The Avengers Avengers Lyrics
1.We Are The One

Lyricist:Penelope Houston, Greg Ingragam, Daniel O'brien, James Wilsey

We are the leaders of tomorrow
We are the ones to have the fun
We want control, we want the power
Not gonna stop until it comes

We are not Jesus Christ
We are not fascist pigs
We are not capitalist industrialists
We are not communists, we are the one

We will build a better tomorrow
The youth of today will be the tool
American children made for survival
Fate and our destiny we shall rule

We are not Jesus Christ
We are not fascist pigs
We are not capitalist industrialists
We are not communists, we are the one

I am the one who brings you the future
I am the one who buries the past
A new species rises up from the ruins
I am the one who is made to last


2.Car Crash

I was sitting at home all alone,
hear a voice on the telephone
telling me that you're dead
you wrecked your car,
you lost your head!
I dreamt you had a crash,
now you're dead on the road
with your head smashed
heard the news it can't be true
aw what happened to you
whoah-o-whoah-uh-o, no,na whoah-o-whoah-uh-o,no,na
whoah-o-whoah-uh-o,no,na whoah-o-whoah-uh-o

you didn't listen to what I said
look at you baby

I dreamt you had a crash,
now you're dead on


3.I Believe In Me

I BELIEVE IN ME
I believe in me
I make my dreams real
I believe in me
I believe in me verses:ad lib


4.Open Your Eyes

at first I thought you were dead
but now I see you're on of the rest
they drugged you with musak and tv sedation
you're one of the blank generation
open your eyes, open your eyes
you don't see what's going on come on,
open your eyes, open your eyes
you watch tv to find out
what's right and wrong,
yeah open your eyes well,
they tell you lies and you sing along
open your eyes to what you respected
open your eyes you can reject it
I want to upset you,
want to make you think
but you eat all their shit it makes your breath stink
gonna get a job and join a fucking union that way,
you know, nothing¹s gonna happen
open your eyes, open your eyes
you don't see what's going on come on,
open your eyes, open your eyes
you watch tv to find out what's right and wrong,
yeah open your eyes well,
they tell you lies and you sing along
open your eyes to what you respected

5.No Martyr

I am not the lamb
I am not jesus
I am not ready to sacrifice my innocence
I am not ready to talk to you about politics
I am not ready to taste your corruption
I don't want your money
or your fame and fortune no,
you mean nothing to me
I don't need you
I know you look at me and say
'here's something I can use, abuse'
but, i'm not going for it i'm innocent and i'm young
but i'm not so naive that i'd fall for it
I don't want your money or your record contract
fame and fortune no, you can keep them
I don't need the money that you
want to give me want to use me,
no don't look to me to be your jesus christ
I'm not here for your superficial sacrifice
want to use my youth and my innocence
trying to make a fool of me are you?
you never get me you'll never use me
I'll never be a martyr for you
no it's not worth it won't spill my blood for you
I don't need you I don't want you I don't want you...
I'm no martyr for you


6.Desperation

Gotta get out of here
Nothing for me here
Nothing to do, nowhere to go
No words to say, no thoughts to think
Oooooo I'm leaving. The pressure building up on me,
the air is really thick.
Can't breathe. I'm leaving.
I'm running, I'm running, running out of time
Out of breath and out of desperation.
Now you see me, now you don't
Can't stay here much longer
Situation I've been making for myself
Can't take it, I'm leaving, I'm running
I'm running, catch my freedom
..Now you see me
But I won't be here for long.
I gotta get out, out from under you
(What are you trying to make me do?)
I'm running, I'm running
Gotta get out, gotta catch my freedom
I'm running, I'm running
Running out of desperation
Gotta get out and catch my freedom
Gotta get what I can
See I'm running
Out of desperation.


