Gas Rag - Beats Off (2014)


Gas Rag-  Beats Off Lyrics

1. Drugs and Violence

light up and smoke, is it something you need?
we all get high, mexico bleeds
sixty thousand dead
sixty thousand are dead

addicted to death

endless war, endless war
it's what they want, it's what they need

it's the human cost of their fucking laws

endless war, endless war
thousands slaughtered and for what

2. Annihilation

another war in the name of religion and we are the pawns
but it's fucking science that gave us the bomb

3. The Clock

who tells us to think what we think? who tells us to do what we do?
what does it mean to be free? what does it mean to have rules?
life by the clock, it's a time bomb

who wears the boot that forces us down?

who tells us to think what we think? who tells us to do what we do?
i want to break everything and learn how to live without rules
it's a hamster's wheel in which we run
life by the clock, it's a time bomb

4. Criminal Gas

got caught, handcuffed, a new court date
maybe could have escaped, now it's too late

their laws, their rules, they're such a waste
another warrant, another state

i can't escape

5. Body Bags

our chance for survival is passing us by
it's mass suicide

take a look towards tomorrow, it's looking bad
see the future in body bags

feeling desperate, feeling bad
smell the future on a gas rag

6. Beat Off

jack booths, licking feet, poppers, body heat
piss pigs, fetish skins, boot boys, leather men

beat off and feeling free

7. Endless Vietnam

a new nazi germany, endless vietnam
a recession-proof industry
money to be made

new world order war machine beats off on iran
investing in misery
someone will pay

a civil war in syria
money in their banks

8. Against the Law

at our gigs and out in the streets
don't know who they help, it's us who they beat
who does the crimes?
who gets to judge?
who has the power?
who has the guns?

9. Life in a Bomb Shelter

living in fear in a nuclear age
life in a bomb shelter it's so insane

are you looking for security, safety inside of a house?
i'm not ready for life underground. no

10. Mass Grave

salute the flag
so proud
a new scapegoat shot down

their answer lies in a mass grave

walking in line
so proud
hunting them down
so proud

11. It's a Gift

a bomb rips apart flesh
a lesson in progress as he meets his death
primitive man, killing machines
share our values and democracy

a lesson in violence until they break

teach them to vote while we force them to kneel
teach them to serve, show them god's will

the white man's burden
our democracy
it's such a gift
