Break out the holy water cuz I come for your daughter Chuck! You’re in the presence of the Holy See Oh where oh where could that poor boy be? We all take a bite of the apple from the sinner’s tree And you might as well get it from me It’s the glory hole confession From the oldest and wisest profession Better not have any questions during this session Or I will teach your ass a lesson You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth Put the holy tube in your hollow and be sure to swallow You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth When you want the spirit inside be sure to open up wide You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth It’s all written down in the scripture If you read it like this you see the picture Man creates the most potent mixture Take a sip of this holy tincture Believe me, you should feel blessed You’ve seen the face of God undressed You better genuflect and show some respect! You got the cock of Jesus in your mouth boy! You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth Cuz it’s purity for all and we’re gonna have a ball You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth If you’re dazed and dumb and you’re speaking in tongues You got the cock of Jesus in yer mouth (bridge) Say cock a doodle doooo If you’re wearing the collar but you like a little smaller Say cock a diddle doooo If you’re a man of the cloth and love the 8 year old froth Say cock a doodle doooo If you’re a dirty old priest and you like the sweet feast Say cock a diddle doooo If you’re a monk with the thirst for some dunk a dunk dunk You sure got a purdy mouth. I think you need a little Jesus in it!

Americans are the trend setters Witty memes and cute little sound bites Innocuous cheap pop culture Little crumbs of tasty delights Americans have to be different To proclaim their individuality Man buns and pretentious fashions But they all look the same to me! They only thank you how they want to thank you They only thank you so much They can’t decide how they want to thank you So they always thank you so much Americans have to keep up appearances Slacktivism and bumper stickers Neck beards and post grunge hipsters Fake lumberjack city slickers Americans have to feel special Baby names that scream inanity Safe spaces and poor hurt feelings Makes me question all humanity Chorus Americans are so very lazy Indifferent smug passivity A lackadaisical code of decorum What the fuck happened to propriety Americans have no sense of courtesy You could be a waitress serving luncheon And they’ll thank you exactly the same as If you saved their family from certain destruction

It’s a patch the size of the lone star state You can probably guess what we just ate I see everything’s going wrong, but still I sing this song And hope the nightmare goes away No one dares swim outside the boats Bubble packs could slice our throats Guys we’re in big trouble because no one can live in a bubble You think it’s gone but there it floats Coffee pods for the sea Presents from you and me La la la la la Drink it up while we laugh but don’t forget the half and half Dolphins always drink decaf They’re counting on help from on high Believe in the biggest lie I know this all seems hard Keep it out of my backyard But there’s nowhere else that we can hide We decimate the animals and plants From the great whale to the smallest ant We’ve got to stop our assault because this shit is all our fault We’ve got to speak for those who can’t Chorus Power is with a chosen few It seems there’s nothing you can do You just post something on your wall but the power is with us all If we all speak up, we come right through Big oil will never give up the fight They will never ever do what’s right Never resort to shame You’re playing their rigged game So we got to punch out all their lights

Sound Going 06:28
Born I was with the curse of Cadmus Epistolarian, a serialist of everything I see But as hard as I try I can never kill the dragons The dragons they taunt me they won’t ever leave me be Someone somewhere is laughing at me they’re laughing For I dared to challenge your conventions I dare to break the mold I can feel the stares of derision I think I’m cracking Their eyes are cold I must try to get this out before I’m old I’ve got to do something before the sound goes away I’ve got to do something before the… I can feel time clamoring at my doorstep it’s knocking Breaking down defenses I carefully devised, and I fear That the fucker’s gonna get the better of me it’s breaking Through illusions and conceits I had fitfully contrived I’ve got to do something before the sound goes away I’ve got to do something before the… How many things can I buy give up and take it back Because nothing nothing in this world really comes with a guarantee There’s far more layers in this life than I can ever hope to unpack Believe me… No one was more surprised than me Just when I think the battle is joined I’m winning the fight I was certain I had done my part I had cast the last stone Something wakes me up in the middle of the night I try to sleep try to sleep but my muse won’t leave me alone I’ve got to do something before the sound goes away I’ve got to do something before the…

