Альбом Powerman 5000

Well, I’ve read the books and stared back at the phony looks and heard all the corny hooks from the north south east and the west.
The exact impact of the stacks of facts can not be tracked or calculated into this burning sun.
NO! Six billion people, twelve billion arms, one golden smile, snake charm they must be up to no good.
The lawyers and the cancer, the lip syncing break dancers. Life is not a recreation.

The way of the world is the way of the west
Match up your shoes to your bullet proof vest
If you’re a disgrace just fall on your sword
I used to be involved but now I’m just bored

(That's right, alright)

Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy
Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy

Gimme, gimme, gimme more than I need
Cut down the trees just to steal the seeds
Born into nuthin and now you’ve got less
You better turn on the charm ‘cause your face is a mess

Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy
Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy

Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy
Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy

Enjoy it while it lasts, ‘cause it’s all going fast
People come and they sure go, but I don’t care
‘Cause all I want you to do is destroy

Now everything you’ve got is nuthin’ no one needs
I’d love to turn you on but they’d rather watch you bleed
The days move along from one into the next
You’ve got alot to be amused by but little to respect

Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy
Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy

Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy
Come on, Destroy
Destroy what you enjoy

Enjoy it while it lasts, ‘cause it’s all going fast
People come and they sure go, but I don’t care
‘Cause all I want you to do is destroy

Destroy!
Destroy!
Destroy!

Come on, Destroy (Destroy!)
Come on, Destroy (Destroy!)
Come on, Destroy (Destroy!)

[One, Two, Let's Go!]

Just south of heaven and north of hell is what lies in between
Over the streets and below the sky that’s choked by gasoline
When the dogs break free and the walls talk back and the meek turn down the lights
It might take a miracle to make it home at all tonight

We’re in the city
The city of the dead
Ain’t nuthin pretty
When you’ve lost your head (your head!)

No god won’t save you ‘cause he don’t care about this town no more
And given the choice of eternal voice, well it’s seems we’ve been ignored
So strap on your boots and pick up yourself and run as fast as you can
The only way in is the only way out and it’s time to take a stand

We’re in the city
The city of the dead
Ain’t nuthin pretty
When you’ve lost your head
We’re hanging on to the last worn thread
We’re in the city, the city of the dead (of the dead!)

This town is all we’ve got and we know it ain’t allot
First chance we get we’re gonna get out
The streets are cold and the skies are grey people hanging on day by day
First chance we get we’re gonna break out

In the city
The city of the dead
We're in the city
The city of the dead

In the city
The city of the dead
We're in the city
The city of the dead

In the city
The city of the dead
In the city
The city of the dead

We're in the city
The city of the dead
We're in the city
The city of the dead
Of the dead! Of the dead! Of the dead!

It's a wild
Wild world
It's a wild
Wild world

And there’s money to be made off someone else’s shame
Every day and every night there’s something going wrong
City rats to suburbanites hold tight ‘cause this is your song

It's a wild
Wild world
That you might not believe in

It's a wild
Wild world
That can be so deceiving

And there’s money to be made off someone else’s shame
And there’s money to be made off someone else’s pain

Time can turn it’s back on you, leave you broken and asking for
A little bit more and less to lose, you lie and cheat and steal just to score

It's a wild
Wild world
It's a wild
Wild world

It's a wild
Wild world
It's a wild
Wild world

And there’s money to be made off someone else’s shame
And there’s money to be made off someone else’s pain

Broken glass and alcohol, bars on windows, security walls
You don’t belong here in this place, you’re too good for that
I can see it in your face

It's a wild
Wild world
That you might not believe in

It's a wild
Wild world
That can be so deceiving

[It's a wild
Wild world]
It's a wild
Wild world

[It's a wild
Wild world]
It's a wild
Wild world

I’m a punk, I’m king, I’m a coward
Full of promise and destiny
But you don’t understand me anyway (that's okay)

You can run and hide and duck in the city
You can drag yourself all over the world

I’m a snake with the blood of electric
No need for conspiracy
‘Cause you won’t understand me anyway (that's no problem)

Gonna laugh when the earth dies screaming
Gonna dance in the fire light
‘Cause you won’t understand me anyway (okay whatever)

You can run and hide and duck in the city
You can drag yourself all over the world

You can do most anything from sea to shinning sea
But you can’t live without your enemies
Enemies, enemies, enemies

[Let's go!]

Getting even ain’t enough, revenge is the key
Get your strength and inspiration from your enemies

You can run and hide and duck in the city
You can drag yourself all over the world

You can do most anything from sea to shinning sea
But you can’t live without your enemies
Enemies, enemies, enemies

[The end]

[Hey!]

