1. My Extended Network

Come meet my friends oh they drive me round the bend,
You know that they are Crazy,
There is Katelin and there's Staxs oh at secrets there the max,
And you know that they will never give in,
And your secretes safe until the end,
Freak out!

Their is Jacqueline and there is Ben and there love it never ends,
Except Jacqueline her eyes do stray,
And Ben he is afraid of diseases that have strayed,
From her lips to his very own,
Oh man he is so alone,
Freak out!

2. GNP

Does anybody know of a place a body could get away?
Far from the hypocrisy of here?
Where remnants from and 80's regime don't rain terror everywhere,
Oh and a man can just be a man,

Well turn me like a light switch and draw away,
And watch the colour from my face drain to where I lay,
Then hit me with a dose of British pride,
For in ignorance the self righteous do rise,
They rise yeah,

Now Renough 5 are the choice of the common man,
He does it up everybody everyday man,
He reads the papers and in the papers we all do trust,
But Mr Murdoch you aren’t the bomb you’re a liar I don't trust and I hope that you rust oh yeah man!

Just put me on a ship far away from here,
And call me up when they give the all clear,
They moralise the troops with gross national pride,
Just send me far away so I can hide,
From here from here,
HERE HERE HERE IEET!

3. Usurper usurp

Oh usurper usurp
Such a brain dead jerk,
You think you’re a martyr,
But your persona non-grata,
Oh usurper usurp,
Such an evil jerk,
Army deserter,
You drive me berserker,

Well your living in your own little world,
Where everyone is sad and blue,
And we all live in our own little worlds,
Cos sometimes we get sad too,

Oh usurper usurp,
Such an brain dead smirk,
You think you are laughing,
But your not smiling now,

Well your living in your own little world,
Where everyone is sad and blue,
And we all live in our own little worlds,
Cos sometimes we get sad too,

Well let me break it down in the un cool style,
The only style that is worth your while,
I said I'm the ghost the ghost with most,
Don't mess with me or you'll get toasted,
Now let me you something that I don't mind,
If you bury me in the ground and you do it now,
Now let me tell you something that I don't mind,
Now I don't mind at all!

Cos there is NO GHOST like the ghost with the most,
No there is NO GHOST like the ghost with the most,
THERE IS NO GHOST!

4. The curse of the old time Olympics

The curse of the old time Olympics is hitting town,
The girls will become like zombies and the boys like hounds,
With a bark and a little shuffle I close my eyes and turn around,
I peek through my hand just slightly but never make a sound,

Oh he is the one who is responsible for this mess,
That we're in and there's a lesson to be learnt and how,
To be good little boys and seek out bad little girls,
And pay attention to the ones in the back row now,

The sirens sound out for war when the doors is closed,
The grils in there million dollar suites become engrossed,
To the idea of being number 1 king of the heard,
But the boys with there backs to the fighting find it all absurd,

Well go home little boy your time it is not now,
We'll find a way to show them oh and how,
Just close your eyes and then shuffle off a zombie way,
And try and try again another day,

We will try again,
We will try again,
We will try again,
We will try again.

5. Glitter Death

Open your eyes,
Wide awake its morning now,
I see the sun out of the window,
And its shinning,

Glitter gliter gliter glitter gliter gliter.

6. Mountain Song

(instrumental)

7. Leather Glad Free Marketeers

Wait 'til your father gets back home,
He'll elasticate the day,
With his tales of picket fences,
And lost at sea green beres,

Out in my field I'm the captain (he's the captain),
The captain of Estelle (oh Estelle),

Oh hold me close my dear lady,
Tell me how you'll let me go,
I'm at war with the world dear,
And the world she is a joke (HA HA HA HA HA HA!)

Fishing sticks in the lakes with,
God old boys to pass the time (I'll pass the time I'll pass the time)

SHA LA SHA LA SHA LA SHA LA,
Oh Estelle,

Well black market mathmatiers and scoundrels stay pay in arrears,
And lady I can't care for you and that stupid panoramic view,
I just want to be held in your arms again,
I just want to be felt loved again,
I just need to feel again (HA HA HA HA HA HA!)

SHA LA SHA LA SHA LA SHA LA OH!

8. Nessies Daughter

He was the captain of an ocean liner lonely as can be,
When by chance he stared into the ocean and a monster he did see,
He would have been scared away but their eyes did meet,
They fell in love for ever after and he got down on his knee,

They sailed from old Hong Kong to Scotland so bonnie,
Where Nessies daughter took him to see the folks she loved so dearly,
She said Daddy dear this is the man I love and he wants to marry me,
But Nessie said in a booming voice what follows so pay heed,

He doesn't have a degree in law nor history,
He's just an ocean captain lonely as can be,
But the captain got down on his knee and said to the beast,
Look into my eyes you'll see my heart and I love her at least nessies he say…..

Yes

So they became man and beast for the rest of their years happy as can be,
The old captain of the sea with his bride the daughter of nessie.

