Lyric Verse

Lucre, Bamboozled, Manchurian Heist, Rock On, Genocide, Burnt

​

​

​

ROCK ON

​

Way up here

Air so clear

Sky so blue

Cloud so pretty

No city this tight

Just right for a dream

Ahhh...hot scene

 

What's your pleasure

To live or leisure

I like to rock it

I never knock it

Some like to roll

So much soul

​
 

Fresh for color

There's no other

Light and dance

Take a chance

 

I like to rock it

Keep it real

Games a deal

Life's a steal

If you can play

The world will

Sway with you

What you do?

 

Come on and rock it

Don't ever knock it

Feel the beat

sweet with heat

 

Such the treat

If you true enough to deal it

I'm blue enough to feel it

All night long

Dig the song

Grab this light

Soul take flight

Only time

Don't let this

Fine day/slip away

What you say?

 

We love to rock it

don't ever knock it

till you try

sexy sky

moon don't lie

 

I like to rock it

tick and tock it

play it right  

One more night

love taps the light

To rock so right

 

I like to rock it

So let it roll....

right through your soul

And rock it tight

All night,

yes quite;

We rock it right!

​

​

 

Manchurian Heist

 

strangelove baby

be all the rage

till one or the other

gets loosed from its cage

gilded baby

such a deadly mess

world go boom

on its party dress

coup be coming

world be flaming

better take it to ground

cause nobody

makes it this time

around

so stand down

when you see us coming

get on your

knees

cause we never say

pretty please

then hit the deck fuckers/while we take this bank/or it's kiss of death/by the bomb/and the tank

Strangelove baby

be all the rage

Till one or the other

sticks you

In a cage

Star/crossed idol

such a lethal mess

plan goes boom

on its silky dress

world be flaming

better take this to ground

Cause

nobody makes it

this time around

So get down......

Gen O Cide (Opening to Bamboozled)

 

candy land dream/becoming for thee/

all

to a fare thee/ne'er do well/it's not so swell/in the crushing real/politic/of bomb and rock/blood and bone/sticks and stone/where words mean nothing/but more pain and ash/crime for cash/never ending/greed cedes need/reason is the first casualty/but never the last/the past littered with the life of the hero/serving evil true/still standing/in front of you/by the sleight of this con/ancient slither and yon/we shall move on

​

​

MIRAGE​

 

Soul/Jacked
Mirage
Ghosts Destined
Seek The Chosen
For
Eternal Life
Without strife
No hunger, famine, pain or fear
No pain, no rot, no age
Draws near
The paradise of utopia
And all knowledge
Is clear as
2B or not
2B real
Becomes their
Final Deal."

​

 

Lucre

​

Lucre is/as lucre does
Cause the way of our world
Was never fair
No care for thee/
No grace
To be


For
evil is/as evil does/cause the way of our world's a fallen fair/
grown fallow
gone hollow


no trust
just lust/for gold/stone cold/greed in the
lead chair/
we don't care 'bout thee/in our marble palace of silk and glass/
for zombie death/we know what's best for us/is you/in a cage of dark lies/
no way out or in/sealed by sin 

​

Pretty is/as pretty does

for the way of our world

ain't fair

Our care

uses to ruin

across time

As every line

Of trust

Stained with lies

circles pain

that pulls us under....

​

For power is/as power does

To be thus

is to be strung/in the maze of lies

No way out/or in

Sealed by sin....

​

Lucre is as lucre does

Pretty is as pretty does

Power is as nothing was

 

Cause the way of this

World

Ain't fair

No care

for thee

To be

No way out

Or in

Sealed by Sin

​

 

Bamboozled

​

Hey/you suckers

Can't  U  see

There ain't no one

To sanctify me

Rock on

Hey/say

can U see

through

the fog of denial

the truth we all hail

is nothing

but lies

whose broad coin

and bright screens lit

the dark

moneyheist

o'er the bunkers we watched

men so ruthlessly scheme/ing

hey say can U see

through the poison denial

the cloth still hold o'er the

poor

and the duped and

the true that be brave

hey you gullers it's so sad

but what can I say

ya'll done

been had

rock on/while you can

cause there ain't no prophet in peace

rock on/if you can

no more money in peace

rock on take a stand

cause the man left nothing

but bones for you to rise on

​

​

BURNT

​

BURNT

​

Low Road Demon

Blow

Daisy Eyed Tyrant

Blind

 

To

Sift Through

The Ruins

 

As they burn the World

That the Cold Lode

Grifters

Stole from you....


 

As the rogue

Spits Out

His final

Call

Will you answer him

Till you take the fall/Again

 

What goes around comes around

In this realm

Don't quite matter who is at this helm

Tis your turn

To burn

god/less eternal

Turn, evil, burn

Hunt that rebel down

Now dig this

Why

We twice shy

 

So step up

step down

drag

your head

from the cloud

pull the call

For us all

Cause this grifter

wants to slay

A planet of slaves

As karma will

tell

him

Tis hell for a  knave

 

So turn, peasants  

burn

Tis your

chaos eternal

learn, god/less, learn

Burn that bastard down

 

We got fire

In this hole

As we fight for the soul

of a nation

For Le petite Rome

Ain't nobody home

Cause it gone, gone, gone

Yeah, it gone

 

Unseen billions

caste in fear

Trade life for

Trillions

More

Pieces of brilliant

De/Struction

 

So turn

vicious

Turn

polit eternal

Burn, loving, burnt

Plow that savior

Down

No more war

For a chalice stained with

Thieving whores

That lie beneath thee.

 

 

So hail this

Bitch

as our royal

gut your

toil

when

you see us

coming

get on your

knees

cause

we never say

pretty

please

then hit the

deck

fuckers

while we

take

the

Bank

or kiss

this death

by the bomb

and the tanks

 

Dossy treason

No rhyme

No reason

They're

One legion

Of Wicked

Fallen

Greed
