1. PRISON SONG

They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison

(Growl)

Following the rights movements you clamped on with your iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for all the kids
Following the rights movements you clamped on with your iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for all the kids

[Daron]

I buy my crack, I smack my bitch, right here in Hollywood
Nearly 2 million Americans are incarcerated in the the prison system, prison system,
Prison system of the U.S

[Chorus]

(They're trying to build a prison!)
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
(For you and me to live in!)
Another prison system
Another prison system
Another prison system
(For you and me to live in!)

Minor drug offenders fill your prisons you don't even flinch
All our taxes paying for your wars against the new non-rich
x2

[Daron]

The percentage of Americans in the prison system prison system, has doubled since 1985

[Chorus]

For you and I!
x3

They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
For you and me
Oh baby, you and me

(Growl x2)

All research and successful drug policy show that treatment should be increased
(Growl)
And law enforcement decreased while abolishing mandatory minimum sentences
(Growl)
All research and successful drug policy show that treatment should be increased
(Growl)
And law enforcement decreased while abolishing mandatory minimum sentences
(Growl)
(Growl)

Utilizing drugs to pay for secret wars around the world
Drugs are now your global policy, now you police the globe

[Daron]

Drug money is used to rig elections
And train brutal corporate sponsored dictators around the world

[Chorus]

For you and I!
x3

They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
They're trying to build a prison
For you and me
Oh baby, you and me

2. NEEDLES

I, cannot disguise
All the stomach pains
And the walking with the canes
When you, do come out
And you whisper up to me in your life of tragedy

But I cannot grow
Till you eat the last of me
Oh when will I be free
And you,
A parasite
Just find another host
Just another fool to roast

Cause
You[growl]... My tape worm tells me what to do
You[growl]... My tape worm tells me where to go

Pull the tape worm out of your ass... HEY! [x4]

I cannot deny
All the evil traits and the filling of the crates
When you [you]
Do come out [out]
And you slither up to me your pimpin majesty

But I cannot grow
Till you eat the last of me
Oh when will I be free
And you, (you)
A parasite, (site)
Just find another host
Just another stool to post

Cause
You[growl]... My tape worm tells me what to do
You[growl]... My tape worm tells me where to go

Pull the tape worm out of your ass... HEY! [x3]
Pull the tape worm out of me

Of me

[Daron]
I'm just sitting in my room,
With a needle in my hand
Just waiting for the tomb
Of some old dying man

[Daron and Serj]
Sitting in my room,
With a needle in my hand
Just waiting for the tomb
Of some old dying man

Die [growl]

Cause
You [growl]... My tape worm tells me what to do
You [growl]... My tape worm tells me where to go

Pull the tape worm out of your ass... HEY! [x4]
HEY! [x4]

3. DEER DANCE

Round, round
Circumventing circuses lamenting in protest
To visible police, presence sponsored fear
Battalions of riot police, with rubber bullet kisses
Baton courtesy, service with a smile

Beyond the Staples Center, you can see America
With its tired, poor, avenging disgrace
Peaceful, loving youth against the brutality (nana nana na)
Of plastic existence

Pushing little children
With their fully automatics
They like to push the weak around [x2]

Round, round
A rush of words, pleading to disperse
Upon your naked walls, alive
A political call, the fall guy accord
We can't afford to be neutral on a moving train

Beyond the Staples Center, you can see America
With its tired, poor, avenging disgrace
Peaceful, loving youth against the brutality (nana, nana, na)
Of plastic existence

Pushing little children
With their fully automatics
They like to push the weak around [x2]

Push them around...
A deer dance
Invitation to peace
War staring you in the face
Dressed in black
With a helmet, fierce
Trained and appropriate for the malcontents,
For the disproportioned malcontents
The little boy smiled, it'll all be well
And say the little boy smiled, it'll all be well

Pushing little children,
With the fully automatics,
They like to push the weak around [x3]

Push the weak around
Push the weak around
Push the weak around
They like to push the weak around.

4. JET PILOT

[Chorus]
Wired were the eyes of a horse on a jet pilot,
One that smiled when he flew over the bay
x2

My horse, is a shackled old man
His, his remorse
Was that he couldn't survey
The skies, right before
Right before, they went grey
My horse, and my remorse
Flying over a great bay

[Chorus]

My source, is the source of all creation
Her, discourse, is that we all don't survey
The skies, right before
Right before, they go grey
My source and my remorse
Flying over a great bay

[Chorus]

Where were the eyes of a horizontal jet pilot,
One that smiled when he flew over the bay
x2

[Chorus]

Where were the eyes of a horizontal jet pilot,
When he smiled when he flew over the bay
x2

6. CHOP CUEY

Wake up
Grab a brush and put a little make-up (make-up)
Grab a brush and put a little
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup (shakeup)
Hide the scars to fade away the
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
Here you go, create another fable

You wanted to!
Grab a brush and put a little make-up
You wanted to!
Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup
You wanted to!
Why'd you leave the keys upon the table?
You wanted to!

