The Shape Of Things To Come
Assess The Mess
Let's right now assess the mess
Without finesse
Never forgetting all the rest
There's too much bad out there
Very nearly everywhere
And too damned few who really care
Assses the mess!!! Indeed, indeed!
Famine, bullshit, corporate greed
Elections stolen like a bird steals seed
Space shots, stations, circling high
Trillions for each and every try
Down here, we simply, daily die
Free
Let's go!
Everybody needs to start their own fire
Everybody needs a riot of their own
Everybody needs to be something that they are not
Everybody needs to go it alone
Because!
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Okay!
All the time spent hanging on to anything
All the time spent knowing that they're wrong
All the time wasted, stolen back, innocent
You won't get a second more so move it along
Because!
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Wishing and hoping and thinking it's you
That's got this all under control
Never a minute has passed you all by
When they haven’t invaded your soul
It’s not something you can hold
It’s not something you own
It's not something you can buy or steal
You've got it when you're alone
Being free is a tragedy
When you don't know yourself
Being free is a tragedy
When you don't know who you are
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't be what you want to be
Living so free is a tragedy
When you can't see what you need to see
Let's go!
Hey, hey, hey!
Alright then
This is the story of your life man
(And in other places around the world,
It's growing clear that the americans are trigger happy)

Action
Ahh... Go!
The sky is falling it’s a curious condition
It ain’t a fallacy, it ain’t superstition
You live your life like you’re some kind of actor
But this scenario you cannot manufacture
We’re gonna need some action
We’re gonna need some action soon
Trapped in a world of ordinary madness
It’s all the same, there’s nothing new
Com'on, com'on
Com'on, com'on
Com'on, com'on
Where’d you learn how to be so complacent?
They beat you down and you might as well face it
Your heroes lied, yeah they’re all just a fake
Don’t know how much more of this I can take
We’re gonna need some action
We’re gonna need some action soon
Trapped in a world of ordinary madness,
It’s all the same, there’s nothing new
We’re gonna need some action (We’re gonna need some action)
We’re gonna need some action soon
Trapped in a world of ordinary madness,
It’s all the same, there’s nothing... New!
Ahh... Go!
We’re gonna need some action (We’re gonna need some action)
We’re gonna need some action soon
Trapped in a world of ordinary madness,
It’s all the same, there’s nothing new
We’re gonna need some action (We’re gonna need some action)
We’re gonna need some action soon
Trapped in a world of ordinary madness,
It’s all the same, there’s nothing new
Com'on, com'on
Com'on, com'on
Com'on, com'on
Com'on, com'on
Action! Action! Action! Action!

