Loud Lyrix, #2, 3/29/94
-----------------------
Hello people! We're back with our second issue of Loud Lyrix. The first
issue went really well, and I'm glad you guys (the ones that wrote me!),
liked it. I hope you all enjoy this issue as much or more! This week we've
had some reader submissions, only the first three songs are from me, the
rest are from readers, plus a bonus song, "Reeking Breath", a parody of
Metallica's ever kewl "Creeping Death".... it's really funny, so I thought
I'd share it with the rest of you. I still have lots of work to do,
converting some lyrics I have to printable format, and checking their
spelling and everything, but don't fret, I'll get around to it sooner or
later.
Many thanks to all our subscribers who have been spreading the word on
Loud Lyrix. As it stands right now, we have 79 subscribers. An amazing
number considering this is only our second issue. But we need more and more
people to spread the word, so if you know of some lists or newsgroups to
post our ad too, just tell me, and I'll send you an official copy of our ad
so you can post it.
Comments and reactions are always welcomed, most, if not all the comments
I receive will be printed in an upcoming issue. Also, as always, SEND IN
LYRICS, if there is something you want to see, or some band that you think
we never print, then either send me the lyrics, or send a request, and
I'll do my best to find them. BTW, when you send in lyrics, make SURE that
you tell me who performs the song, which album it's from and especially
the title of the song. Also, tell me if it's a cover or not, and who the
original performers were. This is just common courtesy, because I don't
have time to hunt around, and find the information on a whole bunch of
miscellaneous songs.
Ok everyone, here's Loud Lyrix #2.

Nah . . . Maybe this band just doesn't do it for me . . . The lyrics strike
me as pretentious, the song doesn't convey enough meaning to justify some
of the big language. It's just a matter of taste -- don't start a flame war
with me now :-) . . .

I laughed at this in spite of myself . . . The black humor is reminiscent
of the Dead Boys. But when the Dead Boys sang "I'm gonna beat up the next
hippie I see" back in 1977, it was a little more fun, because the hippies
were putting out so much bad music and culture. But what's the point of
picking on a hippie these days? The targets of this song are too easy . . .
It's easy to poke fun at marginal types. Gwar's point may be that these
people choose to marginalize themselves, but the people in the mainstream
often are even worse. I guess I'm going on longer about this one because
Gwar shows a great comic talent . . . I just wish it were aimed at a better
place. (I like their grotesque puppet videos, though.)

Album: "'74 Jailbreak"
There was a friend of mine on murder
And the judge's gavel fell,
Jury found him guilty,
Gave him sixteen years in hell.
He said "I ain't spending my life here,
I ain't living alone,
Ain't breaking no rocks on the chain gang,
I'm breakin' out and headin' home.
Gonna make a Jailbreak
And I'm lookin' towards the sky,
I'm gonna make a Jailbreak,
Oh, how I wish that I could fly.
All in the name of Liberty
All in the name of Liberty
Just set me free
Jailbreak, let me out of here
Jailbreak, sixteen years,
Jailbreak, had more than I can take
Jailbreak, yeah."
He said he'd seen his lady being fooled with
by another man.
She was down and he was up
He had a gun in his hand.
Bullets started flying everywhere
And people started to scream
Big man lying on the ground
With a hole in his body
Where his life had been
But it was
All in the name of Liberty
All in the name of Liberty
I got to be free.
Jailbreak, Jailbreak
I got to break out
Out of here.
Heartbeats they were racin',
Freedom he was chasin',
Spotlights, sirens, rifles firing,
But he made it out
With a bullet in his back.

