LYRICS

1. Human Nature ♠
It's human nature to have some fun, and it's human nature to build a bomb
It's human nature to buy a car, go on a road trip and drive real far
Far away from the world of hate, drive away to another state
A state of mind and not a state of place, for you can't get away from the human race
Race to get somewhere that you're not, race to get things that you ain't got
You got to get, you gotta get a lot, you gotta get a lot and not get shot
And it's human nature to buy a gun
And it's human nature to kill someone
It's human nature to buy a gun
It's human nature to kill someone
And it's human nature te deviate
Degenerate, degenerate!
Yeah it's human nature to buy a gun
And it's human nature to kill someone
And it's human nature to love not hate
Yeah that's human nature, so just degenerate, degenerate!

 

2. Ragged ★
I am six, you are nine
Sure enough, everything is fine
Then my six tumbles down
In the end, turns out to be nine
You are six, I am nine,
Sure enough, everything is fine
Ragged

 

3. Crack Your Code ★
Crack your code, your soul's been sold
Try and shoot shoot, that Tory pig!
What the fuck is going on?
Why don't you let me sing my song?
We just can't get along
All I know is you are wrong
Crack your code!

 

4. Keep 'em Rollin' ♠
The road is a bastard
Two tons of steel are movin' down the road
Behind the wheel, I am in control
Of the power I feel now she's firing on all six again
Music pumping through my brain, and it's rock and roll
Keep 'em rollin' all night long
Keep 'em rollin' same old song
Keep 'em rollin' and on and on, and on and on, and keep them rollin'
Keep 'em rollin' better do it right
Keep 'em rollin' each and every night
Keep 'em rollin' and keep you tight
Rocking and reeling all night
Just keep 'em rollin' yeah!
Turning up to the crest of the hill
Feel the power and I feel the thrill
Push the pedal to the metal once again
Yeah I'm coming home to you baby, straight from hell
Keep 'em rollin' all night long
Keep 'em rollin' same old song
Keep 'em rollin' and on and on, and on and on, and keep them rollin'
Keep 'em rollin' and it got no friends
Keep 'em rollin' and it never ends
Keep 'em rollin' and don't forget:
The road is a bastard!
You got tarmac, and diesel, and petrol, and that's road
You got asphalt, and white lines, and they're endless, and that's road
Let's shake some dust
Keep 'em rollin'
And don't forget the road is a bastard
Keep them rollin' yeah

 

5. Arizona ♠
I can't help myself, sometimes I feel this way
And when I feel like this, I just gotta get away
So I get into my car, I drive and I drive all day
Ain't got no destination, there ain't nowhere that I wanna stay
I just gotta get away
So I drive and I drive and I drive, I drive and I drive all day
I drive down the open highway, my mind it runs astray
I drive to the desert, I see the setting sun
I drive back to the city now and I know I'm not the only one
Arizona, deep in Arizona
I can't help myself, sometimes I feel this way
And when I feel like this, I just gotta get away

 

6. Redneck Blues ♠
I gotta bottle of whiskey and a pocket full of pills
I gotta shotgun and I'm looking for a thrill
You better crucify me, before I get to you
I've been hanging around this one horse town all my wretched life
I got fucked by my father and skrewed up by my wife
You better crucify me, before I get to you
I'm sick and tired of everything and everyone I know
I lost my job at the mill, the final straw and now I'm gonna blow
You better crucify me, before I get to you
I've got the redneck blues and I'm back on the bottle again
I've got the redneck blues and I've been down since I don't know when
You better get out of my way before I get to you
You better get out of my way before your time is through

 

7. Burn the Banks ★
We live a dying age
We strive in mortal stage
With mortgage rates soaring high
Suicide still presides, my oh my
Reputable lender, systematic offender
Reputable lender, keeping up with the Jones's
Burn the Banks!
Reputable puke! Mr. Jones is dead - stone dead
Well go on and fuck mrs. Jones instead - yeah fuck her in the head
Burn the Banks!

 

8. Relentless

 

9. Blow ★
Foxy girl fusses with my mind, I can't see, what she can do to me
You're my girl fussing with my mind, I can't see, what you've done just for fun to me
Lonely girl tries to tie my soul, rock'n'roll, all I know she can blow
You're my girl tryin' to tie my soul, rock'n'roll, all I know she can blow my mind
How you blow my mind!

 

10. Youth ♠
Well it's a friday night and I feel allright
Gonna go out and have a drink or two
Do anything that I wanna do
'cause I'm a youth
yeah youth
'cause I'm a youth
We are youth we don't wanna be told
We are youth we will never get old
We are youth we're the spirit of the age
We are youth and now we take the stage
'cause we are youth, it's our time now
yeah youth, never get old
yeah we're youth
We are youth don't tell us what to do
We are youth we don't think like you
We are youth we will never calm down
We are youth we were born to be wild
'cause we are youth time is on our side
we will never get old, can't ever be told
We are youth we're the spirit of the age
We are youth we don't wanna be saved
We are youth we don't care what you think
We are youth come on let's have another drink
Well I worked hard all week and I really don't wanna sleep
I'm gonna have another line or two and do anything that I wanna do
'cause I'm a youth

 

11. Wasted / Desire ♠
I've been down on the street and in a lot of dirty places...wasted
I've been down on my luck and I couldn't draw no aces...so frustrating
When I first met you, you set my heart a racing...dazing
'then you gave me your love and baby your so amazing...yeah you faze me
You set my soul on fire...yeah yeah yeah
