I’ve been around since the beginning of time
You probably know my name
I’ve got the power to change your life
Though I’ll always be the same
I’ll take you people up to heaven
And I’ll drag you down through Hell
Just to know me for a minute
Your soul you’d gladly sell
People think I’m a beautiful thing
But that is just a lie
I can put you on top of the world
Or make you want to die
Just when you think things are going alright
I’ll leave you raped and abused
Ill make you wish I was out of your life
I’ll leave you totally confused

Scissor Man

One day, Mamma said, "Conrad dear,
I must go out and leave you here.
But mind now, Conrad, what I say,
Don't suck your thumb while I'm away.
The great tall tailor always comes
To little boys that suck their thumbs.
And ere they dream what he's about
He takes his great sharp scissors
And cuts their thumbs clean off, - and then
You know, they never grow again."
Mamma had scarcely turn'd her back,
The thumb was in, alack! alack!
The door flew open, in he ran,
The great, long, red-legged scissorman.
Oh! children, see! the tailor's come
And caught our little Suck-a-Thumb.
Snip! Snap! Snip! the scissors go;
And Conrad cries out - Oh! Oh! Oh!
Snip! Snap! Snip! They go so fast;
That both his thumbs are off at last.
Mamma comes home; there Conrad stands,
And looks quite sad, and shows his hands;-
"Ah!" said Mamma "I knew he'd come
To naughty little Suck-a-Thumb."

Festival Of Rats

I'm playing God but its by my own rules
Never been concerned with you petty little fools
Who are you to judge my acts, emotions and my ways
Telling me what I have to think and what to say
You think that you can change my mind and put me on my shelf
How much can you do when you don't know yourself
I'm living breathing thinking anything I want
I disregard completely your eviscerating taunts
Dream my reality and realize my dream
Don't ask me if life's as it seems
I control my future and destiny's my slave
From my time inside the womb until I reach my grave
You act so concerned so politically correct
Yet your own well-being you totally neglect
You cannot comprehend my apparent apathy
Your conscious is so blinded while mine's allowed to see
I don't believe in God and I don't believe in Satan
I'll love who I've been loving and hate who I've been hating
Your hippie peace philosophy has no place in my plans
Do you know who you are 'cause I know who I am
Dream my reality and realize my dream
Don't ask me if life's as it seems
I control my future and destiny's my slave
From my time inside the womb until I reach my grave
You hang your sins on your crown of thorns
You think you wear a halo but I can see your horns
How can you face the day with such hypocrisy
Your convoluted logic makes no sense to me
So you keep on living existing day to day
You don't have to listen to a word I say
You're so sure in your mind that you know where it's at
Soon my friend you'll realize a Festival of Rats
Dream my reality and realize my dream
Don't ask me if life's as it seems
I control my future and destiny's my slave
From my time inside the womb until I reach my grave

Homicide
Rampant in the street
Businessmen
Automatic and discreet
It's OK, it's alright
You will sleep soundly in your bed tonight
The bigger the better
The harder the faster
Down on your knees and
Bow to your master
Slave
Underground
Situation unaware
Radicals
Burning with despair
Downfall is coming ice age is near
Subliminal conditioning escalating fear
The bigger the better
The harder the faster
Down on your knees and
Bow to your master
Slave
