The Art Of Breaking Up (Japanese bonus track)
*
. . .


Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to the show
We want it all, we want it now, we wanted you to know
So keep your hands and legs inside the ride and take it slow
It's bullshit by design, we're out to blow your mind

I ain't no Steve McQueen
I'm like a dead popstar in a magazine
[?] in quarantine
With pro tools gutting up the hit machine

So come and take more, take more
You can't help us out, No
Now escape more, escape more
You can't help us out, No
And break more, break more
You can't help us out, No
We play hard out on the asphalt (hard out on the asphalt)
Don't think you're cut out for this

Save me from myself
This ain't a test, it's a state of emergency
Cause I can't stop myself
I'm trying my best
Tell me what else could go wrong

I dream like hollow [?]
I got a knife in my back and a song to scream
I watch the walls cave in, inhaling gasoline
It's like that in the middle of this party scene

So come and take more, take more
You can't take us out, No
Now escape more, escape more
You can't take us out, No
And break more, break more
You can't take us out
We play hard out on the asphalt (hard out on the asphalt)
Don't think you're cut out for this

Save me from myself
This ain't a test, it's a state of emergency
Cause I can't stop myself
I'm trying my best
Tell me what else could go wrong

This is some good shit, where'd you get it?
You're such a fucking hypocrite, it's so appropriate
I'm feeling so delinquent and all degenerate
This is some good shit, man where'd you get it?

[?]

Save me from myself
This ain't a test, it's a state of emergency
Cause I can't stop myself
I'm trying my best
Tell me what else could go wrong

Save me from myself
This ain't a test, it's a state of emergency
Cause I can't stop myself
I'm trying my best
Tell me what else could go wrong

Thanks for coming to the show
[?]
It's bullshit by design
Straight out, just lose your mind

. . .


Hell Yeah! Woooooo

[?] Clock, trippin' with the flavour of hip hop
Spittin' out venom as I'm watching all your heads bob
Representing for the outcasts and the have nots
Needing to find light in a world that has blacked out

Put your middle fingers up (Yeah put em up)
We've had enough
We take our shots at the gin we have no tuck
We know exactly why you're here, so make it clear (let's go)
We know you want to (Let's go, Let's go)

Hell Yeah! Hell Yeah!
We want control
Hell Yeah! Hell Yeah!
I see you call [?]
Hell Yeah! Hell Yeah!
I got the microphone
And we're picking up speed like a rolling stone

Let's Go! We can't live forever
One note! The louder the better
So Let's Go! We're in this together
Can't you hear me?
Hell Yeah! Let's Go!
Let's Go! We can't live forever
One note! The louder the better
So Let's Go! We're in this together
Can't you hear me?
Hell Yeah! Let's Go!

Rising from the ash [?] it's no doubt
Swinging from the rafters are the kids who never sold out
Holding out for hope, this shit is dope, hear the crowds shout
Fighting to survive, one day we'll make em tap out

Raise your voices up (Yeah raise em up)
We've had enough
We're standing up and now we're being heard the gloves are off
The voice is loud, we have the crowd, the time is now (let's go)
We know you want to (Let's go, Let's go)

Hell Yeah! Hell Yeah!
We want control
Hell Yeah! Hell Yeah!
I see you call [?]
Hell Yeah! Hell Yeah!
I got the microphone
And we're picking up speed like a rolling stone

Let's Go! We can't live forever
One note! The louder the better
So Let's Go! We're in this together
Can't you hear me
Hell Yeah! Let's Go!
Let's Go! We can't live forever
One note! The louder the better
So Let's Go! We're in this together
Can't you hear me
Hell Yeah! Let's Go!

Get up tonight
Stand up and fight
They are here
They are in sight, they're in sight
And I can't go alone on this microphone
Is this on? Is this on!?!?

