You can’t take the American outta you, bald eagles don’t soar so high
A not so hidden agenda, no ones fucking free, no !
I’m the American in me - I’m the American in me
I’m the American in me - I’m the American in me
It’s the American in you, you can’t seem to break free
You’re livin the American dream, and Facebook is watching you, look out !
I’m the American in me - I’m the American in me
I’m the American in me - I’m the American in me
NFL is your past time, rally around the home team
Watered down shit beer, listen to you’re bullshit democracy……listen up !
Listen to the lies
That they’re feeding you each and everyday
Everywhere you look and everywhere you go
They’re trying to fuckin sell you something
Today you got your gun, maxed out on the plastic
You’re workin for the man, you’re off too fight a fuckin war
It’s the American in you - It’s the American in you
It’s the American in you - It’s the American in ME !!!

You Screwed Me

You were the one that chased it down, I’m the one that took the fall
Through my eyes you are, dead to me
To the alley you can run, hide your face from everyone
The world will see you for what you are, dead to me
You screwed me
You screwed me
You got the job that I was too get, I got transferred to the night
Out my window I see you, you miserable piece of shit
I’ll take what I have learned, I’ll remember who to stab
I will keep my enemies……close to me
You screwed me
You screwed me
You screwed me
You screwed me
You screwed me
You screwed me
You screwed me
You screwed me

North Of Nine

10 and 2 put your hands on the wheel, let’s take a ride in hell
Cruising down, ride the line, its Russian roulette on wheels
So fasten your seat belt so hold on tight, It’s gonna be a bumpy ride
So lite a cigarette sit right back, driving north, north of nineeeee
Well, I’m driving, north of nine
I’m heading out, north of nine
North of nine……… tonight….. Hop in
Take the back roads thru, and go real slow, it’s a feeling you can’t describe
Your tires spin; you hit a rut, well just stay on your side
Don’t fall asleep, just stay alert, and blast those tunes up high
Roll the window down, I feel ok, heading out……..out on nineeeeee
Driving north of nine
I’m heading out north of nine
North of nine tonight…….let’s go!
Icy patches, slush on the sides, it’ll take you in the ditch
Watch out there’s a roadblock ahead, tonight’s not the night
Ride the brake, remove the gas, signal yourself forgotten
Close your eyes and say goodnight, driving north……north of nineeeeeee
Well, I’m driving north of nine
I’m heading out north of nine
North of nine……… tonight
Tonight we’re goin to die
Tonight’s the end of the line, North of nine……Tonight…….Fasten your seatbelt motherfucker

On The Run

No way, not me, here’s a dose of reality
You can’t tell me what to think or who to be
I’ll say fuck you, when you try to tell me what to do
Cuz I’m loud and I’m crass, these two fingers mean up your ass
Born to be an outlaw, now I’m on the run
I’ll do anything I fuckin please cuz baby I’m on the run
I live my life to be free
On the run, I’m on the run
Lawless and debauchery
On the run, I’m on the run
No way, not me, here’s a dose of reality
You can’t tell me what to think or who to be
I’ll say fuck you, when you try to tell me what to do
Cuz I’m loud and I’m crass, these two fingers mean up your ass
Born to be an outlaw, now I’m on the run
I’ll do anything I fuckin please cuz baby I’m on the run
I live my life to be free
On the run, I’m on the run
Lawless and debauchery
On the run, I’m on the run

Punks Of Yesterday
02:25

When we play we honour all our heroes
I raise a glass to those that paved the way
They may be gone but they are not forgotten
We will remember them everyday
Punk rock is here to stay
In the future and today
Hey ho…hey hey
To the punks of yesterday
Torn up jeans and tattered leather jackets
Angry youth that could barely play
But they wrote songs that changed the world we live in
We will remember them every day
Punk rock is here to stay
In the future and today
Hey ho…hey hey
To the punks of yesterday
To the Punks of yesterday…………….
Punk rock is here to stay
In the future and today
Hey ho…hey hey
To the punks of yesterday
Punk rock is here to stay
In the future and today !