7.Thin White Line

Lyricist:Penelope Houston, Greg Ingraham, Daniel O Brien, James Wilsey

I'm riding on a thin white line
Standing in the doorway of cloud nine
And you see me in the window
Of a chauffeured limousine

You see me on the TV
Radio and the magazine
Don't ask me how I feel
Or if I'm coming home

You say, 'Don't go, don't go
Don't go to Babylon'
Well, hey Joe, I'm already there

You can hear me for a million miles
I'm surrounded by a thousand dials
And what I want to see
Is a million more of me

Black plastic discs going round
And round and round and round
Don't ask me why I changed
I never did

You say 'Don't go, don't go
Don't go to Babylon'
Well, hey Joe, I'm already there

I'm flying on a thin white line
Standing in the doorway of what's mine
Please, don't you try and stop me from going in

Don't talk about the blood
Running down my chin
Don't ask me how I feel
'Cause I feel fine

You say 'Don't go, don't go
Don't go to Babylon'
Well, hey Joe, I'm already there


8.Money Money


9.Paint It Black

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and theyre all painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a new born baby it just happens evry day
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then Ill fade away and not have to face the facts
Its not easy facin up when your whole world is black

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the settin sun
My love will laugh with me before the mornin comes

I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm,...
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah!


10.The American In Me

It's the American in me that makes me watch the blood
running out of the bullethole in his head.
It's the American in me that makes me watch TV
see on the news, listen what the man said.
He said,

'Ask not what you can do for your country
what's your country been doing to you
Ask not what you can do for your country
what's your country been doing to your mind?'

It's the American in me that makes me says it an honor to die
in a war that's just a politicians lie
It's the American in me that makes me watch TV
see how they burn the SLA
They say

'Ask not what you can do for your country
what's your country been doing to you?
Ask not what you can do for your country
what's your country been doing to you?'

In the USA!
In the USA!
In the USA!

It's the American in me that makes me watch the blood
running out of the bullethole in his head.
It's the American in me that never wonders why
Kennedy was murdered by the FBI

'Ask not what you can do for your country
what's your country been doing to you?
Ask not what you can do for your country
what's your country been doing to you?...


11.White Nigger

Lyricist:Penelope Houston, Greg Ingraham, Daniel O Brien, James Wilsey

Well, you don't know what you want
Working everyday in your restaurant
Your life is slipping out of control
Lose your job, gonna lose your soul

Now boy, young and white
So you wanna make it bigger
Boy, you better watch your step
White nigger

When you were young you had such big plans
Such big ambitions, gonna be a good man
I say look at you now, oh what a coward
Living your life but you don't know how to live

Boy
(Little boy)
Young and white, so you try to make it bigger
Boy
You just don't understand do you, white nigger?

Work like a devil, work like a dog
Where does it get you, where do you go? Ooh
Work for the money, work for the show
Work for the people that you don't know

I see you driving around in your car
Pretend you're not what you really are
Just look in the mirror, look in your eyes
What you discover will be no surprise

Something is missing, something's wrong
You got your money but something's gone
Something you had right from the start
You should have listened to your heart

Work like a dog, work like a slave
Work like a devil, and what have you made ohh no, no, no
Work like a dog, work nine five
Working, shaking his hand, you're staying alive ohh no, no
Where you gonna go?

Work, work every day
Work your life away and sure it pays
But where does it get you, where are you now?
Come on, white nigger


12.Uh-Oh

Lyricist:Penelope Houston, Greg Ingraham, Daniel O Brien, James Wilsey

Who is that girl you see running down the alley?
She's all dressed in white, must be an escapee
Ooh, but she's beautiful just like a dream
And you're so hungry for some honey and cream, yeah

Oh, she's a mystery
You gotta get into her fantasies
So you run around the corner just to see what you can see
And there she is saying don't you follow me, oh no

She's got a smile like a knife in her teeth
And you've got a pressure problem with your sweaty hands, yeah
I've got my business got no time for you
Going to a wedding getting married to myself

