  • Supermaniac Soul



    (spoken sample: "take this first song and uh, dance
    I mean this, uh, first, let's start playing and dance.")

    Well I just shot a man to death
    Iґve gotta blow him out of my head
    He fired back and then it stopped
    A final shot and a final breath
    Afraid to stop and afraid to check
    The smell of fear, the color red
    Had him with a 2 inch shell

    Well itґs a brutal smell of death (* 4)

    Saw my reflection in a spoon.
    I had it with my non-adequate excuse
    Iґve got a supermanic soul
    Iґve pulled the trigger in the record room (* 2)

    Iґve put a stop to his loonytoons
    Iґve put him down in the record room

    These are for you
    Dead - break this
    These are for you
    Dead - break this
    Dead!

    (talking samples)

    These are for you
    Dead - break this
    These are for you
    Dead - break this * 3


    Whip Or Chain



    Don't wanna hear your voice
    Don't really know if I have a choice
    Don't wanna be the one that makes you forget

    You're choking on regret ( * 2)
    You're choking on death

    Don't think we've ever met
    Don't think you offered up a God give name
    Who did the talking then, the whip or the chain?
    You've got pleasure from the sentence of pain
    But then they get you with the burden of shame
    The true measure if the one that remains

    Don't wanna .. Don't wanna ..
    Don't wanna be your cane
    Don't wanna be your cane baby
    Don't wanna be your cane
    Don't wanna be your cane baby
    Don't wanna be your cane

    (very fast wailing sample:
    In a concrete cell,
    No soul would dare to tell
    She craves to cup his mind
    She makes him give them time
    She likes to throw a whip
    And see a young boy slip
    She likes to see him crawl
    Right up the chamber walls

    When their eyes are covered
    like vultures she hovers

    She gets her love and hate
    When they scream no more
    She gives them just one more

    Won't let you kill me just yet
    Don't even care if there's a price on my head
    Don't wanna ID up in a bloody refrain

    Don't wanna be your ..
    Don't wanna be your cane
    Don't wanna be your cane baby
    Don't wanna be your cane

    I said, I don't ...don't... I don't wanna be you cane (* 2)



    Bad Blood




    Wild skies
    Full moon and thoughts collide
    We look for answers in those catatonic, bloodshot eyes
    The eyes that vomit are the ones that are in love
    Those aren't tears,
    They're just bad bad blood

    Just bad bad blood!

    Wild lives
    The big surprise.
    We get our clues from what
    The funhouse mirrors authorize
    A ray of thought turns happy endings into mud
    Where there's denial, there's bad blood

    Chorus:

    (wailing sample:
    Do you remember the strain?
    Do you remember the pain?
    Do you remember the cause or the blame?)

    Bad Blood!

    (wailing sample:
    Do you remember need?
    Do you remember lust?
    Do you surrender your greed or your trust? )

    Bad Blood!

    Wild eyes
    He's finally come alive
    How'd all things mediocre
    Wind up all things all the time
    A steady stream of madness
    Rises to a flood
    The clock is ticking for Bad Blood

    Chorus.
    [fade out...]



    Eureka



    I seem to find myself each time I run away
    Don't give me vivid in some yester body (selling) days ?
    Sometimes they reappear just like the sands of time
    Or d'ya like some quick sand baby running off my summer wine

    Same faces broken homes
    Those memories have fled
    All tears within me now are dormant or dead
    My viens are bursting with a thirst that you cannot ignore

    Alright Eureka's Pile
    Now my saviour, or my whore

    There's a lot that they don't mind when things aren't what they seem
    I always wake up baby cos I always wake up me
    My life may ain't come to much
    Ignore my history

    Least my Eureka Pile can see some way I feel
    Ain't the way I see (* 2)

    My Eureka Pile and me.


    Step



    I need help
    I need help

    I don't know who I am no more
    I'm gonna get some help
    Help me

    [ Singing:

    Step! Step, step it up baby!
    Got a question for you: like, who, what, where, why?
    Are we even here?
    Or are we following alone like another lost Indian looking for his tribe?
    Oh dial the phone.
    We might as well find someone else.
    ???

    Grrr! ]

    (wails)

    I like to apologize to all my wonderful fans
    For sticking by me through such troubled times
    I love all you so much
    I wish I could take you all to the Betty Ford Clinic
    Yeah

    [ Singing:

    Step! Step it up baby!
    We gotta sell instutions of recovery,
    We gotta kill distrubutions of the pills I take!
    ???

    Grr!


    Step! Step it up baby!

    ...]

    I love all my fans
    Through these times of nakedness
    If I could I'd take any one of you with me
    Put you right underneath my pillow

    [fade out..]


    Nursing Home




    The moat in my eyes never bring me no sleep
    They just strap me inside with the demons I keep
    Gotta leave me alone gotta let it be lone
    Tired of living, too tired to die
    Makes the sharks keep swimming when he don't know why
    Gotta get the lean fin
    Only thin that he wears

    Nursing me to the movie that he shows
    Nursing me to the bureau and the ?
    Nursing me can't you leave me alone?
    Nursing me in a nursing home

    Sleeping and working and an old man
    Come just to profit my feet with a broken old hose
    Stop riding those rails
    Stop setting those sails

    He likes (boom boogie ??)
    He's got an old trombone
    While he's laughing at the fires with a broken beat phone
    Got a troubled soul
    But he's not that cold

    (Chorus)

    I've been nursed ten years in a nursing home!

    Stinking on water i could use me food
    He needed big fat gravy on the wake of pot roast
    Got a fire inside
    It's gonna burn him alive
    Talking and struggle till the roof is blown
    Got a bed and three squares in a nursing home
    Gonna say bye-bye
    He's gonna walk on by


    Kaif




    I love the silence I'm in.
    I think I dreamed this before
    Some lives seem so incomplete
    Some just keep coming back for more

    Where did the time go? (echoing) (*3)

    I can't remember how it end
    Don't even know who I am
    A fading memory
    A fading image redrawn
    Can't wait for ever more

    Where did the time go? (echoing) (*3)

    Remember things I never said
    I've seen the faces before
    I hope the future is dead
    The dead keep asking for more

    Where did the time go? (echoing) (*3)


    Vex & Siolence



    If the child slaughtered
    Then found later
    Wrapped up and withered
    After many years
    Crawled out from under untold layers
    To take a shallow breath and listen
    What would it hear?

    Would the child answer
    Full of anger
    Full of rage & bloodlust spoken but never shown
    With a seeming riddle
    Or a puzzle
    Neither the brutal nor the timid could have known

    Deep down inside, too dark to see
    The sex commands a shot of something
    What violent alter could there be?

    Here is the end
    Here is nothing
    Nothing

    After breathing in the beginning?
    After beating through what wasn't there
    Death became the only answer, but not the cure

    The final act became the meaning
    No-one cared

    Deep down inside, too dark to see
    The sex commands a shot of something
    What violent alter could there be?

    Here is the end
    Here is nothing
    Nothing

    [fade out]
