N.f.l
Anthrax

It started back in high school
So cool, king of the scene
You found that making people laugh
Was more than just a dream
The public took right to you
Like flies to a pile of shit
So funny and smart, so talented
But success just couldn't fit

Wasting your life no future bright
Dancing on your grave
Living like a slave, someone should've said...

N.f.l., efilnikufesin n.f.l.
N.f.l., efilnikufesin n.f.l.

Wake up dead in a plywood bed
Six feet from the rest of your life
And when you couldn't see your own dependency

N.f.l., nice fuckin' life

The whole world is your playground
Yet you can't find your niche
Your only friends, it helps you through
Helps you dig your daily ditch
The bottom line can't touch you
Cause you're above the rest
But your little friend's the enemy
And the bottom line is death

You lived a life of excess
Goddamn shame it's such a waste
Just one too many cookies
From the batch no one should taste
Yet his memory stills stays with us
Cause watching him was fun
Too bad things weren't different
Who knows what he'd have done

Misery Loves Company
Anthrax

I can hear you, I can hear you, lying
I can see you, I can see you, faking
I don't think you're, I don't think
you're, working
I want you to,
I want you to, I want you to...

Write for me, and only me
A really extra special story
Make it mine, every line
Don't make me sorry
It's what I want, It's what I want
And I'll tell you what
You know me, and I can be
A very, very vicious critic
Another fans appreciation
A do-be, don't-be situation
Drag me down into your hatred

Misery loves company
I'm your number one fan
Misery loves company
Misery
Misery loves company
I'm your number one fan
Misery loves company
Die with me

I'll take good care, I'll take great care of you
Listen to me, listen to me you fool
Body and soul, body and soul, you're mine
I want you to,
I want you to, I want you to...

Write for me, and only me
A really extra special story
Make it mine, every line
Don't make me sorry
It's what I want, It's what I want
And I'll tell you what
You know me, and I'll show you
How to keep your filthy mouth shut
Another fans appreciation
A do-be, don't-be situation
Drag me down into your hatred

Misery loves company
I'm your number one fan
Misery loves company
Misery
Misery loves company
I'm your number one fan
Misery loves company
Die with me

Take, take, take, take, another
pound of my flesh
I'm givin' blood
You, you, you, you, should only have the best
I'm givin' blood

What the hell is, what the hell is happening?
I'm the one that made you into the king
Don't turn your back on, turn your back on,
my help
I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I will
I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill...

Write for me, and only me
A really extra special story
Make it mine, every line
Don't make me sorry
It's what I want, It's what I want
And I'll tell you what
You know me, and I can be
A very, very vicious critic
Another fans appreciation
A do-be, don't-be situation
Drag me down into your hatred

Milk (ode To Billy)
Anthrax

(milano/benante/lilker/rosenfeld)
Verse 1
I woke up, can't wait to eat
Got my cereal, boy was i beat
Opened the fridge, and to my dismay
There was no milk, my mother will pay
Chorus
I want some milk!
My coffee grows cold
I want some milk!
I should've been told
Bridge
I wish i had some goddamn milk
My cheerios just ain't the same
I wish i had some goddamn milk
Too bad the milkman never came
Verse 2
I can't go, out to the store
I'll just wait 'till mommy buys more
I'll just have, wheat thins and beer
If i get sick the toilet is near
Chorus
Bridge
Chorus

Metal Thrashing Mad
Anthrax

Racing down the road
In a street machine of steel
Gears are jammed in full
I'm the madman at the wheel

Got my foot pinned to the floor
You can feel the engine roar
I got thunder in my hands
I'm metal thrashing mad

Driving like a maniac
Can't go any faster
Burning up the road
Headed for disaster

 

[helldanger1]

Medusa
Anthrax

Endless curse, blood runs cold
Evil stare, will turn your flesh to stone
Land of doom, world of sin
All subside, don't venture near
The island where she lives
Oh, she'll suck you in

Destroyer of life, Demon
Oh I'm ready to strike, Gorgon

Serpents bride, the end awaits
Human prey, no swords or armor
Shield you from your fate
Hey you, you can't escape
Wicked smile, full of lies
Head of snakes, approch her cave
But don't look in her eyes
Oh, her eyes

Sieze, appease, deceive, die

Medusa, she's staring at you
Medusa, with her eyes

Evil witch, cast her spell, seducing you
She'll take you to the very depths of hell
cannot move, no eyes to see, a statue now
For all eternity Medusa laughs at you
And you're her slave

Medusa, she's staring at you
Medusa, with her eyes
Medusa, oh she's cold

Make Me Laugh
Anthrax

Spread the word
Through me God is heard
You're making me laugh
Tell me your killin'joke
Evangelist
You're making me laugh
Jesus saves
But only after I've been paid
You're making me laugh
Tell me your killin'joke
Evangelist
End your hoax

