*************************

Party Train
I barely make it home by 5A.M.
I'm at work at 8 no sleep again
boss says you got work to do
if it ain't done, then you're thru
I can't take this constant pressure
tonight's gonna be a whole lot better

Party train is on the loose
party train, gonna get some booze
party train, party train
party train starts in the caboose

Room is spinnin' round, it's outta control
what i need right now is alcohol
money's gone and I got no friends
but my party never ends
think i'll take a walk downtown
say who's gonna buy the next round?

Chelsea Girls
Oxblood docs and jeans of blue
watch out boys, she's after you
with a Fred Perry shirt and a green flight jacket
that funny girl, she's causin' a racket
Listening to Blitz and the 4 Skins
Vespa scooters not safety pins
always with a drink in hand
or else she pogos with the band

Chelsea girls are everywhere
Chelsea girls say Oi! Oi!
Chelsea girls like skinhead boys

She's not a hippie spreadin' peace and love
don't give a fuck about the heaven above
she's just a skin shoutin' Oi! Oi!
can't even play makin' lots of noise
Listening to Blitz and the 4 Skins
vespa scooters not safety pins
always with a drink in hand
or else she pogos with the band

Punks and Skins
They say our glory years have come and gone
but what do they know, them fuckin' cunts
things will never be like they were before
that's what they say as they walk out the door
but the young ones,
we shoot straight from the heart
we're gonna finish what we start
we're gonna unify
punks and skins never say die

Punks and skins wear boots and braces
punks and skins wear angry faces
punks and skins ain't gonna fight
punks and skins never say die

The time to have fun has come at last
no more fightin', what a fuckin' blast
if you don't hate me, I won't hate you
cuz we're both the same, me and you
when the nazis come, we're gonna fight
you and me, standing side by side
we're gonna unify
punks and skins never say die

Search and Destroy
Just another casualty, layin' on the line
killin' one another until the end of time
hear their screams, feel their pain look into their eyes
they say that war's a bitch its just a pack of lies.

Search and destroy, search and destroy oi! oi!
Search and destroy, search and destroy oi! oi!

Politicians choice corporations
they fuck the fuckin' country
to uphold their fucking name
future is unwritten but
the lies remain the truth
we praise all of the heroes
then we take their abuse.

I wanna live to see tomorrow
with my own eyes
cuz i'll be there when your day
comes propaganda lies
and when your marching
shooting your guns i'll know the truth
peace ain't something that you die for
in the glory of youth

Get Out Alive
Pleased to meet ya, sez the man in the suit
contract in hand what ya gonna do
your image will sell if it's just done right
just sign on the line, dont put up a fight
Piranha in the ocean eatin' you alive
they've taken control can you survive

Look in the mirror, now what do you see
who's the fool looking back at me?
money's gone and so's the fame
don't look far to see who's to blame.

Jehovah's Witness
Here they come knocking at my door
don't wanna hear it, can't take it no more
i'm still sleeping, can't you see
Jehovahs witness, bothering me
We don't want no pamphlets
no donation from me,
you brainwashed tons o' people
but you'll never fool me

Get your hand outta the collection plate!
save that for the god you create!
chapels are made of silver and gold
your teaching is a scam for the money you hold

Why can't people just think for themselves
organized religion's a joke
believe what they say, don't question the word
I can't take it no more!

You drink his blood and eat his flesh
sounds pretty sick to me
why don't you just shut your mouth
why don't you just let me be!

Next Generation
There's a place not far away
where we can go to get away
there's no rules and there's no laws
there's no fighting you can't go wrong

Cuz we're the next generation
destroy your generation.

Help me up when i'm down and out
hear me scream and hear me shout
time to blow their generation away
let 'em that we're here and we're here to stay

My freedom's been takin' away
don't wanna hear what i gotta say
lock me up and throw away the key
is my destiny.

Final Solution
Parents raging on and on
don't know what the fuck is going on
kids are runnin' all over town
can't sit still they're gonna bring you down

Fuck you, shut up, fuck off,
its the only solution!

You don't remember being young
you can't remember having fun
don't sit and try to relate to us
its too late to help our cause

Now you lost your teens kiss them good-bye
but you're still young at heart looking for another try
i won't grow up to be like you
a miserable life, the shit you do

Bastards
"Tattle-Tale" is what you are
always have friends to help you go far
people you don't know, treat 'em all the same
bring up shit to ruin their names

Had to fuck 'em over
couldn't let 'em win
You're gonna burn
for this unforgivable sin

Born into money your family's filthy rich
your powerful friends got you into the government
now it's time to fuck the people and the state
using all the lies and stories you create

Just like the lawyers are the politicians and cops
using their power to do what they want
screw the poor cuz they can't fight back
who'd believe a man in a cardboard shack?

She's Gone
Hey you, walking across the floor now
hey you, runnin' out the door now
don't you wanna dance with me
don't you wanna romance with me
come on wont 'ya come close now
come on, I wanna see your face now
don't you wanna dance with me
don't you wanna romance with me

She's gone, done forever
she's gone, droppin' like a feather
she's gone, gone forever
never again will you see her

Then I noticed all the slits in her wrists
then I felt her loneliness
don't you wanna dance with me, No!
don't you wanna romance with me
so i saw her standing on the ledge
and she's asking me to take that pledge
don't you wanna dance with me, No!
don't you wanna romance with me

Don't you wanna share what you're feeling
what you're feeling inside
don't you wanna let some anger
let some anger outside

Let's Riot
Pictures falling off the walls
parents scared shit of this youthful call
we're sick and tired of the same old shit
gotta get away before you're hit

I'm so bored....let's riot
I'm so fucking bored....let's riot

Rebellious young rockers in high school halls
sick of shopping in the fucking malls
hot shit punks breakin' all the rules
gonna make you look like fools.

