from beyond the grave became what was to be

Elvis ain't dead so he isn't here party never ends
Demon roadies, angel groupies, suicide losers
If only I'd known how cool death is I'd have killed myself sooner

Of harps and choirs, pumpkin pine pyres, flames of red and green
Orange and black, years take me back - Christmas or Halloween

Halloween in Heaven - it's Christmas in Hell
Halloween in Heaven oh well oh well


6. THESE THREE THINGS

The child is torn from the womb unbaptised
There's no question it's infanticide
I'm guilty so therefore condemned
Destroying angels must come to an end
Now in Limbo deprived of paradise not so nice

At the end I'll escort you to hell
The dark one's forces lock your flaming cell
To murder the one's unborn
The worst sin you've ever performed
There are two other things I must tell know them well

With due respect hear these words of caution
If considering and abortion
If you did boiling sulphur
To which I will not concur
Leading to a path of misfortune no one won

Of a land, land that shuns the son
So alien call it area 5-1
Should there be failure to convert Zion?
What came as a lamb returning as a lion

Not a nation but a self proclaimed state
Since the year of our Lord 1-9-4-8
The road to redemption leads to through deserts
Rocky though the trip through is well worth it

I am the duel of the fisherman Simon
He brought alpha, omega, yes I'm the one
The twins fell beginning Armageddon
So the whore too who dwelleth in Babylon

All his people gathered round - through forgiveness salvation found


7. SHE BURNED ME DOWN

She burned me down, down to the ground

Blood - though thicker than water - is harder to clean up
You'll get it in the end boy if the weapon of choice is love
Expecting it from a stranger or maybe an acquaintance
Never from family or friends though a simple mistake and expense

She burned me down, down to the ground

Pissed and disappointed I prey to learn to forgive
If I can't find it in my heart then I have no reason to live

Here is an education - the lesson professed is quite cruel
There are some things worse the death and one of them is you

Every time I see her start a fire I get higher


8. SOME STUPID TOMORROW

I can't play God forgiveness is hard
Forgiving also hard too
I have my orders
Blood's thicker than water
Though much harder to clean up

IOI in on it, IOI in on it - never forget

Punching in walls to prove I've got balls
Only got me busted knuckles
Therapy is slow
And jail is a no
A rotting tit on which I suckle

IOI in on it, IOI in on it - never forget

Some stupid tomorrow - some stupid today
Some stupid tomorrow - go away, go away
Yesterday


9. AN ODE TO LOCKSMITHS

Been given the keys I knew I'd receive
Be careful what you're asking for
Thy rod and thy staff simply twelve toned math
An earful opening all doors

Simon the roman gone fission for man
If you're caught is to be freed
Come open your lock by using a rock
Or sowing the proper seeds

Woe to thee all woman of land, air and sea
Adam was the serpent apple 'tween his knees
Seduced by a snake worshiped by nations
Banished forth, from Eden it's the male who is Satan

From the tree of knowledge (a metaphor for sex)
Plucked a ripened globs of fruit that of her innocence
Since forbidden resisted forcing her to taste
Now I know why girls hate boys 'cause Eve was in fact raped

We ain't going home - got nowhere to go


10. HAIL AND FAREWELL TO BRITAIN

Once upon a slime I thought you royalty
I would never have questioned your loyalty
Don't act so surprised, saw through you disguise
But with friends like you free from my enemies

Up until recently never had a clue
In a way I must admit I pity you
I'm through with you kind, 'cause you've wasted my time
Please do not release them, Lord knows what they do

I can't believe how cruel life is
Emotional blackmail makes me sick, oh so sick

Who is to blame for constant shame on you
These words I use don't confuse with cool
This misfortune not lost but won deserved
Choosing is hard careful which God you serve

Traitors many, surrounding me cowards
Conspiracy so clear to see flowers
We were brothers ‘til discovered deceit
Tried with treason that's the reason you're beat

I can't believe how cruel life is
Emotional blackmail makes me sick, oh so sick

All hail and farewell to Britain, all hail and farewell to thee
All hail and farewell to England, all hail and farewell to me


DVD (LIVE AT WACKEN 2007)

1. ANESTHESIA

Like a flash of light in an endless night
Life is trapped between two black entities
'Cause when you trust someone, illusion has begun
No way to prepare, impending despair

Did one say so cruel: "Tis better to love than lose"
Ignorance is bliss - wish not knew your kiss
So many times been burned, this lesson goes unlearned
Remember desire only fuels the fire - liar

Betwixed birth and death, every breath regret
I pity the living, envy for the dead
Emotionally stunned, in defense, I'm numb
I'd rather not care than to be aware - be scared

I don't need love

Are a thousand tears worth a single smile?
When you give an inch, will they take a mile?
Longing for the past but dreading the future
If not being used, well then you're a user and a loser

World reknowned failure at both death and life
Given nothingness, purgatory blight
To run and hide, a cowardly procedure
Options exhausted, except for anesthesia - anesthesia

I don't feel anything.


2. CHRISTIAN WOMAN

A cross upon her bedroom wall.
From grace she will fall.
An image burning in her mind.
And between her thighs.

A dying God-man full of pain.
When will you cum again?
Before him beg to serve or please.
On your back or knees.
There's no forgiveness for her sins.
Prefers punishment?
Would you suffer eternally.
Or internally?

For her lust.
She'll burn in hell.
Her soul done medium well.
All through mass manual stimulation.
Salvation.

Body of Christ.
She needs.
The body of Christ.

She'd like to know God.
Ooh love God.
Feel her God.
Inside of her - deep inside of her.

Jesus Christ looks like me.


3. LOVE YOU TO DEATH

In her place one hundred candles burning
As salty sweat drips from her breast
Her hips move and I can feel what they're saying, swaying
They say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya, get ya, get...
Black lipstick stains her glass of red wine
I am your servant, may I light your cigarette?
Those lips smooth, yeah I can feel what you're saying, praying
They say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya, get ya, get...
I beg to serve, your wish is my law
Now close those eyes and let me love you to death
Shall I prove I mean what I'm saying, begging
I say the beast inside of me's gonna get ya, get ya, get...
Let me love you too
Let me love you to death
Hey am I good enough
For you?
Hey am I good enough
For you?
Am I?
Am I?
Am I good enough
For you?


4. KILL YOU TONIGHT

I got a pickaxe in the trunk of my car
I’ll put it on the grinder to get it real sharp
There’s an ugly green monster in my head
Won’t leave me alone
Until you’re dead

I called your house but you couldn’t be reached
So I took the d train to Brighton beach
You’re doing the thing with a brand new man
Checking out the stars
Screwing on the sand

Kill you
Kill you
I’ll fucking kill you

So I took some steroids and adrenaline
Finlandia vodka and hallucinagens
Mixed it with blood and orange juice
Liquid protein and ice cubes
