L7 : Bricks Are Heavy
歌词
1. WARGASM
Wargasm Wargasm, one two three
Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the amputee
Masturbate, watch it on TV
Crocodile tears for the refugee
Wargasm Wargasm, one two three
Smutty bloody pictures, ecstasy
Blue balls waiting impatiently
From Alcatraz to Lady Liberty.
Body bags and dropping bombs,
The pentagon knows how to turn us on.
Wargasm Wargasm, one two three
People, people, ecstasy
Wave those flags high in the air
As long as it takes place over there.
Wargasm
Wargasm
Wargasm
Wargasm
Body bags and dropping bombs, the pentagon knows how to turn us, turn us on
Wargasm
Turn us on
Wargasm
2. SCRAP
I met a skinhead named Scrap
He lived in my friend's garage
Everyday he's shaking that spray paint can
And comes out seeing stars
Grab a paper bag like an oxygen mask
Until your mind starts to gel
Cuz the ball in the can
Has a crazy beat
The funky dying brain cell
So he met some Christian's from hell
Who said, "Let's go to Vegas man"
So he packed up his leather and his red beret
Into that big, bad Christian van
Use revival meetings like an oxygen tent
Till your mind starts to gel
Cuz the preacher thumps the bible
With a crazy beat
The funky dying brain cell
Well, he came back to the garage
But the garage, it wasn't there
And he dug metallic gold more than Luke and John
Now he's growing his hair
Grab a paper bag like an oxygen mask
Until your mind starts to gel
Cuz the ball in the can
Has a crazy beat
The funky dying brain cell
3. PRETEND WE'RE DEAD
What's up with what's going down
In every city, in every town
Cramping styles is the plan
They've got us in the palm of every hand
When we pretend that we're dead
When we pretend that we're dead
They can't hear a word we've said
When we pretend that we're dead
Turn the tables with our unity
They neither moral nor majority
Wake up and smell the coffee
4. DIET PILL
My diet pill is wearing off
My diet pill is wearing off
'Cause we're just in the bed
Sewn to the sheets with thread
The twins are in the car
The frying pan is red.
Calgon can't take me away
No, Calgon can't take me away
From the things I did today
'Cause we're just in the bed
Sewn to the sheets with thread
The twins are in the car
The frying pan is red.
And Im outta here
Im so outta here
Im outta here
I think the swelling is going down.
I said, I think that the swelling is going down.
Two hundred dollars to leave this town.
'Cause we're just in the bed
Sewn to the sheets with thread.
5. EVERGLADE
Glade told her ma, "home scene's lame."
"I gotta go into town, blow some steam at the rock show."
Sneak through the back door and head for the pit
And then some drunk stupid bruiser started giving her shit!
Rednecks on parade
"Don't cross my line!" says Everglade
Everglade.
He was whipping through the pit,
knocked her onto the stage,
She said, "Have your fun, but stop being so lame."
The guy was drunk stupid
He must have wieghed a ton
Said, "Get outta here girlie!
"Im just trying to have some fun."
So you wanna have some fun?
Well, break out the big guns.
Rednecks on parade
"Dont cross my line." says Everglade
yeah, Everglade
yeah, Everglade
He kept it up
His fists started flying
They dodged each punch
As he kept trying
Tripped on his own feet and hit the floor
Glade got to pushin' and rolled him out of the door
So you wanna have some fun?
Then break out the big guns!
Rednecks on parade
"Dont cross my line," says Everglade
says Everglade
says Everglade
yeah, Everglade
The twins are in the car the frying pan is red.
And im outta here
Im so outta here
Im outta here.
Or just say no to individuality
When we pretend that we're dead
When we pretend that we're dead
They can't hear a word we've said
When we pretend that we're dead
Come on, come on, come on come on
When we pretend that we're dead
When we pretend that we're dead
They can't hear a word we've said
When we pretend that we're dead
6. SLIDE
I put your stuff out on the porch
(letting it slide)
You pissed in your pants and put out the torch
(letting it slide)
You splattered the bathroom with your hair dye
(letting it slide)
Im kicking you out and you know why
Yeah, I've been letting it slide
You've been along for the ride.
You put your cane right through my amp
(letting it slide)
When it comes to losers, you're the champ
(letting it slide)
From my garden, Ill pull your weed
(letting it slide)
Your stupid evil, I will not feed
NO!