Album: "Master of Puppets"
End of passion play, crumbling away
I'm your source of self-destruction
Veins that pump with fear, sucking darkest clear
Leading on your deaths' construction
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you
Come crawling faster
Obey your master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master
Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just hear my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Needlework the way, never you betray
Life of death becoming clearer
Pain monopoly, ritual misery
Chop your breakfast on a mirror
Taste me you will see
More is all you need
You're dedicated to
How I'm killing you
Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master
Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Master, Master, where's the dreams that I've been after?
Master, Master, you promised only lies
Laughter, laughter, all I hear or see is laughter
Laughter, laughter, laughing at my cries
Hell is worth all that, natural habitat
Just a rhyme without a reason
Never ending maze, drift on numbered days
Now your life is out of season
I will occupy
I will help you die
I will run through you
Now I rule you too
Come crawling faster
Obey your Master
Your life burns faster
Obey your Master
Master
Master of puppets I'm pulling your strings
Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams
Blinded by me, you can't see a thing
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master
Master
Just call my name, 'cause I'll hear you scream
Master

Album: "Screaming for Vengeance"
Up here in space
I'm looking down on you.
My lasers trace
Everything you do.
You think you've private lives
Think nothing of the kind.
There is no true escape
I'm watching all the time.
I'm made of metal
My circuits gleam.
I am perpetual
I keep the country clean.
I'm elected electric spy
I protected electric eye.
Always in focus
You can't feel my stare.
I zoom into you
You don't know I'm there.
I take a pride in probing all your secret moves
My tearless retina takes pictures that can prove.
Electric eye, in the sky
Feel my stare, always there
There's nothing you can do about it.
Develop and expose
I feed upon your every thought
And so my power grows.
Protected. Detective. Electric eye.

Album: "Dimensions"
No more will I regress backward,
from that which I believe.
I owe no mann an explanation,
expect no apology.
Logic defends age old prophecies,
Christ's life, death and
resurrection,
proof of absolute deity,
expect no apology.
Not one regret
impenitent
No more will I regress backward
from which I believe
I owe no man an explanation
expect no apology.
Not one regret
impenitent

This song is "Face The Day" by The Angels (an aussie metal band). You may
be more familiar with the Great White version, which was after all, their
first big hit. Here's the original, which really kicks twice as much ass as
the GW cover did. -- Alex Carranza

Album: "Dark Room"
I don't wanna face the day, the day, today
I don't wanna face the day, the day, today
Long night leaves me stranded
Black visions, danger signs
No love, need protection
Feels like I'm on production line
Daggers of dawn, cold hearted-day
Why does it have to be morning?
Cover my head, stayin' in bed
Too late, the luckless warning
I don't wanna face the day, the day, today
I don't wanna face the day, the day, today
Outside, screaming city
Red lights and hungry eyes
Sucks like a space invader
The vacuum of its lies
Stealing my strength, stealing my time
It's reigning in a world of traitors
I don't wanna face the day
I don't wanna face the day
Let me keep on sleeping
Forget that I'm alone
One day of faceless living
Is 24 hours too long!
I don't wanna face the day
I don't wanna face the day
I don't wanna face the day, the day, today
I don't wanna face the day, the day, today
Give the night, it's more forgiving
Hold back the light from my eyes
Please stay invisible darkness
Can't see the tears I cry
I know it's coming loaded with nothing
Trapped in a tunnel of time
I don't wanna face the day (repeats to end)

Album: "Psalm 69: The Way to Succeed, and the Way to Suck Eggs"
Blood keeps drinking away
Certain of its destination
Driving through New Orleans at night
Gotta find a destination
Just one fix
Life keeps slipping away
Fighting in a war with damnation
Poised, keep cutting away
I'm looking in through to salvation
Just one fix
Like if I boarded a train
Trying to take in another station
Join us and the choice will be made
Unless we kill the lie as a nation
Just one fix

Album: "Dark Side of the Moon"
Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in a off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way
Tired of flying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
And you run and you run to catch up with the Sun
But it's sinking and racing around to come up behind you again
The Sun is the same in the relative way, but you're older
And shorter of breath and one day closer to death
Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
The time is gone the song is over, thought i'd something more to say