The Chosen 05:32
Cut our heads off We can’t be like the savages Cut the heads off We can’t look like the savages We are special, we are ordained We have to show we are the chosen I just want him to Look just like his father I am saved so I want him to be too Can’t have too much pleasure We can’t let them delight The only worldly pleasure’s In heaven’s splendid light Cut our heads off We can’t be like the savages Cut the heads off We can’t look like the savages We are special, we are ordained We have to show we are the chosen I just want her to Feel just like her mother I want her to be saved So I can be too She can’t have too much pleasure We can’t let her delight The only worldly pleasure’s In my birthing rights Cut our heads off We can’t be like the savages Cut their heads off We can’t look like the savages We are special, we are ordained We have to show we are the chosen

Well look at you – you believed that you were safe You thought this sort of thing would never happen to you here You should have known – this place is rotten to its core And now all the things you loved are now all the things you fear All the protections – that you had under rule of law Vanished into the ether like all of our lofty dreams There are no guarantees – we are slaves to our passions Violence and terror rule when god goes mainstream You gonna hide but They’re gonna find us anyway so Look back and look back alone Look back and look back alone First they took your dignity – they made you second class One by one your rights are gone they whittled them away They made you an animal – in invisible iron shackles Your essence made illegal no matter what you say You can’t fight it – the majority has ruled The few will always suffer for another man’s offense You’re a victim - of someone’s deeply held beliefs Trapped in tent city behind concertina fence You gonna hide but They’re gonna find us anyway so Look back and look back alone Look back and look back alone

Safe Space 04:29
You think you’re special and exceptional Only your opinion is acceptable You’ll learn a hard lesson before too long The more you think you’re right the more you’re wrong You dismiss out of hand cause you think it’s dumb You’ll never understand where they’re coming from You have to talk about it and think it through So get out of your space and you’ll see it too Get out of your safe space There’s more than one religion for you There’s more than one world vision for you The meaning of life is here on this Earth The life that you live is what it’s worth If you never get out and see all you can see You’ll never know what this life can be There’s more in the world than what’s in your view So get out of your space and do something new Get out of your safe space Experience what you can when you can get involved and get deep even without a plan Experience different races and faces you can drive and fly and see so many places Experience all the foods girls and dudes you can play you can dance if you stay on the move Experience your life fearlessly and soon you’ll find comfort in uncertainty

Well he brought the… Animals out of their rotten core He riled up emotions he promised you more Guaranteed your safety by his own ends But you can’t bomb people and make them your friends He’s the TV magician, pulling peace out his hat With more and more guns and perpetual combat A war that never ends with the enemy de jour Destruction is final and mutually assured Everyone is our enemy, that’s what he said! Militant guerillas hiding under my bed Oh where’s my big rifle, I mean my widdle binkie He made me so scared I think I made a stinkie You ignorant fools, you’ve been taken for rides Could not see the danger that lingers inside All the lofty ideals and the trickle-down hope But they didn’t give you gold, they just gave you a rope (Chorus) This is what you get when you sleep on your rights We all lose the fight you got nothing to say This is what you get for your complacency Cut down easily you’ve got nothing to say This is what you get cause you didn’t come out You get punched in the mouth you got nothing to say This is the world that you pushed aside Better open up wide you got nothing to say You sat this one out said it can’t affect me I got a good job, I’m protected, you’ll see Way up on the food chain, I’ll always make-do It’s a matter of time ‘til they get down to you You just pout in the corner a petulant child While your rights are stolen your person defiled Maybe next time you’ll wake up before it’s too late Fight for what you love and not what you hate Chorus Your first draft pick lost and yeah that’s a shame You quit when the other team’s still playing the game And just when you took your eyes off the ball That’s when you noticed that they screwed us all I’m sure you’ll be stunned when you’re not at the top With the King on his throne with his power non stop You’ll be with the people here at the bottom While he laughs in your face and says damn we sure got ‘em (Chorus) Well this is a brave new world that we have to live in I wish I could say that I share your optimism I guess we will all find out what happens at the end of the day But I won’t say any more because I have nothing left to say.