In, my, self-righteous suicide
I, cry, when angels deserve to die
DIE!

Rahhh!

In your thoughts forsaken me
In your heart forsaken me, oh
Trust in my self-righteous suicide

In my self-righteous suicide

7. BOUNCE

Jump..
Bounce..
Down..
Up..

I went out on a date
With a girl, a bit late
She had so many friends
(Gliding through many hands)
I brought my pogo stick
Just to show her a trick
She had so many friends
(Gliding through many hands)

[Chorus]
Jump! Pogo...
Bounce! Pogo...
Down! Pogo...
Up! Pogo...

Unannounced twister games

All players with no names
They lined up double quick
But just one pogo stick
Everyone gets to play
Runaway, expose
It was so exotic
But just one pogo stick

[Chorus]

Oh, I like to spread you out
Touching whoever's behind

[Chorus]

8. FOREST

Walk with me my little child[ah!]
To the forest of denial[ah!]
Speak with me my only mind
Walk with me until the time
Make the forest turn to wine
You take the legend for a fall
You saw the product

[Chorus]
Why can't you see that you are my child?
Why don't you know that you are my mind?
Tell everyone in the world, that I'm you
Take this promise to the end of you

Walk with me my little, friend!
Take this promise to the end[ah!]
Speak with me my only mind
Walk with me until the end
And make the forest turn to sand
You take the legend for a fall
You saw the product

[Chorus]

Take this promise for a ride
You saw the forest, now come inside
You took the legend for its fall
You saw the product of it all
No televisions in the air
The circumcisions on the chair
You made the weapons for us all
Just look at us now!

[Chorus]

9. A.T.W.A.

Nanananana...
Nanananana...

Hey you, see me
Pictures crazy
All the world I've seen before me passing by

I've got, nothing
To gain, to loose
All the world I've seen before me passing by

(Chorus)
You don't care about how I feel
I don't feel it anymore
You don't care about how I feel
I don't feel it anymore
You don't care about how I feel
I don't feel it anymore
You don't care about how I feel
I don't feel it anymore

Anymore, Nanananana...

Hey you, are me
Not so pretty
All the world I've seen before me passing by

Silent my voice
I've got no choice
All the world I've seen before me passing by

[Chorus]

I don't see (Anymore!)
I don't hear (Anymore!)
I don't speak (Anymore!)
I don't feel

Nanananana...
Nanananana...

Hey you, see me
Pictures crazy
All the world I've seen before me passing by

I've got, nothing
To gain, to loose
All the world I've seen before me passing by

[Chorus]

I don't sleep (Anymore!)
I don't eat (Anymore!)
I don't live (Anymore!)
I don't feel (Anymore!)

10. SCIENCE

Making two possibilities a reality
Predicting the future of things we all know
Fighting of the diseased programming
Of centuries, centuries, centuries, centuries,
Science fails to recognise the single most
Potent element of human existence
Letting the reigns go to the unfolding
Is faith, faith, faith, faith

[Chorus]
Science has failed our World
Science has failed our Mother Earth

Science fails to recognise the single most
Potent element of human existence
Letting the reigns go to the unfolding
Is faith, faith, faith, faith

[Chorus]

Spirit-moves-through-all-things
Spirit-moves-through-all-things
Spirit-moves-through-all-things
[x2]

[Armenian chanting]

Letting the reigns go to the unfolding
Is faith, faith, faith, faith
Letting the reigns go to the unfolding
Is faith, faith, faith, faith

[Chorus]

Spirit-moves-through-all-things
Spirit-moves-through-all-things
Spirit-moves-through-all-things
[x3]

Science has failed our Mother Earth

12. TOXICITY

Conversion, software version 7.0
Looking at life through the eyes of a tire hub
Eating seeds as a pastime activity
The toxicity of our city, of our city

[Chorus]
New, What do you own the world?
How do you own disorder, disorder
Now, somewhere between the sacred silence
Sacred silence and sleep
Somewhere, between the sacred silence and sleep
Disorder, disorder, disorder~

More wood for their fires, loud neighbours
Flashlight reveries caught in the headlights of a truck
Eating seeds as a pastime activity
The toxicity of our city, of our city

[Chorus]

[Chorus]

When I became the sun
I shone life into the man's hearts
When I became the sun
I shone life into the man's hearts

14. AERIALS

Life is a waterfall
We're one in the river
And one again after the fall

Swimming through the void
We hear the word
We lost ourselves, but we find it all...

[Chorus]
Cause we are the ones that want to play
Always want to go, but you never wanna stay
And we are the ones that want to choose
Always want to play, but you never want to lose

Aerials, in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life

Life is a waterfall
We drink from the river
Then we turn around and put up our walls

Swimming through the void
We hear the word
We lost ourselves but we find it all...

[Chorus]

Aerials, in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life

Aerials, so up high
When you free your eyes
Eternal prize

Aerials, in the sky
When you lose small mind
You free your life

Aerials, so up high
When you free your eyes
Eternal prize
