Lyrics

I was born screaming astride the grave To a whiplash chemical bombing slave Hanging off a millstone nailed To the teeth of Jesus that marked me fail The clock is crawling up to noon Suck it all up and Americanize And teach your God to weaponize I cut my bolts with the blowtorch blues Turn my monkey wrench and screw I blitz and purge my vicious tongue Cut my teeth and aim this gun The bell is tolling with the proof Playing three chords and the truth Hurt seeks out the holy temple Fury meets the fundamental Feel the faith is wearing thin On barren bones belief begins Suck it all up and Americanize And teach your God to weaponize Burn your beliefs at the witching hour Turn off reason and up the power Now the rats rule the night With a baseball bat and pure delight The bell is tolling with the proof Playing three chords and the truth I'm no good, I'm not right I burn and break in the red hot night I'm no good, I'm not right I burn and break in the red hot night The supernova technique trap Of every pain upon the map The rod of rage writes the scar Of the overdose in the hate bazaar The bell is tolling with the proof Playing three chords and the truth Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah Suck it all up and Americanize Teach your God to weaponize Suck it all up and Americanize Teach your God to weaponize I'm no good, I'm not right I burn and break in the red hot night I'm no good, I'm not right I burn and break in the red hot night Death put your lips on mine My liquor-drinking valentine Death put your lips on mine My liquor-drinking valentine Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah I cut my bolts with the blowtorch blues I turn my monkey wrench and screw I blitz and purge my vicious tongue I cut my teeth when I aim this gun The bell is tolling with the proof Playing three chords and the truth The bell is tolling with the proof Playing three chords and the truth The bell is tolling with the proof Playing three chords and the truth
