THE NEOS
Hassibah Gets the Martian Brain Squeeze Lyrics

DESTRUCT
You've got a mouth, you've got a heart
Using no reason to reason a reason to start
If you've got a label, or if you've got a name
you'll use it to give the innocent

(chorus)
Blind ignorance breeds blind hatred
And hatred breeds violence
And violence is ignorant
And you're the only cause

You've got a fist, you've got a knife
On a saturday night you've gotta fight
You want the power, you've got the cock
No glory in pain but you're too weak to stop

(chorus)

You've got the power, you've got a bomb
And a world full of innocents to drop it on
Blood, splattered brains, death screams, burning flesh, stink
If you've got a mind then use it and think


THEY'LL DESTROY THEMSELVES
Take the worst from other scenes
I'm tired of seeing that
You want to bring the violence here
You want to get the cops involved
No way it could work but you don't care; can't see that far
A backward step is what you want, and people think as they are told
I hate violence and I won't fight
Cuz you'll destroy yourselves
You don't need any help
Either think drugs & alcohol are great
Or don't appear to be against their use
Never mind that it fucks you up
That's what "punk" is all about
You have this "pride" & "dignity"
Say you'd fight to preserve it if it came to that
Beware; it's easily taken away
A trapdoor beneath your feet
Stupid jerks, you think it's great to ultimately self-destruct
Well I don't care, I hope you do
Just don't fuck up the rest of us

(ALMOST) TYPICAL, OBLIGATORY, ANTI-GOVERNMENT SONG
What gives you the right to tell others what to do?
You sit in judgement, you can't be wrong
Your infallible powers undeniably wrong

(chorus)
You can kill us in your wars
You can jail us with your laws
You can take away our bodies but we'll never fit the mold
Cause you'll never have our minds and you never have our souls

You fill us up with lies, till our brothers we despise
You live by fear, you live by fate
The wars are coming and you can't wait

(chorus)


AMBITIOUS
All's fine now pretty baby but your mind's still full of crap
Still have your fun at the H.O.C.? baby you can beat the rap
But I know when you're pushing a carriage is when you'll finally pay
You'll be parents at sixteen, you'll wish that you were free

(chorus)
You're all ambitious sluts with nothing better to do
Than fulfill your dreams of being adult by opening membrane doors

You'll talk to me like I was your friend
I know, you know, what we think of each other
Your makeup may show what everyone wants to see
But my eyes see through into your ugly mind

(chorus)

The waxo running around your room
And the canker sores waiting to expose themselves
Give me the great pride of satisfaction by being able to say that
I KNOW STUPID FOOLS!


WHERE DID YOU GO WRONG?
When you were young you had it all planned
Swept away by a three peice man
A wedding day all dressed in white
A wedding night, a married life
Soon you thought you were grown up
"Mature enough" to act like everyone else
So you got around but you had doubts
And now you want to know how you can get out

(chorus)
You lie alone with a man by your side
Now your old dreams are gone
You've wasted your body, wasted your life
And still you wonder where you went wrong
Where did you go wrong???...

Everything was going so great
There was a party every night
But all the men you gave yourself to
Ended up hating you
Then you found you couldn't stop
You needed the sercurity that it brought
No one's got respect for you
Cause to yourself you've never been true

(chorus)


JUST LIKE ALL THE REST
Just cause I don't fill myself with drugs to get away
Just cause I know what I am without having to get laid
Just cause I walk away from your useless fights
Just cause I don't hate what I am, hate my parents, hate my life

You've got to say I suck
Punk rocker, ha??
Stupid hypocrite
You're just like all the rest

Just cause I care about the future, just cause I want to change
Just cause I can see beyond a life of hate and pain
Just cause I'm not confined to a world of flesh and bone
Just cause you're too scared to think about it, just cause I hit home