God says have a T.V. show
God says baby do some blow
God says taxes are a sin
God says pour the money in
Rape the poor, faith no more
Faith for cash, make me laugh
Faith no more, face the whore
Rape your past, make me laugh

Never, never, ever sin
Unless God says to stick it in
You're making me laugh
Tell me your killin'joke
Evangelist
The truth can choke
Defrocked from your seat
Don't shit where you eat
You're making me laugh
Tell me your killin'joke
That God talks to you
There's no hope

God says have a T.V. show
God says baby do some blow
God says taxes are a sin
God says pour the money in
Rape the poor, faith no more
Faith for cash, make me laugh
Faith no more, face the whore
Rape your past, make me laugh

God says have a swimming pool
God say keep the doghouse cool
God says planes and boats and cars
God says have an amusement park
God says go and masturbate
God says file taxes late
God says paint your face all sick
God says be a real prick
God says have a T.V. show
God says baby do some blow
God says taxes are a sin
God says pour the money in

Madhouse
Anthrax

White coats to bind me, out of control
I live alone inside my mind
World of confusion, air filled with noise
Who says that my life's such a crime?

Trapped, in this nightmare
I wish I'd wake
As my whole life begins to shake
Four walls, surround me
An empty gaze
I can't find my way out of this maze

'cause I don't care
Fall in, fall out
Gone without a doubt, help me
I can't take the blame
They don't feel the shame

It's a madhouse
Or so they claim
It's a madhouse
Oh, am I insane?

My fears behind me, what can I do
My dreams haunt my sleep at night
Oh no, won't learn their lesson, white fills my eyes
And only then they see the light

Love Her All I Can
Anthrax

I remember the times I was lonely without her
Now she's mine and I spend my times dreamin' about her

Love her all I can and try to understand
The things that make her glad
The things that make her sad
I'm a lucky guy, I hardly ever cry
And when the world looks bad
She's never ever sad

She's so easy to please and it doesn't take money, no, no
We can have a good time when the skies aren't sunny

Ah, I love her all I can and try to understand
The things that make her glad
The things that make her sad
I'm a lucky guy, I hardly ever cry
And when the world looks bad
She's never ever sad
Whoo

I remember the times I was lonely without her
Now she's mine and I spend my time dreamin' about her

I love her all I can and try to understand
The things that make her glad
The things that make her sad
I'm a lucky guy, I hardly ever cry
And when the world looks bad
She's never ever sad

Looking Down The Barrel Of A Gun
Anthrax

Rolling down the hill snowballing getting bigger
An explosion in the chamber the hammer from the trigger
I seen him get stabbed
I watched the blood spill out
He had more cuts than my man Chuck Chillout
24 is my age 22 is my gauge
Writing rhymes on a page going off in a rage
Out on a mission a stolen car mission
Had a little problem with the transmission
3 on the tree in the middle of the night
I have this steak on my head
cause I got into a fist fight
Life comes in phases take the good with the bad
You bought those coins on the street and you got had
It's all high spirit you know you gotta hear it
Don't touch the mic baby don't come near it

It's gonna get you it's gonna get you
It's gonna get you girl it's gonna get you

Looking down the barrel of a gun
Son of a gun son of a bitch

Getting paid getting rich
Ultra violence running through my head
Fuzzy navel y'all making me see red
Rapid fire Louie like Rambo got bullets
I'm a gonna die harder like my kid
Bruce Willis Drummond
I love girlies waxing and milking
Got more excuses than my man Dave Scilkin
Predetermined destiny is who I am
You got your finger on the trigger like
the Son of Sam I am
Like Clockwork Orange going off on the town
I've got posse bonanza to beat your ass down
I'm mad at my desk and I'm writing all curse words
Expressing my aggressions through my
schizophrenic verse words
You're a headless chicken chasin'
a sucker free basin
Looking for a fist to put your face in
Get hip don't slip knuckle heads
Racism is schism on the serious tip

Lone Justice
Anthrax

There's two kinds, of people in the world
The outlaws, and the lawmen that prevail
The bounty hunter's job is on the wrong side of the law
Intentions, of the truth and nothing more

Burn'em, clear the streets as he rides into the town
Cause the nameless one's gonna have some fun
He's gonna bring an outlaw down
Wasted, it's over quick he's nailed 'em three for three
Then he with his squint-eyed grin and stubbled chin
He rides through history
The jury, in his mind the choices weigh
The trials, if you're gulity you're his prey
No judgement otherwise can change the lust
That's in his eyes
The sentence, will be carried out in stride

No name, like a shadow on a moonies night
Real game, He'll be there to uphold
Justice, law and order
And you'll pay, the highest fee
When the gunslinger takes his piece

The money, it's the price you have to pay
When he calls, drop your eyes and look away
The man has taken life to balance scales of wrong and right
Existence, each day a moral fight.

