The South Is Risen 03:13
lyrics
buy track
Jihad 101 is easy to read with Google at your leisure And when God cannot protect you a rifle can take aim From four to seven Happy hour at the Mexican patio cafe to perform the putsch I’ll order the queso Keep a secesh beside you Answered prayer we’ve been waiting for, Wade! Keep a secesh beside you Well bish I know I am head honcho, Grizzly Joe I got a riddle for all of y’all behind the counter Well bish I know Now which came first? I am the one to make gray-backs as favored as Canadians Which came first? Biblical chicken or Koranic egg?

Prayer For War 01:33
lyrics
buy track
I’m prayin’ for a war I’m prayin’ for a war Unified by death and loss One entity connected I’m prayin’ for a war Cuz my eyes keep me at home Red-green hues just look the same Military says Body must be bonafide Body must be bonafide Mines lacking certain cues I’m itching to the core I’m prayin’ for a war Civilian life has drained me dry Been waiting my whole life Get gun, gag some, gut ‘em A will to kill prolongs this strife God gave me libitum right I’m prayin’ for a war I’m prayin’ for a war Always ready, always there What a lie that has derived I’m prayin’ for a war

Lizard Men Of The Third Reich 03:05
lyrics
buy track
Sit in seat Distracting mind Plugging ears closed with the music I like Worrisome woes But I’m told it’s alright Drop-heads watch fingers waggle in front of the alphabet Easier to pettifog Tell half-racist jokes Tensing jaw while chewing whitebread bologna plus or minus the mayo Ornery Pa Permits the use But I just sigh and go play cowboy Just like John Wayne Camouflaged Secret Sturmabteilung

The Tonsure Twist 02:50
lyrics
buy track
I got a new dance It’s called the Tonsure Twist First you shave off all your hair And shake around like this Next you give up your belongings Don’t worry they won’t be missed Armageddon is round the corner How could you possibly resist? <I know I can’t> The great leader sees you groovin To his fresh theology He sees you diggin his scripture Following faithfully The whole world is a cesspool Now you finally see How indiscriminate killing Is gonna set us all free <or so you think!> When all that faith Fills up your head But not your heart It must be easy Blowing yourself and other folks apart In a flash it’s all over You can go ahead and rest You followed every instruction You detonated that vest Your soul crosses the threshold Expecting to join the blessed But your just another shitty asshole And god ain’t impressed <never was, never will be!> When all that faith Fills up your head But not your heart It must be easy Blowing yourself and other folks apart Who’s doin that tonsure twist? X 1000

Big Pink 05:04
lyrics
buy track
You gotta funnel it in Then you’ll sound so profound A cipher-fabulist who rhymes To only tunes known lips croon You say “I’ve had it” Spew it like religious candor And cream in your made bed Cooked conviction is a blister Of the browbeat you were bred “I am the original pity party” Searching for idyllic lands Buncha pilgrims You say “I’ve found it”

Kill The Irish 04:13
lyrics
buy track
I’m sorry men, but it’s time once again, For you to kiss your pretty wives goodbye. There’s been a call to arms, across field and farm, And we all must march tonight. We thought our fathers had won, That long and mighty fight. But just look around you, you ain’t got nothin’! And today’s world ain’t quite so white. (missing stansa) Our children grow sick and sour, But the devil’s knocking at the door. He says he’s come, come here to save us, He’s got a modest proposal. Repeat after me, Kill The Irish I want my fuckin’ pizza! But there’s a blockade goin’ round my block. Red man’s bitchin’. Bitchin’ ‘bout nothin’, I thought we kill’d all those fucks. Kill The Irish Kill The English Kill The American Kill The Canadian Kill The German Kill The South African Kill The Australian Kill The Portugese Kill Them All

Schlock 02:50
lyrics
buy track
There without notice Human schlock Crushed cans and brown soaked Bounty Plastic turtle-chokehold There without notice I am your world Useful for a matter of minutes Thoroughly sopped Thrown away without concern Didn’t need it anymore Didn’t need it anymore I am your world Sublet debris Feeble dross Black bag habitat reeking like bacterial death Unwanted Easily broken Never ending persistence Not enough area Not enough space In the world In the world I am yours The place where I reside is forgetful Managed by grumpy men Who take away your problem And put it with other people’s problems Stinks, fetors And to think that this song could get anymore literal

Beneath The Boardwalk 02:09
lyrics
buy track
Room for rent Car for lease How’s a man Get a piece? Rent to own Own some day How’s a man Supposed to pay? Under the moonlight, under the moonlight Beneath the boardwalk is where we eat Out of debt Holy grail Finally free But old and frail Never saved Always gave Take that debt To the grave Under the moonlight, under the moonlight Beneath the boardwalk is where we eat

Desert Rose 02:52
lyrics
buy track
Better flee for the fields A new coming on the rise Destiny’s damsel Unrelinquished by men Desert Rose Fuzzy fumes and a metal racket Pink dress for a flak jacket Purging of insolence Sand grinds skin to a headache Beliefs you would never hold in haunts where sisters croak How many trees in Arabia? You’ve never been so you cannot perceive How fast worse can get holding K’s “The girls are undermined but you can stay” Desert Rose

Warheads 02:50
lyrics
buy track
See the warheads See the warheads coming down Watch my sister burn Rail against clear empty skies I yearn for a prison cell No hope in halting those Jihadist pigs Corporate reps form a Mel Brooksian line Women and children are spared for a higher stipend I see the warheads Melted skin won’t stop me From filling this bag full of bombs Place it at the mosque on MLK street See the warheads Coming down Watch my sister burn Rail against clear empty skies

Sunday At Hirohito's 04:14
lyrics
buy track
Taking the family Out for a stroll Like a normal family My people gotta know Oh-oh, oh-oh Out in the garden Kids are having fun Soaking up the rays Of an imperial sun Oh-oh, oh-oh Good-bye nobility Now my people see they spend their Sundays just like me Feeding the fishes Feeding the poor I can do it all Without going out the door Oh-oh, oh-oh Up in the palace Sitting down to eat Enjoying our dinner Just like people on the street Oh-oh, oh-oh Good-bye supremacy Now my people see they spend their Sundays just like me Talk to the gardener Talk to the chef Talk to all the people Until there ain’t no people left Oh-oh, oh-oh Want to kiss the kids Want to kiss the wife too Tell the guards to leave So I can feel like you do Oh-oh, oh-oh Good-bye divinity Now my people see they spend their Sundays just like me Just like me Sunday at Hirohito’s, everybody’s going, everybody is gonna be there
