STATE OF THE UNION
(written May 30th to June 1st 2009)

Verse 1
This is the latest from the freedom front - Liberties revoked by Government
You've no more right to remain silent - Police reserve the right to be violent
Your life don't belong to you - Gotta work 'til you're 80 too
Can't say what you really think - Unless you like bleeding in a sink

Chorus
See the state of the union - Embrace the confusion
Wonder how we all got here - And where we'll be next year
History repeats itself - 'Cos we don't think for ourselves
It's all gone now, it's too late - Welcome to police state

Verse 2
This is the latest from the freedom desk - Human rights are in a mess
Right to privacy over-ruled - And the right to be home schooled
Can't allow a thinking mind - No people thinking outside
Twenty-Four hour news - Twenty-three personal views
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
This is the final word from freedoms voice - We no longer have have a choice
States cracking down on dissent - And censoring the internet
If you wanna install the peace - Better execute the police
Want the right back to roam free? - destroy all CCTV

Closing
Kill the state of the union - Destroy the confusion
Expose how we got here - All freedoms back by next year
Don't let history repeat - Take the blindfold off the sheep
Can be done it's not to late - Petrol-bomb the police state

-------------------------------
up next, the much friendlier God bless The Rebels (everybody's fave so it seems) - VERY Green Day

GOD BLESS THE REBELS
(written June 1st 2009 - 30 minutes to write)

Verse 1
She sees through all the lies - and she'll never believe
She just wants the truth out - and has a plan to achieve
She'll do whatever it takes - she ignores the law
Does what she feels right - it's what she's here for

She'll break into the center - burn it to the ground
Find those responsible - and hunt all of them down
She'll ignore all authority - to do what's right
And do what is necessary - to win the fight

Chorus
God bless - the rebels - the ones who won't let no one control them
God bless - the devils - the ones who won't let fear get to them

Verse 2
He just wants to serve justice - for all the children
Wants to do what is best but - don't know where to begin
He wants to slaughter sinners - throw them to the wall
Get a list of all perverts - exacute them all

He needs to do it so - he can sleep at night
To rid the images - he needs to stand and fight
He forgives his abuser - but can not forget
And if he does nothing - he knows he will regret
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
They'll fight until the end - they'll dedicate their lives
To do their part to help bring - unity to life
They will tear up the system - piss on the ashes
They'll view and take part in - all of the clashes

They will both speak their minds - no matter what the cost
To make sure freedom of speech - can never be lost
They'll take the war to the front - door of the enemy
Stand their ground to spread truth - kill all those in their way
Repeat Chorus

--------------------

up next Bring Back The Death Penalty (we don't have it in the U.K)

BRING BACK THE DEATH PENALTY
(written June 2nd - July 30th 2009)

Verse 1
This is an emergency broadcast - Everything's gone to hell
There's no time left to sit back - Now is the time to yell
Everybody's going crazy - Everyone's stabbing strangers
But no-one's going to jail - Because there's no more places

Bridge
Take a step back - Look whats going on - Take a second look
See what's happening around us all - Everything is fucked
It's gone to far and we haven't - Gone far enough
No more kid-glove approaches - Now it's time to get tough

Chorus
Bring back - the death penalty - hang the murderers
Broadcast - the hanging to - paying subscribers
Instead - of spending cash - keepin' 'em warm
Let's charge - a small fee to - watch us hang 'em all

Verse 2
This might seem a little extremist - But we gotta do something
People know they can get away - With just about anything
Nobody respects the law 'cos - There's no law to respect
Sex offenders are walking free - But grannies go to the pen
Repeat Bridge & Chorus

Verse 3
If you think that I'm only joking - You'd better think again
I sick of hearing about kids - Being murdered by a friend
If we don't give a deterent - We might as well give in
'cause without something to fear - Nobodies going to listen
Repeat Bridge & Chorus

-------------------------
up next Mainstream War Machine started as a ditty that ended up being more.