This flow is definitive, makes [?] again
Boys with no choice, it's so limited
Hell Yeah! Come on!
Hell Yeah! It's On!
Bounce to the boom of the beat of the drum

Let's Go! We can't live forever
One note! The louder the better
So Let's Go! We're in this together
Can't you hear me
Hell Yeah! Let's Go!
Let's Go! We can't live forever
One note! The louder the better
So Let's Go! We're in this together
Can't you hear me
Hell Yeah! Let's Go!

Hell Yeah!

We got bruised wrists
Kick flips and an ill invasion
They say loose lips sink ships but might get you probation
And we're deep six in the mix ripping round rotation
Chucking cheap tricks and kung fu kicks just to get sensation
So turn your radio off
Press one for love
You got to cough to get off
What's done is done
Turn your radio off
It's never enough
Want to change it all
I want it all
But you can't always get what you want, you can't always get what you want
Give up, give up, give up
The dream is over
We lost the buzz
And now we're running sober
Give up, give up, give up
Don't even bother
Can't get what we want
Give up, give up, give up
The dream is over
We're going slow
And driving on the shoulder
Give up, give up, give up
Don't even bother
We'll never get what we want
We want starships and banana clips to start a new religion
And no post scripts or sensor ship to help define our vision
With a red brick or double click we move with great precision
Like with arsenic we're getting sick of all our indecision
It's like holding onto pieces when the puzzle doesn't fit
It's like the feeling that you get right before you hit
It's like the ground opened up and swallowed you where you sit
It's like you'd kill for what you had 'cause now you got shit
It's like you can't always get what you want
Opened up and swallowed you
You can't always get what you want
It's like a time bomb
You can't always get what you want
Opened up and swallowed you
You can't always get what you want

. . .


The lights are on but there is no one home
Yeah I'm the type of guy that shouldn't be left alone
They say just one more night of observation
There's nothing like a permanent vacation

I break down like you want me to
But I will not give control to you
Sniff like a pound of glue
Forget all the things you put me through
Dial up the residue
Now I'm nuts, just like a blue cashew

I go Psycho (psycho)
Psycho (psycho)

And all I want is to go home just for a bit (hey hey hey)
But these padded rooms are the shit!

Whoa!
I'm happy in my mental health
Whoa!
These conversations with myself
Whoa!
They say that only time will tell
Whatever, I'm happy in my mental health
I'm happy in my mental health

1, 2, 123, Go!

Hey meet a friend of mine, now where'd he go?
He's probably sitting there but you would never know
They say just one more shock (yeeow!)
Try not to resist
They say lie down
And bite on this

[?] shocks away
But the voices in my head are here to stay
[?]
I get more drugs than DEA
One day they'll do a play
They take your shoelaces away

Psycho (psycho)
Psycho (psycho)

And all I want is to go home just for a bit (hey hey hey)
But these padded rooms are the shit!

Whoa!
I'm happy in my mental health
Whoa!
These conversations with myself
Whoa!
They say that only time will tell
Whatever I'm happy in my mental health

Straight jacket
Bad habit
Cuz I live for the habit
This static
Illmatic
Double dose is just like magic
Straight jacket
Let's have it
You pump up all my panic
Welcome this is my life
A padded room up in the attic

And all I want is to go home just for a bit (hey hey hey)
But these padded rooms are the shit!

Whoa!
I'm happy in my mental health
Whoa!
These conversations with myself
Whoa!
They say that only time will tell
Whatever I'm happy in my mental health

Psycho psycho
I'm happy in my mental health
Psycho psycho
I'm happy in my mental health
Psycho psycho
I'm happy in my mental health
Psycho psycho
I'm happy in my mental health

Watching anvils falling all around
They break our bones when they hit the ground
Their sirens scream without a sound
So we numb ourselves with drink to drown

Got it clocked in, bar coded names
See 0s and 1s, compose again
Now the roofs on fire but it starts to rain
so clench your fists and enjoy the pain

Think back to the ways of yesterday
It was the "I" in team, raised renegade
To the punk rock clubs and razor blades
Where throwaway kids could serenade