9. Too Cool For School

Ho down he's the king of California bringing with him jalopenos,
Give them to the servants it will brighten their day,
And we eat anything that is tasty we give it to maid yeah,
Who puts in an oven to roast for a year,
And this one time I saw the ceiling it was falling down,
So I did what was necessary and I ran away,
To deepest darkest reaches of the Philippians,
It is so darn cold there and hot when it snows,

And I'll write you a postcard when the work is finished,
Don't pay the deposit to the head engineer no,
He's a bounder and a cad and he stole your ear rings,
I'll buy you some more when the world is coming back to me,
But at the moment I'm afraid its out of reach,

Break times are only permitted when the work has been completed,
To a satisfactory level they can starve until then,
And you know that heads will roll if I don't get my solient green it is so tasty,
Its just a shame that it is people you darn dirty ape,
And I say Charlie how's it going for you?
The coastal watch it patrols the beaches for the head of liberty,
But they won’t find what they are looking for its not really there boy,
No it is not the future A.D,

And I'll fight the perversions and the slow time justice,
And I'll keep my revolver as a souvenir yup,
And I'll try not to laugh when it blasts my pocket,
And a whole in my jeans so the world can see,
What I keep in there wouldn't you like to know but right now I must show off,
Check it,

And I'll keep on rehearsing on a Sunday morning,
And I'll fight a war with a cloak and dagger,
And I'll read quotes from the almanac of,
Death and destruction and doom and I think,
I'm just a little too crude for you but hey don’t you like it? Huh?

10. A Set of Teeth

(Instrumental)

11. Who will love Jalopy Jack?

Who will love Jalopy Jack,
When his knees are broke and his head is cracked into a thousand different pieces,
And who will love Jalopy Jill,
When they find out she's not on the pill and having your baby yeah,

And who will love Salacious Sal,
When then find out she used to be Bill of the barnacle variety,
And who will love Tommy LeMac,
When they find out he used to have a rack that was size g in proportion,

And it seems to me gods creatures we cannot just be,
We have to tamper and teach until infinity,
And it seems to me god creatures we cannot just be,
We cannot live in peace and non hostility,

And who will love Jalopy Bill,
When he is all old and over the hill,
And who will love anyone else,
When they say that love is just a chemical,
Its just a chemical,
Its just a chemical,
Its just a chemical.

12. Come in from the Rain

Oh let me come in from the rain,
Oh let me come in from the rain,

Poor Rachel she is lost again,
Poor Rachel in the sea of transmission,

But what you gonna do?
When your hands are tied with glue,

Oh let me come in from the rain,
Oh let me come in from the rain,
Oh let me come in from the rain,
Oh let me come in from the rain,

Poor Rachel lost out at sea,
Poor Rachel won’t you come back home to me,

But what you gonna do?
When your hands are tied with glue,

Oh man,
Oh poor girl,
Can't you see?
Can't you be?
Won't you let me come home?
Won't you let me come home?
Won't you let me come home?
Won't you let me come home?
Won't you let me come home?
Won't you let me come home?

Oh let me come in from the rain,
Oh let me come in from the rain,
Oh let me come in from the rain,
Oh let me come in from the rain,

13. Hail King Saint Oppression

Well the king decreed let there be light,
And sure as hell he'll take it back,
He's the man the man with a plan,
Hail king saint oppression,
The courtiers are his puppets man,
He's the one that understands,
What right for him and his country,
Blood and murder and dysfunction,

Stabbing his allies in the back,
Murdering with a stone cold smile,

Well hip is hip as hip can be,
So shout it out let people see,
But people they don't want to hear,
The ballad of a murderer,
But the hip they just don't understand,
What it is to be a man,
Or how it is to bring him down,
Right or wrong there is no reason,
There is evil everywhere,
But there resolutions are absurd,
So just close your eyes and move on forward,

Well there is no right unless there's wrong,
But do you have a real solution,
Or are you just the same as him,
Power hungry little murders,
But he's no saint please understand,
He's a stone cold villain with a plan,
Just got to find the real solution,
De-frone the king saint oppression.

14. The wife and kids

I want the wife and kids to let it be known,
That there's nothing else bothering me,
Except for the wind the rain and the snow,
The fear and years of being unknown,
To the world out there it is so big,
But it doesn't want to know me,

So oh that’s no cue,
To jump off the bridge and leave my life to you,
I'll go on,
And I'll keep on singing my own little song,
Yeah life is a whore,
With all kinds of diseases and some are probably yours,
But that’s o.k,
Cos I will never look back no I will never look back again,

It seems that can just be insane,
But the truth is it is probably you,
So don’t close the pick up the phone,
Don't cut off the world cos being all alone,
Isn't all that its cracked up to be,
And I wouldn't do it if I was you,

So oh don't assume,
To jump off the bridge and leave your life this noon,
Its o.k move straight through,
And the sun will come up soon,
Yeah life's a whore,
Who's been fucked a million times and she's heard it all before,
Just don't lose yourself,
Yourself,
Trust in me and I'll trust in you,
I'll trust in you,
I'll trust in you,
I'll trust in you.
