Some of us

Some of us ruin it for the rest of us,
Admit what you have done,
Stop ruining all the fun,
It's time for you to take some responsibility,
Stop blaming everyone for your incompetency,
The television it's my mom and dad,
And you can blame it when you think that I've been bad,
So burn yourself even though it’s hot,
Your common sense is not used a lot,
If you get a scrape it's time to litigate,
For your mistake I'll compensate,

Victory Smokes
01:57
|
|

I light my victory smokes, the battles almost won
I sit and light a match and chat here with my chums
Were we all just brainwashed, was that their master plan
To spread the blood of foreign innocents across the land
Can we take a minute, let this all sink in
Stop the war or let history repeat again
I light my victory smokes, the battles almost won
I sit and light a match and sit here with my chums
killing, dying , warring, it never stops
Pain and suffering, endless feelings of fucking loss
So lets take this moment here and make something to last
or even just learn now, learn now from the past

Island President
02:55
|
|

Soon we won't have any earth to stand on,
Which is great for the fish,
Except the coral reefs are bleached,
We've got nothing left to eat,
Soon every island nation,
With a low elevation,
Will be swept into the sea,
To become a distant memory,
You see we never fix the problem,
We just keep on adding tape,
But how much can it take,
Before the seal decides to break?
And we're good at breaking records,
And breaking ice off the icebergs,
Washing sand away from the Maldives,
And washing bloodstains from our hands,
We're the island president,
Turned Kevin Costner,
And this is the water world,
We're searching for a land,
That's tattooed on a girl,
Sixty foot trimaran,
Above the cities that we sank,
Above the tombs of whom we thank,

Eco-Terrorist
01:20

|

Wiebo left the city to start a new life,
He brought his best friend and his best friend brought his wife,
For five years they lived secluded,
Till one day big gas intruded,
The top six is yours they concluded,
But the gas below is ours undisputed,
So they drilled their wells for their sour gas,
And the sour gas it soured the grass,
And the live stock aborted and it died,
The wives miscarried and they cried,
But the wells kept getting erected,
And the family was misdirected,
As they wrote letters to those elected,
But their hearing it was selected,
With the RCMP hand in hand,
They searched Wiebo and they searched his land,
Looking for some contraband,
Looking for a leg to stand,
He was not convicted of any crime,
But they wanted him evicted so he did time,
Religious fanatic out of his mind?
Eco - Terrorist, one of a kind?

Ever get that type of funny feeling?
Like some ones breathing down your neck?
And that right now obey, there's nothing you can do, these eyes they're Always watching you, Take ya away for what you do!
They're Watching You, They're Watching You
Then you're home now when your asleep come on
They're Watching You, There Watching You
Through the tvs and the tubes
They're Watching You, They're Watching You
They're Watching You, They're Watching …..You!
And these eyes they always gotta lurk
Behind my back they always stare
Watch the death of privacy, through the airwaves you're to blind to see
They're in your homes and what you wear
Ya its kinda hard to fucking believe
These eyes they're always watching me
Fuckin my life make it hard to breathe

Ignorance Is Strength

Now Somethings Wrong!
I feel it in my brain!
These constant contradictions are driving me insane!
and I always fight!
no matter how hard I try
but I always find my self here living out the lie
Now what do say? What you think that's funny?
Your institutionalized kid, a slave to all that money.
Born into a system made of wealth and fucking debt.
You think that's bad well you aint seen nothing yet.
and you think society bad take a look a religion
that fucking shit is worse than....science fiction.
Ignorance Is Strength

Scrap City

Scrap city,
Where you can be the boss,
Scrap city,
The things that people toss,
A little piece of copper,
A little piece of brass,
A piece of aluminum sitting in the grass,
One man's treasure is another man's trash,
I'll recycle your metal and I'll make some cash!
Yeah!
Scrap city,
Where you can be the boss,
Scrap city,
The things that people toss,
Rolling in the van in the middle of the night,
Going through your trash with a magnet and a light,
We're urban miners and there's treasure to be found,
If we're not sure it's metal we drop it to the ground!

Joy Camp
03:28
|
|

I see them in the mirror,
I see them in the bus,
I see that they are most of us,
I can't see the shackle,
But I can see the pain,
Working everyday with no gain,
Working for the one percent,
While the ninety nine maintain decent,
I wonder if the slaves back when, knew then,
That they were enslaved men?
I'd welcome you to joy camp,
But you've been here all along,
And if you think that things are different now,
Then you'd be wrong,
Because you can't see the shackle,
It doesn't mean you're free,
The cage may be bigger,
But it's still captivity,
Working to the maximum while getting paid the minimum,
We make and sell everything,
But we can't afford anything,
And your freedom depends on the size of your wealth,
Do you have what it takes to free yourself?
Because these shackles aren't made of steel,
And only a percent is real,
I'd welcome you to joy camp,
But you have been here since day one,
And we've got forced labour for everyone,
And the gate is always open so feel free to leave,
But we know that it is easier just to believe,

Slippin' Away

So you think you're righteous
You keep holding that course
But we're loosing all our freedoms
So take a look in the mirror as we're going down the drain
Watch it all as it slips away
We're sitting here pining over those better days
Helpless apathetic
You keep holding that course
But we're loosing all our freedoms
So take a look in the mirror cuz you're who's to blame

Straight Outta Ontario
01:56

Give me an amp and give me a bass,
I'll play anytime, I'll play any place,
Save me a toke and save me a beer,
A piece of floor in a place that's near,
All my friends they come and they go,
But I'll be back at the next show,
Cuz there's no place that I'd rather be,
Right here, right now, you and me,
The mornings broke and it's time for me to go,
Back in the van I'm off to another show,
And when I'll be back? That I do not know,
The 401 straight out of Ontario,

Point of No Return
02:19
|
|

So this is the end?
And all you've got is time?
And your time, your time has run out,
Your time, your time has run out,
It's a one way trip,
No return ticket,
And your train is at it's platform,
And it's time for you to board,
Cuz your time, your time has run out,
Your time, your time has run out,
We've exhausted all our options,
Can spare no more resource,
But we never wanna fucking give up,
But the odds are all against you,
Cuz your time, your time has run out,
Your time, your time has run out,
No Hollywood ending,
No sequel to your book,
No chance for redemption,
Because we've reached the point of no return,
Cuz your time, your time has run out,
Your time, your time has run out,
And the sands they lay at the bottom of your glass,
And the waves they keep getting smaller...

Corexit

Corexit poisons all the land
And there’s oil an inch beneath the sand
And there’s a lake at the bottom of the sea
And those who recognize disappear mysteriously
British Petroleum swept it under the rug
They got a closest full of skeletons military thug
And they can keep on writing zeroes
To do away with would be heroes
Corexit banned in the UK
But Corexit is sprayed in the USA
And the president swam so it's ok
But the president swam in Andrew's Bay