We lost control again
We lost control again
We lost control
Gotta find a way to make amends
To fight the end
take back what time has stole

We are the angry, the innocent
We are the hungry, the discontent
We are the marquis, the 1%
We are the bourgeoisie of argument

(Here we go, Here we go One time)
Dropping down the well that time forgot
These scars they show they care a lot
The sky would tremble like a juggernaut
At the things we do and what we saw

But one by one we fall the same
How much to lose, not much to gain
So have you hope on another train
Then pinch yourself and see what remains

Think back to the ways of yesterday
So we never even have to get paid to play
Got a backpack filled with a lot to say
But the words have only thrown away

We lost control again
We lost control again
We lost control
Gotta find a way to make amends
To fight the end
take back what time has stole

We are the angry, the innocent
We are the hungry, the discontent
We are the marquis, the 1%
We are the bourgeoisie of argument

We won't wait
We were the lost, but we've found
We can't wait
Our lungs are calling
We won't wait
We're not the fallen, the underground
You won't recognise us

We are the angry, the innocent
We are the hungry, the discontent
We are the marquis, the 1%
We are the bourgeoisie of argument

We lost control again
We lost control again
We lost control
Gotta [?]
And I'm wrecking em
There's no use settlin'

So when will the waiting end
If we don't pretend like a shotgun awakening
To pull off a pinned down land
Shed your skin cause they is shuddering

So tie off the bleeding end and start again
The streets are barreling
We're freezing to reinvent our miscontent
The sound is deafening

We want control again
We want control again
We want control
Gotta find a way to make amends
To fight the end
Take back what time has stole

We are the angry, the innocent
We are the hungry, the discontent
We are the marquis, the 1%
We are the bourgeoisie of argument

We won't wait no
We were the lost, but we've found
We can't wait no
Our lungs are calling
We won't wait no
We're not the fallen, the underground
You won't recognise us now

We are the angry, the innocent
We are the hungry, the discontent
We are the marquis, the 1%
We are the bourgeoisie of argument

We want control again
We want control again
We want control
The underground, you won't recognise us now
We want control again
We want control again
We want control
The underground, you won't recognise us now

. . .


We got licked, just a bit, right outside the show
The t stripped, then your manners flew right out the door
It's like this, Who you keep textin on the phone?
It's like that, I'm not the only one with [whoops to owe?]

It's automatic, don't you point your finger at me
It's so tragic, you should be a Kennedy
It's automatic, you're pulling me like gravity
You're putting me down, pulling me down six feet

Hate me, Hate me, tell me what thought would make you
Break me, break me, go on and shatter me
Cause lately you run me into the ground
And you can hate me, hate me, Call it a victory
But you'll see lately, not going easily,
Cause I'm not falling down and you won't
Get the best of me now

A fat lip, finger flip, and an insult to go
The record skips, you got issues like a girl in porn
It's like this, you act crazy from tour to four
It's like that, I can't take all of the blame no more

It's automatic, don't you point your finger at me
It's so tragic, you should be a Kennedy
It's automatic, you're pulling me like gravity
You're putting me down, pulling me down six feet

Hate me, Hate me, tell me what thought would make you
Break me, break me, go on and shatter me
Cause lately you run me into the ground
And you can hate me, hate me, Call it a victory
But you'll see lately, not going easily,
Cause I'm not falling down and you won't
Get the best of me now

I didn't want to get into another battle (Hey Hey)
I didn't want to make the claws and bones rattle (Hey Hey)
I didn't want to get into another battle (Hey Hey)
It's automatic how you throw it all away

So hate me now
You can't break me down
So just hate me now
You can't break me down

And you can hate me, Hate me, tell me what thought would make you
Break me, break me, go on and shatter me
Cause lately you run me into the ground
And you can hate me, hate me, Call it a victory
But you'll see lately, not going easily,
Cause I'm not falling down and you won't
Get the best of me now

It's automatic
It's so tragic
It's automatic

. . .


