They Can't Get Me Down - 7" - 1991

500 numbered copies on crimson vinyl released on
Stay Discontent. Later, re-released on Broken Rekids.

They Can't Get Me Down
Thoughts of hatred in my brain they can't get me down
Makes me think that I'm insane they can't get me down
I wish people weren't so cruel they can't get me down
So many assholes in this world they can't get me down
Seems most people act the same
I don't know why this can't change
Why can't people just open up
and start to act just like themselves
So many people do not think they can't get me down
All my father does is drink they can't get me down
People think that I'm a disgrace they canÕt get me down
I wanna punch them all in the face they can't get me down
Seems most people act the same
I don't know why this can't change
Why can't people just open up
and start to act just like themselves
These are the best moments of your life.
Savor each moment be glad to be alive.
Make the most of this time you have left.
You may never have it this good again.
Don't worry you're not alone WE'RE WITH YOU
We understand how you're feeling
Certain people have to follow the rules. BUT WE DON'T
WE CAN THINK FOR OURSELVES

Why Do They Fuck Up My World
I see violence all around me
Bloody wars fought all the time
Business, drug lords, government
they kill us with their crimes
Taking it all for themselves
Leaving nothing left for us
Why do they fuck up my world?
Fucking assholes deserve to die
Hate them all cause they're full of lies
Tell us all that they are right
For our freedom we must fight
Don't believe them, they exploit us all
Patriotism will kill us all
You better act now before it's too late
Complacency will seal your fate
100,000 dead in our latest fascist war
Now do you realize what our government stands for?
Don't just watch it on TV
Go out and protest in the streets
Why do they fuck up my world?
Fucking assholes deserve to die
Hate them all cause they're full of lies
Tell us all that they are right
For our freedom we must fight
Don't believe them, they exploit us all
Patriotism will kill us all
You better act now before it's too late
Complacency will seal your fate
Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight
Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, Fight, FIGHT BACK!

Break The Walls
Don't tell me what to do
Don't tell me what to think
Don't tell me how to act
I want to be this way
Don't tell me that I'm wrong
Don't tell me that I'm fucked up
Don't tell me I make mistakes
I want to live this way
I want to burn the church, burn the state
Burn the money that makes us hate
These institutions corrupt us all
Break them down get rid of the walls
Society tells us how to be
I won't listen cause I want to be free
There's nothing civil about this civilization
I despise this oppressive nation
You've got to, you've got to face reality
You've got to, you've got to face reality
You've got to, you've got to face reality
You've got to, you've got to face reality
I don't believe in god
I don't salute the flag
I don't want to be rich
I choose to be this way
I don't do as I'm told
I don't blindly follow
I don't obey authority
I want to live this way
I want to burn the church, Burn the state
Burn the money that makes us hate'
These institutions corrupt us all
Break them down get rid of the walls
Society tells us how to be
I won't listen cause I want to be free
There's nothing civil about this civilization
I despise this oppressive nation
You've got to, you've got to face reality
You've got to, you've got to face reality
You've got to, you've got to face reality
You've got to, you've got to face reality
Break the walls, break the walls, break the walls Down!

Angry
I'm in a frenzied state of mind
Smashing things all around
Why do things have to be this way?
Why do things have to be this way?
Why do things have to be this way?
Why do things have to be this way?
I can't take it anymore
I'm going to go insane
I'm so angry, I'm so angry, I'm so angry,
I'm so angry, angry, angry, angry!
I don't know why I care anymore
I just want things to change
I don't know why I give a shit anymore
I just want things to change
Things just gotta change, Things just gotta change
Things just better change, Things just better change!
I'm so fucking pissed off
I just wanna kill someone
I just wanna smash your brains
I just wanna smash your brains
I just wanna smash your brains
I just wanna smash your brains!
I can't take it anymore
I'm going to go insane
I'm so angry, I'm so angry, I'm so angry,
I'm so angry, angry, angry, angry!
I don't know why I care anymore
I just want things to change
I don't know why I give a shit anymore
I just want things to change
Things just gotta change, Things just gotta change
Things just better change, Things just better change!

Censored Truth
I told the truth today and they put me away
I forgot they censor everything we say
Say what I want
Say what I want
Say what I want
I know what's going on and I'll tell everyone
You can't shut me up anymore, NO!
I know what's going on and I'll tell everyone
You can't shut me up anymore, NO!
I watched the news today and it was full of lies
They aren't telling us the whole story
Hiding the truth
Hiding the truth
Hiding the truth
Hide the truth from us
I know what's going on and I'll tell everyone
You can't shut me up anymore, NO!
I know what's going on and I'll tell everyone
You can't shut me up anymore, NO!
I wrote a song today and they threw it away
They made a law so record stores can't sell it
Fuck the Supreme Court
Fuck the PMRC
Fuck Jesse Helms
FUCK CENSORSHIP
I know what's going on and I'll tell everyone
You can't shut me up anymore, NO!
I know what's going on and I'll tell everyone
You can't shut me up anymore, NO!