A Is For Apathy
I wanna be
The richest American
I wanna live
Out on the street
So many reasons
To just do nothing
To walk around
Like you're out on your feet
So here we are
Now running in circles
We shoulda listened
To H.G. Wells
We're living in
The age of frustration
We're giving in
But we can't even tell
And all you need
Is one good reason
One good reason
You don't believe
You want a mapped out
Blank Existance
So you don't feel stupid
Before you leave
Everybody's here but nobody showed up
A is for apathy
For apathy
For apathy
A is for apathy
For apathy
For apathy
For apathy
for apathy
For apathy
For apathy
for apathy
For apathy
I wanna be
The richest American
I wanna live
Out on the street
So many reasons
To just do nothing
Don't walk around
Like your out on your feet
Everybodys here but nobody showed up
Everybodys here but nobody showed up
A is for Apathy
For Apathy
For Apathy
A is for Apathy
For Apathy
For Apathy
Just do nothing
A is for Apathy
For Apathy
For Apathy
A is for Apathy
For Apathy
For Apathy
A is for Apathy
For Apathy
For Apathy
A is for Apathy
For Apathy
For Apathy
(Green says go
Blood red stop
You gotta hit the bottom
Before you hit the top
So make the call
Which side you on
Back with the weak
Go down with the strong)
(Do you understand
Its not too late!)
[Thanks to lj7688@hotmail.com for these lyrics]
Transform
Oh yeah
How come everything is not like it used to be
And how come everything is never the same
Your head spins, turns around a look of confusion
This can't be real, I think it’s only a game
They said one way, you’re going
One way to be and
I can’t believe in those words
The truth is there is no truth
Mystified, can't compute
Well I said forget about
Everything you’ve heard
You won’t last that long
You won’t last that long
You might as well transform
You won't last, you won't last
How come everything is not like it used to be
And how come everything is never the same
There you wanna, gonna get, first time, last place
Nothing stays the same here, including your name
I’ve seen it all twice before
They try to be original
Disappoint the way of the world
The truth is there is no truth
Mystified, can't compute
Well I said forget about
Everything you’ve heard
You won’t last that long
You won’t last that long
You might as well transform
You won’t last, you won’t last
(Oh yeah, baby - be your right man that’s the truth)
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
What's the meaning
You must be dreaming
To want the meaning of life
I heard you screaming
To know the meaning
To know the meaning of life
You won’t last that long
You won’t last that long
You might as well transform
You won’t last, you won’t last
You won’t last that long (you won’t last that long)
You won’t last that long (you won’t last that long)
You might as well transform (you might as well transform)
You won’t last, you won’t last
You won’t last that long
You won’t last that long
You might as well transform
You won’t last, you won’t last
You won’t last that long
You won’t last that long
You might as well transform
You won’t last, you won’t last

Top Of The World
Oh Yeah! Yay!
Baby, baby!
Look around
Look around
Tell me what you see
It's going down without you
Look around
Look around
Show me anything
That makes you feel like I wanna belong
What have you got
What do you need (from me now)
What do you think
There's no difference between me and you
Hey!
What’s on top of the world when you get there
What’s on top of the world (hey, hey!)
What’s on top of the world when you get there
What’s on top of the world
Step it up
Step it up
Before you disappear
I'll crawl a mile 'neath your shoes
Step it up
Step it up
It's the payback
The fix told you what you needed to do
What have you got
What do you need (from me now)
What do you think
There's no difference between me and you
Hey!
What’s on top of the world when you get there
What’s on top of the world (hey, hey!)
What’s on top of the world when you get there
What’s on top of the world
What’s on top of the (hey!)
What’s on top of the (hey!)
What’s on top of the world (hey, hey!)
What’s on top of the world
When you get there
Waiting for me
Hey!
What’s on top of the world when you get there
What’s on top of the world (hey, hey!)
What’s on top of the world when you get there
What’s on top of the world
What’s on top of the (hey!)
What’s on top of the (hey!)
What’s on top of the world (hey, hey!)
What’s on top of the world
When you get there
And who's selling it to me
It's here
It's gone
The sound
Its gotcha
It's here
It's gone
The sound
Its gotcha
It's here
It's gone
The sound
Its gotcha
It's here
It's gone
The sound