The way they look and move, the way they always prove
To be on your mind but not on your side
There’s no accident in a life that’s spent
Watching time move on and on and on

And so you’ll finally see, you’re just a casualty (hey!)
Now you’re coming around, yeah, you’re coming around and you found
That it’s murder
Now you’re slipping away more every day and they say
That it’s murder

Don’t be surprised when there is no prize
And the open doors won’t close no more
And it wasn’t your fault that their assault
Turned mystery into history

And so you’ll finally see, you’re just a casualty (hey!)
Now you’re coming around, yeah, you’re coming around and you found
That it’s murder
Now you’re slipping away more every day and they say
That it’s murder

Now you’re coming around, yeah, you’re coming around and you found
That it’s murder
Now you’re slipping away more every day and they say
That it’s murder

You’ve got the innocent, you’ve got the guilty
You’ve got the clean and the down right filthy
You’ve got the innocent, you’ve got the guilty
you’ve got the clean and the down right filthy

And so you’ll finally see, you’re just a casualty (hey!)
Now you’re coming around, yeah, you’re coming around and you found
That it’s murder
Now you’re slipping away more every day and they say
That it’s murder

Now you’re coming around, yeah, you’re coming around and you found
That it’s murder
Now you’re slipping away more every day and they say
That it’s murder

You’ve got the innocent, you’ve got the guilty
That it’s murder
That it’s murder

You’ve got the clean and the down right filthy
Now you’re slipping away more every day

You’ve got the innocent, you’ve got the guilty
That it’s murder
That it’s murder

You’ve got the clean and the down right filthy
Now you’re coming around and that’s murder

Here come the dead beats and the dirt bags, might give you something that you never had
Don’t get political, just keep it minimal, now can you get with that or are you typical
The lights flashing going off and on , the floors hotter than Viet Nam
Crack it open and release the swarm of a thousand deadly killers

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s Rock ‘n Roll

You know I came to show but you don’t want to know when the lows are high and the highs are low
Been keeping hope alive since 1985 and you gave it up before you even tried
Dancing devil walking on water, can you believe that is somebodys daughter
Not in the show but still a performer and people think you’re crazy

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s Rock ‘n Roll

[Ah... Oh yeah... Oh! Ahhh! Yeah]

Smashed up, bashed up crashed
I’m feeling alright
Ain’t good looking and never been that bright
Smashed up, bashed up crashed
I’m feeling o.k.
Ain’t got nuthin’ to do and nuthin’ to say

[What?]

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s Rockin'

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s Rockin'

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s Rockin'

Come on, come on
Hey now that’s rockin’
Come on, come on
Hey now that’s Rock ‘n Roll

[Yeah!]

Now that’s Rock ‘n Roll
Now that’s Rock ‘n Roll
Now that’s Rock ‘n Roll
Now that’s Rock ‘n Roll

An apparition in your condition has every right to expect some suspicion
And there’s no gratitude in all this solitude but still you wonder how I got this attitude
Your bloody hands and hollow eyes are just a part of your disguise
Your phantom tricks, they’ll burn out quick but not as fast as you

All my friends are ghosts and go away (go away, go away)
Fade and disappear more with each day (everyday, everyday)

It’s not irrational to get emotional, people love to indulge the sensational
Don’t blame society when you lie to me, might be invisible but you ain’t no piety
Shadow shapes they walk through walls, the phone will ring but there’s no call
Times change but still remain the haunted rules of someone else’s game

All my friends are ghosts and go away (go away, go away)
Fade and disappear more with each day (everyday, everyday)

Just take a look you’ll see right through
There’s nothing more that I can do

All my friends are ghosts
I said, all my friends are ghosts
All my friends are ghosts... and go away

You don’t have to hang around, make a move or make a sound
Lost your identity, transparencys alright by me

All my friends are ghosts and go away (go away, go away)
Fade and disappear more with each day (everyday, everyday)

Just take a look you’ll see right through
There’s nothing more that I can do

All my friends are ghosts
I said, all my friends are ghosts
All my friends are ghosts... and go away

[UH! Yeah]

No door on the bathroom stall
No water coming out of the wall
No food and nothing to drink
No peace and I can’t even think

I’m a walking disaster
I’m a walking disaster
I don’t care but you might have to
I’m a walking disaster

I’m a walking disaster
I’m a walking disaster
I don’t care but you might have to
I’m a walking disaster

[Go! Right]

You can dig but you’re only getting dirt
You can swing but you’re only getting hurt
You can want what you want but don’t get
I don’t forgive and I never forget

So, back up, sit down
Take a look around the last mistake has been rectified
Back up, sit down
Take a look around the last mistake has been rectified

You’re a walking disaster, you’re a walking disaster
You don’t care but I might have to
You’re a walking disaster

You’re a walking disaster, you’re a walking disaster
You don’t care but I might have to
You’re a walking disaster

[Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!]

I’m a walking disaster, I’m a walking disaster
I don’t care but you might have to
I’m a walking disaster

I’m a walking disaster, I’m a walking disaster
I don’t care but you might have to
I’m a walking disaster

We’re all walking
We’re all walking
We’re all walking
Disasters!

We’re all walking
We’re all walking
We’re all walking
Disasters!

[Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!]

You don’t wanna get crippled and cracked
But keep hanging on I’m gonna read the riot act
The truth is the truth a fact is a fact
And once you get gone you ain’t coming back

I’ve head it all before just like and echo
So shut down the lights that’s the end of the show
So take it from me it’s time to let go
But there’s one last thing that I need to know

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
I want to know before you gotta go
Who do you think you are?

