It's three in the afternoon and you've got some time you can kill before the party tonight so you decide to just chill your couch cushions spend some quality time with your ass while you turn on your tv, sit back, smoke and relax to the max - your body temperature falls maximum - heart rate slows to a crawl maximum overchill max - your blood begins to freeze maximum - brings you to your knees maximum overchill get up, lets leave this place your party potential has gone to waste the wimpiness shown here should be a crime when you chill this hard it just wastes my time your friends are worried haven't seen you for days while you've been couch-slouched smoked out in a videogame haze the screen keeps on flashing "game over" you're through but its not just the game its referring to you what happened, you see, is inactivity caused your very particle atoms to freeze you're a block of ice, devoid of all life frozen to your couch dead by your own design

He stepped into the woods amongst the plants and the trees and a chill that could make even an eskimo freeze he lowered his eyes as he lifted his axe and prepared himself to kick deciduous ass flapjacks by the stack he begins his attack family killed by trees so now he's fighting back a madman, he's pissed douglas fir's on his list throws away his axe punch it down with his fists the massacre has begun they're stationary cannot run unlimited chainsaw unlimited chainsaw bodies fall onto the grass their numbers are decreasing fast unlimited chainsaw unlimited chainsaw sap covers his flannel shirt while trees he slaughtered lose their lives in the dirt splinters flying through the air he maims his victims showing no remorse or care death is everywhere self-sacrificing sapling rubs branches together to make heat a tiny spark falls to the ground igniting at his feet the fire spread so far and fast there just was no time to react flames danced in the madman's eyes he smiled as he burned alive

I'm drunk - so what, watch me light this shit ablaze burning down half of this town I'm in an alcoholic haze total and complete destruction is my one desire so let's get fucking shit-faced and start some fucking fires cause arson and booze go hand in hand I bet if i drank gas i could get fucked up pretty fast burning down all of your shit my B.A.C.'s so high man check this out its pretty cool I'm using my blood as incendiary fuel I know I need that stuff to live and yeah, I'm feeling sicker but without it in my veins there's so much more room for the liquor Arson and booze go hand in hand when your burns are third-degree it helps if you're too drunk to see burning down shit across the land aaaaahhhhhh too drunk to know you're on fire is that what that heat was? goddamn I must be pretty buzzed burning down all your shit when police arrived the fire had consumed four city blocks and I was passed out in a drunken stupor undressed down to my socks I awakened in a holding cell; police were all around swiped a lighter from a guard and burned the station to the fucking ground arson party squad unite!

Let's me just say one thing if I can about the mess and all the damage man hadn't anticipated the night ending this way we put on a killer show; the awesome party squad was go just nevermind the fact you'll be picking beercans for the next 3 days kids going crazy, hanging from the ceiling with domes on roam they're just destroying everything then it was over, fast as it had begun if nothing else man just admit you had fun glass smashed out thin beer coating on everything we thrashed this house now the party is through there's kids passed out did our duty successfully we partied down yeah it's just what we do and might I add that the blame for what went down don't fall solely on us you packed your own house with people; we just made em all go nuts I'll remind you of our motto, its been previously stated not to be held responsible for acts while intoxicated so if you bring the beer we'll bring the motherfucking ruckus cross exam ain't nothing to fuck with straight from the mother land where anheuser busch is cross exam ain't nothing to fuck with

Don't worry guys I'm sure this is the right thing to do we'll just follow the formula and our working days are through heard thrash metal was back, still kicking, going through its second wave had an idea; we'll ride this trend and get ourselves fat fucking paid made in the shade - big money we'll start a band, get us some fans live off the royalties it'll be so fucking easy - here's the plan we'll rip off every single thing from every single band we can find some good riffs to steal with commercial appeal we'll sign a record deal then roll around in our thrash money take through notes on songs exodus wrote buy matching leather coats white hi-top sneakers prove we're the real deal lets all quit our jobs won't need 'em any more we'll be superstars soon our foot is in the fucking door we'll buy expensive cars; pay for houses with cash see the money ain't an object because now we're paid to fucking thrash don't get me wrong, we'll still hit the beer bong but now we'll load it up with dom and cristal denim vests by gucci just you wait and you'll see as soon as the checks roll in we'll have it all my bank account is empty so fucking hungry things just aren't going how i would expect my kitchen pantry's bare nothing to eat there somebody tell me where the fuck's my check?

Blackout 03:10
It was three in the morning or so when I left the bar and stumbled drunk across the parking lot in search of my car I was fumbling with my keys when everything started to go black and I felt this sickly cold grow up the small of my back I can't remember it, don't know just what I did like some demon possessed, I can't believe they're dead shaking off the dizziness I unlocked the door and leaned my weight against its frame until my footing was sure I just thought I'd sleep it off in my car for the night and when I woke up in the morning everything would be all right I came to in a daze dropped to the ground with a thud and looking down upon myself saw I was covered in blood and it all came back! awake I stepped out of the car; walked back into the place whereupon I leaned across the bar and grabbed its tender by his face "you watered down my drinks all night, my bill was way to high" "I know you tried to cheat me, stupid fuck and now you're gonna die" then they laughed like it was a joke but they can't laugh without a throat the other patrons screamed in fear but the only voice that I could hear said kill them all x a bunch

Destroy I want to annihilate everything that I see its not catharsis; there's no pent up rage built up inside of me I get a high from the mere act of undoing what's been done obliterate even my own possessions just for fucking fun I find myself jealous of earthquakes over the fact there's just so much they get to fucking break how'd I get this way? I don't fucking know check the family tree; I think I might be part tornado if you build it I will smash it buy a car just to fucking crash it wish I could go pro at making things explode cause I have a gift as I have oftentimes shown I'm at it again; it's an obsession no way to defend yourself or your possessions it's a destructive force that must run its course and I am the source, levelling all I see its time for operation devastation operation devastation