Mainstream War Machine

Verse 1
All the media owned by Corporations - No freedom of speech in any nation
Except in the land they say'll kill ya - Little place by the name of Venezela
Rupert Murdoch seems to own it all - T.V, radio, papers big and small
Spreading his message of fear - Over airwaves through-out the year

Brainwashing the ignorant masses - Who only went to school to cut classes
Gotta give up freedom for security - Gotta ignore the moral minority
If you wanna called Patriotic - Can't speak up on any topic
Can't let investigation go ahead - Or bin Laden will be President

Chorus
The mainstream media's a circus - of magicians and acrobats
Censored by those with connections - republican and democrat
Politicians and Big business - are just the latest tag team
Mainstream media is just another - part of the war machine

Verse 2
Video games teaching the children - It's okay to invade a nation
Brainwashing kids through entertainment - To get 'em signed up to an army placement
T.V shows are spreading the fear - That the evil dark men will strike here
Helping spread racial profiling - Through cable T.V subscribing

Programming everybody’s brain - To follow and all think the same
Follow the hurd and stay in line - And everything will be just fine
Gang up on people with questions - Free thinking kids get suspensions
Expelled with no future prospect - Name smeared as terror suspect
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
Every station promoting war bullshit - trying to act like we have to make a hit
Go there get them before they come get us-same old propaganda all to scare us
Saying we gotta go kill them before they - Come here and kill us some other day
Spreading fear all over the airwaves-'cos that's how all these cocksuckers get paid

Not caring for truth or fiction - Ignoring all contradiction
Reading the script they didn't write - Not caring if it's wrong or right
Going along with whatever - Something won't happen ever
Next terror strike is almost here - No evidence it's all just fear
Repeat Chorus
-------------------------------
up next Revolution One

Revolution One
(July 14th 2009)

Verse 1
Pick up a gun - Come have some fun - Welcome to revolution one
Listen to me - Do as you please - Drop all these bastards to their knees
Jump on a plane - get on a train - Just get to London right away
The time is near - Tyranny's here - So let's kick the shit out of fear

Bridge
It's gone too far - We've have enough - And now we're going to get tough
You've taken all our rights away - And with your lives you're going to pay
We won't take your shit any more - We've had enough it's time for war
Listen or be prepared to fight - This shit stops here and tonight

Chorus
All we want is Liberty -Is that too much to ask for?
and we don't want a forced I.D - Or have to pay for your wars
We are people not your pets - So pay attention right now
or we'll take things in our own hands and you'll all be going down

Verse 2
No more terror - No more error - It is now or it's never
You have a choice - So raise your voice - Let them know the hate and rejoice
So scream "I am - only a man - But I will do all that I can
And when you lie - I will reply - You won't be able to deny
Repeat Bridge & Chorus

Verse 3
You have the choice so you can change - Or just choose to remain the same
But if you don't and you ignore - We'll show you what we're waiting for
Just one more law could end you all - And we'll make your Government fall
You can listen or you can die - the choice is yours what’s your reply?
Repeat Bridge & Chorus

-----------------------------------------------

up next When? (the first song of my own to get stuck in my head)

When?
(August 15th 2009)

Verse 1
It starts with a speech read out on T.V
and results in chaos and anarchy
The wishes of the people are ignored
and we wonder what Government is for

They don't listen a word that we say
and we wonder if will any day
Will things carry on the way that they are
not changing no matter who we vote for

Chorus
When will our leaders begin to listen to us?
When will they close their mouths open their ears?
When will they see they're not doing anything right?
When will they realize it isn't our fight?

When will they stop backing tyrannous regimes?
When will they stand against who do as they please?
When will they start a war that's worth fighting for?
When will they start a war that's worth dying for?

