You and your whole lousy generation believes the way it was for you is the way its got to be and not until your whole generation has lain down and died will the dead weight of you be off our backs.

lyrics

I'll paint the walls so they shine, I'll make the moon feel so bright,
I'll place a haymaker on your docile chin, for every fustian fact you find.
I'll make your walls that they bleed, I'll make them drip right down to your feet,
Whipsawing every lecher with a guilty face who place their pulpit everywhere

And tonight will be repeated history, presenting gold flaked apples with the worms crawling inside,
But with a purpose in mind perhaps we might just find,
With an extension of a single digit I'll stand and stare.

I'll kick the bees in their hive, I'll face a world of hurt just for spite,
I'm calling to all dogs this gallow bird is sought for every cut served up with lime.
I won't think twice for this cause, I've got all money down for my loss,
I'm walking over graves just so they know their place meanwhile I rob them in their dark.

Perhaps the proud can be more inclined to see, that every truth crushed to the Earth will rise again,
And maybe all my flaws will soon be wrapped in gauze,
As if the devil may care about my brows of brass, I've been swallowing ink about my passions past, And if despaired and damned to hell I won't look back.

I'll make your walls that they bleed, I'll make them drip right down to your feet,
I'll raise a red right fist for five and dime ethics in hopes that someone confronts me.
