LYRICS
Mister Gun

Dear Mr. Gun
I don't know where you've gone
I'd load you up with lead
To shoot myself in The head
I'd wish you back soon
Cause my life ain't really worth doing
All those silly things
That makes you want to cling

CHORUS
And I really ask myself
What do I do without you
I guess I'll go and buy myself some rope

Dear Mr. Gun
I don't know where you've gone
I need you right now
And please don't ask me why
Iíd wish you back soon
Cause my life ain't really worth doing
You're my only friend
And you'll take me to The end

Chorus
(I guess I'll go and buy myself some ska)

Dear Mr. Gun
I don't know where you've gone
I'd load you up with lead
To shoot myself in The head
I'd wish you back soon
Cause my life ain't really worth doing
You're my only friend
And you'll take me to the end

Chorus

Some rope

 

Educated Mind

Are you just like me, binded by authority?
The violence in the news today, it makes me wanna say;
´Fuck you and all your lies, you'll never realize
what makes the world turn, what will make you burn!!!ª

if you wanna waste your life away, doing nothing right
and if you want to save the world, then you'd better do it now

An educated mind ainít no fucking suicide   x4

So spare me your concern 'bout a country that you've never seen
One-sided frame of mind and an attitude all filled with greed
Anxiety is building while the middle-class is crushed

Pre-chorus

Chorus

Bridge

Chorus

 

Unleaded

I'm in your car
It keep on breakin' down on you
But it ain't that bad...
It sure beats walking any day, so
Iíll keep on riding it home
I got no choice, I'm always broke
I'm on my way
I'll never leave the highway

CHORUS
I'll take it safe
won't have an accident today
Any other day but not today...

Unleaded.............!

Passing is great
that's just a dream in my old crate
Big cars go by
They must be thieve; they might be late
My tank runs dry, near empty
The nearest station; on my way
I'll fill the tank unleaded
So little gas and off I go

Chorus x3

 

Drunk once again

I've been drunk before
But I never tought, it was this bad
With every sip I take
I see you turn and walk away

It's like the day we met
I was drunk and you helped me stand
I wished you weren't there
To see me so deprived

CHORUS
And she said to me
And she said to me
Get the fuck away
Get the fuck away, YOU'RE DRUNK!

Good friends are correctly cleaning me up
And others just started to laugh at me
I'm so dawn drunk, it's not the same
I couldn't remember my own name

But when she looks at me
I feel like dropping everything
Next morning, I regret it
But it's too late she's just leaving...

BRIDGE

CHORUS

 

SST

Won't you say you'll sleep with me tonight
and if you don't can't you stay, and keep me out of sight
coz you know, i can't be sleeping all alone
i enjoy your presence on the phone

Follow me you're wastin' too much time
you're not forgiven

It's ok, my boyfriend's feeling lame
so we don't have to wait and must not feel ashamed
it's alright, take my hand and turn off all the lights
don't be nervous things will turn out right

Don't you feel you're doing the right thing?
don't start complaining

Won't you stay and sleep for tonight
If my boyfriend comes he won't even know
That you and i had sex seven times
You can say that

Bridge

You can say that

 

Revenge

You're lying to me so I'm lying to you
It's simple to see that there's nothing to do
You're fucking me up cause you're fucked up too
Get someone else to blame I ain't listening to you

There's so much I can take when it's coming from you
You decided that I was The one who would lose
You decided to stay now itís time for revenge
You lied to me, you lied to me

You're breaking my arm but there's no other choice
It's a thirst for revenge what's in your inner voice
You try to stretch time but thereís no way you can win
You have nothing to lose so you try it again

1st verse

chorus

 

Listen Up

It ain't my voice, that you heard on the radio
Not gonna waste my time, i'm gonna leave it up to you
And i draw the line you'll be sittin' all alone
Pick it up now you just have to go, chasing the girls you hardly know?
What about the times you like to share, what about that girl who used to care?
So when you have to go think about the options that you know

Solo

It's my own choice, if i'm not happy with your lies
You're begging me to change we fight & argue all the time
Now it's your turn to listen up; let's call it quits and give it up
Shut your fuckin' mouth

 

Ground Level

You elect the government so quickly, now you criticize them
You don't have a reason for the fact, that you are bleeding
Independent state of mind is driving you way out of line
Could it be your problems, should they always have to end this way?