Verse 2
It's reported on the 6 o'clock news
but gets distorted with peoples personal views
Two different stories are created from one
and no one really knows how it begun

They tell us one thing then it's something else
nobody knows 'cos they don't think for themselves
Trying to find the truth out from a T.V
but it won't even be seen by history
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
It finally all ends with an inquiry
closed to the public making people angry
Public inquiry is not in the interest
of the people who all along knew best

Information about the illegal war
is hidden away nicely behind closed doors
Only to be seen by who profited from
the creation and dropping of every bomb
Repeat Chorus

-----------------

up next Same Shit Different Party (just a little ditty)

in ur thread stealin ur lyrix

Hello Jay I see you're from the U.K - me too

----------------------

SAME SHIT DIFFERENT PARTY
(August 17th 2009 - 20-mins to write)

Verse 1
Election time and it's the same old promises
what we'll do for you if you would just elect us
Not like last time when we said that we'd do one thing
then turned around and did the opposite thing

This time will be different and you can count in it
we'll do what we promise to and we'll swear on it
And if you disagree then you can call on us
24-hours a day is the pledge from us

Bridge
It's just the same old lines from the same old parties
A different leader but the same old policies
Just like they were when that other guy was in charge
These so-called promises and just another farce

Chorus
It's the same old shit from a different party
Another election with Laurel and Hardy
Promises so great they give us the quivers
But always promises that nobody delivers

Verse 2
Election time again and they're kissing babies
but only after they know they ain't got rabies
Wondering 'round knocking on doors looking for votes
trying to connect with Joe Tax-Payer with bad jokes

Can I count on your vote is what they’re all saying
a vote is me is one for you so no delaying
I am the one that's got your best interests in mind
so vote for me and I will kick Governments behind
Repeat Bridge & Chorus

Verse 3
It's just the same old empty promises spoken
something promised that will always be broken
As soon as they get in they'll do what's best for themselves
and ignore who voted for them and everyone else
Repeat Bridge & Chorus

--------------------------------

up next The Terrorist Next Door (just a little ditty, nothing too serious)

THE TERRORIST NEXT DOOR
(Sept 6th 2009)

Verse 1
My neighbor loves the Constitution
he's got his own copy
Says Government's an intrusion
spying on everybody

Gets his news from the internet
instead of the TV
Says we should all have free healthcare
and that Jesus would agree

Chorus
He likes people to speak their minds
He says we should do all the time
He thinks that we should raise our voice
and being gay is not a choice

Says income tax is absurd
and he's anti-Federal Reserve
Well I've been down the Fox check list...
My neighbour must be a terrorist

Verse 2
He likes to talk about freedoms
and loves human rights
Says politicians are demons
who start all the fights

He wanted to vote for Ron Paul
but voted for Mike Gravel
Said Obama and McCain the same
but the idiots couldn't tell
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
Well I've seen the evidence, and it's easy to see
my neighbour is a terrorist-socialist-commy
He wants us to get along and think for our-selves
so get him to a FEMA Camp A.S.A.P right now or else
Repeat Chorus

---------------------------------

up next PUFF PIECE inspired by Billy Joe Armstrong's speaking voice whilst listening to an interview with him ....

PUFF PIECE
(December 29th 2009)

Verse 1
Rock Stars and Televangelists - IT girls and Politicians
New Sex scandals and Drug addicts - Peoples stupid opinions

It's not the news it's an amusement park
designed to entertain and distract
To keep the real news away from you
so you won't take a look at the facts

Chorus
Take a look at the surfing dog
See Christ's face in this fallen log
New Tesco opened by actor
The latest from the X-Factor

Siamese cat gives birth to five
Lost turtle found safely still alive
World record for eating most beef
Every story just a puff piece

Verse 2
So called reality TV - Film and music award shows
New phones and applications - and some more designer clothes

It's not news just a way to kill a day
stop you from seeing what's going on
To keep you thinking everything's okay
so you won't find out what's so wrong
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
No news is good news but that's why it's called news
something that matters and not just personal views
Supposed to inform and keep us in the know
but always cutting the truth out of the show

Where did all the real journalists go?
Are they still around does any one even know?
Why do we not see what's happening beneath
Why is every story another puff piece?
Repeat Chorus

-------------------------------------

up next Start A Riot one of my faves

Is there anymore information on this lost turtle? I'm intrigued.