This is me
I've got a nasty sense of humour and a case of high anxiety
If you please
I would rather be alone, let the water running judge me
So I got my life together, but it's half of what it should be
So you think you can make it better?
You better help me, help me

Hang on but prepare
Can't live up to you
Hold on, Hold on
There's a part of me that can't escape my insecurities
Hang on, This is me

Can't you see
I got a perfect explanation but keep it deep inside of me
Pardon me
But if you really want to know it then you better learn to judge me
So you've got you're life together, but you say you gotta have more
So you think I could make it better?
Just be careful what you wish for

Hang on but prepare
Can't live up to you
Hold on, Hold on
There's still a part of me that can't escape my insecurities
Hang on, This is me

Paper clip prediction
But these pictures are deceiving
Cause their colours lost their place
And now they're dripping down and bleeding
And they're running and running away
Packed it up and leaving
And these dreams turn to nightmares
Like a promise with no meaning

So be careful what you wish for
You just might get it
If this is what you live for
You might as well forget it
You don't know what you're in for
This war will never end
Be careful what you wish for
You just might get it (get it get it)
You just might get it (get it get it)
So hold tight

Hang on but prepare
Can't live up to you
Hold on, Hold on
There's still a part of me that can't escape my insecurities
Hang on, This is me (Be careful what you wish for)

Hang on but prepare
Can't live up to you
Hold on, Hold on (You just might get it)
There's still a part of me that can't escape my insecurities
Hang on, This is me (Be careful what you wish for)
(Be careful what you wish for) This is me
(Be careful what you wish for) This is me

I heard opposites attract
So you're stuck with me
I'm like Jack Kerouac, on the road for weeks
But when I come home you'll be there for me right?
Without you, I'll never make it
I got a sick sense that I got a reason to worry
And sometimes I'm dense but these thoughts come in a flurry
You say they're nonsense but I dreamt you left in a hurry
I don't think I'll ever make it alone
Annihilate
I'm wide awake
Don't walk away
I'm suffocating
Don't change your mind
Don't be the death of me
If you want me here I am
Counting down to a zero
I got a panic attack
Like you wouldn't believe
And my breathing's out of whack, like a drum machine
I know if I pass out, you'd resuscitate me right?
Without you, I'll never make it
Is it okay now or did you meet someone better?
Without a mohawk with a real job and a sweater
Leaving me shell shocked steady getting ready for a header
I don't think I'll ever make it alone
Standing on the edge of the great divide
You're pushing all the right buttons to make worlds collide
Would you stab me in the back like a homicide
Or leave me buried in your bullshit like a landslide
Are you biding your time with me waiting for someone better to come along?
As I sit and I scream this song
Are you biding your time with me waiting for someone better to come along?
If you are then I proved you wrong
Both ends burn
I'll be waiting for you
I won't turn
I'll be waiting for you
Both ends burn
I'll be waiting for you

. . .


Drop in
Call us degenerate, heads in a purple haze
Breaking our necks with crime that pays
It's the war of rolex versus renegades
So place your bets and burn beds you made
You know we're never
Bending or breaking
Forsaking anything
Bonded together
We can share in the pain
And we can feel it
Believe it
Timing is everything
And this time
We're going out with a bang
Right now I can feel the world is spinning
Right now fight for a new beginning
Right now ignite and light the shape of the world your living and I'm sticking with the fuse so tight
Take me kicking and screaming
Or give me something to believe in
Don't let me down, we're running on high
Ignite worldwide
We fight the eminent threat like a macrophage
Blood tears and sweat with a war we wage
If we can't get the key we'll break the cage
Bleed for liberty and get machines to rage
You know we're never
Fearing or faking
Braking for anyone
We come together
Yeah we're just having fun
And we can feel it
Believe it
There goes the neighborhood
And this time
I think you misunderstood
We've been dreaming it, bleeding it, believing what they say
While they're killing it, leaving it and lying all the way
Heard the counterfeit syndicate is growing everyday
But we're over it, today we're gonna light the way
Ignite
Light it up
Ignite tonight

. . .


