Badland

I was born screaming astride the grave
To a whiplash chemical bombing slave
Hanging off a millstone nailed
To the teeth of Jesus that marked me fail
The clock is crawling up to noon
Judgment day is coming soon
Suck it all up and Americanize
And teach your god to weaponize
I cut my bolts with the blowtorch blues
Turn my monkey wrench and screw
I blitz and purge my vicious tongue
Cut my teeth and aim this gun
The bell is tolling with the proof
Playing three chords and the truth
Hurt seeks out the holy temple
Fury meets the fundamental
Feel the faith is wearing thin
On barren bones belief begins
Suck it all up and Americanize
And teach your god to weaponize
Burn your beliefs at the witching hour
Turn off reason and up the power
Now the rats rule the night
With a baseball bat and pure delight
The bell is tolling with the proof
Playing three chords and the truth
I’m no good, I’m not right
I burn and break in the red hot night
I’m no good, I’m not right
I burn and break in the red hot night
The supernova technique trap
Of every pain upon the map
The rod of rage writes the scar
Of the overdose in the hate bazaar
The bell is tolling with the proof
Playing three chords and the truth
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
Suck it all up and Americanize
Teach your god to weaponize
Suck it all up and Americanize
Teach your god to weaponize
I’m no good, I’m not right
I burn and break in the red hot night
I’m no good, I’m not right
I burn and break in the red hot night
Death put your lips on mine
My liquor-drinking valentine
Death put your lips on mine
My liquor-drinking valentine
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah
I cut my bolts with the blowtorch blues
I turn my monkey wrench and screw
I blitz and purge my vicious tongue
I cut my teeth when I aim this gun
The bell is tolling with the proof
Playing three chords and the truth
The bell is tolling with the proof
Playing three chords and the truth
The bell is tolling with the proof
Playing three chords and the truth
