You're a Rock fan
We're a Rock band

on our new dance
Get on the the floor

swinging really wide
going side to side
Let's have some fun
it's fun for everyone
don't be afraid
you might even get laid...
Bomp Bomp!
Do the Bomp Bomp!
Bomp Bomp!
Do the Bomp Bomp!
Come give it a try

if you're feeling low
give this one a go
Do the Bomp Bomp!

Motivation
01:24
|

I had a bunch of things to do today
a bunch of other things got in my way
I started feeling stressed and over run
I ended up getting nothing done
Motivation is hard to hold
when the trail runs cold
and the game gets old
Motivation is hard to keep
when you've got to move
but you'd rather sleep
Sometimes the pieces don't seem to fit
you have to start again and deal with it
try to look at things a different way
figure out what you need to change
Motivation is a crack of the whip
when you start to slip
and you lose your grip
Motivation is the push you need
to take the lead
and finally succeed

I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
It's a little more Blood
a little more Pain
a little less money
going down the drain
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
It's the same old thing
with every kind I pick
I've got no choice
I'm always getting nicked
Gotta use two
cuz they dull so quick
one for my face
and one for my neck
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I'm afraid its more
than just a phase
it's self mutilation
every couple of days
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store Blades
I've been shaving with Dollar Store...

Time Lord

So much on the line
not enough time
for any of mine
I gotta get up and go
my body says no
and so does my mind
I want
all day every day
I want
time to be mine
Life has taken my soul
I'm under control
there's nowhere to hide
I need money to live
so I spend my time
all I can give
I want
all day every day
I want
time to be mine
I want
all day every day
I want
time to be mine
I want
all day every day
I want
time to be mine
I want
all day every day
I want
time to be mine

Next Nightmare
02:22
|
|||
|
Change is coming and its coming fast
Ya its all rearranging
See the shadows of the recent past
getting shorter and fading
We used to dream of luxuries
and now we settle for survival
A new wave of realities
leave no room for denial
No one seems to care
about the changes in the air
how will we prepare
for the next nightmare
What's the fate of the human race
have we already ran it
is it time to pay the price
for what we've done to the planet
so many prophecies
doomsday predictions
how the hell do we separate
the facts from the fiction
No one seems to care
about the changes in the air
how will we prepare
for the next nightmare
They figure that whatever they want
they'll just go out and get it
Makes you wonder did we take too much
have we run out of credit
Do we have the technology
to find a solution
Or will our only legacy
be a trail of pollution
No one seems to care
about the changes in the air
how will we prepare
for the next nightmare
No one seems to care
about the changes in the air
how will we prepare
for the next nightmare

Landlord Stomp
01:47
|

|
Take a walk down the Ave
it's got nothing that it used to have
Everything is dying
or it's already dead
no one can afford
to pay the rent
People try but they never last
their time is up so fast
they'll never be back again
the landlords always win
Everybody ready
Everybody hop
Everybody do the Landlord Stomp
Everybody dance
Everybody sing
Ain't that greed just a terrible thing...
1 2 3 4
The Landlord Stomp
is going to the top
of everyone's list
if they've been ripped off
The Landlord Stomp
is a real wild romp
once they start
they won't wanna stop
They shut down vital places
nothing left but empty spaces
there's nowhere left to go
every hit's a fatal blow
They make you sign a lease
break you down piece by piece
lean on you until you snap
kick you out and re set their trap
Everybody ready
Everybody hop
Everybody do the Landlord Stomp
Everybody dance
Everybody sing
Ain't that greed just a terrible thing...
1 2 3 4
The Landlord Stomp
is going to the top
of everyone's list
if they've been ripped off
The Landlord Stomp

once they start
they won't wanna stop
The Landlord Stomp
is going to the top
of everyone's list
if they've been ripped off
The Landlord Stomp
is a real wild romp
once they start
they won't wanna stop

Life
02:17

Took a life
in a moment of rage
now he'll spend
life in a cage
Under lock and key
He'll never be free
It's the same
routine every day
nothing's changed
since they put him away
restrained and confined
for the rest of his time
he'll stay
He's alive
his victim is dead
every detail
replays in his head
He stares at the floor
The walls and the door
There's no way
no where to run
no compassion
from anyone
Just concrete and cold
until he grows old
he's done
There's a heavy price to pay
for taking someone's life away
but people do it every day
it's not a game you wanna play
Cops and robbers
gangs and guns
the movies make it look like fun
but some mistakes
can't be undone
if you really hurt someone
You'll never win
if they lock you in

Rot 'n Roll
02:00

Just got paid
an hour ago
it's not looking good
i'm running low
I'm on a rotten roll
and things aren't going my way
a bit of self control
could have saved my day
I've been here before
didn't do so hot
drove across town
for another shot
I'm on a rotten roll
and things aren't going my way
a bit of self control
could have saved my day
It's a bummer
being poor
it's even dumber
spending more
I'm on a rotten roll
and things aren't going my way
a bit of self control
could have saved my day

More reports
from the park
something's out there
in the dark
There's a witness
too scared to speak
about the thing he saw
crossing the creek
Another incident
down on the farm
there's been some livestock
taken from the barn
the door was broken
they found some tracks
no explanation as of yet
for these attacks
No doubt there's
Something out there
No doubt there's
Something out there
There's one or two
just out of view...
The woods are very thick
I wouldn't go too far
No way of telling
just how dangerous they are

Baby Talk
01:27
|

|
When I go to work
I'm stuck there all day
but what really hurts
is the music they play
All that I hear all afternoon
is baby talk and auto-tune
I try to ignore it but it still gets in
into my ears, under my skin
So many stations
so many choices
they pick the one
with the annoying voices
its all a mash up
of terrible noises
All that I hear all afternoon
is baby talk and auto-tune
I try to ignore it but it still gets in
into my ears, under my skin
Baby Talk
Turn it off
It's just sad
They keep making music
and making it bad

Road Blocks
01:53
|

|
It's just not fair
how they treat
people there
so much hate
so much hurt
nothing's changed
nothing works
The powers that be
killed a man
for all to see
executed in the street
couldn't move
couldn't breathe
There's no excuse for this kind of abuse
it should not be orchestrated or tolerated
There will be be no peace
if that's what we
have for police
spreading fear
spreading doubt
things must change
from the inside out
Those we employ to serve and protect
should do so with dignity and respect

Hey
Hey there Tom
thought I'd write
you a song
we were friends
for so long
we used to have
so much fun
You were great
In the band
you'd come to jam
with beer in hand
out of town
you were a happy man
you'd fall asleep
in the Van
But
There was something wrong
I don't know
what brought it on
so this is a sad, sad song
you should be here
but you're gone