No matter how hard I try
I always find a reason why
To waste my day with you
I got a list of demands and no antidote
Green thumb on my hand and some hope to float
Since then you've had a hold of me by the throat
Back alley, on the wall, the graffiti wrote
Hold on
Wait up
Enjoy the smoke
Take time
Red wine
And the levy broke
It's hard to throw away what the rush dragged in
Wanna go all the way while the record spins
Wasting away the day again
Wasting away the day
I've been wasting all the day away
I'm so close yet far away
Still I'm wasting away the day
You haunt me and you hypnotize
You write the tale of me demise
Begins and ends with you
I got a one way ticket and a fight to throw
I'm a house of cards falling like dominos
You will always be the one that I can't let go
The hieroglyphics on my arm mean take it slow
Hold on
Wait up
Enjoy the jokes
Take time
Red wine
And the moment spoke
It's hard to throw away what the rush dragged in
Wanna go all the way while the record spins

. . .


I won't be there
I won't do anything
No I won't
I won't be there to catch you
If you fall
I won't be there
I won't do anything
No I won't
I won't be there to catch you
God I wish I never met you
You're a cheap thrill weak will trippin' to bikini kill
A glass home of chloroform vaporized in the storm
Oh!
The junkie and the halo
You're so burned out no doubt crawling as your falling out
Glycerin blistering got you underneath my skin
Oh!
The junkie and the halo
I won't do anything
No I won't be there to save you
And I won't be there to catch you when you fall
I won't do anything
So build up the walls around you
I'll be leaving you where I found you
You're the fun one always spun baggage weighs about a ton
A strung out tongue on my empty lung
Oh!
The junkie and the halo
The last stop before the pop as you bottom from the top
A safety net made of thread to stop your drop
Oh!
The junkie and the halo
Shooting out in the middle of a canon of metal
I'll give you a hand out and or a call while ya try to stay level
It's like the minute that you fall punks howl at the devil
And I hope ya realize you're a cliche and not a rebel
Seep in your chemicals
In your brain
I won't be waiting for you

. . .


Started off as I fall in a ball of flame burning out on your sentiment
It's all in vain
Shot your 44. caliber
Words with aim
You mighta killed the heart but you left the brain
Devastated and I hate it see your eyes are insane
Gray and dissipate buiolding just like rust on a chain drained
Dislocated echo in the things you say
You might have killed the heart but you left the brain
Your words are making me sick
No more lies
Enough with your rhetoric, whoa-oh
What do you got to hide?
Whoa-oh
You're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Whoa-oh
What do ya got to hide?
Whoa-oh
You're dead inside
What a wonderful lie
Don't you feel alive?
Cut away
Cut it all away now
Cut me off
At the pass, as OI hydroplane
Crashing down from your promises, all were fake
Shot your 44. caliber
Words with aim
You mighta killed the heart
But you left the brain
Formulated and I'm fated to withstand the pain
Wave of generated conscience from the edge of a blade
Feigned and fabricated echo in the things you say
You might have killed the heart
But you left the brain
Switch all the lights off
Tell me what you want from me
Take my time and my energy
Turning you heart off
Come about so easily
It's not enough
But it's plenty
Bleed in the black out
You said you'd be there for me
Now you're gone and we're history
Screaming you lungs out
Say you want what's best for me
Give it up
You abandoned me

. . .


Anesthetized by these lies
I don't believe in truth
And I apologize
But my sacrifice
Has nothing to do with you
'Cause I've been victimized
Like ocean size
From the blood your needle drew
And I apologize
But my demise
Has everything to do with you
Settle up with the devil
Close the basement door
Full force on the shovel
And unearth the floor
You were there one day
But you're here no more
Like a stroke through the heart
And you play the whore
'Cause you stole my soul
Kleptomaniac
Now I can hate myself take my anger back
Love is a violent attack
You cut me down
I feel no pain now
This nightmare is almost through
I hit the ground
No need to feel now
My time here is all but done
All but done
Now I'm up in the attic
Where the rafter's strong
So many reasons to be tragic
And the list is long
If you think I've lost hope
You were never wrong
'Cause the churning of the rope
Is my battle song
Settle up with the devil
Close the basement door
Full force on the shovel
And unearth the floor
You we're there one day
But you're here no more
Like a stake through the heart
And you play the whore
'Cause you burned my souol
Pyromaniac
You can hate yourself take your anger back
Love is a violent attack
I can't stand on my own feet now
I can't crawl forever and a day
Felt like I was getting stronger
Before you turned and walked away
I apologize
But my demise
Has everything to do with you

. . .


Fuck It!

I get the feeling 'cus she left without a reason but
I Don't care! She's a fuckin nightmare!

Take your promise and your lies
Take your lows and your highs
Like a rollercoaster ride
Like a bullet meant to fly by (woo!)
That's a sigh of releif
So listen up I'll tell you why
You're gonna get what you deserve
What goes around comes around
Haven't you heard??
Like a boomerang bound around the curb
You're gonna get what you deserve

I take back the life that I gave you
I take back all my fucking money too
I take back everything, except the part where I said we were through

I take it back all the problems that I gave you
I take it back all the dinners that I bought you
I take it back, the time you stole my heart my soul, I don't even miss you!

I take back(yeah!) everything, except the part where I said we were through
I take back all the shit I gave you
I take back every word I said to you
I take back everything, except the part where I said we were through

. . .


And a crooked hook in his stride
Walking wonderland
Are you taking me for a ride?
I know it's on again
I guess some friends are hard to eye
I can't deny
I can't see why
Smell blood in the water so
Attack
Attack
Didn't know how far things feel off track
You wanna string me up, let me hang slash to slack
Attack
Attack
Stab me in the back
Bail out
Go on
Bail out
Never was a friend of mine
Try and try and
Never turn your back cause they are right behind you
Lying down as you fall
All the true friends stab you in the front
And never take it bad
CAuse you have what they want
So all for none and none for all
History
And time are all we got
Dissecting lies and rumors in the thick of the plot
Cause you're fucking up on purpose and that means a lot
These ties that rot
Come and take a shot
You really need it bad so
Attack
Attack
And what's a bust is our trust is fading to black
'Cause the heart inside your chest beats eroded and cracked
Attack
Attack
Stab me in the back
Bail out
Go on
Bail out
You let me down
You're jumping off the third floor
Trust is out the back door
What are these friends for?

. . .


You are
My one and only
But one can seem so fucking lonely
Shut up
Hear me out
I got a bad habit
I can't live without something wicked this way comes
Infidelity
It's only sex, I'm just having fun
I'm the king of unaccountability
I was born with a devil on my shoulder
I had a guilty heart
Right from the start
I was born with a devil on my shoulder
It's ripping me apart
My hands are tied
With this feeling comes no conscience
Do or die
I'm content in misery
Don't even try understanding all this pain
The reason why
I don't know
Maybe you're to blame
You're so blind it's easy
Do anything
Just to try to please me
Shut up
Listen to what I say
Time is running out
You should bail today
Something wicked this way comes
Guilt inside of me
The king of pain I'm his only son
Make you wish you'd never put your trust in me
Wake up
This is never gonna end
Wait up
You're one in ten
I'll break up
Your will within and straight up
Do it all again
If you wait up all night, I'll be burning daylight
Me and my libido are in on the take, right?
Break what I want and leav you by the wayside
Promise I'll stop you can trust what I say
Psych
When I'm on top you'll be droppin' down the scale like

. . .


Everybody welcome to the art of losing
I never thought that I'd be giving up
Take your best shot, it's ego-bruising
One for the road and I think I've had enough

I owe you! Pain and suffering
You owe me! A sense of humor
I know you! Want the last word
Too bad, goodbye!

And all the words that we're saying spinning in circles
Over and over I let this go
And now this game that we're playing getting us nowhere
What are we waiting for?