Song About Nuthin'
This could have been about a lot of things but it's not
So don't stop and try to look for the message
The world moves and it don't ask why
Your kids will burn red hot like the fourth of July
I could have told about what's in between the head and the hand
But you wouldn't understand
You heard the story of the rise and the fall
But this time I swear it's not about anything at all
This ain't a song about nuthin'
This ain't a song about nuthin' at all
This ain't a song about about anyone or anything
This could have been about so many things but it's not
So don't waste time and look for the meaning
You heard so many things you couldn't recall
But this time I swear it's not about anything at all
This ain't a song about nuthin'
This ain't a song about nuthin' at all
This ain't a song about about anyone or anything
Stereotype
Trap door in every step
Truth is I can't connect
Move along I work in stages
Where you at
It looks like cages
See a little, see a lot
Come around see what you're not
Up and down, but never out
Last one here is left to shout
You’re just a stereo
Stereo
Stereo
You’re just a stereotype
(You’re just a stereotype)
You’re just a stereo
Stereo
Stereo
You’re just a stereotype
(You’re just a stereotype)
Sometimes the worst is best
Pick it up and beat the rest
Dig deep to find every scrap
Tragedy can make you laugh
Sign up and sell your soul
What's that
It's rock and roll
Don’t get it, you never learn
Where it's cold, it's where you burn
You’re just a stereo
Stereo
Stereo
You’re just a stereotype
(You’re just a stereotype)
You’re just a stereo
Stereo
Stereo
You’re just a stereotype
(You’re just a stereotype)
You’re just a stereo
You’re just a stereo
You’re just a stereotype
Oh yeah!
You’re just a stereo
You’re just a stereo
You’re just a stereotype
Yeah, yeah, alright
Now gather round
Look what I found
For you to duplicate
It's easy now
To hear the sound
It's time to recreate
You’re evil rebel tortured soul has been rejected
Now walk the line and act exactly as expected
Let’s go!
You’re just a stereo
Stereo
Stereo
You’re just a stereotype
(You’re just a stereotype)
You’re just a stereo
Stereo
Stereo
You’re just a stereotype
(You’re just a stereotype)
You’re just a stereo
You’re just a stereo
You’re just a stereotype
Oh yeah!
You’re just a stereo
You’re just a stereo
You’re just a stereotype
You’re just a stereotype
You’re just a stereotype
You’re just a stereotype
You’re just a stereotype
[in reverse:]You’re just a stereotype

I Knew It
The opposite of bravery has always been conformity
Don't trust your friends, they'll sell you out
‘Cause they don't know what you're about
They want to change everything
To make you fit don't be so strange
But listen up and see it through
I'll say it now, they know less than you
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it, I knew it was true
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it, so why didn't you?
The enemy within yourself
Is always blaming someone else
Don't trust yourself you're not ok
Your time will come but not today
They clamp down on your neck
You're giving up with no respect
I think i know what's up your sleeve
But what you see now you cannot believe
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it, I knew it was true
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it, so why didn't you?
Hey, That's Right!
I'm the king of the air
Not that you really care
I'm the one that sends all messages
The ones that help you survive
And make you feel so alive
The ones that sound like the voices in your head!
Hey!
That's right!
Hey!
That's right!
Hey!
That's right!
Hey!
Sent to you from above
With the lies that you love
With a voice that can tell you anything
Now the message is clear
Put your hands in the air
It's time to take on the world one last time
You like it louder
A little louder
You can't stop (can’t stop)
And it's not up to you
You need it louder
A little louder
You can't stop (can’t stop)
And it's not up to you!
Let's go!
Hey!
That’s right!
Hey!
That’s right!
Hey!
That’s right!
The sound that they give you ain’t the sound of the nation!
Ten songs in a row
And this is all you should know
I really hope I can become one of them
Fix it up like a hit
In stereo make it fit
But can you really tell one from the other
You want it louder
A little louder
You can't stop (can’t stop)
And it's not up to you
You made it louder
A little louder
You won't stop (can’t stop)
And there's nothing you can do!
Let's go!
Hey!
That’s right!
Hey!
That’s right!
Hey!
That’s right!
The sound that they give you ain’t the sound of the nation!

The Shape Of Things To Come
Time moves like the cars on the street
A million miles from here to nowhere
The only thing real is the fact
That you search for a way just to try not to get there
Another day, another problem
Another way for me to solve them
The things you do are so mysterious
When did things get so serious?
The shape of things to come has just begun, alright
Don't be afraid of the future
It doesn't include you, it only removes you
It's the only way out of the past
Out of the now, out of the anything
Another day, another battle
Another cage for me to rattle
And what is gone is never new
So let your mind explode into
The shape of things to come has just begun, alright
Don't turn your back and walk away
It will lead you straight back to your yesterday
Take your place straight up in the line
Place the blindfold over your eyes
So many stories that need to be told
It doesn't matter ‘cause you're already sold
The shape...(don't let it end without you)
The shape...(don't let it be that way)
Of things to come has just begun, alright
