BACK PEDALING ON A BIKE WITHOUT A SEAT
ALL THE PROMISES WE KNEW THEY’D NEVER KEEP
SAY WHATEVER IT TAKES WITH CHARISMA AND CHARM
A STICK IN THE SPOKES AT A GLIMMER OF REFORM
GO FIGURE ALL EFFORTS WOULD BE ABSTAINED.
BACK PEDALING ON A BIKE WITHOUT A SEAT
IN A RACE THAT’S STACKED AND EVERYONE CHEATS
FATIGUE HAS SET IN, YOU’RE BEGINNING TO LOSE SIGHT
THROWING CHEAP SHOTS OUT OF DESPERATION AND SPITE.
IF ALL IS FOR NOT
WE JUST WONT GIVE A FUCK
WE’LL DO WHAT WE WANT
AND TRY OUR BEST TO NOT GET CAUGHT
BACK PEDAL ON A BIKE WITHOUT A SEAT
WITHOUT ANY ACCOUNTABILITY
ALL GOOD THINGS COME TO AND END
EXTINGUISHED SO FAST IT DIDN’T STAND A CHANCE.
AS IF YOU THOUGHT
YOU HAD IT FIGURED OUT THIS TIME AROUND
WE CAN ALWAYS DREAM
OF A BETTER WORLD FOR YOU AND ME
OF FREEDOM, PROSPERITY
WE CAN THRIVE IN OUR OWN NICHE

IN THE EVENING WHO DOESN'T LIKE A DRINK
IT HELPS TO TAKE OFF THE EDGE OF THE DAY
THAT HAS LEFT YOU IN SOME SORT OF PAIN
ONE TENDS TO LEAD TO FIVE OR SIX
WAKING UP FEELING LIKE SHIT
DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING
I THINK MY BRAIN IS BREAKING
I NEED TO FIND ANOTHER SHTICK
I GOT AN ONCE OF SOMETHING TASTY
JUST GONNA CHILL HER WITH MY BABE
BEER TODAY BONG TOMORROW
BEER TODAY BONG TOMORROW
I WONT SAY I’LL NEVER DRINK AGAIN
THE URGE IS ALWAYS IN THE BACK OF MY HEAD
I JUST NEED TO TAKE A FEW STEPS BACK
BEFORE I FLY OFF THE FUCKING TRACKS
WAKING UP I FEEL LIKE SHIT
DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WAS THINKING
I THINK MY BRAIN IS BREAKING
I NEED TO FIND ANOTHER SHTICK

4. CHI PIGS TEETH
Hey Chi Pig
Where’d you get those pearly whites
From my arm they took a bite
Cast upon an evil spell
Hey Chi Pig
Your teeth are straight from hell
Quite the impressive enamel rack
Wouldn’t think they’re ready to attack
Put there out on display
Like the grill of a Chevrolet
HEAR THEM CHATTER
ITS GETTING LOUDER
Ensizers tear, Molars Grind
A whole in my mind!
CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP
BITE BITE BITE
I CAN HEAR THEM COMING IN THE NIGHT
CRUNCH CRUNCH CRUNCH
CHEW CHEW CHEW
CHI PIGS TEETH ARE COMING FOR YOU

THERE'S A PLACE WITH THE SAND AND THE ROCKS
NEAR THE REVEL RIVER
YOU CAN WRITE WHAT YOU WANT
THERE’S A PLACE BETWEEN THE BAY AND THE PEG
NEAR THE REVEL RIVER YOU CAN WRITE WHAT YOU WANT
HEY
HEY HO
LETS GO
REVEL RIVER
LEAVE A NOTE FOR A LOVED ONE
GOT A TALE OR STORY TO TELL
LEAVE WORDS OF WISDOM
YOU CAN TELL YOUR BOSS TO GO TO HELL
A GOOD REASON TO PULL OVER
THE REVEL RIVER
YOU CAN WRITE WHAT YOU WANT
REVENGE OF THE SWEETEST KIND
RIGHT ACROSS FROM BALMERTOWN
SEND A MESSAGE TO PASSERS BY
LEAVE YOUR MARK TO BE FOUND
A GOOD REASON TO PULL OVER
THE REVEL RIVER
YOU CAN WRITE WHAT YOU WANT

Disturbing Past

YOU’RE FIVE YEARS OLD
AND TAKEN AWAY FROM HOME
YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS
AND EVERYTHING YOU EVER KNOWN
TAKEN TO A PLACE
THAT'S RUN BY CHURCH AND STATE
THERE YOU’RE FORCED TO ASSIMILATE
HOW IS THAT FOR A CULTURAL GENOCIDE
BEATEN BY THE NUNS
RAPED BY THE PRIEST
THE ABUSE GOES ON AND ON
UNTIL YOU TURN EIGHTEEN
THEN YOU GO BACK HOME
AND EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED
AND WHEN YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES
YOU RELIVE IT ALL AGAIN
AND YOU TRY ANYTHING TO JUST FORGET
APOLOGIES DON'T MEAN A THING
WHEN IT IS FOR AN OTHERS WRONGDOING
THROWING MONEY IN THE NAME OF COMPENSATION
TO COVER UP THE SCARS OF A BRUTALIZED NATION
APOLOGIES DON'T MEAN A THING
WHEN IT’S FOR AN OTHERS WRONGDOING
THE QUEST FOR TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION
THE DARK DISTURBING HISTORY OF OUR NATION

