When I drive to work I'm gonna pack me some heat Cause I don't like the people that I have to fucking see Driving to slow or trying to cut in front of me I think I'm gonna go on a fucking killing spree When I stand still in traffic, I'm losing my mind Thinking that I should have fucking ridden a bike But now they can't stop me from committing this crime My guns will be blazing at the next red light Daily commute killing spree Used to be so nice and sweet Daily commute killing spree Starting with the yuppies in the SUVs It's not that I care about getting to work on time It's just I don't like people wasting my time Waiting for hours to sit at a desk And then waiting for hours to not be home yet So I'm gonna drag them all out and gun them all down Drag them all out and gun them all down Drag them all out and gun them all down Drag them all out and gun them all down Daily commute killing spree Used to be so nice and sweet Daily commute killing spree Starting with the yuppies in the SUVs

Drink up drink up drink up fuck you The 30 racks cracked and we wanna rock n roll Half blind walking tall on the Hamm's Patrol Drink up drink up drink up fuck you From the land of sky blue waters We've gone cross-eyed from all the poppers So you wanna live So you wanna die You're wasting away as we walk on by So you wanna live So you wanna die You're wasting away as we walk on by This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, right? There ain't no coming back we're blacking out tonight Drink up drink up drink up fuck you Rolling a 40 down a dark alley Ain't no way to mix a brass monkey Drink up drink up drink up fuck you Busted by the cops in a parking lot While some poor kids are getting shot So you wanna live So you wanna die You're wasting away as we walk on by So you wanna live So you wanna die You're wasting away as we walk on by This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, right? There ain't no coming back we're blacking out tonight

DUI or DIE 02:33
Woke up standing tall My hand on someone's wall Have I been here for long? Everyone's face looks so wrong Broken glass and bloody wrists People tightening their fists The day was long but now it's night Where am I gonna sleep tonight? There's a party over here, a party over there I'm too drunk to drive but I don't even care Judging by those flashing lights Looks like this ain't my night Got caught holding weight Breaking curfew with jailbait She's cold but we're getting warm I love a woman in uniform Feeding her my every lie Is this DUI or die? There's a party over here, a party over there I'm too drunk to drive but I don't even care I like to party I like to boogie I like the frathouse, yeah I'm at the dance club Cuz I like to boogie I like the nightlife, yeah There's a party over here, a party over there I'm too drunk to drive but I don't even care

Lanie's lacing up her boots She's pushing up her bra She's trying to get her hair just right She's going to the dance But she don't need a man She's looking for romance tonight Lanie left home on a Saturday night Said she'd be fine but wasn't alright Fucked up on coke and wanting to cry When she walked in the bar, Stace caught her eye Tight black jeans and high heel shoes Leather jacket and New Wave hairdo Lanie took a chance and asked her to dance Stace looked her in the eye, smiled and said yes Bottles went down as time went by They shared a passionate kiss at closing time Lanie said, "I don't have anywhere to go" Stace took her by the hand and they headed out Lo-fi girls on the streets at night Breaking glass on the walls and picking fights They don't care because the time is right They've got their problems but not tonight Lanie told Stace, "I can't go home" "No I'm not going back, now I'm on my own" Stace said, "Don't worry, you're not alone" "We've got each other, we don't need approval" Mom and dad just can't understand Why she can't date a man She knows with her heart and soul That there's a fire burning inside A passion oh so strong just can't be wrong She's in love with a rock 'n' roll girl

Stupid Talk 03:19
What you're saying to me I can't believe How'd you get on my TV? Spreading lies like a disease You're filled with hypocrisy You're saying it once, saying it twice Giving a perspective from the wrong eyes You're saying it once, saying it twice And I'm sick of your lies lies lies Say what you mean, mean what you say In the end it's all just stupid talk Mean what you say, say what you mean In the end it's all just stupid talk Talks not cheap with what's at stake Molding the minds at those that think your great Try to change your words after you make a mistake Try to take your actions back but it's too late You're saying this but you're doing that You preach like you're right but you've got no facts You're saying this but you're doing that You're actions speak louder than your fucking bull crap Say what you mean, mean what you say In the end it's all just stupid talk Mean what you say, say what you mean In the end it's all just stupid talk

Bar Close 04:40
Bar close drunk and alone Halfway broke and halfway home What a friendly way to die Staring in at those warm soft lights Bar close just killing time Waiting around to change my life Looks like tonight ain't my night Been 4 years with no hope in sight Bar close life walks on by Not settling down when you always cry Looks like you're cracking a frown There goes the loneliest girl in town Bar close so sad to see Waltzing alone on the cold concrete Leaving dance steps in the snow With a bottle and a yell come follow me home Grit teeth another season in hell Laugh it off cause I'm doing well Goes to show you never can tell Goes to show you never can tell Blood thick vinegar and piss Too proud to call it quits I'm gonna do it just like this Gonna do it just like this Broke down and no ones home No company but the dial tone Lie back and wait for the day to break Lie back and wait for my next mistake Broke down still stuck in fear Can't see passed the rear view mirror Going deaf from the yelling in my ear As I piss away another goddamn year Broke down in a world so dark I don't mind cause I'm nothing but heart These streets are paved with piss and lies But I always walk on the sunny side Broke down no reason to be I got the world and it sings to me Yeah I'm broke but I'm alright I'll never give up my will to fight Grit teeth another season in hell Laugh it off cause I'm doing well Goes to show you never can tell Goes to show you never can tell Blood thick vinegar and piss Too proud to call it quits I'm gonna do it just like this Gonna do it just like this
