AGRESSION
Don't Be Mistaken Lyrics

IT CAN HAPPEN
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles


Wake up in the morning and find yourself
Staring at the wall
When that nagging urge to take a piss
Has you stumbling thru the hall

That's what you were doing
When that official asshole
Pushed the button
It happened so quick
It happened all of a sudden

Whatcha gonna do now you're a mutant
Whatcha gonna do now that you've changed

It can happen after the meltdown
It can happen now that you've changed
It can happen now you're a mutant
Your world is disfigured
And your life is rearranged

Then you open your eyes again
But you can't see through
Thick clouds of radiation and debris
That's on you
So yo uwalk through the ruins
In a daze for daze
Can't remember how it started
It's all such a haze

Finally the clouds are lifting
And are taken away with the wind
And through your skatered throughts
Your brain is sifting
It can happen


BRAIN BONDAGE
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles


Do you have brain bondage
Spend all your time in front of the T.V. set
Don't you know they're trying to show you just how to live
Better not listen, and don't let them win

Brain bondage, brain bondage
They try to shape the way America lives
Brain bondage, brain bondage
Better not listen and don't let them win

You look so cool in your Sassoon jeans
Going to the beach, you gotta wear your O.P's
Wear a leather jacket if you wanna look mean
Why not shine it all, it's just a scene

NON PERSON
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles


Your'e a real estate agent
Yes, a real big man
Selling lots and houses
Whenever, wherever you can
Slumlord tactics are al you know
The word is out, you gotta go

Non person, non peson, non person, you've gotta go

You're the plague of our home
Yeah you're just like a locust
Now it's time for your three day notice


BODY COUNT
Words & Music by Brandon Cruz
Arranged by Agression


You who are fighting the endless war
Told by generals to kill some more
Wake up in the morning, march over the hill
Whatever's inyour way, you've got orders to kill

Got to get that body count
Remember kids and chickens count
Get that body count

The platoon got an order to attack a village
After you're through, you can loot and pillage
Rape all the women, murder the men
Fuck all the sheep, butcher the hens

Napalmed a village, hiking into sea
If anyone survived that clamity
Mutilated bodies, blown in two
Count both halves and be glad it's not you


MONEY MACHINE
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Gene "The Euge" Denon
Arranged by Mark Hickey & Henry Knowles


It's all part of the money machine, the money machine
It's all part of the capitalist scheme, the money machine
Makes you forget you're a human being
And I call it the money machine

So you can . . .
Go to school, study real hard, get your college degree
It's the American Dream, set up for you and me
To keep you from being free
Work from 9 to 5 sometimes overtime, just to pay your bills
The American Dream set up for you and me
By the jerks on Capitol Hill

Then one day, when you're sixty-five
Ain't got no reason to stay alive
Just sit at home waiting for your check
Personally I'd rather be hanging by the neck

So you can . . .
Go to school, study real hard, get your college degree
It's the American Dream, set up for you and me
To keep you from being free
Work from 9 to 5 sometimes overtime, just to pay your bills
The American Dream set up for you and me
By the jerks on Capitol Hill


NO MERCY
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles


There's no place that you can go
Run as fast as you want, it will be too slow
I'm going out of my head, it's driving me insane
I can have no peace until I see you in pain

You slipped out the back when things got hot
You took everything and left me to rot
But your plan didn't work, it didn't come close
When I get through with you, you're gonna look gross

I'll show you no mercy when I catch up to you
No mercy when I torture you
No mercy, there's no place to run
You'll wish you were dead before I'm done

You'll be bleeding profusely
And we don't use tha term loosely
Cuz . . .

