2.We Are All We Have

Whoa Whoa ohh we are all we have tonite
the ones you can't control
have only one another to depend upon
displaced from society Outcast we are
we have nothing to live up to

Hey! loud fast music
Hey! sweat and dirt
Hey! sounds from man's soul
Hey! noise of battle
Hey! Black clouds of smoke
Hey! it's time to lose control
COME ON GET UP NOW
Vengeance with our fists
screaming in the air

Whoa ohhhh ohhhh We are all we have tonite
all these joys and sorrow
i gladly sadly bring
this music is all we got
the only place i need
is drinking here tonite
together with you all

Hey! loud fast music

Hey! sound's from man's soul
Hey! noise of battle
Hey! Black clouds of smoke
Hey! it's time to lose control

so let me hear you sing
WE ARE ALL WE HAVE TONITE

Hey! loud fast music
Hey! sweat and dirt
Hey! songs from man's soul
Hey! the only songs we need
Whoa ohhhh ohhhh we are all we have tonite


3.Rise And Fall

A country was born from revolution
we stood for something with a constitution
send us huddled masses, send us prisoners
we overcame the evil of the world
separate the church and state, abolished slavery
somewhere along the line we forgot what we stood for

OH OOH OH RISE AND FALL

innovation, invention, a modern way of thinking
it was hard but we got out of the depression
civil rights, equal rights, improving as a nation
give me your tired, give me your poor, yearning to breathe free
we care about each other, we had it all
or did we fall from the start?
somewhere along the line we forgot what we stood for

OH OOH OH RISE AND FALL

the wretchold refuse that we used to be
came from fallen lands to form our own country
but have we forgot about those who were here
slaughtering innocent natives doesn't seem fair
our modern day leaders with too many laws
our society with too much hate
world police with secret foreign hate
and all you care about is what's on tv

OH OOH OH RISE AND FALL


4.Apocalypse Today

Look at mankind our planet poisoned and diseased
past generations raped it with their greed
yet we still destroy all the oceans and pollute the sky's
what's left for our future, nothing but extinction
drink a glass of water, your drinking acid rain
take a deep breath, polluting in your brain
they fucked up everything, the planet doesn't lie
they fucked up everything, leaving us to die!

Look at our planet, poisoned and diseased
past generations raped it with their greed
they poisoned all the oceans, pollute all the sky's
drink a glass of water, your drinking acid rain
take a deep breath, pollution in your brain
you try to eat healthy, but chemicals don't lie
endangered species dieing one by one
complete global warming, pollution blocks the sun


on our way to hell
no more food to eat, our planet can't survive
we need a real solution to stop this global mess
our planet's getting sicker, it's dieing from the stress
each and every country must give a helping hand


we're on our way
THEY FUCKED UP EVERYTHING
the planet doesn't lie
and we're supposed to die
they filled us with their lies
but i don't wanna lie
i am sick of their lies
we're all gonna die


ON OUR WAY TO HELL!


5.War Is Business

No time to run, permission to go, times running in,
with troops, and bombs, and guns.
From the left and right, people are fighting,
screaming, shooting, fighting, hanging from the ground.

One, two, call the death squad.
War is business, war is business.

Arrogate, fall out, stand in line.

Why do our lives have to go with indecisions,
we have permission to take, to decide, to fight!
More and more fighting its making me sick.
We fought with them, the rich don't have to fight.

One two call the death squad,
War is business, war is business.

Death squad, collision, finish this.

As long as we are here you wont need to worry,
just close your eyes, decide, think on your own.
Can you hear bodies their fucking dead in the streets,
just close your eyes, and you will think and see.

One two call the death squad,
War is business, war is business.

Arrogate, fall out, stand in line


6.In The Tombs

4 AM on a cold night
I find myself, empty bottle in hand
Out with a friend, we're singing alone
About the things that are going wrong
Singing out loud about this world
The messed up life, the struggles we've fought
I hear sirens, bright lights in my eyes
Without warning, I've been attacked
They grab me by the hair
Then threw me against the wall
They hit me in the back
My ribs went pop
They smashed me in the head
It was as though as lead
They kick me in the knee
I started to bleed

What the hell have I done?
What the hell?
I'm in the tombs tonight

I took one in the eye, I wouldn't cry
They punched me in the mouth, I started to shout
I took one in the chin, I began to spin
They started to laugh
I decided to fight back!

