He's the one, he likes all our pretty songs,
And he likes to sing along,
And he likes to shoot his gun,
But he knows not what it means.
Knows not what it means when I say...

We can have some more.
Nature is a whore.
Bruises on the fruit.
Tender age in bloom.

Chill, light on my sight as my ego becomes
A funky child with some words on my tongue
Be like intake of breath and my mouth gets loose
So while I scatter my spit, I dream of juice
Have you ever made out in dark hallways
Displayed a kiss that made your day or say
Played a track from your record collection
It's your mix, congratulations

We've changed a lot and then some, some
You know that we have always been down, down
If I ever didn't thank you, you
Then just let me do it now

I bet you light up when we start the show
Follow me now very closely 'cuz I told you so
You know, we glow because we throw sun rays
Yeah we be freaky and we wanna stay

We've changed a lot and then some, some
You know that we have always been down, down
If I ever didn't thank you, you
Then just let me do it now

Lightning strikes, yo we be in that violent force of light
Guaranteed to turn it out as bad as dolemite
Because we're dope kid, change like a chameleon
And the channel whenever the wack show Real World is on
You know we dazzle like ghetto box boomin' battles
Rattle inside your head feel redeemed like cola bottles
Fall in love with your teachers, on the wax we are self made
Check the technique, 311 in L.A.

We've changed a lot and then some, some
You know that we've always been down, down
If I ever didn't thank you, you
Then just let me do it now

Keep my feet on the ground
Keep my head in the clouds
Electrified by the sound
Comes from the down, and
We've changed a lot and then some, some
You know that we've always been down, down
If I ever didn't thank you, you
Then just let me do it now

UH!

The movie ran through me
The glamour subdue me
The tabloid untie me
I'm empty please fill me
Mister anchor assure me
That Baghdad is burning
Your voice it is so soothing
That cunning mantra of killing
I need you my witness
To dress this up so bloodless
To numb me and purge me now
Of thoughts of blaming you
Yes the car is our wheelchair
My witness your coughing
Oily silence mocks the legless
Ones who travel now in coffins
On the corner
The jury's sleepless
We found your weakness
And it's right outside your door
Now testify

Now testify
It's right outside your door
Now testify
Yes testify
It's right outside your door

With precision you feed me
My witness I'm hungry
Your temple it calms me
So I can carry on
My slaving sweating the skin right off my bones
On a bed of fire I'm choking on the smoke that fills my home
The wrecking ball is rushing
Witness your blushing
The pipeline is gushing
While here we lie in tombs
While on the corner
The jury's sleepless
We found your weakness
And it's right outside your door

Now testify
Yeah testify
It's right outside your door
Now testify
Now testify
It's right outside your door

Mass graves for the pump and the price is set (and the price is set)
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set (and the price is set)
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set (and the price is set)
Mass graves for the pump and the price is set (and the price is set)

Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now controls the past
Who controls the past now controls the future
Who controls the present now?

Now testify
Testify
It's right outside your door
Now testify
Testify
It's right outside your door

*Lyrics in parentheses sung by Jen Ledger.
I'm just a step away,
I'm a just a breath away;
Losin my faith today,
(Falling off the edge today!)

I am just a man,
Not superhuman;
(I'm not superhuman!)
Someone save me from the hate;

It's just another war,
Just another family torn;
(I'm falling from my faith today!)
Just a step from the edge,
Just another day in the world we live;

I need a Hero,
To save me now!
I need a Hero!
(Save me now!)
I need a Hero,
To save my life!
A Hero'll save me!
(Just in time!)

I gotta fight today,
To live another day;
Speakin' my mind today,
(My voice will be heard today!)

I've gotta make a stand,
But I am just a man;
(I'm not superhuman!)
My voice will be heard today!

It's just another war,
Just another family torn;
(My voice will be heard today!)
It's just another kill,
The countdown begins to destroy ourselves!

I need a Hero,
To save me now!
I need a Hero!
(Save me now!)
I need a Hero,
To save my life!
A Hero'll save me!
(Just in time!)
I need a Hero,
To save my life!
I need a Hero!
Just in time!

Save me just in time...
Save me just in time...

Who's gonna fight for what's right,
Who's gonna help us survive,
We're in the fight of our lives!
(And we're not ready to die!)

Who's gonna fight for the weak,
Who's gonna make 'em believe,
I've got a Hero!
(I've got a Hero!)
Livin' in me!

I'm gonna fight for what's right,
Today I'm speaking my mind,
And if it kills me tonight,
(I will be ready to die!)

A Hero's not afraid to give His life,
A Hero's gonna save me just in time!

