Extreme Album

Hey Kid, wanna have some fun?
Choose a side and here's your gun

Brought up knowing right from wrong,
squash the meek, inherit the strong

Just try and cross the line,
Don't even bother to waste my time

What's that look in your eyes?
It's time I cut you down to size

This world ain't big enough for two,
And I've got my sights on you

WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE,
I'M A WARHEAD, YOU'RE A WARHEAD
A WARHEAD JUST LIKE ME?
HE'S A WARHEAD, SHE'S A WARHEAD
WATCH 'EM SCREAM 'N YELL
WOULD YOU LIKE TO BE, A WARHEAD TOO
STRAIGHT TO HELL

Ramboy, it's us and them
Just like your Daddy in Vietnam
Monkey see, Monkey do,
Your boy's grown up
Just like you

This world ain't
Big enough for two
and I've got my
eye on you

[CHORUS]

I've seen Black heads,
White heads,
Red heads,
Dead heads,
Big heads,
Shit heads,
but, there's no heads
Like WARHEADS!

Let's talk of peace,
Sounds so cliche
A novelty, catch phrase of the day
Middle, index,
Sign of the time
Just as complex,
As water to...

Someone said give peace a chance
And, that's all that we're saying
While we're sitting on the fence
Pretending,
Our hearts are in the right place
But, your face
Shows a trace of,

Hypocrisy,
Don't tread on me,
Now you can see

MAKE LOVE NOT WAR, SOUNDS SO ABSURD, TO ME
OR ELSE OUR WORLD, WILL TRULY, REST IN PEACE

Let's not pretend,
to justify
Rather amend,
Where treasures lie
Straight through the heart,
Peace can be found
That's where you start,
Not all around

Someone said give peace a chance
And, that's all that we're saying
While we're sitting on the fence
Pretending,
Our hearts are in the right place
But, your face
Shows a trace of,

Hypocrisy,
Don't tread on me, boy
Now you can see

Wars 'n rumors
Of wars, no one knows what for
Toys and soldiers
Deployed, on some foreign shore
Lords and rulers
Destroy, diplomatic rapport

Communists, dictatorships
Democracies, hypocrisies
Ask not what your country can do?
To a one world governmental zoo

POLITICAL, POLITICAL
POLITICALAMITY
IT'S AN-AR-CHY
POLITICAL, POLITICAL
POLITICALAMITY

Rich 'n poor
Salute your country's colors
Less is more
Pride 'n power
Decorated upon collars

Donkeys, bears 'n elephants
All paper-trained on parliament
Ask not what your country can do?
To a one world governmental zoo

I had a dream,
Last night I was blind
And I couldn't see
Color of any kind

Picture the world, minus a rainbow
When day becomes night, then where will the sun go
Dancing alone, just me and my shadow
Color me blind, so I can see no evil

WHY DO WE DREAM,
IN BLACK AND WHITE?
COLOR ME BLIND
WHY DO WE DREAM
IN BLACK AND WHITE?
COLOR ME BLIND

I had a dream,
I was looking, over the mountain
But I've, I've yet to see the,
The so-called promised land
Picture the world,
Without any color
You couldn't tell,
One face from the other
I don't understand
Why we fight with our brother
Color me blind
Just to love one another

Color me, color you,
COLOR ME BLIND

"You read the papers today?"

I read the news today oh boy,
About a tragic comedy
Newspaper hinted suicide,
The letterhead read Dear Johnny
A tainted truth was all it said,
Sleep tight now that you've made your bed
An arrow that once pierced your heart
Points to the apple on your head

Three sides to every story
Yours, mine
And, Monday morning's

CUPID'S DEAD, HEADLINES READ,
CUPID'S DEAD
CUPID'S DEAD, HEADLINES READ,
CUPID'S DEAD

Oh, Romeo, Oh, Romeo
If you read between the headlines,
You wouldn't be the last to know
No mystery yet to unfold,
A paperboy left in the cold
A love was said to never die,
Withered away and just got old

"Our top story tonight,
is a crime of passion
The victim, an unidentified man,
is found in bed, wearing only a diaper,
holding a bow an arrow in one hand,
and clutching a letter in the other.
The letter simply read ...
CUPID'S DEAD."

