All the Pieces

I want to tell you
But I've got dirt on the tip of my tongue
I don't want to hurt you
I just want to break every one of your toys
I want to believe you
But all your lies seem to be choking my airways
I don't want to defeat you
There's just one thing that I want you to do
Take all the pieces out
And turn the puzzle upside-down (x 2)
It's time to celebrate this waste of space
Trying to see you
Is making me blind with confusion and lies
I don't want to free you
I just want to mess with the secrets inside
So much for dreaming
The trouble I find is distorting my mind
I don't want to be king
There's just one thing that I'm trying to do
Take all the pieces out
And turn the puzzle upside-down (x 2)
It's time to celebrate this waste of space
Take all the pieces out
And turn the puzzle upside-down (x 2)
It's time to celebrate this waste of space
Take all the pieces out
And turn the puzzle upside-down (x 2)
It's time to celebrate this waste of space

Not of this World

Want you to know your a beautiful girl
Born of a woman but not of this world
Want you to know my intentions are good
Emotions are easily misunderstood
Not gonna let you get away
Not gonna let you get away
This time
Want to remember the beautiful days
Lord I am grateful in so many ways
Walk with me baby, into the great unknown
Beautiful woman, don't leave me alone
Not gonna let you get away
Not gonna let you get away
This time (x 3)

Bleed the Earth
02:48

There are creatures
In this world
Right beside us
Right beside us
There are secrets in this earth
Right beneath us
There to feed us
Bleed the earth
Raise the dead
Feed the earth
Rise instead (x 2)
Safe in houses
Safe in beds
Safe in numbers
Safe in dread
Bleed the earth
Raise the dead
Feed the earth
Rise instead (x 2)
Little children
Walk the earth
Learn to listen
Learn to listen
Bleed the earth
Raise the dead
Feed the earth
Rise instead (x 2)

Chow Down

Yesterday I lost my cool
Felt so good to be a fool
Everything I ever knew
Fell into a muddy pool
Now I don't know what to do
It feels so good to be adrift
Cos in the eyes of everything
I am exactly what I am
ooh I feel it
Do you feel it too
I'm gonna lose my cool (x 2)
I want to lose my cool
Chow down at the table of a blind man
I want to lose my cool
And set sail on the sea of fools (x 2)
I hope you're laughing on the other side of your face
Cos where I'm sitting, smiling, seeming kinda out of place
And everything is underneath the skin
You can't get out, you can't get in
everything is underneath the skin
You can't get out, you can't get in
ooh I feel it
Do you feel it too
I'm gonna lose my cool (x 2)
I want to lose my cool
Chow down at the table of a blind man
I want to lose my cool
And set sail on the sea of fools (x 2)
Chow down at the feet of a blind man
Set sail on the sea of fools
Chow down at the feet of a blind man
Set sail
Yesterday I lost my cool
Felt so good to be a fool
Everything I ever knew
Fell into a muddy pool

Simplify
03:55

Hi, who am I
Where are you taking now
Why, only just turned around
Why are you taking me down
People are walking around
Like scattered herds, lost and disturbed
All asking why don't things seem quite right
Why are you taking us down
World - Simplify
Hearts - Testify
Minds - Open wide
Fear - Run and hide
Hi, I'm in disguise
Don't be alarmed, no need to shield your eyes
I, you know I won't tell you lies
Try to realise
I aint taking you down
World - Simplify
Fear - Run and hide
Sometimes I feel so old inside
I wish the world could somehow simplify
Sometimes I feel so old inside
I wish my heart could somehow testify
Hi, who am I
Where are you taking now
Why
World - Simplify
Hearts - Testify
Minds - Open wide
Fear - Run and hide

White People
04:05

White people make me sick
But I'm one of them so why pretend
I'd like to quit the force
All of this killing is doing my head in
Standing in the shadows with a love called anger
Nail it to my soul, pay the bridge man's toll (x 2)
Dead bodies floating in the sea
Should have been us, I know it should have been me
Yeah fuck you, I'm going back to my cave
Just to behave like a caveman
Standing in the shadows with a love called anger
Nail it to my soul, pay the bridge man's toll (x 2)
Standing in the shadows of a bloated America
I'm swearing at my neighbours' dogs
Standing in the shadows of a fear I can't name
Maybe I should get me some drugs
White people make me sick
But I'm one of them so why pretend
I'd like to quit the force
All of this killing is doing my head in
Standing in the shadows with a love called anger
Nail it to my soul, pay the bridge man's toll (x 2)
Standing in the shadows of a bloated America
I'm swearing at my neighbours' dogs
Standing in the shadows of a fear I can't name
Maybe I should get me some guns
Standing in the shadows of a bloated America
I'm swearing at my neighbours' dogs
Standing in the shadows of a fear I can't name
Maybe I should get me some guns

Tell me what the hell is wrong
With loving almost everyone
What ever happened to love and compassion
And all of that other groovational stuff
It seams that too much is never enough
I've had the blues since I don't know when
I'm asking love to please come back again
Everybody's feeling sad and alone
Love, come on home
Tell me what the hell is wrong
With singing a dirty old rock and roll song
What ever happened to singing and dancing
And stomping and clapping.. and stuff
Suffering baby, enough is enough
I've had the blues since I don't know when
I'm asking love to please come back again
Everybody's feeling sad and alone
Love, come on home (x 2)
Tell me what the hell is wrong
With loving almost everyone
What ever happened to love and compassion
And all of that other groovational stuff
It seams that too much suffering is never enough
I've had the blues since I don't know when
I'm asking love to please come back again
Everybody's feeling sad and alone
Love, come on home (x 2)

Way Down

Way down low, where you never go
We all know, something you don't know
So why don't you go home (x 4)
Way up high, there's no need to cry
Better get yourself a new kind of perspective
Cos we're all gonna die
So why don't you go home (x 4)
Where did the good times go
Taken away by the devil you know
Where did the good times go
Taken away by the devil you know
Way down low, where you never go
We all know, something you don't know
Where did the good times go
Taken away by the devil you know
Where did the good times go
Taken away by the devil you know (x 2)
Way down..

Redneck Funk Machine

My mother was a woman
My daddy was a man
I shut my eyes and my life began
I don't mean to be bad
I don't mean to be mean
I was just born a low down dirty
Redneck funk machine
My home town
Is full of hippies and freaks
Rednecks and psychos
Who can hardly speak
We don't mean to be bad
We don't mean to be mean
We's just all born low down filthy
Redneck funk machines
Yeah!
I'm a redneck funk machine (x 4)
My daddy was a woman
My mother was a man
I shut my little baby eyes
And my life began
I don't mean to be bad
I don't mean to be mean
I was just born a low down dirty
Redneck funk machine
Yeah!
I'm a redneck funk machine.....