LOOK AROUND IN DESPAIR
You'd think you'd know by now
Your mind is fucked, you don't know how
To think; you've burned your brain cells black
It's gone and it's not coming back
You're destroying your own mind
And you don't care
I hate it; it's a fragile membrane
Between you and the world
Your mind is closed
A proportion of this nation's youth
Are totally obsessed with drug abuse
Their parents are proud cuz they've got a job
But they spend all their money on fucking drugs
They're destroying their own minds
And they don't care
I hate it; I can't take much more
I've got to get off this planet some way
Life is just a vicious circle
And I'm jumping off right now
CONSCRIPTS
Blablabla sez figurehead
We're going to end up fucking dead
Discard the threat of holocaust
Conventional land warfare for us

(chorus)
Forget whatever you're living for
They're killing conscripts, they need thousands more

Choke to death in a chemical war
Don't know what we're fighting for
Goes on & on till nothing left
Peace will only come with death

(chorus)

We'll all die in the end
We'll all die in the end
We're all going to die
So it's goodbye


JUNGLE BEAT (SO IT SEEMS)
Am I your Christ, condemned so willingly to carry the burden your self-hatred
My feeble mouth utters the hallowed words so peaceful to your ears and yet so horrorfying to your game
In your mind - fear, emotion - fear, human - fear you are quick to salt the nearest wound
In my violated virgin soul a resting ground for your rabidness, you see the very image of your passive, self-possession terror
And in it you weave your most tangled web, and germinate your most twisted root
Then it is in your hate-love, good-evil, sex and adult self-fear that you condemn others to hate you
I am your Christ? Condemned so willingly to carry the burden of your self-hatred
It is what you want


OTHER WORLD
Went back; nothing'd changed
Everyone looked and acted the same
I don't care; I never did care

I don't want that other world
Just keep it away from my mind
It's just a dead loss


OPPOSITION TO ALL VIOLENCE, EVEN IF COMMITTED IN SELF-DEFENCE
We are taught that we must fight when provoked
Or face of loss of "dignity"
Because of useless pride 9 in 10 will act in self-defence
But what is solved?

NOTHING

Retaliatory violence perpetuates & can never erase your initial suffering
How long will we stand by & ignore these actions that lead us t the end of war

NO LONGER

You must decide if you will continue to fight
Or side with anti-violence
You are skeptical
Surely I am lying
When will I resort to violence?

NEVER


BOBBY SANDS (DIE FOR THE CAUSE)
Bobby Sands died for the I.R.A.
Riots in the streets, the innocents pay
Are you happy six feet down
With your victims all around?

I hate you Bobby Sands

Fascists rule the world poor
American guns keep them in power
Terrorists trained to fight with a sickle in hand
Puppets in a Russian plan

I hate you superpowers, I hate you hate superkillers

Freedom fighters let's all be
Killing people is the key
There'll be martyrs all across the lands
And we'll all end up like Bobby Sands

I hate you big man


RIPPED OFF
Bought some hash from this guy
He said it'd get me really high
Stashed it down the front of my shirt
When I got home I found it was dirt

(chorus)
I've been ripped, I've been burned
When will I ever learn
Took my cash, gave me trash
Ripped off one more time again

Downtown, I met this guy in passing
He said, "Do you want to buy some acid?"
Cost me ten bucks plus tax
Later I saw it was a piece of wax

(chorus)


SEXUAL REVOLUTION
Hey look at me, I'm sexually "free"
None of your myths frighten me
I don't care about anyone else
I just want to satisfy myself

(chorus)
You think you're sexually revolting
Well you're right
It doesn't matter what I think?
You don't care

Only one thought fills your head, another night, another bed
You've got something to prove but you don't know who to
You don't believe the lies, don't believe the fools, but the proof lies in you
And worst of all you're hypocrites, you talk about them then you do it

(chorus)

You're digging in your hole again, you're on the edge of falling in
You can't climb out cause you're too scared to be yourself, you've never dared
You say I'm living in the past? Well get your head out of your ass
Cause this isn't "social evolution", just another misguided, bloody revolution