Extra, extra, extra,
read all about it

CUPID'S DEAD,

Cupid is dead, deceased,
I got peace of mind
Still it's hard to forget,
what it leaves behind
A lot of love lost,
your feelings are wasted,
tasted the sweetness,
but now you're faced with,
the thought, of being alone
Nor more companionship,
you can handle it,
just abandon it,
leave it behind,
and look for the brighter day
Give it some time,
cause it won't come right away
You gotta be standing strong,
hold on to your dignity
Don't sit around,
saying look what ya did to me
It's time to move on,
you gotta continue
to look for a love,
of a life that's within you
Cupid is dead now,
it's time to rely on,
yourself to cope
You got no shoulder to cry on
DEAD

PEACEMAKER DIE,
Mr. Righteous One
You say you have this plan?
If we care to understand

PEACEMAKER DIE,
Mr. Nice Guy
You dare to speak the truth?
I'll twist and turn it into lies

Blessed are the warmongers,
Blessed are the warmongers
For they shall be called,
Man-made Gods

PEACEMAKER DIE,
PEACEMAKER DIE,
PEACEMAKER DIE,
I DON'T KNOW WHY?
PEACEMAKER DIE,
PEACEMAKER DIE,
PEACEMAKER DIE,
PEACEMAKER DIE,
I DON'T KNOW WHY?

PEACEMAKER DIE,
Mr. Goody Two
Do you really thing the world
Can be Black, White, and Jew?

PEACEMAKER DIE,
Mr. Music Man
Don't turn your back on me?
Cause I'm the one with the gun

Blessed are the warmongers,
Blessed are the warmongers,
For they shall be called,
Sons of God

I have a dream this afternoon,
That the brotherhood of man,
Will become a reality
In this day, with this faith,
I will go out and,
Carve the tunnel of hope,
Through the mountain of despair
With this faith,
I will go out with you and,
Transform dark yesterdays
Into bright tomorrows
With this faith,
We will be able to achieve
This new day
When all of God's children,
Black men and white men,
Jews and gentiles,
Protestants and Catholics
Will be able to join hands
And sing with the negroes,
In the spiritual of old
Free at last, free at last,
Thank God almighty,
We're free at last.

Speech - Martin Luther King - Jr.

One day
we'll find the time
to spend, together
until then, My Love

IF I HAD ONE WISH
IT WOULDN'T BE HARD TO CHOOSE
SEVEN SUNDAYS IN A ROW
CAUSE THAT'S THE DAY
THAT I SPEND WITH YOU

Someday soon,
you and I
will hold each other
once again, My Love

IF I HAD ONE WISH
IT WOULDN'T BE HARD TO CHOOSE
SEVEN SUNDAYS IN A ROW
SEVEN SUNDAYS IN A ROW
SEVEN SUNDAYS IN A ROW
CAUSE THAT'S THE DAY
THAT I SPEND WITH YOU

If I had one wish
It wouldn't be hard to choose

Flowers, I sent,
were found dead on their arrival
The words, I said,
inserted foot in my mouthful
So when, we dance,
My lead it ain't so graceful
(Isn't so, not ain't so)

I'M A HAPLESS ROMANTIC
ST-T-TUTTERING P-POET
JUST CALL ME A TRAGIC COMIC
CAUSE I'M, IN, IN LOVE WITH YOU

And when, we dine,
I forget to push in your seat
I wear, the wine,
spilling hearts all over my sleeve
A stitch, in time,
proposing down on my knees
(Splitting between the seams)

ST-T-TUTTERING P-POET
JUST CALL ME A TRAGIC COMIC
CAUSE I'M, IN, IN LOVE WITH YOU

Nobody, can know the,
trouble I've, seen
Nobody, can know the,
trouble I, get into,
when I'm with you

Oh Daddy please,
take me with you
where you going
Oh Daddy please,
come find the time,
come watch us growing
Oh Daddy please,
don't leave there's so
much that we want to
know before you go

I'm in need of someone
to tie my shoe,
or take hold of my hand
when I become afraid
And whose footsteps
will I follow into,
Daddy please,
don't run away

OUR FATHER
WELL LET ME TELL YOU 'BOUT
OUR FATHER
FAR FARTHER AWAY...

Oh Daddy please,
I pray every night
the doors will open
Oh Daddy please,
this house is just
a broken home,
left all alone

All the world's
a masquerade
made up of fools
and philosophers
Were it to rain
on our charade,
all washes away,
except for our true colors

If any people bothered
looking for truth, please,
STOP THE WORLD
from spinning 'round
instead we choose to follow
footsteps of fools, please
STOP THE WORLD
from spinning 'round
If nothing's new under the sun
for me and you
Won't somebody please...

STOP THE WORLD
I WANNA GET OFF
STOP THE WORLD
STOP THE WORLD
WHERE THERE IS LOVE

If we forget
yesterday,
We're bound to repeat it
tomorrow
It's not too late
to start today,
Better off safe,
than sorry

Do unto those as you would
do to yourselves, please,
STOP THE WORLD
from spinning 'round
We need more feet to walk
in one another's shoes, please

STOP THE WORLD
from spinning 'round
There's nothing new
under the sun
for me and you,
Won't somebody please...