What the hell have I done?
What the hell?
I'm in the tombs tonight

Drunk & disorderly is the fucking charge
We find ourselves behind these bars
The only thing that we ever did wrong
Was to sing this oppressed man's song!

What the hell have I done?
What the hell?
I'm in the tombs tonight

Now my life has been stamped
My life, my future in their hands
The only thing that I did wrong
Was to sing this working man's song!

1 2
Working man songs
That's all we got
Music from the heart
Lyrics from the streets
All my life, I've been stamped
All my future in their hands
What I did, nothing wrong
Only singing a working man's song!
You can take my money, never steal my pride
You can try to copy it
You'll never succeed


7.Stand Against Them All

Behind the song you love
There's a story you wont forget
I'm like a flag in an open space
I can sense the wind ahead

I'm a difficult person
Life has made me so
When trouble comes around
I will never run

I STAND FOR YOU, YOU STAND FOR ME
TOGETHER WE STAND AGAINST THEM ALL

We are like an outfit
That's getting thin and bleached
But we can last forever
Compare to those I've seen

And I con see the storm
I am the troubled sea
He gale is on our bow
But we won't turn away

I STAND FOR YOU, YOU STAND FOR ME
TOGETHER WE STAND AGAINST THEM ALL

Destructive nature we have
But grew more aware
And trust me, we won't stumble
Believe me, we won't fall

Who's gonna stand in the crossfire
When trouble comes ahead?
The harder they attack us
The harder they will fall!

If trouble comes along
Don't worry about that
When trouble come to attack
We sill fight them back
We'll counterattack
If trouble won't get back
We will drive them back

I STAND FOR YOU, YOU STAND FOR ME
TOGETHER WE STAND AGAINST THEM ALL


8.Depression - Unemployment Lines

DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE Nowhere to work
DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE Nowhere to live
DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE We're all alone
DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE Because of
DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE

Most children are told they can do it all
and be what they want when they grow old
but we knew better plain guys like me
what's the point of dreaming we'll only be controlled
JUSTICE & LIBERTY What's the point of dreaming
TAKEN FROM YOU & ME We'll only be controlled
JUSTICE & LIBERTY What's the point of thinking
NO JUSTICE NO LIBERTY

Years later you'll do anything
to make a living and to stay alive
washing dishes, cleaning cars taking any job
never have a feeling of safety or control
JUSTICE & LIBERTY Now I'm left wondering
TAKEN FROM YOU & ME How to make a buck
JUSTICE & LIBERTY I find my self lost
NO JUSTICE NO LIBERTY

DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE My broken back
DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE My mind is lost
DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE My dirty clothes
DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE Because of
DEPRESSION, UNEMPLOYMENT LINE

A confused and a hopeless state
that's driving people to desperate lengths
being nothing but professionally poor
a broken man, always covered in dirt
JUSTICE & LIBERTY How much can i take
JUSTICE & LIBERTY How much can i endure
JUSTICE & LIBERTY before i explode
NO JUSTICE NO LIBERTY


9.Looking Thru Bloodshot Eyes

Fearful anxieties Increasing pain
my trembling hands can no longer sustain
I'm on the edge, I need to escape
the liquid enchant, I must embrace
ice cold beer flowing down my throat
detached, withdrawn, I feel remote
the creeping chill flows into my veins
mind and soul still tied with chains
MIND AND SOUL, TIED WITH CHAINS

I tell you
I never wanted it to be this way
I never wanted to impress
It finally arrives, the comfort of the place
rejected reason, courage, disgrace
It's possible my soul is okay
but i can't make my heart stand straight
only one thing left in this space
that will go dark and then light again
self acceptance the alcohol ignites
don't come to disturb my delight
WE'ER STILL TIED WITH CHAINS