I've got my two feet on the ground
My face is up and lookin' down
You can't decide on what to do
Just tell me what is wrong and what is true

Think about it now, the situation isn't out of hand
Reelected assholes keep on drinking on your blood
Keep it up your hang time is in dept towards the social cause
Talk it out, your point of view might see it's way to them

Chorus

Chorus(2 last line first, 2 first, last)

 

My Pride 

Oh way oh way oh way oh , oh oh oh oh!!!!

You can not take my pride away            oh oh oh oh!!!!!!
I fight you every single day        oh oh oh oh!!!!!!!
It's not my battle don't you know?          oh oh oh oh !!!!!!!
The poor do suffer, but don't show.oh oh oh oh !!!!!!!

You live 3000 miles away
I hope you realize it
I wish you stopped your stupid way
You wasted too much of my time

Oh way oh way oh way oh , oh oh oh oh !!!!!!!!

Why can't you see what's going  on!     oh oh oh oh !!!!
Someone may starve but you're still gone     oh oh oh oh !!!!!!!!!
You fight for human rights all day   oh oh oh oh !!!!!
Why can't you back up what you say  oh oh oh oh !!!!!

Chorus

Oh way oh way oh way oh, oh oh oh oh !!!!!!!!!!

 

Average Guy

I've got nothing to prove, and i've got nothing to hide
Just a kid with some problems, and i try to keep in mind
That people can't bring me down, they can't push me around
I'm just an average guy who wants to make it right
Don't wanna live being a stupid nobody
I just want a job to live on my own
But i don't want to pick up the usual beat
So i've got to make it on my own, alone

I don't wanna be a suit and tie guy
And be a part of the daily grind thing
I just wanna travel riding coast to coast
Touring, traveling, everything and nothing

I wanna make a move, doing something that's useful
Wanna clean my mind from all the useless things i've did
And all these years , i've been wondering why????
It was a waste of time and now it's time to go

Solo

I must find a way , living with the two sides of me
I'm a perfectionist but a lazy one
The only thing i see i the band and me
But we've got  to work hard if we want to make it happen

Chorus x2

 

42 Days

I understand The problem
Never thought that it would leave me empty
I don't expect you leave me something...
I could hold on to

Crashing windows made you feel so lucky
Being caught was like a whole new beating
Now, you're gone I'm feeling so unlucky
Way too much guilt...but now

Chorus
You've been lying in that small box for 42 days, But I'm still left behind,  oh yeah
Are you thinkin' I've got something I didn't say? There's nothing else to say........

Many people tried to save you somehow
They could never reach you quite as I did
I've been living your life til it crumbled
My anger's fading now

CHORUS

SOLO

They'd question all your problems; shameless, What's your problem, is it self explaining?
I don't think they worry too much about you, I find it hard sometimes

Life's a bitch, ain't it? Hardly fakin' it.
Aren't you really fuckin' sick of it all?
Lengths and silences, no words just violence
We've been taking our chances..............

 

Choices

Why are we running today?
When we could find a new way
We must not wait for a chance
We may not get a new chance
Why are we wasting our time?
Trusting a luck that just binds
One by one we're all falling
And we are seeing The end!

Why don't we find a new way?
Why don't we find a new way? `Choices`
We just can't live for another day
So why don't we find a new way? `Choices`

We have some choices to make
Do it at least for your own sake
It won't be easy, for you
Stewed and nothing to do
We all swallow a pill
A pill you don't have to feel
So stop now wasting your breath
And stop waiting for death

CHORUS

We have some choices to make `Choices`
We have some choices to make `Choices`
Fuckin' choices

 

Almighty ten

I think you'd never believe what i'm thinking? It's not related to you!
If my action just happens to elude them, then i'll do it again!
I don't know what they think they might do? And i don't care more than you
It's all over, i get rid of my tension, and i won't do it again

It's alright, it's really alright
Yeah it's ok, i said it's really ok
Won't you ever listen to what i have to say?
And i say; who am i talking to?
It's the almighty ten!!

Do these people care about your problems
They don't even know how!
And do they listen when you're about to shut  down
Man, they just bring you down

Chorus

Solo

Ten is powerful, ten is just amazing
I think it's really bullshit
If i had a choice i would take it
In my mind, this is it!!!

Chorus

And i say; who am i talking to
It's the almighty.......TEN!

 

Open Book

You want in, you want out?
Your ranking's just beginning
You ask me, don't ask me
I don't know what I'm saying
Hate tobacco, love tobacco?
It ain't your opinion
You wanted out, well your out
So would you stop complaining!!!!!

