Gross Misconduct (1989)

NO HOPE (4:12)
Down and out, no place to go. Nothing to give, not a thing to show. Why don't you get up off your lazy ass. Before you let your whole life pass. No one will believe in a thing you do. Why should they, you give 'em no reason to. All you ever did was kid around. Opened your mouth and talked real loud. No Hope - Earning your self respect. No Hope - Is there anything you don't regret? No Hope - Feeling sorry for yourself. No Hope - How many tomorrows do you think are left on the shelf. You think that life should be so grand. That someone else will put it in your hand. But nothing in life is for free. We take up space 'n pay a fee. Never forget the hardened fight. You better hang on with all your might. 'Cause if you beg, steal, lie or borrow. It's here today and gone tomorrow. No Hope - Earning your self respect. No Hope - Is there anything you don't regret? No Hope - Feeling sorry for yourself. No Hope - How many tomorrows do you think are left on the shelf. Trying to keep up with the rat race. Run around at a frantic pace. Have a goal, set in your sight. In the end you'll see the light. You'll see the light.

Meaning: Doing something for yourself.

NO GLOVE NO LOVE (2:51)
Two days before the road we're running to the store. We're loading up on Trojans that we're taking on the tour. We've seen your kind before. You say you're something new. You saw the show, you want to party with the band and crew. We meet a bunch of girls and think they're really cool. We pack the gear and meet them back at the hotel room. Don't expect our love, unless you've got a glove. You'll get infected and rejected, it'll grow on you. No glove, no love - young, dumb and full of cum. No glove, no love - we're only in it for the fun. We start to swap spit. She tells me I'm the king. I say come on let's do it. She says we're gonna swing. She starts to rip her clothes off and dance around the room. I hope this thing is safe, or else I'm doomed. You know, for me it's been just a crazy night. The way this girl is acting, I hope the mood is right. I grab another Trojan, just to play it safe. Now I got double proof just in case it breaks.

Meaning: Safe Sex.

TRUE COLORS (3:48)
Opportunities arise, open your eyes don't decline. Open the door. What's right for you may not be what's right for me. Ultimatums shown us or them I don't know. Open the door. Take our hands cause you know we're your friends. You call me a friend, but stab me in the back again. From this deed now I learn. On you, my back I never turn. What was mine was always yours. But you're slammin' all the doors. True colors my are growing bright. But you're still stuck in a grey life. Jealousy, can't you see what it's done. Open the doors. I thought I knew, what kind of friend are you. Honesty flows through me - with purity. Open the doors. Once again, we were friends, we're through. Because of you and your TRUE COLORS. Let them shine.

Meaning: Being a true friend.

ACCIDENT SCENE (3:12)
We're going out tonight, to watch some people die. We'll watch the parents cry at the accident scene. Cars will crash tonight. Bodies hurled in flight. We're laughing in delight at the accident scene. You know the end is near, so drink another beer. And anticipate their fear at the accident scene. Body organs burst, splattered on the earth. Flat now is your girth at the accident scene. Should have worn your seat belt. You choose your time to die. So now they take your body to the city morgue. Imbalming fluid floods your brain - no way. A car is just the same as a gun, use it wrong you'll kill someone. Learn from. We're laughing at the accident scene. (Repeat).

Meaning: Drinking and driving.

GODZULA (2:25)
Here comes Godzula to stomp on Tokyo. Awakened, nuclear test, he rises, sub-zero. His roar fills you with terror. The very earth he'll break. Man has screwed up once again and God has sealed our fate. GODZULA. GODZULA. Buildings crumble, the power lines are down. Call out the army, they're the hunters now. They try to melt him down with 60 million volts. their efforts are in vein, God's will he must invoke. GODZULA. GODZULA.

Meaning: First sign of the Apocalypse.

E FACTOR (3:08)
You must be bulimic, you never get your fill. With their strength and perseverence they try to break your will. As cunning as a panther, the strength of Hercules. Like crusaders on their quest, the vanquished fall. You hear their cries from wounds once inflicted. Who are they to persecute en execute the convicted? Wave your rights goodbye; their justice - just a lie. Scales of justice tip towards them, we are left to die. EAT. EAT. Never cry 'Defeat', and against 10,000 strong, firmly plant your feet. EAT. EAT. You're not the only one. We carried out our plans never to succumb. THIS IS THE E FACTOR. Wanderingalone, you live your life - no shame. Never crashing through the Darkened Days. You can never bring us down, things you say or do. Watch it man, cause now we're watching you. On a cold blue night, hear them scream in action to in ation, so it seems. If you don't feel it ask the person next to you. This is real life, it's very true.

Meaning: Eating your words and contradicting yourself.

GROSS MISCONDUCT (4:03)
You get what you give. The golden rule, that's life. If you stab me in the back, I'll use that very same knife. Treat me like a man, a human being. You'll get the same in return. Try to set me afire, I'll make sure you live to see me burn. Gross Misconduct that's our golden rule. Gross Misconduct on you. Gross Misconduct every rule I break. Gross Misconduct my rules I'll make. Things in your future reflect from things in the past. You were there to kick me down. Now I'm gonna kick you in the ass. What goes around comes around. A vicious circle so it seems. You heard me sing sweet pain before. Now it's your turn to sing. Gross Misconduct that's our golden rule. Gross Misconduct on you. Gross Misconduct every rule I break. Gross Misconduct my rules I'll make. That's life to each his own. You play a game but we're all full grown. Breaks loose. Gross Misconduct that's our golden rule. Gross Misconduct on you. Gross Misconduct every rule I break. Gross Misconduct my rules I'll make. My rules I'll make.