I am a mystery
You better check it with your fantasies
Don't you try to put nothing on me
'Cause if you do I'm gonna make you very sorry you did

Oh-oh-oh-uh-uh-oh
Don't you want me?
Oh-oh-oh-uh-uh-oh
Don't you follow me

Oh-oh-oh-uh-uh-oh
Don't you want me?
Oh-oh-oh-uh-uh-oh
The answer is no

Yeah, I'm a mystery
You better check it with your fantasies
Don't you try to put nothing on me
'Cause if you do I'm gonna make you very sorry you did

Oh-oh-oh-uh-uh-oh
Sex shooter

Oh-oh-oh-uh-uh-oh
Don't you follow me

Oh-oh-oh-uh-uh-oh
Don't you want me?
Oh-oh-oh-uh-uh-oh
The answer is no


13.Second To None

Lyricist:Penelope Houston, Greg Ingraham, Daniel O Brien, James Wilsey

Getting dirty on my hands and knees
I live like an animal and now I got fleas
When I do what I do it's a sin
But I like my parties soaked in gin

What's the use of saying what you mean?
Just watch yourself and keep your body clean
Mom says I got a dirty face
Dad says I'm looking out of place
Dog says I got shit on my shoes
What am I supposed to do?

Well, that's one, I'm second to none
And that's two, I don't know what to do
And that's three, you're telling me

I'm still a baby, you say act like I live in a zoo
I know I don't wanna live like you
When I go out, you won't let me back in
Climb in the window, I just can't win

What's the use in saying what you mean?
Just wash yourself and keep your body clean
Mom says I gotta dirty face
Dad says I'm looking out of place
Dog says I got shit on my shoes
What am I supposed to do?

Well, that's one, I'm second to none
And that's two, I don't know what to do
And that's three, you're telling me


14.Cheap Tragedies

The doors flew open and the people crowded in
They said, we can't wait for your show to start
And their bodies flew the only way they knew
They're coming straight for the center of my heart

I see your face and i've memorized it
I see your life, i recognize all your petty jealousies
Your hidden tragedies, your bitter memories
They'll be the death of you yet, oh
They'll be the death of you yet, oh

Now you look down and there's blood on your hands
And your frustration went out of control
Well, it's your nightmare and it's your life
Go on home now, go to bed, go to sleep and dream

You see your face don't you even recognize it?
You see your life you¹ve memorized all those petty jealousies
Those hidden tragedies, those bitter memories
They'll be the death of you yet, oh
They'll be the death of you yet, oh
They'll be the death of you yet

You see your face don't you even recognize it?
You see your life you've memorized all those petty jealousies
Those hidden tragedies, those bitter memories
They'll be the death of you yet, oh
They'll be the death of you yet, oh
They'll be the death of you yet, oh
They'll be the death of you yet, oh
They'll be the death of you yet


15.Corpus Christi

In The beginning there was a void except for the written word
I was born in such foolish times my guilt is guaranteed
Now I don't want to burn in hell, John told me that I would
Unless I went down to the water my sins purged in his holy blood

See how they run
Sheep to the fold
See how they fall
Corpse from the Cross

Now I've got my bleeding heart and I wear my crown of thorns
and argue with the old men about the tapestry was torn
I 've got to sacrafice my ego it's such a small price to pay
I'm waiting for the resurrection. Gonna find out what christ
would say

See how they run
Sheep to the fold
See how they fall
Corpse from the Cross

See how they run
Sheep to the fold
See how they fall
Corpse from the Cross

Read another bible story I've got to find the truth
Sending loads of telegrams to God prove my faith is absolute
Going down down on my knees and pray maybe I'll buy a talisman
Somethings got to save me
On the Judgement Day

See how they run
Sheep to the fold
See how they fall
Corpse from the Cross

See how they run
Sheep to the fold
See how they fall
Corpse from the Cross


16.Fuck You

Maybe the world's a mess