London
Anthrax

[originally performed by the smiths]

Smoke
Lingers 'round your fingers
Train, heave on to euston
Do you think you've made
The right decision this time?

You left your tired family grieving
And you think they're sad because you're leaving
But did you see the jealousy in the eyes
Of the ones who had to stay behind?
And do you think you've made
The right decision this time?

You left
Your girlfriend on the platform
With the really ragged notion that you'll return
But she knows that when he goes
He really goes
And do you think you've made
The right decision this time?

King Size
Anthrax

I want to be part of the program
I want to be part of the whole damn thing
I say, minimum effort, maximum gain
From the inside out it all looks the same
Making me feel stronger
Making me feel like The Hulk I¹ll be
King Size

Here it is,
I¹ll stake my claim and I¹ll be first to warn you
Here it is,
I think the devil lives in California

Check out the freak I¹m laughing
Excuse me are you talking to me ?
I say, minimum effort, maximum gain
From the inside out it all looks the same
Making me feel harder
Making me feel like The Hulk I¹ll be
King Size

Here it is,
I¹ll stake my claim and I¹ll be first to warn you
Here it is,
I think the devil lives in California

I¹m on a mission, I¹m on a mission
For my survival, my king size position
I¹m on a mission, in my condition
Outside my world I know there¹s
No place like home
I¹m on a mission, my king size position
Outside my world I know there¹s
No place like home
I can¹t stop my life from crashing
Out of control, I¹m out of control
Nothing to fear but fear itself and me

I, I¹d never sell my soul
I never did a god-damn thing beause
I¹d never sell my soul for something that¹s free
Minimum effort, maximum gain
From the inside out it all looks the same
Nothing to fear but fear itself and,
Nothing to fear but fear itself and,
Check out the freak and I¹m still laughing
Nothing to fear but fear itself and me

Here it is,
I¹ll stake my claim and I¹ll be first to warn you
Here it is,
I think the devil lives in California

Killing Box
Anthrax

I have always been an experiment in terror
At least I can only kill you once
Standing aloof when I made up my mind
Reaching, why it's better to be blunt

Your walking point through my minefield
You gotta get out
Your on point in my minefield
Forever waiting for a road map

Speak, say something, answer me

I left you in a killing box

Sketchy's not a name you can pin on my
I'll start a revolt with my honesty
A piece of you burns every time you like
So lets start a war, just to see how many die

Keep It In The Family
Anthrax

Mankind,
The public enemy's not the man who speaks his mind
The public enemy's the man that goes and acts blind
Searching for an answer that he'll never find
An action from reaction and you can't make a retraction
Once you've put your head out
And then you're blue in the face,
As you try to state your case

You can think with your dick but it can't shout
Yo, I try to understand what the hell is going on
I can't imagine how things ever got so far gone
You separatists, say you want your own state
I'll give them a state, a state of unconsciousness
Retribution, no solution, constitution
Discrimination, through the nation, raining hatred

I yell, when there's schism you must rebel
I yell, so you'll hear
I yell, I refuse to live, in, your hell
I am what you fear
I'm the truth, I don't keep it in the family
Live your life, take someone else

Keep it in the family
The real world's outside your door
You can't keep it in the family
You've got the longest way to fall

Keep it in the family
Don't even try to tell me what you think is right
When to you blacks are niggers and jews are kikes
And you expect to be taken seriously
But your actions, they're more than curiously
Juvenile, you emulate what you hate
And you don't even know why you feel this way
'Cause daddy hated this and mommy hated that
And your own ability to reason's like a tire gone flat
Yo, I try to understand what the hell is going on
I can't imagine how things ever got so far gone
You separatists, say you want your own state
I'll give them a state, a state of unconsciousness
Retribution, no solution, constitution
Discrimination, through the nation, raining hatred

I yell, when there's schism you must rebel
I yell, so you'll hear
I yell, I refuse to live, in, your hell
I am what you fear
I'm the truth, I don't keep it in the family
Live your life, take someone else

Keep it in the family
The real world's outside your door
You can't keep it in the family
You've got the longest way to fall

When you keep it in the, when you keep it in the,
When you keep it in the family

Acting out of pure cold hatred
'Cause of what another's race is
Color of another's face is
Different, and your own frustrations
Taking on a violent nature
Full of hate, so full of hate
You'd kill a man is that your fate
Your street becomes a police state
Why the hell do you hate?!
Hate, hate!!!
I'm not gonna stand for it
Someone's gonna pay for it
I yell, we rebel
We're the truth and we won't keep it in the family
Live your life, take someone else

