Almost every day
I see the same face
On broken picture tube
It fits the attitude
If you could see yourself
You put you on a shelf
Your verbal masturbate
Promise to nauseate
Today I'll play the part of non-parent
Not make a hundred rules
For you to know about yoursef
Not lie and make you believe
What's evil is making love
and making friends
and meeting God you're own way
The right way
[Chorus]
To see
To bleed
Cannot be taught
In turn
You're making us
Fucking hostile
We stand alone
The truth in right and wrong
The boundaries of the law
You seem to miss the point
Arresting for a joint?
You seem to wonder why
Hundreds of people die
You're writing tickets man
My mom got jumped -- they ran!
Now I'll play a public servant
To serve and protect
By the law and the state
I'd bust the punks
That rape steal and murder
And leave you be
If you crossed me
I'd shake your hand like a man
Not a god
[Chorus]
Come meet your maker, boy
Some things you can't enjoy
Because of heaven/hell
A fucking wives' tale
They put it in your head
Then put you in your bed
He's watching say your prayers
Cause God is everywhere
Now I'll play a man learning priesthood
Who's about to take the ultimate test in life
I'd question things because I am human
And call NO ONE my father who's no closer that a stranger
I won't listen
[Chorus]
I see the same face
On broken picture tube
It fits the attitude
If you could see yourself
You put you on a shelf
Your verbal masturbate
Promise to nauseate
Today I'll play the part of non-parent
Not make a hundred rules
For you to know about yoursef
Not lie and make you believe
What's evil is making love
and making friends
and meeting God you're own way
The right way
[Chorus]
To see
To bleed
Cannot be taught
In turn
You're making us
Fucking hostile
We stand alone
The truth in right and wrong
The boundaries of the law
You seem to miss the point
Arresting for a joint?
You seem to wonder why
Hundreds of people die
You're writing tickets man
My mom got jumped -- they ran!
Now I'll play a public servant
To serve and protect
By the law and the state
I'd bust the punks
That rape steal and murder
And leave you be
If you crossed me
I'd shake your hand like a man
Not a god
[Chorus]
Come meet your maker, boy
Some things you can't enjoy

A fucking wives' tale

Then put you in your bed
He's watching say your prayers
Cause God is everywhere

And call NO ONE my father who's no closer that a stranger

Second part is about police officers who have a misplaced sense of importance.
Third part is about worshipping a God that never talks to you.
Overall it is about thinking with your own ideas rather than accepting the ideas that society wants to plant in your head.
Every last one of you motherfuckers has made me the hostile prick I am.
BRILLIANT!
BRILLIANT!
Panmotherfuckintera at its best. A true in-your-face challenge to authority. As I like to say: "Question authority, but raise your hand first". This is an anthem for all those (such as myself) who dispise authority. I scheme I'm gonna move to the Netherlands or some shit. Everything's legal there. Phil, Rex, Dime and Vinnie, thanks for great music. RIP Dimebag
parents being overly restrictive and not letting their kids do anythign for themselves rather than letting them find themselves their own way. Cops being lazy, ignoring the real shit that goes on and dealing with pot heads because pot heads won't put up a fight, then turning around and telling the media that it's not their fualt that three girls got raped in the last 24 hours. And religion for generally selling the entire world huge packs of lies, keeping the weak upder their thumbs, pushing down basic human nature, telling you it's a sin to be yourself etc.
it all boils down to the fact that everyone with a brain is just getting pissed off with it all now.