The poison pushes them creeps inside my mind
Thoughts no longer mine worry s left behind
spinning head I got no control
foggy memories lurking in my soul
MIND AND SOUL, TIED WITH CHAINS
WE'RE ALL FALLING INLINE
TOXIC LIFE JUST A WAY TO GET BY
LOOKING THOUGH BLOOD SHOT EYES
MIND AND SOUL STILL TIED WITH CHAINS
MIND AND SOUL TIED WITH CHAINS


10.Lonely On The Streets - Jersey City

Woo ooh, we stand alone,
Woo ohh, it's lonely on the streets tonight

I'll tell you about a place, where the poor write their songs
I'll tell you about a place, rent is cheap but dangerous
Like a stepping razor everyone is a threat,
Better have eyes in the back of your head
The crew in Jersey City won't put down their guns,
The boys on Newark Avenue they will cut you down
The punks in Jersey City ripped up boots dressed in black
The boys are all downtown getting drunk and always tough

Brought across the river, NYC kicked out the poor
This is the new jungle the rich found out, it won't last long
A haven for the artists low income and scum
Our town is full of gangs and rats, the filthiest place I have
been
Drugs in the bodega stores, they deliver don't have to tip
Eight year olds running in gangs, beating up people just for fun
Robbing, murder just a fun day in my town
Police are ex gang members, our mayor just gets drunk
City officials go to jail, opportunities for everyone
The crime is very high, but the rent is very cheap
Junkies, killers, oh the city I live in

Hey!

They chase me from my hometown, I moved here to survive
I'll be very lucky, if I get out alive.


11.Life Clone

Too many people spend their lives watching their TV
they're all lifetime clones with plastic surgery
I'll tell you who they are you know who I mean
They're tanning in the booth and working in the gym

LIFE CLONE OBSESSED WITH BRANDS
LIFE CLONE BOMBARDED WITH STUFF
LIFE CLONE THEY DON'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE
LIFE CLONE THEIR BRAIN IS GONE

The system that we live in destroyed the youth within
turned them into spoiled brats drugged on riddling
kids at age ten weigh 200 pounds
if they commit a crime daddy bails them out
off to spring break and paid for our future in their hands

LIFE CLONE OBSESSED WITH BRANDS
LIFE CLONE BOMBARDED WITH STUFF
LIFE CLONE THEY DON'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE
LIFE CLONE THEIR BRAIN IS GONE

the system sends a message to the kids of today
you're easy to control you have no time to think
copying personalities from a magazine
spend a fortune of this country
is all in your hands

LIFE CLONE OBSESSED WITH BRANDS
LIFE CLONE BOMBARDED WITH STUFF
LIFE CLONE THEY DON'T KNOW WHO THEY ARE
LIFE CLONE THEIR BRAIN IS GONE


12.Clockwork

There's a place in town
The biggest dump
When life is hard
I always go
We try so hard to leave this hell
Always the same
We're back here again

Clockwork - Life is like clockwork
Vicious circle
Always go to lucky 7
Life will be alright

What goes up must come down
That's part of life
It's always been
We try so hard to leave this hell
At lucky 7 everything's ok

Clockwork - Life is like clockwork
Vicious circle
Always go to lucky 7
Life will be alright

I work so hard to pay the rent
I buy some food, my money's spent
I count my change just to survive
By Sunday night, I need to work again

Clockwork - Life is like clockwork
Vicious circle
Always go to lucky 7
Life will be alright

When times are tough
And there's no hope
When life is fucked
You gotta hold yourself up


13.Heart Bleeds Black


14.Rockers' Reggae (Working Man's Dub)

But couldn't steal these working man songs
You can keep your shitty tour
You can keep your dance shit
But you'll never get these working man songs
Pop fucking stars glam fucking metal
Their emo shit they'll never feel it
They don't know what is needed
These days times and days, what we need
Is more working man songs
Up the punks for working man songs
Over thirty years buffering
Calling me a poser i'm still here
Living, screaming, working man songs
Get it in your head it's my life
In it for life i'm in it for life
Punk rock songs working man songs
All right.
