WW2
We were ordered by military law
To elope, even before our boat had hit the shore
The bullets knocked us about, thats for sure
Dead cobbers scattered adrift, from the infantrys 1st corp
Now some mates from my own platoon, 1, 2, 3 now 4
Nobody should ever have to witness such gore
Did not matter if you were rich or poor
You were just a target, in this almighty war
If the politicians demanded, they would easily send more
Finally, the west encircled the mad beast, with a rambunctious roar ...

Goodbye Hanoi
This far divided land
Where the rice grows free
Has always had corrupt men
Stopping their life's dreams
It's in their veins
It's not that easy
To make it flow on out
For a thousand years
The same has been
Even when a million men
Wearing blue denim jeans
Came marching in
To change our ways
It's not what this is all about
While the people we trust
Pop out of man-made holes
And look like they've been
...

Blurry Daze
I'm all for peace and the hippie days
We were the children of the 60s, layin' about and lettin' our hair sprout
We were influenced as much as we influenced others
Flower power didn't work, maybe it's just the American way, no doubt
Turning over all the apple carts, should've just turned the other cheek my baby
Some say, I went too far, is it because, i've got such a rebel heart? Maybe.
Hippies have survived since the caveman days
Sometimes hiding behind societies blurry daze
Never wanting to upset the...

This is Killadelphia
Do you want all those dudes hangin' in front of ya momma's crib?
Keep yo' churrin' off the streets and away from where the big boys fib
I'm the king of hardcore and deserve a whole lot of respect
My girls got a badonkadonk butt, it's so ballerific, it's what I expect
I told her to stay the hell away from my precious new hooptie
She tried to give me the third, but I just waved the no finger and popped her booty.
Pimpin' aren't easy man, it's just that I've got that pimp juice, all the girls be wanting
Art lovin' Landis, was the best damn...

Red Rum
Things were always bright n rosy
We could both be left all alone
Until, one day, she started to get a little nosy
I had to be free and allowed to roam
We would still be as one, when we got cosy
But when I told her, she looked as stiff as a gnome
There is no pain in death
just some pain while dying.
I hope my papa wasn't lying,
when I gasp my last breathe.
So go ahead, come, blow my mind
make my face glow, but, please be kind.
She was so fuckin’, god damn forgiving,
at least she was, in the...

Theorise
Theorise being the only one
It's a really easy thing to do
No-one to hold your hand
So few to bury you,
Once you are dead
Theorise; if life was so bland
Roaming with only the one sun
Theorise being alone
You are the last of mankind
Maybe, It's always been just you
Nobody to pass anything on too
With all the knowledge that you've gained
Theorise; all the ancient relics you found
Are simply unable to show
The discoveries,
Left behind.

How US Drug Dealers Launder Their Money
Pys Long do not touch the drugs, baby, this is what I touch, CASH, on a daily basis
Are you ready for this little joint tonight? Come on let's pull faces
Sending up about 100, 150. Big money baby all day, that's all we do
Gonna flip this real quick, get rich baby all day, me and you.
You've got to wrap and seal, you know what I'm saying, wrap and seal
'Cos onetime, a rider got pulled over, they brought the dogs in from LA
Dogs sniffed him out, took 17 from me, so now I gotta wrap it up, when I deal
Vaseline it down and keep it concealed. Take no...

Cleaning Narco Cheddar
When it's all going smooth, you're talking millions weekly
JC is on his way, to pick up bundles of illicit US drug money
Trouble is getting it back to Mexico and depositing in the banking secretly
There are members of the cartel, that have anywhere up to $300 million, pure honey.
Just sitting idle in their houses and they can't spend or use of it, not even a bit
Once you've gone into partnership with the cartels
You're only handling their money or changing it
You can't leave, they'll find you, kidnap your family and Fedex them back as parcels ...

Shut the front door
Get out of my life
Shut the front door
Or you'll be in strife
Like I've told you before
So she don't want you back
I could have told you that
Your fault for being so slack
Now who's wearing the top hat
At least ya don't have to put up with her girlie pack
The new gals at the bar will just think your some stray cat
Get out of my life
Shut the front door
Or you'll be in strife
Like I've told you before
But I miss her so much
I miss her soft touch
I know I was a bit rough
But she messed with...

Pulse 49
Singing high to Fernando and dancing down low in Orlando
When ecstasy suddenly turned to tragedy
They were just out bopping, then he came out just popping
The pulse was beating, while he was out cheating
His wife new about his scouting
But she never thought 'bout the victims
That the families would be counting
Forty nine were just out to dine and wine
Fifty or so, still lying so low, feeling not so fine
He tried to crawl out, just after his last shot
...

Doin' Da Same
Just had a fight in da hood
Just had an offer from a corner girl
Do ya have reason for ya life
Feels like I'll always be doin' da same
Just had a knife thrown in my back
Just had to do what I do
Here to protect just you
Still I wonder why it is
I don't agree with all this
'Bout anyone like you
We keep doin' all the crime
Blowing off niggas all da time
You've got da moves, I can't repeat
You make me feel, like I'm a fool
When everyone else, gets the dance moves
Without a doubt you were born to...