I need a Hero,
To save me now!
I need a Hero!
(Save me now!)
I need a Hero,
To save my life!
A Hero'll save me!
(Just in time!)

I need a Hero!
Who's gonna fight for what's right,
Who's gonna help us survive!

I need a Hero!
Who's gonna fight for the weak,
Who's gonna make 'em believe!

I need a Hero!
I need a Hero!

A Hero's gonna save me,
Just in time!

Memories are just where you laid them
Drag the waters 'till the depths give up their dead
What did you expect to find?
Was there something you left behind?
Don't you remember anything I said when I said

Don't fall away, and leave me to myself
Don't fall away and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding

Oh hold me now I feel contagious
Am I the only place that you've left to go
She cries her life is like
Some movie black and white
Dead actors faking lines
Over and over and over again she cries

Don't fall away, and leave me to myself
Don't fall away, and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding

And I wanted
You turned away
You don't remember, but I do
You never even tried

Don't fall away and leave me to myself
Don't fall away and leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands again
Leave love bleeding
In my hands, in my hands
Love lies bleeding

So many things, I didn't say
Is it too late
Now that you've gone away
So many words, so many ways
If you can hear me now
There's something I've gotta say

Just one more talk
Just one more touch
Just once too much, then

I just wanna say
Thank you, for everything
You've ever done for me
(Done for me)
I just wanna say
Thank you, for all the things
For saving me
(Saving me)

So many times, so many days
You helped me through
Walked me through the rain
So many tears, have washed away
If you can hear my voice
There's something I have to say

Just one more talk
Just one more touch
Just once too much, then

I just wanna say
Thank you, for everything
You've ever done for me
(Done for me)
I just wanna say
Thank you, for all the things
For saving me
(Saving me)

It's been so long
They say time will heal everything
Could you send me a sign
To fill this whole in my life

Turn on a light
To help me see through it all
Noone left to rescue me
Save me!

-Solo-

Just one more talk
Just one more touch
Just once too much, then

I just wanna say
Thank you, for everything
You've ever done for me
(Done for me)
I just wanna say
Thank you, for all the things
For saving me
(Saving me)

I just wanna say
Thank you, mother
Thank you, father
Thank you, sister
(Saving me)
I just wanna say
Thank you, brother
Thank you, daughter
All my best friends

You wake up late for school man you don't wanna go
You ask you mom, "Please?" but she still says "No!"
You missed two classes and no homework
But your teacher preaches class like you're some kind of jerk

You gotta fight
For your right
To paaaaaaaaaaaaaarty

You pop caught you smoking and he said "no way"
That hypocrite smokes two packs a day
Man, living at home is such a drag
Now your mom threw away your best porno mag
(Busted!)

You gotta fight
For your right
To paaaaaaaaaaaaaarty

You gotta fight

Don't step out of this house if that's the clothes you're gonna wear
I'll kick you out of my home if you don't cut that hair
Your mom busted in and said "What's that noise?"
Aw, mom you're just jealous; it's the Beastie Boys

You gotta fight
For your right
To paaaaaaaaaaaaaarty

PAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRTY
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarty

End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear
Sucking darkest clear
Feeding on your death's construction

Taste me and you will see
More is all you need
Dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master

Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror

Taste me and you will see
More is all you need
Dedicated to
How I'm killing you

Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your master
Master

Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master

Master, master
Where's the dreams that I've been after?
Master, master
You promised only lies
Laughter, laughter
All I hear and see is laughter
Laughter, laughter
Laughing at my cries
Fix me

Hell is worth all that
Natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Neverending maze
Drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season

I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too

Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master

Master of Puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master

Listen can you hear the disaster....yeah
It's there about a quarter a mile
I just want to see you happy
I just want to see you happy

*
Falling into you, I can't afford to stay
Your late nights and voodoo
I love your evil ways
Can't sleep cause it's a long flight
and there won't be a cure tomorrow
Hang tight I'm grooving
don't you believe in anything at all

Tell me are you scared of rejection
Cause every no leaves room for a yes
And I just want to see you laughing
I just want to see you laughing

(*Repeat)


Baby I love your evil ways
Sun light, creeping through an open shade
It means a lot to me when you feel me with your eyes
There is a place for you won't you
Come and sit inside
But don't you believe in anything at all
Don't you believe in anything at all....
You just don't mind the get down
you just don't mind the pain
Everyday, everyday, everyday, yeah....

