No Use for a Name lyrics
Album: NRA Years [2000]
| Truth Hits Everybody | |
|
You had me thinking like a purple ocean
Oh, what a line for me to start this song
You may be sleeping by an open door and ...
You may be saying that these words are wrong.
Take a look at my new toy
It will blow the head off of a boy
Truth hits everybody, truth hits everyone.
You had me thinking in a backwards motion
You use no Scope to smell you daddy's breath
She does not choose to use no suntan lotion
If you don't like the words, then you can guess
Where you want to be, can't you ever see?

"No! That's wrong; I'm always right
I love to get in arguments, I love to fight
Of course I'm right, I'm never wrong."
He's as gullible, he played the fool all along
People like you should be punched
Punched right in the face!
Feeding us your lies
gonna put you in your place
smash your face, oh yeah!
You're such a fool
still you keep your cool
and when you're proven wrong
then you're not so strong.
I'm through with holding any trust in you
I should have known all along
your made up truth was nothing but a con

| I Detest | |
|
Money makes the world go round,
in every city and every town
Everybody has to work
But no one gets what they deserve
The IRS and Uncle Scam have manufactured a master plan to profit off all our hard work!
I DETEST the IRS for taking money our of our paychecks
They got our number and they know what we make
They're always trying to get a slice of the cake
The profit and money means a better way of living life
The American dream, I don't know about you, but maybe for them
The IRS is not for me.

| It Won't Happen Again | |
|
It's been a long time since I've put up with you
It's been a long time since I've dealt with you
The complaining and moaning and bitching and groaning
Laughing and hating and silence and frustration
It's been a long time and I'm not about to let it happen again
Why is that you persist
My only reaction can be to resist,
You enter my life and only cause strife
It's been one time to many
I've had it!
What can I do with you
These times are too hard for me to see through
Why is it always the same
Your existence alone drives me insane
When I look around you're always there hounding me
No matter what I do, it seems that I can't break free
Won't let it happen again
That's right, I need some room to breathe
So I act mean to make you leave, but you don't understand!

| Puppet Show | |
|
Looking, laughing, talking all your shit
Wondering if you live your life just so you can fit
Could it be real
Or you're a fake
Nobody's that way ... Give me a fucking break
No recognition is what we should give
to people like this that tell me how to live
The ones who criticize, they gossip and they smile,
the people that live the way that they decide
This is not a puppet show
No one in the world is hanging on a string
Take a look around, there are people everywhere
They might be doing circles but it's their own thing.

| Thorn in My Side | |
|
Remember these words "I'll never let you down"
"You are my friend and you can talk to me"
so why am I?(so why am I?)
still standing all alone
That's not the way it's supposed to be
THORN IN MY SIDE
TALK ABOUT ME, KISS MY ASS
THORN IN MY SIDE
I FELT IT JABBING THE FIRST TIME THAT YOU LIED...
DEEP INSIDE
You gave me silence, I tried to talk to you
I got denied and tried to think it through
You had no reason, I saw no warning sign
You think I'll stick around, you must be on glue
So now I'm thinking, you'll turn your back on me
The second you find a better place to be
It's in our nature to hurt each other
I'll never find my place in this world of greed

| Tollbridge | |
|
Well it's been a long time
since I learned about the bridge
I try sneaking by
but it's my feelings that I pay with
TIRED OF GIVING, TIRED OF CARING
ON THE TOLLBRIDGE, I'M FORCED TO PAY MY WAY
SOME MAY TRY TO SLIDE RIGHT BY
THINKING LIFE'S JUST A FREE RIDE
I WANTED EVERYTHING FOR FREE
BUT I KNOW IT WILL NEVER BE
Have no money to pay with
and it seems that the bridge is closed
humble feelings, eating crow
better try another road
YOU HAVE GOT TO SHOW CONTROL
THERE'S SO MUCH YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW
As I cross the bridge I watch my step
"better get out of here"
gotta pay my dues, wanna earn respect
next time I hope that they don't refuse

| Another Step | |
|
The iron curtain has been lifted just today
After war is finally over, a faction finds its way
The KGB is evil, tanks are running over people
Can't you see?
This country's on a ship
Navigating to a failing destiny...
They're not afraid to, and won't hesitate to
Take it up another step, take it up another step
Thought old ideals were gone but we were wrong
Now we see it hasn't left, now we see it hasn't left
Another step!

| Don't Miss the Train | |
|
so many different things you can do with your life
so many different things if you have the time
give a little more, give it your best shot
on the right track you can't be stopped
all the things i said that i would do
all the brilliant ideas that slipped right through
sometimes we got to get on and climb aboard
but i was one day late and a dollar short
Chorus:
don't miss the train, don't miss the train don't miss the train,
don't miss the train don't miss the train, don't miss the train
don't miss the train, don't miss the train
it could be the only chance we have
have you ever sat and thought about other things?
living on the street, hanging by a string
letting people take away your name
letting people push you into your grave
what you gotta do is stand up for what is yours
breaking all the barricades, smash the doors
if the chance comes around to save your life
remember, opportunity doesn't always knock twice
Chorus
the decision is entirely up to you
so don't watch the train just pass right through
there is another time that you will meet in life
but the second visit won't be nice
so now you're walking in your sorrow on lonely tracks
hoping for the day the train will come back
light on in the tunnel just up ahead
the train is back but now you're dead...too late
Chorus

| Get Out of This Town | |
|
Picked up a flyer just the other day
My favorite band was coming here to play
Last time they were here no one broke the silence
I hope this time it doesn't turn into a soundtrack for violence
Hanging out in the parking lot and everybody's here
There's the straight edge guys and they're pounding beer
Skaters poppin' ollies and skinheads talkin' shop
But here come the nazis at the end of the block
GET OUT OF THIS TOWN!!!
It's packed in this sweatbox as the band begins to blare
A swarming mass of tattoos, muscles, baldness, and hair
But now there's a target it's a fascist attack
Twenty on one, they know he won't fight back
GET OUT OF THIS TOWN!!!
Got to get out, gotta get out
gotta get out of this town
There's more of us than them but we still don't intervene
The hatred of only a few wrecks everybody's scene
We can overcome their racist shit if everyone's involved
The power of many can crush their few and the problem will be solved
GET OUT OF THIS TOWN!!!

| Death Doesn't Care | |
|
So many people try to do things for themselves
So many heroes should be taken off the shelf
Go see a movie, so far from our reality
Cue up the line to see people hurt and bleed
WE DON'T FLY THE ONLY FLAG ON THE EARTH
AND AS OUR BROTHERS DIE THEY INHERIT THE DIRT
A WHILE BACK THEY WERE CHANTING "KILL SADAM"
BUT DEATH DOESN'T CARE WHAT SIDE YOU'RE ON
WHAT SIDE YOU'RE ON...
Your oldest brother never came back from the war
You had some brothers that you never knew before
So many died, so many T.V.'s lied
the tears they cried, was it really worth your pride?
Here comes the war choose your weapon, choose a side
A million children that we can horrify
We spend our money on ammo, tanks and guns
No cash for education, try to blame it all on drugs
A drunken man has to get his Thursday fill
A brainwashed soldier has to get his daily kill
Die how you want cause either way you lose
And death doesn't care so it's up to you to choose