Keep it in the family
I'm the thing that you most fear
I don't keep it in the family
I am the truth you won't hear

Keep it in the family
You can't keep it in the family
You've got the longest way to fall
Keep it in the family

Judas Priest
Anthrax

Marking my time on the line
Filthy with the knowledge I'm
Planting seeds, spreading the disease
Rip away, tear up the beams
Ravaged, it's all so damaged

You're locked in
Disinter the ancient ways
Deaf to all that dare to pray
Ravaged, never as savage

And that's the
Price you pay open the door
Find the monster start the war

I'm bound to, bow down to
I am become Death, destroyer of words
A menial place in this infinite swirl
Your pitiful lives, and none more the wise
The human condition is dropping like flies
Unleashed is the beast, the worst of the least
From sheer depraved evil like some Judas Priest
Having his way, my canvas unfurled
I am become Death, destroyer of worlds

Reign, reign
The ending of yours has begun
The ending of yours has begun
Who'll stand with me in victory?

Chose to trust me better still
You gave your eyes your own freewill
Invulnerable, your bold ravaged
You take this

Brutal beating at my hands
Uncivilized, my victory stands
Ravaged, never as savage
And that's the
Price you pay open the door
Find the monster start the war

Screaming, rapid fire genocide
Screaming, saints in Hell are running wild

Rage
The prelude has begun
Now your epitaph is sung

I am become Death, destroyer of worlds
A menial place in this infinite swirl
Your pitiful flies
Unleashed is the beast, the worst of the least
From sheer depraved evil like some Judas Pries
Having his way, my canvas unfurled
I am become Death, destroyer of worlds

Reign, reign
The ending of yours has begun
The ending of your has begun

Reign, reign
If you look for a monster you'll find one
The ending for all has begun

It's Late
Anthrax

(Scene 1)
You say you love me and I hardly know your name
And if I say I love you in the candlelight
There's no one but myself to blame
But there's something inside that's turning my mind away
Oh how I could love you, if I could let you stay

It's late-and I'm bleeding deep inside
It's late-is it just my stickly pride
Too late-even now the feeling seems to slip away
So late-though I'm crying I can't help you but hear you say
It's late, it's late, it's late but not too late

(Scene 2)
The way you love me is the sweetest love around
But after all this time, the more I'm trying
The more I seem to let you down
Now you tell me you're leaving
And I just can't believe it's true
Oh you know that I can love you
Though you know I can't be true
Oh you made me love you
Don't tell me that we're through

It's late-and it's driving me so mad
It's late-yes I know but don't try to tell me that it's
Too late-save our love you can't turn out the light
So late-I've been wrong but I'll learn to be right
It's late, it's late, it's late but not too late

I've been so long
You've been so long
We've been so long trying to work it out
I ain't got long
You ain't got long
We've gotta know what this life's all about

(Scene 3)
You're staring at me with suspicion in your eye
You say what game are you playing?
What's this that your saying?
I know that I can't reply
If I take you tonight
Is it making my life a lie?
Oh you made me wonder
Did I live my life alright

It's late-but it's time to set me free
It's late-yes I know but there's no way it has to be
Too late-so let the fire take our bodies this night
So late-so let the waters take our guilt in the tide
It's late, it's late, it's late, it's late
It's late, it's late, it's late
It's all too late

Invisible
Anthrax

I'm wiping the slate spotless
I vow this is your final chance
Almost all but little faith has been thrown out the window
I promise to sustain my stance
You've taken everything from the get go
And you've given nothing in return
Your sado-masochism has reached the ninth inning
Still you're puzzled to see I'm concerned

Struggling, to come to terms with
This god-awful life that I live
Stumbling, but still I try
To get out from under your grip

Transparent in critical moments
You drop me when your hands aren't full
You call yourself my closest friend
Then you make yourself invisible

My simmering blood is rising
Primed and ready to explode
Get off your high horse and come to the party
I'll beat you into overload
Only through your limited viewpoint
You think you know how I exist
Easy to turn my back on the system
Hard not to be an atheist

Back in the days when promises were made
Equality for all
You go by the word from the man who gives it
Never expecting a fall

Struggling, to come to terms with
This god-awful life that I live
Stumbling, but still I try
To get out from under your grip

Transparent in critical moments
You drop me when your hands aren't full
You call yourself my closest friend
Then you make yourself invisible
Transparent in cricital moments
You drop me when your hands aren't full
You call yourself my closest friend
Then you make yourself invisible
Make yourself invisible, make yourself invisible
Make yourself invisible, make yourself invisible again

Burn...
I never should've trusted
I never should've trusted
I'm sickened and disgusted
I never should've trusted
What happened to me?

Intro To Reality
Anthrax

We did as we were told.
We just heard you offer the apology for all the monsters of our times.
Is that correct?

Ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha...
