all i remember is: I was arrested by a couple of cops
but the next moment i had a gun so i took off
i took their car and drove away to find a prostitute
but i got no bucks all i could give her was a gallon of juice
woke up in my boots and started running
attracted by the weird feeling of being lost
all i hear is the sound of guitar strumming
i crossed the line that I’d better never crossed
found myself back in a place Iive never been before
only death is sure, life is not, so i rock on
first reaction, a bottle of booze the left over crack
restart again is just the last memory i had
woke up in my boots and started running
attracted by the weird feeling of being lost
all I hear is the sound of guitar strumming a
i crossed the line that I’d better never crossed
...fuck, yay

long after midnight i arrived in a pub
no memories of last hours
to many toasts to myself
my crawling mind feels missing power
but i feel alive tonight
don’t waste your time, waste your body
another shot down tonight
don’t waste your time, waste your body
my kingdom for a sixpack and a bottle of wine
troubles looking for me
the living dead crowd drinks and sings along
well i’ve been drinking and i’ve been gambling
devil smiles and hits me with an eightball
but i feel alive tonight
don’t waste your time, waste your body
another shot down tonight
don’t waste your time, waste your body
my kingdom for a sixpack and a bottle of wine

i was stumbling down a lonesome road
fucking drunk and out of sight
bar fights, beer and booze
like all these saturday nights
when i wanted to cross the street
i saw this horned male
suddenly he came up to me and asked
is this soul for sale?
it was a pleasure when we met on the sidewalk
got the same ideas but the hell no time to talk
we knew exactly what it was about yeah
cuz your afraid, afraid to lose your throne
then it hit me like a slap in face
it was the devil shouting phrases
his eightball eyes looked down on me
all around me smoking aces
i invited him to drink with me
but lucifer said well, he said
you’re too fucked up for me i don’t want you in hell
it was a pleasure when we met on the sidewalk
got the same ideas but the hell no time to talk
we knew exactly what it was about yeah
cuz your afraid, afraid to lose your throne

This Early Grave

loaded guns i push my head into the dirt
and i swallow all that i can
crawling through these streets of desperation
losing last confidence
and you see it all
but you give a fuck
and hate me for that ego
nevermind, this early grave is mine
when i hit the run
and found myself
i became someone else
nevermind, this early grave is mine
stuck in between stupid fairytales and lies
and i puke on all their good advices
it’s so close like the scar between my balls
and i’m the man who’s brave enough to fight this
and you see it all
but you give a fuck
and hate me for that ego
nevermind, this early grave is mine
when i hit the run
and found myself
i became someone else
nevermind, this early grave is mine

this is the hot spot baby
this is where they wait in line
it’s all or nothing baby
burning bodies in the morning light
mark my words lay me on a line
this is shock therapy
blow up your fucking minds
as far as the eye can see
dressed up, ready to bite
ready to get in touch tonight
knock, knock, there’s nobody home
all your boys are on the run
because i never hesitate, never hesitate, never hesitate
you better never mess against, never mess against, against me because i never hesitate, never hesitate, never hesitate
you better never mess against, never mess against, against me
this is a body count
my sweat gone up in flames
are you ready to get down
or is it just another thing you ain’t
let’s play with hand grenades
and blow our fingers off
this is a hurricane
and now i fight with butts
dressed up, ready to bite
ready to break some bones tonight
knock, knock, there’s nobody home
all your boys are on the run
because i never hesitate, never hesitate, never hesitate
you better never mess against, never mess against, against me because i never hesitate, never hesitate, never hesitate
you better never mess against, never mess against, against me
walking through blood and feces
because i never hesitate, never hesitate, never hesitate
you better never mess against, never mess against, against me because i never hesitate, never hesitate, never hesitate
you better never mess against, never mess against, against me

there’s a time in life
you realize
you never get what you want
and you’re all alone
when it comes to you
it’s pushing you
and pulls you down
breaks you down
when you’ve been hurt
raise your head and walk away
never give up trying
just don’t care of what they say
no matter what they say
there was a time in life
i realized
it’s hard to get on through
and to stay, too
feels like a waste of time
to fill my mind
and care about someone else
it never was so easy to fade away
when you’ve been hurt
raise your head and walk away
never give up trying
just don’t care of what they say
no matter what they say
when you’ve been hurt
raise your fist and run
run again
no matter what they say

Just In Case

this is a knock-out like back in the days
we’re gonna roll down without leaving a trace
reach for the sky and the sky reach for me
put on a smile, better smile just in case
they try to fuck me in every hole
but i smile and beg for more
they leave me wasted like dirt on the ground
but i sang it and i'll sing it on
all my working class heroes
and all my white trash ladies
put your middle fingers up in the air
all my backyard soldiers
and all the good fellas that never split
put your middle fingers up in the air
living together, die all alone
that's why i stay focused on ways of my own
the government’s trying to save our world
like i was trying jacking off when i was twelve
no results and no signs of change
guess because it doesn't matter to 'em anyway
this is for all you state-leading-freaks
i never voted you and i would die before agree
all my working class heroes
and all my white trash ladies
put your middle fingers up in the air
all my backyard soldiers
and all the good fellas that never split
put your middle fingers up in the air
they try to fuck me in every hole
but i smile and beg for more
they leave me wasted like dirt on the ground but
i sang it and i'll sing it on
working class heroes
white thrash ladies
backyard soldiers
and the good fellas that never split
all my working class heroes
and all my white trash ladies
put your middle fingers up in the air
all my backyard soldiers
and all the good fellas that never split
put your middle fingers up in the air

Shotgun

yesterday they let me outta jail
it was like a never ending fairytale
everything was gone and far away
went downtown to the rockabilly bar
one pint of whiskey just for the broken heart
don’t know what to do or even what to say
way down on the railroad track
i rolled the dice
no shotgun, no way back
no one by my side
well i had a million dollars
but i spend it all
oh i had a wife and a family
but no one’s at home
well i had a million dollars
but i spend it all
oh i had a wife and a family
but no one’s at
home again i try to drown myself
empty bottles all around my azz
the whiskey’s burning down my throat
i drank my last bugs away (away)
i don’t care about these bills to pay (to pay)
can’t even count the rules i broke
i have enough of this
i see red
two bullets in my tattooed chest
and one inside my head
well i had a million dollars
but i spend it all
oh i had a wife and a family
but no one’s at home
well i had a million dollars
but i spend it all
oh i had a wife and a family
but no one’s at

Who Drives That PickUp?

stuck in a prison i
never understood
oh i tried, i tried, i tried
but i don’t fit in like i should
isn’t it a beautiful night
to shape ambitions new
isn’t it worth a try
to write down words to sing a happier blues
to be tomorrows adult
feels bored and unfulfilled
i know i’m getting older
but i don’t know what that means
this backseat makes me tired
and i wish for a crash
to break out of this future
and reanimate myself
shall i spend these 50 years
of doing what i hate
or shall i hunger for my freedom
that’s no choice for me
to be tomorrows adult
feels bored and unfulfilled
i know i’m getting older
but i don’t know what that means
when there’s a secret gate
on the backside of that cage
i’ll be long gone
you wont see me anymore
and if i’m all alone
and no one hears my song
i’m still proud of being gone
you wont see me anymore
to be tomorrows adult
feels bored and unfulfilled
i know i’m getting older
but i don’t know what that means
