Everglades

In the house of the Lord
the prophet stood
upon the stage
of stone and wood.
He raised his hands
and then gave praise
to those who died that day
among the Everglades.
I see the black water rise
across the Everglades.
I see the death in your eyes.
The Devil came to play.
Now the Devil laughed
in the prophets face,
strapped on his axe
and destroyed the place.
But the prophet rose
from beneath the ruins
dusted him self off and said
“God Damn you're pretty good; but check this out...”
I see the black water rise
across the Everglades.
I see the death in your eyes.
The Devil came to play.
Now they stood
face to face,
looking eye to eye.
The Devil smiled down at the Prophet,
he then said
"One of us must die!"
The prophet bowed his head,
the Devil said
"You have been beat"
But then that Prophet
pulled out one more riff
as he dropped down to his knees.
I see the black water rise
across the Everglades.
I see no life in your eyes.
The Devil died today.

Great Northern Raid

Feelin' like a criminal,
the message is subliminal.
You couldn't really hear it
even if you tried.
Standin' in the open,
I see that you are hopin'
there's another place to go
but there's no place to hide.
So, what if in a twist of fate
Kurt shot Courtney in her face,
put that bitch right in her place,
Would that change music today?
I'll take it down to the water, Baby.
Get down on one knee and pray
to wash your bones of your sins now, Baby.
and watch it blow you away.
Standin' in the open
I see that you are hopin'
there's another place to go
but there’s no place to hide.
So, suckers shake your money-makers,
know that I will never bring ya
down but I will surely bring it up in time.
So, what if in a twist of fate
Dime-bag made it off that stage,
Lennon never came home late
and Skynyrd landed that plane?
I'll take it back to the water, Baby.
Get down on one knee and pray
to wash your bones of your sins now, Baby
and watch it blow you away.
With a little bit of patience
and a little bit of time
we can come together
We will be just fine Baby.
Let's go now, don't hesitate
to scrub your soul of you sins now, Baby
and watch them throw you away.

Old Man Jenkins

The whiskey jar is empty
and now her hands been played.
As for Old man Jenkins wife well,
she lies awake in her grave.
Learn your lesson right.
Don't end up like Old man Jenkins wife.
Learn your lesson right
Fool me once shame on me,
fool me twice well that's wrong.
When the cops pulled him over
this is all he could say:
"There's nothing much left to live for
well now that she's passed away.
I buried her in the backyard, baby,
where the children once played".
Learn your lesson right.
Don't end up like Old man Jenkins wife.
Learn your lesson right
fool me once shame on me
fool me twice, well that's...
Every time that I see her ride by.
You would do the same
so don’t you crucify me.
Don’t you crucify me!

Touring the Sun
03:11

Every day starts the same.
I wake up at 5 am.
Go to work and I punch the clock.
The monotony never stops
well, I hope one day to quit
'cause I'm down right sick of it, yeah.
I hope that soon a time will come
when we are touring the sun.
Can you see the forest for the trees?
Tell me now well you are on your knees.
Can you see the forest for the trees?
Tell me now well you are on your...
I don't think that it’s fair
that I'm stuck in here
when I want to be out there
with the wind in my beard.
Cruisin' up and down the coast
with my two best friends, well I know
that some day soon our time will come,
when we are touring the sun.

Take everything you want from me.
Take everything you need from me.
Take everything you want from me.
Leave me with my dignity.
We've got to unite if we want to survive.
We've got to be strong if we'll weather this storm
so hold on to hope my love.
Take everything you want, my love.
Take everything you need, my love.
Take everything you want, my love.
Leave me with the hope from above.
We've got to be strong if we'll weather this storm.
We've got to unite if we want to survive.
So hold on to hope my son

Thieves & Djentlemen
03:04
|
|

So come and sit with me
beneath the apple trees
lost in our memories.
Maybe it’s just a dream,
but in our cities and in our towns
the dead are rising all around.
There's no place left for us to hide.
We fight or else we die...
Until the lights came on
then you never backed down.
Now that we have this plan
we must make a stand!
They can't kill all of us
we simply know too much!
But in our cities and in our towns
no one living can be found.
No place left for us to hide
we’re simply out of time...
Until the lights came on
then you never backed down.
I walk alone
until the lights came on.
Drowning in the blood of Osiris
we can not contain the virus.
[I walk alone]
Join the dead behind us.

the Invasion
02:40
|
|

We interrupt this broadcast for a moment.
Our worst fears are coming true,
you wont believe us if we showed it.
We go now live to the Oval Office.
Mr. President I hope you have a plan to save us.
I would give my soul tonight
I would give my soul tonight to stop the invasion.
People of Earth we’ve come to save you.
Change your ways now and we won’t be
forced to enslave you.
You can’t resist, there's no point in trying.
Can't you see that it’s your own fault
that your world is dying?
I would give my soul tonight.
I would give my soul to stop the invasion.

Wolves of War
02:49
|
|
||
We strap our packs to backs of wolves of war.
Make sure your battle axes are secure
then fight our way across the frozen fjords
and through the Forests of Forever More.
We traveled westward for some twenty days
and made our way into the Dragon's cave.
Approached the beast and slowly drew our swords .
The thrill of the kill was our greatest reward

Butterfly Man
02:44
|
|
||
Slowly crawling through the muck and grime
among the leaves of the forest's tree's.
For years to come, they won't speak of his crimes.
You’d better pray you’re not the next he sees alone, child.
Blood in the water, bones in the sand.
You’d better run; run boy.
Run as fast as you can!
Straight out the backwoods of the Mississippi Bayou.
The backwards alligator slayer could not stop you.
Load the rifle, stifle and the sheriff done and shot you.
The end is near I fear the prophecy has come true!
Blood in the water, bones in the sand.
You better run; run boy.
Run as fast as you can!
Blood in the water, bones in the sand.
You’d better run boy! From the Butterfly man.
Blood in the water. Bones in the sand.
You’d better run; run boy!
I'm the Butterfly man!
