coke deals in the park again

shot right through the heart again

begging me for change again

(donate blood today)

get down on my knees again

offer you my hand again

hoping you’ll forgive again

burn my final bridge again

reading all my books again

writing off another friend

never going back again…

(no going backwards…)

(back where you belong again…)

the mere mention of manson

mocking the mafia…oh…

providing a place when there’s nowhere to go…

show me a sign

sure as the sun done shine

to anyone who doesn’t love me…

soon you’ll see…

soon to be…

soon you’ll see…

soon to be…

riot!

(i don’t wanna any part of inner city life)

riot!

(i’ve got the time to spare, i’m sharpening my knife)

(i’ve got a new complaint…)

riot!

(police protect the weakened fortunes for a few)

(get a whiff of that country air…)

riot!

(once we deplete them they’ll have nothing more to do)

once we release them…

once we defeat them…

(get a whiff of that country air…)

i’ll have many more than you

i’d rather die

this time next weekend, i’ll have many more than you

i’d rather die

many mini mansons

“the mere mention of manson…”

(whispered)

allah (da) scars

here i am i’m all alone

finding a new direction home

“hi eliot rodger here…”

“it is the coming together of all entities…”

“you’re about to meet a real-life serial killer…”

“i want to hear your voice…”

(beginning of “law and order special units”)

(beginning of “house”)

write another script again…

put your thoughts in a lockbox

(hardened city life…)