You slipped out the back when things got hot
You took everything and left me to rot
But your plan didn't work, it didn't come close
When I get through with you, you're gonna look gross


DON'T BE MISTAKEN
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles & Bob Clark


Don't call on help from the other side
Things might seem tough, but let it ride
Even if the light seems to hurt your eyes
Don't you call on the forces of the night

Don't be mistaken, there are riches, powers, and pleasures there
But don't be mistaken
Don't you get got up in
Don't you mess with the demons lair

You think you know power
Well you haven't seen shit
Deal with the demons
No tellin' what you'll get

Better let it ride
Don't run and hide
Behind the pentical
Black magic
It'll be your death
INTENSE ENERGY
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles


Have you ever seen a skate boarder
Surfin' in a pool
Flying over the coping
With a skateboard as his tool
Well you've got no time for me
You think it's cuz you're too cool
Then I'll see you later
I'm going surfin' in the pool

It's a way to release, intense energy
It's a way to release, it's a way to release
We just go in there and go crazyyy!

It's kinda like an addiction
Hard core craving attention
Do you know of my position
I need to flow on the transition

You know we could be out busting heads
But we get rowdy in the pools instead
Laybacks, inverts, bio blacksides
Roll ins, roll outs, gnarly slides, we're grindin' it


S.A.T.C
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles


Slamming at the club just the other night
It was so cool, even got in a fight
It was all right cuz the bros were there
Mellow on the outside so nobody cared

Then came something to fuck up our scene
Assholes who throw bottles, to prove that they're mean
Kicking holes in the wall don't mean that you're cool
When this place is closed, you'll know you're the fool

Police have the power to stop our gigs
Can't you see the thrashers encourage the pigs?
Throw 'em in the pit, if they think they're tough
I'm telling you this for the future of us


LOCALS ONLY
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Gene "The Euge" Denon
Arranged by Mark Hickey & Henry Knowles


Walk down to the beach and what do I see
Non local cars blocking up our streets
Don't they know the beach is for locals only
Don't they know they can't surf on our beach

This beach is for locals only
Don't they know thacn't surf on our beach
This beach is for locals only
Take your silly ass and get it off of our streets
Gonna have to kcik you out, gonna have to teach you why
This beach is for locals only

Go into the local store and what do I see
Out of town goons in front of me
Have no idea what they're doing around here
I think I'll hit 'em with this empty bottle of beer

Going into my waters and what do I see
Out of town faggots in front of my
All I want to know is what they're doing on my waves
Gonna have to show 'em how we behave


INSOMNIA
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles


Ever find yourself awake
In the middle of the night
You've got insomnia
Grab a glass of water
Or a cigarette for your insomnia
But I know something that's so much better yet

Just grab the bong and numb your brain with pot
Watch Cal Worthington and his dog Spot
Insomnia, yeah it's so boring
Nothing to do at three o'clock in the morning

You can get dressed, go out for a walk
For your insomnia
But that's just asking for hassles
From your neighborhood cops
You've got insomnia


SECRET SEX
Words by Mark Hickey
Music by Henry Knowles


Secret sex is the first sex you ever had
Secret sex is the first to make you glad
Sneak out the window and walk down the street
And there waiting for you is your secret treat
Ah secret sex

Tiem goes by, you're married, and you're living with your wife
You tell her that you gotta go out tonight
You say that you're going to the bar
And around the corner there's your girfriend in her car
Waiting for you cuz you got secret sex for her

Secret sex is so fun, but sometimes it's not
And you know what I'm talkking about
The time when you got caught
You felt like an asshole, you really felt shot
You wonder was it worth it, you think that it was not
But I bet when you get a chance you'll go out and do it again
Secret sex is the best
Forget the rest, take secret sex


STOP THE CLOCK
Words & Music by Henry Knowles

Get out of the house, take a vacation
Can't find a job, total frustration
GOt no money, totally broke
Life is boring, there's no more hope

Don't tell me how I should live
You always take and never give
I'm myself that's what I wanna be
I wanna be me, fuck society

Stop the clock, stop the action
Get out if you don't like my reaction
I've tried your trips they're not for me
They make me sick, make me wanna heave

And I'm blowing chunks all over the place
Some might hit you in the face
But I'm myself that's what I wanna be
I wanna be me, fuck society