Meaning: An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

SATAN'S CRONIES (2:37)
Want to tell you about a guy I know. He's got two horns, red eyes that glow. Hallowed be the body without a soul. The weak of mind follow. Lucifer likes to party down. In the depths of hell is where he's bound. Singing a song with a hellish sound. Drinking blood from an open crown... singing: We are satan's cronies, the devil is our friend. It will be the devil that betrays us in the end. We are satan's cronies, the devil is our friend. It will be the devil that betrays us in the end. His mind is full of lies and treachery. Says he knows what you want to be. Slowly sucked in, no longer free. Molded by his hand a slave to be. Sure satan likes to party down. So do I, but not with him around. You'll see him, shit your pants and then leave town. He'll buy your soul then watch you drown... singing: We are satan's cronies, the devil is our friend. It will be the devil that betrays us in the end. We are satan's cronies, the devil is our friend. It will be the devil that betrays us in the end. So here's a little rap. Those of you who believe in the devil and think it's cool. Youz be steaming and burning like human stew. Welcome to Satan's barbecue. Want to tell you about a guy I know. He's got two horns, red eyes that glow. Hallowed be the body without a soul. The weak of mind follow. Lucifer likes to party down. In the depths of hell is where he's bound. Singing a song with a hellish sound. Drinking blood from an open crown... singing: We are satan's cronies, the devil is our friend. It will be the devil that betrays us in the end. We are satan's cronies, the devil is our friend. It will be the devil that betrays us in the end. We are satan's cronies, the devil is our friend. It will be the devil that betrays us in the end. We are satan's cronies, the devil is our friend. It will be the devil that betrays us in the end.

Meaning: For those who worship the Devil.

IN THE CITY (1:58)
(Music & Lyrics by: Fear)
My house smells just like a zoo. It's chock full of shit and puke. Cockroaches on the walls. Grass growing on my balls. Oh well I'm so clean cut and I just want to fuck some slut.
I love living in the city. I love living in the city.
I've spent my whole life in the city where junk is king and the air smells shitty. People puking everywhere. Piles of blood, scabs, and hair. Bodies wasted and disease. Young people dying on the streets. But the suburban scumbags they don't care. They just get fat and die their hair.
I love living in the city. I love living in the city.

COME AS YOU ARE (2:44)
Come as you are. What's the point of blending in. Don't look at me, Mr. Wanna Be. You can't even fill your own shoes. Come as you are. You'll be the one to rise above. Being fake is being dead. Change your face, then change your head. Me. You. You. Me. That's the way it's gotta be. Come as you are. Take my advive, leave that crowd behind. Nothing to lose, everything to gain. So listen before you turn away. Come as you are. Reclaim your identity. Before its lead astray. See it all for what it is. Me. You. You. Me. That's the way it's gotta be. Me. You. All. Come as you are! What's the point of blending in. Being fake is being dead. Nothing to lose, everything to gain. See it all for what it is. Me. You. You. Me. That's the way it's gotta be!

Meaning: Being yourself.

THEME SONG (2:06)
I'm Billy Milano, I'm a bold courageous man. He is, he is, yes, yes, he is. A knight without armour in a bold savage land. He is, he is, yes, yes, he is. I protect all fair maidens and damsels in distress. He does, he does, yes, yes, he does. I'll try and comfort you, but first take off your dress. You're good, you're good, oh so, so good. I'm lean, mean cruel, obscene, not only am I Elvis. Sometimes I'm James Dean. We are M.O.D. and we are on Megaforce. (Jon Z). Not just a record label, a guiding light - we're never lost. (Jon Z). Jon and Marsha manage, Jeff and Leslie book our shows. (Jon Z). We write the songs and play the town and make friends on the road. (Marsha screaching). I'm lean, mean cruel, obscene, not only am I Elvis. Sometimes I'm James Dean. I'm lean, mean cruel, obscene, not only am I Elvis. Sometimes I'm James Dean. I'm Billy Milano, I'm a bold courageous man. He is, he is, yes, yes, he is. A knight without armour in a bold savage land. He is, he is, yes, yes, he is.

Cause you won't be the one who's made it as a fake. P.B.M.

THE RIDE (5:00)
The rides are fast, the thrill is mean. Your heart is pumping, you're sure to scream. You'll always go, for another ride. The second time, you'll be on the other side. You hold on tight, you have no sight, not even a clue. The carnie man has a plan, they know what to do. Round and round and round and round and round you go. Where you get off, only we'll know. You find yourself in a cold room of glass. Signs of counless children, reflections past. Things you knew and loved are hard to see. Your body's empty, your wills been taken by me. Submerged - Tell ya what I'm gonna do. Submerged - Someone's gonna make a slave out of you. Submerged - Not really sure the price you'll bring. Submerged - And you're not gonna say anything. Submerged - Now for the shocking truth. Submerged - Our conditioning it's "fool proof". Submerged - Endless stock, supply and demand. Submerged - How about another ride, the kiddies ride for free. Another day, another town. Gather round for the greatest show on earth. That's it folks, there's for one and all. And the kiddies ride for free.

Meaning: Substance abuse