(Hey!) Let’s break it down
(Hey!) Let’s give it up
This is the sound of me bleeding: Whoa oh-oh!
(Hey!) Let’s break it down, the Art of Breaking Up
This is the sound of me leaving: Whoa oh-oh!

Take another jab and say that you hate me
Win another medal in the Art of Breaking Up
Pack up and threaten to leave me
Promise you I won't tell you to stop!

I owe you! An empty apartment
You owe me! My bank account
I know you! Want the last word
Too bad, goodbye!

And all this time that we're killing never returning
Over and over just let this go
And all the lies that we're telling getting us nowhere
What are we waiting for?

(Hey!) Let’s break it down
(Hey!) Let’s give it up
This is the sound of me bleeding: Whoa oh-oh!
(Hey!) Let’s break it down, the Art of Breaking Up
This is the sound of me leaving: Whoa oh-oh!

Here's the part where you are screaming: Whoa oh-oh! (Hey! Hey!)
Here's the part where I am leaving: Whoa oh-oh! (Hey! Hey!)
I've had enough
You've had enough
We've had enough; can’t take it…

Let me break it down, the Art of Breaking Up
This is sound of me bleeding: Whoa oh-oh

(Hey!) Let’s break it down
(Hey!) Let’s give it up
This is the sound of me bleeding: Whoa oh-oh!
(Hey!) Let’s break it down, the Art of Breaking Up
This is the sound of me leaving: Whoa oh-oh!

This is the sound of me leaving: (The Art of Breaking Up!) Whoa oh-oh!
This is the sound of me screaming: Whoa oh-oh!
This is the sound of me leaving: (The Art of Breaking Up!) Whoa oh-oh!
This is the sound of me screaming: Whoa oh-oh!

This is the sound (Hey!)
This is the sound (Hey!)
This is the sound of leaving: Whoa oh-oh! Whoa oh-oh! Whoa oh-oh!

Tonight we're gonna rule the world again
Plug it in, steal the girls again
Scissor kicks, bitchin licks and
Leather chaps and finger taps and
Tonight we're gonna let the roof cave in
Raise hell, passing out again
Spandex, whipping necks and
Mic stands, leopard head bands

Plug in tune out lets start the show
Its time to throw down here we go
Don't touch that volume button
We don't care if the SWAT team comes knockin'

Hey ho, welcome to the jungle
Oh no, where is Mr. Bungle?
Holiday in Cambodia
Help me Knights of Cydonia
The bulls are on parade
There's anarchy in the UK
Cities all on flame with rock and roll tonight

Tonight we're getting metal signs and
They'll crowd surf, jump in time again
Guitars, whammy bars and
High fives, stage dives and
Tonight we're gonna melt your face and
There'll be pounding bass again
String bends, leather fringe and
Motorbikes, metal spikes and

Plug in tune out lets start the show
Its time to throw down here we go
Don't touch that volume button
We don't care if the SWAT team comes knockin'

Hey ho, hi my name is Jonas
Oh no, our parents might disown us
Rock you like a hurricane
There's Cherub Rocks in LA Grange
The Mississippi Queen
She just won't talk dirty to me
Story of my life is just rock and roll all nite

We got burn outs and in house we're down to play
And if your down with the sound let me hear you say
We're no sell outs so you can put your cash away
Cuz the basement stays open like early late

We got burn outs and in house we're down to play
And if your down with the sound let me hear you say
We're no sell outs so you can put your cash away
Cuz the basement stays open like early late

Hey ho, hit me with your best shot
On no, sabotage, I can't stop
The devil went down to Georgia
Pride and joy with a barracuda
It's raining blood on me
The cult of personality
The number of the beast is one.

Hey ho, welcome to the jungle
Oh no, where is Mr. Bungle?
Holiday in Cambodia
Help me Knights of Cydonia
The bulls are on parade
There's anarchy in the UK
Cities all on flame with rock and roll tonight