Yeah, I've been letting it slide
You've been along for the ride
Yeah, I've been letting it slide
You've been along for the ride
I put your stuff out on the porch
(letting it slide)
You pissed in your pants and put out the torch
(letting it slide)
You splattered the bathroom with your hair dye
(letting it slide)
Im kicking you out and you know why.
Yeah, I've been letting it slide
You've been along for the ride
Yeah, I've been letting it slide
You've been along for the ride
Get out of here boy
It took me three weeks to clean that bathroom
You know that amps don't grow on trees
7. ONE MORE THING
've just about had enough
I'm drowing from too much stuff
I get scared when the telephone rings
Someone talking about one more thing
One more thing
Yeah, it's one more thing
One more thing to put in line
One more thing to waste my time
One more thing that I can't take
One more thing I'm gonna break
You need more, well get in line
Too many things grabbing at my time
I'll tell you, brother, right out flat
I'm gonna have to throw you back
One more thing
Yeah, you're one more thing
Yeah, your one more thing to put in line
One more thing to waste my time
One more thing that I can't take
One more thing I'm gonna break
Yeah, you're one more thing
Yeah, you're one more thing
I fix my engine and the tire goes flat
It's one more thing that I can't have
Politics messing with my rights
There's nothing fun to do tonight
One more thing
Yeah, it's one more thing
Yeah, its one more thing to put in line
One more thing to waste my time
One more thing that I can't take
One more thing I'm gonna break
Yeah, its one more thing
Yeah, its one more thing
Yeah, its one more thing
Yeah, its one more thing
8. MR INTEGRITY
Stranded in the streets of San Francisco
A rusty car pulled along side of me
I looked behind the wheel and I started to squeal
An idol's face was staring at me.
Don't preach to me
Mr. integrity
Sittin' shotgun, out of my brain
Im up for draggin' through the art ghettos
Stepped on the gas, gums started to flap
Punk rock manifestoes
Spittin', fumin',
The streets are filled with so much glass that I wanted to break
Eyes spinnin' 'round
As my feet shook the ground
Like the San Francisco earthquake
Don't preach to me
Mr. integrity
Don't preach to me
Mr. integrity
I'm not the enemy
Please don't preach to me
Mr. integrity
Stranded in the streets of San Francisco
A rusty car pulled along side of me
I looked behind the wheel and I started to squeal
An idol's face was staring at me
Spittin', fumin',
The streets are filled with so much glass that I wanted to break
Eyes spinnin' 'round
As my feet shook the ground
Like the San Francisco earthquake
Don't preach to me
Mr. integrity
Don't preach to me
Mr. integrity
Don't preach to me
Mr. integrity (ha!)
I'm not the enemy (no)
Please don't preach to me
Mr. integrity
9. MONSTER
Come on over,is getting too late
Is time to fish, no time to cut bait
Foolish passion, you inspire
With your kind of trouble, I'll never tire
(chorus)
Monster...(monster in me)
Bring out the monster (monster in me)
In a world of diposable icons
All the jokers, with phoney o' come on's
I know, I can't depend on you
When we're together, where hurting crew
(chorus)
You bring out the monster in me
We don't need to look for trouble
My partner in crime, my insanity double
When life takes a turn from bad to worst
You're always there, my lovable curse
(chorus)
You bring out the monster in me...
Monster in you!!
10. SHITLIST
When I get mad
And I get pissed
I grab my pen
And I write out a list
Of all the people
That won't be missed
You've made my shitlist
For all the ones
Who bum me out
Shitlist
For all the ones
Who fill my head with doubt
Shitlist
For all the squares who get me pissed
Shitlist
You've made my shitlist
Shitlist
Shitlist
When I get mad
And I get pissed
Shitlist
I grab my pen
And write out a list
Shitlist
Of all you assholes
Who won't be missed
Shitlist
You've made my shitlist
Shitlist
Shitlist
11. THIS AIN'T PLEASURE
No raving beauty
She's got a good heart
He's got escaping
Down to an art
This ain't pleasure
Don't ask why
This ain't pleasure
And monkeys can't fly
She's an infection
A stain on his soul
He's her addiction
They're out of control
This ain't pleasure
Don't ask why
This ain't pleasure
And monkeys can't fly
