Now you've heard two keyboard tracks Another started playing when I started rap I've never tried before I may never wanna go back Now that I'm trying I'd better not be whack Mathematic symbols to the nth degree I raise myself above the stars, I fly infinity It takes a different kind approach Or the planets collide Nothing really matters now That I've seen the galaxy I'm not sure if you're hiding there Right in the sunlight Just to be sure I put up absolutely no fight I know it's up to me when I create the light But now there's some darkness And I'll shed some MOONLIGHT! AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I am going to make everything alright You thought your files were all saved to disk But your floppy drive technology Just no longer exists You can't back it up When the drive no longer spins When it comes to the end, my friend I know I'll won't let go again AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I am going to make everything alright AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH Now I have to make things right AAAAAAAAAAAAAH I am going to make everything alright

If you hold your guns Hold my ground, roll snake eyes Cross my path, and prepare to die Burning sun, the time turns high Slowing down, as it's TIME TO RISE! If you hold your gun I'm gonna shoot first Staring you down you'd better be quick I'm coming for you Read my lips I'm here for you now And I'll make it real quick Yeah... Stake high ground, prepare for floods I'll ruin your crops, and murder your stock Save your souls, I'm rollin' right in Never again will things BE AGAIN! If you hold your gun I 'm gonna shoot first Staring you down you'd better be quick I'm coming for you Read my lips I'm here for you now And I'll make it real quick Yeah... Fire, water, earth and wind Cast a stone if you have not sinned Fear of the demon, down below Hold your children While I torch the whole show! If you hold your gun, I'm gonna shoot first Staring you down you'd better be quick I'm coming for you, read my lips I'm here for you now And I'll make it real quick Yeah... If you hold your gun I'm gonna shoot first Staring you down you'd better be quick I'm coming for you Read my lips I'm here for you now And I'll make it real quick Yeah

AAAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAAH (YOOOOOOOOOOOOO!) I've had dreams Of me being me Spinning around Making the sound, I seem to bite my mind From front to back, double density down Write to disk, compile and run Demagnetization Project's wiped, it's really gone It's gone It's gone My system is wrong Blue blue background, Blue blue background Blue blue background, Blue background (I'm gonna have to get respect) Blue blue background, Blue blue background Blue blue background, Blue background (I'm gonna have to hit reset) Blue blue background, Blue blue background Blue blue background, Blue background (I'm gonna have to get respect) Blue blue background, Blue blue background Blue blue background, Blue background (I'm gonna have to hit reset) Blue blue background, Blue blue background Blue blue background, Blue background Blue blue background, Blue blue background Blue blue background, Blue background (YOOOOOOOOOOOOO!)

Bad by Design 04:50

BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD Thunderclouds, lightning crash into the ground Saber-tooth, tigers hanging all around Standing proud, fist in the sky and shout No mercy, no matter how you beg or plead BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD, by design I'm bad by design I'm bad by design I'm bad by design Sacrifice, your firstborn or your wife Burning sky, anti-matter from my eyes Destroy you all, every nation is gonna fall All mankind, has no hope at all BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD, by design BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD, by design I'm bad by design I'm bad by design I'm bad by design Fear of me, you get down on your knees Suddenly, you no longer breathe! BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD, by design By design Save your souls Every one belongs to me The end of time Very soon, just watch the sky Illuminate, six feet down is great Take your time, I don't mind the wait You will see, save the last dance for me! Final run, you won't make the end my son! BAAAAAAAAAAAAAD, by design

I've got a picture of us holding hands We look so happy, and neither look sad Put together in an ordinary frame Doesn't mean it's not special all the same If I would I would fall in love with you girl Turn you ooooooooooooon Turn you ooooooooooooon Wake up Sunday, shake off your head Make some breakfast, and go back to bed Sleep it off And wake up at dawn Make love twice, and feel the warmth! If I would I would fall in love with you girl Turn you ooooooooooooon Turn you ooooooooooooon Snake bite, bit me, now I'm endeared Wanting, pleasing, feeling your hair Holding, touching, pleasant affair Makes me wanting some of you here If I would I would fall in love with you girl Turn you ooooooooooooon Turn you ooooooooooooon If I would I would fall in love with you girl Turn you ooooooooooooon Turn you ooooooooooooon If I would I would fall in love with you girl Turn you ooooooooooooon Turn you ooooooooooooon If I would I would fall in love with you girl Turn you ooooooooooooon Turn you ooooooooooooon

Yeah... AHA-AHA AHA-AHA Yeah... It's hitting me hard Just like a shard of glass that frightens you This is the day that I will come for you You know when your number's up I know that you know so much On this day that I think I learned too much This is the day... AHA-AHA This is the day... AHA-AHA, YEAH! This is the day... AHA-AHA This is the day... AHA-AHA, YEAH This is the... day... Demanding, enduring A spaceship pursuing Higher in the sky than any other kinda guy Saviour or sinner, doesn't really matter Either one's a winner 'Cause this is that day... AHA-AHA YEAH! 'Cause this is that day... AHA-AHA 'Cause this is that day... AHA-AHA YEAH! 'Cause this is that day... AHA-AHA 'Cause this is that... day... AHA-AHA YEAH! AHA-AHA AHA-AHA YEAH! Radiation storage explosion Then something unrelated Like orders to turn around Super laser fighting That's faster than the speed of sound And faster than lightning And anything you'd find around This is the day... AHA-AHA This is the day... AHA-AHA, YEAH! This is the day... AHA-AHA This is the day... AHA-AHA, YEAH This is the day... AHA-AHA AHA-AHA YEAH! Radiation... AHA-AHA Storage explosion... AHA-AHA YEAH!

She's Better than You 03:59

Well I was surprised that morning I couldn't believe what you'd had said You'd said to me that you were gonna leave me There's nothing I could do about it 'Cause you'd had made up your mind about it And all that I could do was go to work I know that you're never coming back But I don't care 'cause I'm totally over you girl And I know that you will never ever Come back home, but I don't care 'Cause I don't love you any more... Time went past my window daily Night-time passed, I passed away There's nothing I could do but go to work Then one day came by my window A window I had to take or else I asked a girl to spend some time with me I know that you're never coming back But I don't care 'cause I'm totally over you girl And I know that you will never ever Come back home, but I don't care 'Cause I don't love you any more... As time gets on I'm letting go No turning back down the yellow road And all I had to do was move right on from you I had to clear you out of my mind Make some room for the love For the girl of my life She is the one for me For the rest of all known time I know that you're never coming back But I don't care 'cause I'm totally over you girl And I know that you will never ever Come back home, but I don't care 'Cause I don't love you any more... I know that you're never coming back But I don't care 'cause I'm totally over you girl And I know that you will never ever Come back home, but I don't care 'Cause I don't love you any more...
