1. Old World Monkey
Standing still now...
In the convulsing crowd
Like a monolith from some forgotten time
Tryin' to get high
Dying to embrace the world
Come lay down next to go, home
Forget about the rest!
Brag and hear me
Step back or get down!
You know I am Old-World Monkey
Hailing from the Old-World Monkey baby yeah!
Feel like a remnant...
Of some long-gone form of life
Or civilization
Unsynchronized with time
Tryin' to get high
Dying to embrace the world
Come here right next to me, honey
Forget about this less!
Pounding, pounding...now the rhythm's right
And this thing I've found in you...
I will keep all nine!!!
This one's for y'all...
Fuckin' New-World Monkeez!!!
Ha! Ha! Ha!
2. Alive Is Dead
They try to fuck us...
They always did...
They try to break us...
They never will...
You thought me dead, boe!
Well I'm alive...
They try to sweep us from the face of the earth
They try to make us regret our birth
They try to flush us right down the drain
And play their filthy games again and again!
You thought me dead, boe!
Well I'm alive...
You thought me dead, boe!
But I'm alive...
They always tried to sabotage our thing
And ban and boycot every song that I sing
They're tryin' to make to make us even dig our own graves
We'll keep'em waitin' for the Judgement Day!
Still alive...
Still alive...
3. Cold Women & Warm Beer
I see her walkin' down
In her pretty dress
The bot comes 'round w/a crate of beer
I feel like a "rude ol" fesse
Raisin' hell now...
Raisin' hell now...
I sing my boogie when the lights go out!
When the lghts go out!
I see her passin' by
In her hi-heel shoes
The boe takes the beer to someone else
We're stuck w/ the same ol' blues
I sing my boogie when the lights go out!
And all we got was
Cold women
Cold women and warm beer
Cold women...
Oh babe i need more
Come now little brother
Spare a dime for me
All my life i wasted here
Gave my soul for free
Raisin' hell now...
Raisin' hell now...
I sing my boogie when the lights go out!
When the lights go out!
And all we got was
4. Hot Wheels
оригинал: Hurriganes
Theres a whole lotta jumping
And a whole lotta bumping goin on
Theres a whole lotta balling
A whole lotta mauling going on
You can get a bit of this
Get a bit of that
Come to the party
And get a bit of what's going on
Theres a whole lotta drinking
And a whole lotta thinking going on
Theres a whole lotta dancing
And a kind of romancing going on
You can get a bit of this
Get a bit of that
Come to the party
And get a bit of what's going on
5. Black Water Fever
Insanity with it's little teeth
Is gaving at my brain
Amd slowly driving me insane...
Black water
Black water
Black water fever's drowning me!
Black water fever...
Drowning me!
For suffering will always be provided
For those in need
And i'm being punished for my deed...
Black water fever
Drowning me!
This is the harvest that we reap
And it's growing from the baddest sced
Once more the circle is complete...
Black water fever...drowning me!
6. Lost In The Shadows, I Walk Alone
Lost in the shadows...
I walk alone
Lost in the shadows...
Deep in the shadows of my soul
Lost in the shadows, I walk alone
'cause there ain't nobody home
Lost in the shadows, I walk alone
1000000 miles away from home!
Lost in the shadows...
Lost in the twilight truth
I was lost in the illusion of youth
Couldn't bear the night no more
Lost in a lifeless void
I'm lost in my soul
Scan so much my eyes are more
Blame it on the moonless nights
Or blame it on the days that I died
Lost in the shadows of my soul
Lost in the shadows...
7. Ain't No Friend O'Mine
Dog-gone soul is better off dead now
Hear my words and hang your heads down
Flames are growin' higher, higher...
We're caught down in a ring of fire...
Goin' down, goin' down...
I do it once
Or maybe twice
Then leave you begging like a good dog
Flames are growin' higher, higher...
We're caught down in a ring of fire
Just like I told you before
And now you know it's for real
A little thing you should now:
Is that you ain't no friend of nine
Burn your house and steal your car
Kick your dog and take your pretty wife
Flames are growin'...
Stalk your kids and poison your cat
Tell your papa you're a faggot
Flames are growin'
8. The Healer
Right!
I'm sitting in your room tonite
I'm right here baby by your side
I wanna hold you by the hand
And tell you girl only I undersand
I wanna heal you!
I wanna make it good!
But I can't...
For I can only make you worse
I step beside your bed all night
I tell you everything's alright
If only you could feel my touch
And hear me whisper that I love you so much
I wanna heal you...
You think I am your saviour girl
You think I'm gonna be your man
But I ain't gonna save you baby
Although I'm pretty sure that I can
9. Crooked Mile
Dive into nothingness
Forget that we exist
And feed our souls to stray dogs
At the gates of bliss
We all shall be dismissed
To drown ourselves in pools of blood
Learn to fool ourselves
More than life itself
Lose our winds like wild hogs
Learn to swim in urine
Vomit oxygen sad bile
And then walk...
As i walk my crooked mile
Cross the Tiber and cross the Nile
I see centuries rush by
As i walk my crooked mile
First admit your failure
Then embrace your traitor
Sell our lives for freedom
Learn to hide your fortune
Take delight in torture
And then walk...
10. Mad Ol'Country
Sure we had a reputation
For being weak and rude
And I guess there ain't no saying
What's the truth
We used to rather mind our business
And take care of it too
Still we like to keep to ourselves now
How 'bout you?
Sing a song for a mad ol' country
No place like home
Just a song for this mad ol' towa
The north will rise again!
It's rising!
So we liked to drink our whiskey
For a forth sight in a row
And go raisin' hell down south
What a real bloody horrorshow
And yes, we take a lot of pride, man
In what we are and what we do
At least we have integrity, son
How 'bout you?
It's rising:
Can you hear it honey?
Now for all ye unbelievers
Just let the truth be knows
You can take a an out of here, girl
But never above
It's rising!
11. Man's Ruin Revisited
Alright!
God bless me for my sins
God bless me for my evil deeds
For I've done wrong
Thatnk god for my disease
And praise the lord for my lurid needs
I fuckin' need'em!
I'm doin' fine!
I won't cross the line
Till I leave this living hell
It's man's ruin again
Man's ruin again!
God bless me for my wounds
God bless me for my scars as well
I'm goin; to hell babe!
Thre ain't no cure for my disease
Until I cease to exist
Well life's a bitch anyway
It's man's ruin again!
Man's ruin again!
12. Better Angels
So they came into being
Under a dying sun
Better angels of our nature
A job well done?
Don't under the surface
Lying dead but dreaming
Better angels of our natures
'twas a dream worth dreaming...
When all our wisdom has faded
All is said and done
Our good intentions are jaded, jaded
And all hope is done
For the better angels
So the seagulls landed
On a dying shore
And all our hopes were stranded
Growing faint to the core
Yet the city's breathing
Forever dead but dreaming
Better angels of our nature
'twas a dream worth dreaming...
Let us pray for our better angels...