(*Repeat)

Forward yesterday
Makes me wanna stay
What they said was real
Makes me wanna steal
Livin' under house
Guess I'm livin', I'm a mouse
All's I gots is time
Got no meaning, just a rhyme

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
Well, I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be

Feelin' uninspired
Think I'll start a fire
Everybody run
Bobby's got a gun
Think you're kinda neat
Then she tells me I'm a creep
Friends don't mean a thing
Guess I'll leave it up to me

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be

Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal
Take time with a wounded hand
Guess I like to steal
Take time with a wounded hand
'Cause it likes to heal, I like to steal

I'm half the man I used to me
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
This I feel as the dawn
It fades to gray
I'm half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be
Half the man I used to be

Define your meaning of war
To me it's what we do when we're bored
I feel the heat comin' off of the blacktop
And it makes me want it more
Because I'm hyped up, outta control
If it's a fight I'm ready to go
I wouldn't put my money on the other guy
If you know what I know that I know

It's been a long time comin'
And the table's turned around
Cause one of us is going
One of us is going down
I'm not runnin'
It's a little different now
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down!

Define your meaning of fun
Is it f***in', druggin' or guns
I feel the heat comin' off of the blacktop
So get ready for another one
Let's take a trip down memory lane
The words circulate in my brain
You can treat this like another all the same
But don't cry like a b**** when you feel the pain

It's been a long time comin'
And the table's turned around
Cause one of us is going
One of us is going down
I'm not runnin'
It's a little different now
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down!

This is hardly worth fighting for
But it's the little petty s*** that I can't ignore
When my fist hits your face
And your face hits the floor

It'll be a long time comin'
Bet you got the message now
Cause I was never goin'
Yeah, you're the one that's goin' down!

One of us is goin' down
I'm not runnin'
It's a little different now
Cause one of us is goin'
One of us is goin' down!

One of us is goin' down!

Send away for a priceless gift
One not subtle, one not on the list
Send away for a perfect world
One not simply so absurd
In these times of doing what you're told
Keep these feelings, no one knows

What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain as he slowly fell apart

And I'm staring down the barrel of a .45 (.45)
Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
No real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a .45

Send a message to the unborn child
Keep your eyes open for a while
In a box high upon a shelf
Left for you, no one else
There's a piece of a puzzle known as life
Wrapped in guilt, sealed up tight

What ever happened to the young man's heart
Swallowed by pain as he slowly fell apart

And I'm staring down the barrel of a .45 (.45)
Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
No real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a .45

Everyone's pointing their fingers
Always condemning me
Nobody knows what I believe
I believe

And I'm staring down the barrel of a .45 (.45)
Swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
No real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a .45

And I'm staring down the barrel of a .45 (.45)
And I'm swimming through the ashes of another life (another life)
There is no real reason to accept the way things have changed
Staring down the barrel of a .45
(.45)
.45 (Staring down the barrel of a .45)

Nightmare!

(Now your nightmare comes to life)

Dragged ya down below,
Down to the Devil's show,
To be his guest forever,
(Peace of mind is less than never)!

Hate to twist your mind,
But God ain't on your side,
An old acquaintance severed,
(Render of your last endeavour)!

Ashes burning, you can smell it in the air,
'cause men like you have such an easy soul to steal.

So stand in line while begging numbers in your head,
You're now a slave until the end of time,
And nothing stops the madness turning,
Haunting, yearning, pull the trigger!

You should have known, the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah
Ooooh it's your f***in' nightmare!
(While your nightmare comes to life)

Can't wake up in sweat,
'cause it ain't over yet,
Still dancing with your demons,
(Victim of your own creation)!

Beyond the will to fight,
Where all that's wrong is right,
Where hate don't need a reason,
(Love is self-assassination)!

You've been lied to just to rape you of your sight, and now they have the nerve to tell you how to feel.
So sedated as they medicate your brain and while ya slowly go insane the tell ya:
"Give in with your best intentions, Help ya with your complications!"

You should have known the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.
No one to call,
Everybody to fear,
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah.
Ooooh, it's your f***in' nightmare, ha-ha-ha-ha!

Fight (fight),
Not to fail (fail),
Not to fall (fall),
Or you'll end up like the others.

Die (die),
Die again (die),
Drenched in sin (sin),
With no respect for another.

Death (death),
Feel the fire (fire),
Feel the hate (hate),
Your pain is what we desire.

Lost (lost),
Hit the wall (wall),
Watch you crawl (crawl),
Such a replaceable liar.

And I know you hear their voices (calling from above),
And I know they may seem real (these signals of love),
But a life's made up of choices (some without appeal),
They took for granted your soul, and it's ours now to steal
(As your nightmare comes to life)!

You should have known the price of evil,
And it hurts to know that you belong here, yeah.
No one to call,
Everybody to fear,
Your tragic fate is looking so clear, yeah...
Ooooh, it's your f***in' nightmare!