Ah, look at all
the lonely people,
losing faith,
in a world
full of despair,
no one who cares,
wondering where
GOD disappeared

I, see the pain
in everybody's faces
asking why,
the GOD up in the sky,
didn't say goodbye,
please tell me,
GOD didn't die

PLEASE TELL ME
GOD ISN'T DEAD
PLEASE TELL ME
GOD ISN'T DEAD
GOD ISN'T
I WANT TO KNOW
IF HE'S
TELL ME
GOD ISN'T
PLEASE TELL ME
GOD ISN'T DEAD
I WANT TO KNOW

Now's not the time to say goodbye
And I'm not the kind to question why
Well I don't feel very well, and it's getting cold as hell
It won't be the same, can't you tell?

Don't leave me alone
Don't leave me on my own
I'm so afraid
Why can't you stay?
Just don't leave me alone
How long will my song be wrong?

Doing the things I should have known
Only to reap what I have sown
Jesus, please

Don't leave me alone
Don't leave me on my own
I'm on my knees
Forgive me please
Just don't leave me alone

[Keyboard solo]

Don't leave me alone
Don't leave me on my own
I'm so afraid
Why can't you stay?
Just don't leave, don't leave... me alone
How long will my song... be... wrong?

Dawn wakes the silence,
of a fainted lullaby
Day breaks the eyelid,
from a song sung in my eye

Night rests in peace,
as the sun mourns the sky
All's accounted for sheep,
over a horizon's I

RISE, RISE 'N SHINE
A NEW DAY IS COMING
RISE, RISE IN TIME
FOR EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN

And when you see,
a south wind blow
Forecasting, you will know,
a hot day, will be on the way
(Foolish one)
You analyze,
I ask you why,
you can't analyze the signs,
of the present time

I had a dream,
not unlike the one from old
Of a man king,
whose head was made of gold
Stand castles of sand
weather the sundials rise 'n fall
Chasing wind through your hands,
'til water runs dry the well

DREAM, DANIEL, DREAM
FOR WHAT'S YET TO COME
SEE, DANIEL, SEE
FOR EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN

And in the West,
a cloud appears
For shadows of
a coming shower near,
Oh, so near
(Hypocrites)
You analyze,
the earth and the sky
I ask you why,
you can't analyze the signs,
of the present time

Vanity,
Yes, all is vanity
Vanity,
Yes, all's futility

For one that dies,
another's born
Where laughter's heard,
comforters mourn
There's a time for
everything

A song for love,
even abhor
An olive branch,
or winter's war
There's a time for
EVERYTHING, UNDER THE SUN

I'm tired of being me,
and I don't like what I see,
I'm not who I appear to be
So I start off every day,
down on my knees I will pray,
for a change in any way
But as the day goes by,
I live through another lie,
if it's any wonder why

AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE
WILL I ALWAYS STAY THE SAME
IF I SAY ONE THING,
THEN I DO THE OTHER
IT'S THE SAME OLD SONG,
THAT GOES ON FOREVER
AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE
I'M THE ONLY ONE TO BLAME
WHEN I THINK I'M RIGHT,
I WIND UP WRONG
IT'S A FUTILE FIGHT,

Please tell me if it's true,
am I too old to start anew,
cause that's what I want to do
But time and time again,
when I think I can,
I fall short in the end
So why do I even try,
Will it matter when I die,
Can anyone hear my cry?

AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE
TAKE IT DAY BY DAY
MY WILL IS WEAK
AND MY FLESH TOO STRONG
THIS PEACE I SEEK
TILL THY KINGDOM COMES

Tell me, Jesus,
are you angry?
One more sheep has,
just gone astray
A hardening of hearts,
turning to stone
Wandering off,
so far from home
So many children,
losing time
Walk in darkness,
looking for a sign
Chasing their rainbows,
the future looks so bright
Slowly we're losing,
Sight of the light

WHO CARES?
WHO CARES?
WHO CARES?
TELL ME WHO CARES?

All alone,
out in the cold
Can't look back,
am I growing old
I chose a path,
is this my fate
Am I finding out,
the truth too late

[CHORUS]

Here I am,
a naked man
Nothing to hide
with empty hands
Remember me,
I am the one
Who lost his way,
your Prodigal Son

WHO CARES?
WHO CARES?
WHO CARES?
TELL ME WHO CARES?
WHO CARES?

AM I EVER GONNA CHANGE
WILL I ALWAYS STAY THE SAME
SAY ONE THING
THEN I DO THE OTHER
SAME OLD SONG
GOES ON FOREVER
RISE, RISE 'N SHINE
A NEW DAY IS COMING
YES IT IS!