You hate me, I hate you
But I hate you more than you do
What about love, what about us?
That leaves me out, there's no use
I don't think so, I don't think so
You're just a fucking noname
I can read you, you can read me
We are just two open books, yeah, you are!!!

 

Tryin'

I would ignore this situation, but it's getting out of hand
A funny word isnít appropriate

I got in this situation and it's getting even worse
I got arrested cause I offended someone
I don't know what you should feel
When questioned about The way it was

I am trying
When I should be crying
I am trying
Ahhhhhhhhhhhahhhhhhhhhhhh!

Borrowed this from my best friend
Heís out of luck and out of friend
He beats me up like no one can
I like black and blue to look like you

Chorus

1st verse

chorus

 

Drinking Song

It'll take vodka for tonight, cause the whiskey's out of sight
To bring yourself to a vault, and to slave my brain to fault

Just pour yourself a glass,  not to swallow it too fast
Cause your face will blow up red, n íyouíre gonna sleep in the shed

CHORUS
We'll have ourselves some beer
And drink away from fear
We'll start a little fight
Guess the bartender is right............yeah, he's right!

Drink up your tempting soul, you're not eighteen years old
Shut up you stupid fuck! You owe me twenty bucks.

I'm drunk like I'll never be,
You're drunk man you're like me
We pour to this drinking song
Cause everything else's going wrong

Solo

CHORUS x 2

 

Look at Me

I'm a drain, I don't know why
Still afraid, I don't know why
I'm insane, I don't know why
Still The same, I don't know why
I'm a wound , I don't know why
Still The stooge, I don't know why
I'm disturbed, I don't know why
Still The fool, I don't know why

Look at me, am I me
Look at me, remind me
Look at me, devise me
Look at me, am I me

I'm in love, I don't know why
Still fucked up, I don't know why
I mistrust, I don't know why
Still disgust, I don't know why
Feel The pain, I don't know why
Still ashamed, I don't know
I'm confused, I don't know why
Still abused, I don't know why

Chorus x2

 

Leave it up to Me

You don't want no part of me
You know it ,I can see that
But it is not your fault
It is not your fault
The situation isn't right
I know that you're way too up tight
I am so confused
I am so confused

CHORUS
So leave it up to me to go way
So leave it up to me to say it's too late
So leave it up to me I'll show you what to do
Leave it up to me......................TO WALK AWAY!!!

I'm up and I'm down
So confuse cuz I'm searching why
Well it was not your fault
It was not your fault.................
Today's the day we break away
We've made it on our separate way
I am so confused......................

BRIDGE

1st verse

 

The Dumbest Drag Queen

You scream like a drag queen
And cause major scenes
Every time you get back
You give misbelieve
It's kind of my fault
I'm always too clean
On The scene
On The scene

All in all it's your fault, you pervert
Let's not make a big deal, I'm drowning
I just love it when you cheat, you pervert
Getting busy with The dumbest drag queen

If I'd know a little better
If I'd had diseases
I wouldn't get upset 'bout
My girl's bigger dick
I'm kind of embarrassed
I'm kind ashamed
On The scene

Chorus

Bridge

1st verse

chorus

 

What do you want next?

The way you look at things it amounts to The same
As looking through a barrel of a shotgun that's loaded
You take things as they are, you take things as they are
That's what's supposed to be, it's your philosophy

You want it, you got it so what do you want next?
The money and The fame, don't leave out The rest
It's so funny The difference between me and you
A question I ask myself, but I don't have a clue

If you can understand, then I can be a man
I'll be there with a grin, ,I'll show up with my face
You take things as they are, you take things as they are
That's how it's got to be, it's your philosophy

Chorus

Breakdown(chorus)

You want it
You got it
What do you want next?

 

Summer Break
 
Oh yeah! We're heading to the beach,
Oh yeah! We're heading to the beach
Oh yeah! To roast under the sun
Oh yeah! To roast under the sun
Oh yeah! The school is over
Oh yeah! The school is over
Oh yeah! The school is over
Oh yeah! The school is over

Could you just wake up, and feel the fuckin' heat?
My brain is melting, my eyes are poppin' out
The horny women are walking down the streets
I just don't care cause my girlfriend won't find out

Oh yeah! We've played this fuckin' song
Oh yeah! Just sang it yesterday
Oh yeah! Recorded it today
Oh yeah! And tomorrow
We'll pay! We've played this fuckin' song
Oh yeah! Just sang it yesterday
Oh yeah! Recorded it today
Oh yeah! And tomorrow we'll pay