It’s time to relax just pull up a seat
You can’t ever win ‘cause you can’t compete
I’ve been to every city on every street
I know all the people that you’d like to meet

Simple is the story there’s no sub plot
Life ain’t a movie it’s just a snap shot
You try to do a little ‘cause you can’t do allot
So tell me again ‘cause I just forgot

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
I want to know before you gotta go
Who do you think you are?

How does it feel to be one of the crowd?
Locked inside and you’re never allowed
The sad truth of a life never lived
Is when it’s over you’ve got nothing to give

[Come on! Alright! Again!]

Well there's one more thing that I need to know

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
I want to know before you gotta go
Who do you think you are?

Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
I want to know before you gotta go
Who do you think you are?

My philosophy of catastrophe no doubt is coming after me, but I can chop that down like a family tree.
The givers, the takers, the losers, money makers, not to be crass but it’s the construction of the masses that gives them the need to sweat or succeed, get fat or just bleed.
From rags to riot in three easy step, now check this out.
The whores might be hustlers and the hustlers might be the whores but if words fall on deaf ears then I am the deafest of them all.

Fat people in shopping malls
Meet me at the big and tall
Not for sale but might be for rent
Raise up the flag on the circus tent

You might miss America when it’s gone
You might miss America when it’s gone
You might miss America, Paranoid hysteria
You might miss America when it’s gone
When it’s gone

Crap movies and shit TV
We got it all most defiantly
Lots of drugs and lots of guns
But no one seems to be having much fun

You might miss America when it’s gone
You might miss America when it’s gone
You might miss America, Paranoid hysteria
You might miss America when it’s gone
When it’s gone, when it’s gone (yeah, yeah, yeah!)

Bring out your dead, let’s see ‘em smile
The last one left gets the top of the pile
Bring out your dead let’s go for a walk
Everyone’s afraid to throw the first rock

Bring out your dead, let’s see ‘em smile
The last one left gets the top of the pile
Bring out your dead let’s go for a walk
Everyone’s afraid to throw the first rock

Fire crack on the forth of July
You’re dressing up in a suit and a tie
Starting wars all over the world
Nice place for a boy and a girl (that's right)

You might miss America when it’s gone
You might miss America when it’s gone
You might miss America, Paranoid hysteria
You might miss America when it’s gone
When it’s gone, when it’s gone (yeah, yeah, yeah!)

[Hey, this is a new song, we call this one Heroes and Villains]

[Hey!]

Chip off the block
Seems that I'm not
As good as I thought
Or as bad as you want
The line has been drawn
What side are you on?
Try to do it right
But everything is wrong

And so I stare at
The dregs of the earth
Clear blue skies
To the deepest of dirt
With hands stretched out
Looking pious and pure
To the ten padlocks
Strapped on your front door

There ain't nuthin'
But heroes and villains
More villains than heroes
But can you tell
One from the next?
Can you go down from zero?

There ain't nuthin'
But heroes and villains
More villains than heroes
All lined up
From the east to the west
Black hat born or an 'S' on your chest

Now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now

[Go! Yeah! Come on!]

Who got in your head?
Who told you those things?
You better put 'em up
When you hear the bell ring
Seeing things clear
In the blackest of night
And sometimes the good guys
They dont wear white

There ain't nuthin'
But heroes and villains
More villains than heroes
But can you tell
One from the next?
Can you go down from zero?

There ain't nuthin'
But heroes and villains
More villains than heroes
All lined up
From the east to the west
Black hat born or an 'S' on your chest

[That's right, that's right
Now check this out]

Gangsters and mobs
With itchy trigger fingers
Do-gooder knights
Or some love song singers
They all got their rules, man,
Are trades of the trick
But give 'em one chance and
I swear they'll all switch

[Put your hands up in the air, let me see you tonight)]

Now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now
Now, now, now, now, now
Now, now, now

There ain't nuthin'
But heroes and villains
More villains than heroes
But can you tell
One from the next?
Can you go down from zero?

There ain't nuthin'
But heroes and villains
More villains than heroes
All lined up
From the east to the west
Black hat born or an 'S' on your chest

[Hey Hey Hey!
That's right!
Hey Hey]

[Thank you, thank you, alright]

what is it really that is going on here,
you've got the system for total control
so is there anybody out there,
now watch us suffer, cause we can't go
what is it really that is in your head,
what little life that you had just died
i'm gonna be the one that's taking over,
now this is what it's like when worlds collide ...

are you ready to go - cause i'm ready to go - what you gonna do baby - baby
are you going with me - cause i'm going with you - it's the end of all time

what is it really that motivates you, the need to fly or this fear to stop
i'll go along for the ride but surprise, when we get there is say 9 of 10 drop
now who's the light and who is the devil, you can't decide so i'll be your guide
and one by one they will be hand chosen,
now this is what it's like when worlds collide ...

are you ready to go - cause i'm ready to go - what you gonna do baby - baby
are you going with me - cause i'm going with you - it's the end of all time

what is it really when they're falling over,
everything that you thought was denied
i'm gonna be the one that's takin over,
now this is what it's like when worlds collide