I'm so sick of watching TV
there's nothing new for me to see
kick in teh set, tear down the town
gotta get ready for a brand new sound!

Police Attack
No use fighting, you ain't gonna win
5 against 1, they got all the guns
you weren't doin' nothing they don't care
fists start swinging, bodies start bleeding

Police attack you're gonna lose
it don't matter what you do
cuz their badge will fuck you up
police attack you fucking cunts

Cops come in take over the town
kids having fun have nowhere to run
get arrested they take you downtown
fists start swinging, bodies start bleeding

We're the Ones
Gotta make it happen, gotta go for the gold
gotta make a change before you get too old
express yourself but don't expose
show yourself thru your hair and clothes

We're the ones
that are gonna make it
we're the ones that ain't
gonna take it no more

You're bangin your head against the wall
can't you see the writing it's on the hall
we've seen it all, it's happened before
now it't time to make you roar

Gotta get away get me outta here
futures looking hazy, step back and see it clear
what cha gonna do, i'm givin' you a clue
take your time, decide before you say you're thru

Spirit of 77
I'm caught in a fuckin' time warp
the styles never changing the music all sounds the same
what ever happened to the punk rock of the past
well now here we are to bring it back at last

Here's to the spirit of ' 77
and havin' fun in a punk rock band
here's to the spirit of ' 77
and the punk rock of the past

Everyone concerned about the fashion trends
but not me I don't ear those threads
the time for change has finally arrived
and now I know punk will survive

The old timers, they won't come around
but we don't need them to keep punk around
they don't remember the fun they used to have
they just don't care, well that's too bad

Sick
I need some new excitement
I need some thrills divine
gonna get what I want
i'm gonna make it mine
don't wanna go where you're goin'
don't wanna do what you do
it's not there so i gotta create it
gotta play my next move

And i'm sick
i'm so sick and tired

So tell me what I can do
when it's all been done before
these pills and thrills aren't working
they're not workin' anymore
but the kids out on the street
don't really give a fuck
they're bitchin' all the time but they
won't lend a helpin' hand

My future is uncertain
don't know which path to take
yesterday is just a day away
tomorrow never comes my way
i'm gonna stop thinking about it
actions speak louder then words
I won't just sit back
I won't sit back anymore and be sick

Tensions
They're mounting on the front lines
stuggles going on between black and white
don't blame me for enslavery
it's time to choose your enemy

Ttensions tensions
are you the exception
tensions tensions
they don't pay attention

I've got the freedom doin' what I choose
but it's only guaranteed when it's not in use
two wrongs do make a right
it's time to put up a fight

I work all day slavin' for the few
you get off tellin' me what you do
these chains are pullin' me down
gotta get out before I drown

We Don't Need You
Angry faces out in the crowd
no one with the guts to shout it out
doin' what you're told, little follower!
fuck the scene, you can't be bothered

We don't need you, go away
we don't need you, go away
we don't need you, get away from me

Scared to break away from your little pack
scared to death they won't take you back
gonna work it out straight away
gotta work it out before it's too late

It only we could work together
then things would be so much better
but you don't know what you're doing here
so just get down, grab another beer

Just Another #
Johnny signed his name
on the dotted line
his daddy knew what was best for him
he told him he'd be fine
But he had his doubts
what's life all about
what have I don't
sold his car for a gun

He was taught to kill and how to be a man
how to kill the commies out in Iran
now your time has come, boy
you have passed the test
here's your tag and #
go and kill the best

He was just a statistic
just another killing machine
no one cared if he lived and died
he was just part of the scheme
Johnny was sent to fight a war
he never came back
they said he was M.I.A
caught under attack.

Automatic
When you see me walking down the street
it's automatic
when you see me we just hafta meet
it's automatic

But you know that I hate you
what cha tryin' to put me through
automatic transmission
automatic transmission
automatic transmission...

Don't cha come cryin' to me
it's automatic
cuz you know i'm not no fool
it's automatic

Don't cha stare at me that way
cuz I know you're fucking crazy
automatic transmission
automatic transmission
oh, I hate you!

Do Or Die
Rock n' roll is do or die
and I wanna live
???
and give what I can

No one's gonna stop me
you'll see that it's true
kick in the wall
revolution make it thru

People always tellin' me
I should keep it down
but if it's too loud
then yer too old-you fuckin' fool!

Unity thru rock n roll
and all these I adore
positive force thru me and you
and we will rule the world

Are We Having Fun Yet?
Talkin' shit about unity
you don't practice what you preach
turn around, stab me in the back
we'll see who has the last laugh

Are we havin' fun yet?
you're the ones who
know how to pose
as long as you're wearin'
the right clothes
always searchin'
for the spotlight
but you never got it right
are we havin' fun yet?

Spread your rumors, spread your lies
punk rockers learnin' how to die
you're all talk, but where's the action
you won't get no satisfaction