lost turtle went on an Austrilian walkabout

-------------

START A RIOT
(February 19th - March 12th 2010)

Intro
We've been peaceful in our protest
and still things are yet to progress
We've done as told and remained calm
and not raised any alarm

But it's got us nowhere so now it's time
to all step up and form a line
The peaceful part has to be through
we gotta do what we gotta do

No more peaceful conversations
time for violent confrontations
Diplomacy has had it's time
now it's violence’s turn to shine

They had their chance and blew up twice
so time to stop being nice
No more useless signed petitions
time for us to switch positions

Verse 1
Peaceful protest doesn't work
we gotta give 'em what they want - get together and go berserk
It's doesn't matter 'cos things won't change
as long as they're in power - things will always be the same

Peaceful revolution won't work
it can never happen - not with what they have and how they hurt
It's not possible not today
that's why they let cops do what they want to keep dissent at bay

Break
So crash the system, burn it to the ground
help put all these lying fuckers down
One by one cut all their heads off
and show all these bastards who is boss

Chorus
Start a riot - Bring down the house down
Start a riot - Burn it to the ground
Start a riot - Call everyone
Get it started - Before the day's done

Verse 2
Diplomacy takes too long
while everyone is talking - things are going horribly wrong
Actions are needed not words
so stop with all the yappin' - get together and get to work

Diplomatic efforts fake
just more time wasted talking instead of doing what it takes
So we gotta stand up now
take things in our own hands just get together and hunt them down

Break 2
So take a stand and make them hear
that the end of their time's near
Show them that they had their chance
and this is their final dance
Repeat Chorus
Guitar Solo
Repeat Bridge 1 & 2
Repeat Chorus

----------------------------------

up next [b]Lies[/s] another song about mainstream media but more ballad-y

Seriously though, thanks for all of these. I was having a dry spell with my lyrics, it's just what I needed.

LIES
(March 1st - May 28th 2010)

Verse 1
Another attack, another war
a new pack of lies and so much more
Lies in the paper, lies on TV
all advertised as reality

Same old same old, day after day
nothing ever going the right way
People die and no one says why
real story dead over night

Chorus
Nothing to see here move along
its always the same old song
This is what we say happened and why
everything else you hear is just a lie

Verse 2
Another bail out, another tax
presented again without the facts
Another story that's not revealed
who benefits is to be concealed

Deals made and people played
innocent always get betrayed
Bankers bonus for messing up
account holders to clean it up
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
Another promise, another break
just more lies from another fake
Another excuse and same old spin
so complex where do we begin?
Repeat Chorus


------------------------

up next D.O.B 1984 (though I was actually born in 1983)

D.O.B 1984
(May 3rd to July 1st 2010)

Verse 1
Born under Thatcher in 1983
right into a world of total tyranny
No chance of freedom born behind padlocked doors
I was born straight into 1984

Not being rich seen as being a failure
and 1 in 10 unemployed
And they wondered about everyone’s behaviour
why everyone was so annoyed

Chorus
Thatcherism, Fascism one in the same
1984 just fell right off the page
'97 made you think it had gone away
when it was only just coming out to play

Verse 2
Born into a world with no hope in sight
public industry privatized
People laid off far left and far right
the average worker penalized

Every single thing that could be sold was
with nothing left behind
Sold off for so called profit because
Conservatives are blind
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
Grew up with images of riot and protest
not knowing what it was all about
Wondering why there was so much unrest
what made them all scream and shout?

A Prime Minister acting like a President
banning broadcast of a voice
And they wondered what was with all the dissent
because people had a choice
Repeat Chorus

-------------------------------------

I posted these songs as they were all inspired by the riffs on 21st CENTURY BREAKDOWN so I thought I'd share.

I'm working on a bunch of new songs but they won't be up for a while. The include ... "No More Heroes" - "Crazy Times" - "Opposite Generation" - "Broken Promises" - "Changed" - "Revolution" and some as-yet untitled songs.

So until next time, stay safe.

PoliceStatePetrolBom:
