1. A few ...
The Obsessed ~ To Protect & To Serve

Anguished eyes of the city of suffering
Seeking guidance, believing in love
Some fools who want something for nothing
Wear the badge of the cowards above

By the power Big Brother has vested
Your decisions must be honest and true
Your courage and your faith will be tested
Our children’s futures are resting with you

Cro-Mags ~ Malfunction

I just can't get through to you
Despite all the ways I try or any of the things I do
Maybe I'd be better off talkin to a wall
Cause you ain't making any sense at all

I'm walkin and I'm talkin
And I'm tryin and I'm lyin
But I just ain't getting through to you!
I'm walkin and I'm talkin
And I'm tryin and I'm lyin
But I just ain't getting through to you!

Am I just wastin, just wasting all my precious time?
Cause I ain't wastin a breath on you or any of your kind
If you had any brains you would open your mind
I guess you're just afraid of what you're gonna find

It's a malfunction...!

Graveyard ~ Don’t Take Us For Fools

Sometimes we gotta get up and break down the system that’s keeping us down / Sometimes we gotta get up and realize that this isn’t right!

Clutch ~ The Regulator

Oh, I see that lantern trimmed low burning in our home
And though I feel like crying, I swear tonight I'll cry no more

And how many times have I prayed
That I would get lost along the way?

Dream with the feathers of angels stuffed beneath your head
The regulator's swinging pendulum
Come with me and walk the longest mile

Is his wallet leather? Is his wallet fat?
For not a year later it's got you lying on your back
You should have closed your windows and got another dog
You should have chained up all the doors and switched up all the locks

And how many times have I prayed
The angels would speed me away?

Dream with the feathers of angels stuffed beneath your head
The regulator's swinging pendulum
Come with me and walk the longest mile

Melvins ~ Sacrifice

Can you hear the war cry?
It's time to enlist
The people speak as one
The cattle, the crowd
Those too afraid to live
Demand a sacrifice
Of your life

Can you smell their stinking breath?
Listen to them
Wheezing and gasping and
Chanting their slogans
It's a grave digger's song
Praising God & State
So the Nation will live
So we all can remain as cattle

Can you smell the fresh blood
Steaming into the soil?
As our patriots, Fathers, mothers and lovers
Admire the military style
Praising God and the State
Crying tears of pride
For all the fools slaughtered
For the maimed, the dying and the dead
So the Nation will live
So the people will remain as cattle

They demand a sacrifice
They demand a sacrifice
They demand a sacrifice
Of your life
