RETLAWKOOB
(R. Snyder)
You can hardly conceive what you're seeing with your eyes
Creeping through the forest then he'll take you by surprise
Down upon your knees, culmination of your fears
An ancient curse handed down from the trail of tears
(chorus)
Retlawkoob
The water brought the stones up to the surface of the land
Retlawkoob
Running up behind you, gonna kill you where you stand
Conjuring he is who unholy
Brought forth to the physical form
An evil that's beyond comprehension
A resting place disturbed by the storm
The elder saw a vision, used dark magic to atone
Awoke to find the village crops turned into rows of stone
The descendant has returned, now the barriers in place
Possessed by the demon carved into the marker's face
(repeat chorus)
You're awake in a nightmare
Dead in the blink of an eye
Kill or be killed or your fate will be filled
Beneath the black of the midnight sky
You die
When blood spills on the land
Die by his hand
When blood spills on the land
You're gonna die by his hand, tonight he will be
Set free
The prophecy
When blood spills on the land
Set free
The prophecy
You're gonna die by his hand
(repeat verse 1)
(repeat chorus)
Dead

I dropped in on your party cause i heard the food was free
Besieged by all the drivel that you spout out endlessly
It's verbal masturbation but there is no release
I guess I'll stick around and hope that this assault will cease
You gave your point of view
I should have asked for something more
Your diatribes and bold face lies, I'm headed for the door
Opinions are like assholes, everybody shoots some shit
To be sincere, i think it's clear we've heard enough of it
Your self indulgent gloating is rattling my skull
We're not arguing semantics, this conversation's dull
Your friends are sitting targets to your banality
If talk is cheap then your mouth ought to file bankruptcy
You gave your point of view,
I should have asked for something else
Your lectures and conjectures are a hazard to my health
Opinions are like assholes, everybody shoots some shit
To be sincere, i think it's clear
That we've heard enough of it now
It's way too late for a pointless debate
You're driving me around the bend
Can't you surmise by the look in my eyes
That I want this conversation to end?
You pontificate about the people you hate
I think this is where i came in
Your points aren't valid, just an endless word salad
I consider it the ultimate sin
Shut up
I dropped in on your party and it was a mistake
But hindsight's 20/20 and i left with a headache
Now silence can be golden, we know this much is true
This rule applies any time I'm trapped in the room with you
(Chorus)
I'm gonna throw a fit
Please stick a sock in it
I've heard enough so stop causing me grief

PIZZA PATROL
(M. Troost)
(chorus)
We are the Pizza Patrol
We are the Pizza Patrol
We'll have a slice or eat one whole
We are the Pizza Patrol
We are the Pizza Patrol
We are the Pizza Patrol
To fill our stomachs is the goal
We are the Pizza Patrol
Friday night the time is best for Ghoulies 2 on VHS
We'll make the call with no delay
to Vinni's half a block away
A half an hour or it's free
So order maybe two or three
With pepperoni and the works
Dive off the couch and go berserk
We stuff our face and when we're through
We'll have some cold for breakfast too
(repeat chorus)
We party on and never rest
Watch Splatter Farm on VHS
We make the call on Saturday
to Geppeto's just a town away
The wait's an hour maybe more
So better order three or four
With onions, mushrooms, extra cheese
The grandma pie is sure to please
We grab a slice each town we play
So better take heed when we say
Don't bring that escargot or that maki roll
or you'll be sentenced to death by the Pizza Patrol
You chill with us you better come with a pie
It's dough or die, so say goodbye
Goodbye

DANGER IN BLUE
(R. Snyder)
Once you hear the siren you've got to hide
They got the badge so you must abide
Any type of evidence makes a crime
Anything just so you do time
In my jurisdiction, no need for a conviction
Your guilty until proven innocent
I'm the judge and the jury in a coke-induced fury
No lawyers here to plead for your defense
I'm sure you'll confess after hours of duress
Or you'll see my revolver explode
I'll perform search and seizure
and grope at my leisure
Young girls on the side of the road
(chorus)
Protect and serve with extreme prejudice
I'll read you your rights with a club or a fist
I'll rid the streets of the scum I detest
I'm danger in blue and you're under arrest
Busted
It's hard to deny that I have a keen eye
for determining who's right and wrong
I'll smash in your face if I don't like your race
or I think that you're hair is too long
The dealers pay high so I turn a blind eye
Try the precinct, I'm always on call
Execute you on site, grab the suitcase of white
Shoot and laugh as your brains paint the wall
(repeat chorus)
How can I even trust you?
I can't even throw you
Chi, Independence, & San Fran
Just a brutal man
I just want to be free
It's like you wanna put one in me
(repeat chorus)

DOLLAR DITCH
(R. Snyder / M. Troost)
Your set was really rad, the kids went off like mad
But the news I have is bad
He tells me with a sigh, with your portion of the pie
We pay the sound guy
Sell tickets in advance and you might get the chance
To watch your fans slamdance
At fifteen bucks a head on a Wednesday night that's dead
Then they pocket all the bread
(chorus 1)
We drive around the country, I play guitar and sing
And make less money then a guy at Burger King
It barely covers gas and there's no hope of getting rich
Promoters steal are money, leave us in the dollar ditch
The turnout's kind of low, I thought you guys should know
That I don't promote my show
I hate to be a pest, so a post or two at best
And the bands can do the rest
We thought it would be great to pay bands with a food plate
But you guys showed up too late
Yeah you missed the free cuisine
I hope this doesn't sound to mean
But this town has no metal scene
(chorus 2)
We drive around the country, I play guitar and sing
And make less money then a guy at Burger King
It barely covers gas and there's no hope of getting rich
We throw all of our money deep inside the dollar ditch
Can I borrow ten bucks?
Man this shit it really sucks
Sometimes it feels like we're just paying to play
You can have a great time and never make a fucking dime
If your ego doesn't get in the way
Fuck that
Beat
A day late and a dollar short
The headline of the scene report
Beat
Tapped out trying to make a buck
The show's shut down your out of luck
(repeat chorus 2)

ZONE OUT
(R. Snyder)
Fuck your bubba states
Fuck your guns and hate
Fuck you god and grits
And your racist shit
You're a redneck stooge
You're jammin' with the Nuge
Deny a woman's right to choose
That's a fight you're gonna lose
(chorus)
You gotta a lot to say but no one wants to listen
You hate on anyone who's not a God fearing christian
You wanna run the country but you ain't got the clout
Your lips keep on moving but I always zone out
(repeat verse and chorus)
You're white and rich, completely out of touch
You hate all modern art expression
cuz it's morally corrupt
You blame the lack of god for the shootings in schools
But when there's talk of gun control
then you start singing the blues
Boo hoo
Fuck your bubba states
Fuck your guns and hate
We know what you're about
So we zone out
