My fascination with mutilation the fuel I use to become a champion
I ain’t afraid to say I’m a sadist, Inflicting pain is making me famous
Because I’ve heard it stated to be the greatest
You’ve got to make them bleed till you’re hated
Oh well I say you haven’t bled till you’ve bladed
Or been berated on the face with a rusty serrated razor
I’m gonna suffer as we cut up each other
And I bludgeon and pummel before I go for the cover
I give them color
I wanna feel the force of a fork informing my forehead
A foreign object, a barbed wire bound 2 x 4 that is set afire
Because they say that IWA is how you spell success in this industry
And I embody that Kawasaki philosophy
And part of me is partial to bodily harm and agony
I’ll give them an ounce
It’s never as bad as it seems
And like the arms of the American Dream
I am covered with the scars of every victory
Every defeat
My body is blue and black
And thumbtacks and broken glass are shredding my face up to a crimson mask
Because they say that to be the greatest
You never, ever give up your dreams
Well, I’m a Dreamer, a Widowmaker, a ‘Taker, a Nature Boy, a Mad Dog
A Butcher, Vachon or Abdullah
I’ll give them an ounce
It’s never as bad as it seems
I’ll give a gallon
I am taking it to the extreme
I’ll give them Cobo
I am Bobo I’m gigging the Sheik
And like the arms of the American Dream
I am covered with the scars of every victory
Every defeat
And now you’re all gonna suffer
I give them color

This incident
The hardest of your life
Is this what you wanted
You’re always spitting and cursing
It’s infinite
The constant is your fight
Is this what you wanted
The carnage crippling your courage
Your courage is gone
A heartbroken hitman
You’ll do it again
The power is in your hands
You’ll do it again
This incident
The hardest of your life
You’re right where you started
You’re always twisting and turning
It’s infinite
The spiral is your vice
The best that there is and there was
You’ll never become
And that “will be” is gone
Around and again
I am caught in a spin
And I ought to begin
To assess my own skin
Why can’t I see
I indeed have amnesia
I need you to make it all end
You’ll do it again

Cheap Heat

Cheap heat keeps me
Reigned in at the wrist
Because words are like a whip
When you can’t make a fist
If I had your attention
I would tell you all
Some peace and calm
Is what I’d like to have right now
Cheap heat makes me
Tell you like it is
And you’re all worthless
Yeah, you’re filthy fucking pigs
Everyone I see
No apologies
I will not tire
Of firing this cheap heat
If I could have all your attention at once
I would spit in your faces while spilling my guts
All you ugly, disgusting and pathetic punks
Make me sick to my stomach
You’re not worth the vomit that keeps coming up
When I see all you repulsive fucks
But if I could have all your attention at once
Baby it will be
Simply ravishing
No apologies