THEY SAY CHOOSE YOUR FUTURE NOW
WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN
IS FOLLOW IN LINE
DON'T FOLLOW YOUR OWN IDEALS
DON’T FORM AN OPINION
OR YOU’LL FACE THE CONSEQUENCE
HERE WE WILL TEACH YOU HOW
YOU WILL BE LIKE EVERYONE
WE NEED YOU ALL THE SAME
THINKING YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO BEAT US
BUT YOU’LL NEVER WIN THIS GAME
HOW DO YOU FEEL
ABOUT WHAT YOU JUST HEARD
ITS WHAT THEY WILL ALWAYS ASK
IT’S HOW THEY MANIPULATE
ONCE THEY’RE IN YOUR HEAD
THEY’LL TELL YOU WHAT THEY THINK IS RIGHT
BREAK YOUR PLANS FOR A BETTER WORLD
TELL YOU TO GET FUCKED
HOW CAN WE THINK
WITH ALL THIS DAMN NOISE
HOW CAN WE SEE
WITH THEM COVERING OUR EYES
YOU’LL GET WRITTEN OFF
AS SOON AS YOU’RE SIGNED UP
HISTORY IS MADE BY TO INFLUENCE YOUR TRUST
THE NEW ENEMY IS INVISIBLE AGAIN
THE REVOLUTION IS SO FUCKING LAME

WELL THERE’S A PROBLEM HERE YOU SAY
BUT THAT DON’T BOTHER ME
HAVEN’T EVEN ASKED A QUESTION
YOU KEEP BOTHERING ME
YOU KEEP SAYING THERE’S A PROBLEM
BUT I HAVE COME TO SEE
THAT THERE’S A PROBLEM STANDING HERE
AND IT’S NOT ME
FISHING FOR A RESPONSE
FOR SOMEONE TO AGREE
WELL I AIN’T BITING
I DONT THINK IT’S WHAT YOU NEED
YOU NEED ME TO RELY ON
WELL I DISAGREE
YEAH, YOU NEED SOMETHING
BUT IT’S NOT ME
DROWN OUT THE VOICE OF REASON
BURY IT SIX FEET DEEP
I CAN’T FIX YOUR BROKEN PIECES
BUT YOU KEEP ASKING ME
THERE’S SOMETHING TEARING YOU APART
BUT IT’S NOT ME

THAT THIS WILL NEVER END
I WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN

THING ARE ROUGH ALL OVER
NO EXCEPTION HERE
I BOUGHT MYSELF A LOTO TICKET
A BOTTLE AND A CASE OF BEER

PLAYING THE SAME SONGS
GET OUT OF MY WAY
I GOT NOTHING TO SAY
EXCEPT THE FACT
YOU’RE ALL FUCKED
YOU CAN TAKE YOUR JACKED UP PICK UP
AND DRIVE IT UP YOUR ASS
I GOT ME A MONSTER TRUCK BABY
WITH ARMOURED STEEL AND BULLET PROOF GLASS
GONNA LEAVE THIS TOWN
LEAVE IT IN A SMOLDERING DEBRIS
FOR ALL THE BLOOD AND SWEAT I GAVE
AND ALL THE PAIN DISPOSED ON ME
TOSSED IN THE SCRAP HEAP
DISPOSABLE USELESS TRASH
WELL THERE’S NO FUCKING WAY
THAT I'M GOING OUT LIKE THAT
LIGHT IT UP AND BURN IT DOWN
THE NEW QUEEN WILL WEAR HER CROWN
AS SIRENS RING OUR DESTRUCTION RAGES ON
THERE’S NOWHERE LEFT TO RUN

REVENGE IS ON MY MIND
WHEN HELL RAINS DOWN

WE LEFT THE MECCA AT 3AM
FIVE HALF CUT SOULS IN THE BACK OF A VAN
WE DIDN’T KNOW WHAT WE WERE DOING
BUT WE KNEW WE HAD A MISSION
20 HOURS CHASING FATE
LEFT ALL THE DRUDGERY BEHIND
EVEN WHEN WE KNOW WHAT WE’RE DOING
WHY CAN’T WE EVER GET SHIT RIGHT
OBSESSION, SELF DESTRUCTIONS
REDEMPTION, SALVATION
COMPLACENT, WE ARE NOT VACANT
DON’T TELL ME THAT WE’RE WASTING OUR TIME
AND OUR LIVES
WE DWELL OUT ON THE FRINGE
ON THE OUTSIDE LOOKING IN
BROKEN STICKS AND STRINGS
RINGING EARS AND WEDDING RINGS
WE’RE FALCONS OF PERCEPTION AND
WOLVES OF OPPORTUNITY
FADING TATTOOS FERMENTING
INTO RHYTHM AND BOOZE
YOU ALL SAY WHAT'S UP
I SAY WE’RE DOING JUST FINE
10 YEARS DOWN THE ROAD
WE’LL BE HERE TILL THE DAY WE DIE
