Last 3 years I sang the same song Wond’ring what the hell was going wrong Unreality was the price to pay World kept turning even if I slept all day Now that life is falling apart How have I kept going so far? Why do I keep trying so hard? Times of pain have shadowed my step sometimes hiding sometimes I take them on Everyday’s a holocaust persecution constant loss Senseless acts of violence somehow Drive my mind to xanax dreams and now… Now that life is falling apart How have I kept going so far? Why do I keep trying so hard? Speeding to the final brick wall Pump the gas, let’s break this mothers balls Money drains the souls from us all We’re human buyings…kill the shopping mall Now that life is falling apart How have I kept going so far? Why do I keep trying so hard? Someday you will see my blood A TV soundbyte screaming the truth

Our George 03:21
What’s on my mind? Those things I cannot find Yesterday the mirror broke This life’s a fucking joke They say we’re watching you Iraq I think they’re planning an attack The Muslim bastard’s baking bombs I say we blow ‘em to kingdom come And Texas runs the world They make decisions there They fucked up everywhere Can’t even breathe on Houston streets I think George is neat The cowboy hat is king He ain’t done a goddam thing Thank you 9-11 for that airplane bomb We got a war on terror, now George is God Rawhide now We’ll hogtie all the Muslims We’ll send ‘em to the camps We’ll build ‘em all in Texas by crude oil lamps George’ll make a million His friends will have a laugh We better start producing Dow chemical nerve gas Six more years while George makes up new words He’s the leader of the free world Grand Poobah of the brass He doesn’t need a speechwriter he needs an English class Our George!

The taxman’s taking all my dough and left me in this prison hole but when he comes to get his check I’ll respectfully break his neck F*** the IRS He makes up rules and breaks them too Make no mistake, he’s out to get you He calls you “customer” not thief but words don’t hide his true belief “You can’t tape this” and “don’t quote that” He’ll change his story very fast And when you catch him in a lie He’s judge and jury - but don’t you cry, say F*** the IRS F*** this fucking mess F*** the IRS today I need this to provide some food these cancelled check show it’s the truth But column A and table B say food don’t count and housing’s free No matter what they say you owe they’ll lay the numbers out to show that if you move to East LA you’ll have plenty of cash with which to pay F*** the IRS F*** this fucking mess F*** the IRS today

The mirror doesn’t lie The hate is in my eyes The mirror doesn’t lie I want them all to die The mirror doesn’t lie My pain has multiplied The mirror doesn’t lie And nothing less will satisfy The mirror doesn’t lie This ain’t no lullaby The mirror doesn’t lie I’m out to crucify The mirror doesn’t lie I claim no alibi The mirror doesn’t lie I’m here to simplify The mirror doesn’t lie ‘Cause now it’s do or die I see such poison in my eyes It comes to me as no surprise A vengeance born of thwarted greed And in my bed the hatred breeds I want to nail the bastards lie And break them right between the eyes For honest smiles hide a mistake I’ve got nothing whole left to break And is there any way around This dirty world which brings me down The mirror doesn’t lie... I hate the news the TV brings I feel like smashing everything I’m throwing keys and breaking balls I want to smash right through a wall And throw my fist at fading punks Or pump their brains with mindless junk Just like this country does to me I want the founding fathers to bleed The mirror doesn’t lie...

People walkin’ round Normal People movin’ town Normal People having fun Normal People I ain’t one How do they do those normal people things? How do they know they can make it through anything? How do they say those normal people things? How do they say they’re happy just living? Normal People love mom & dad Normal People are never sad Normal People being free Normal People are all I see Normal People don’t think so much Normal People are out of touch Normal People got so much pride Normal People are parasites Normal People think of themselves Normal People can go to hell Normal People the selfish creeps Normal People won’t talk to me

Infidels 02:36
If I was a terrorist what would I do to piss off Americans (frighten them too) I'd blow up a shopping mall, maybe a few? Infidels What is the one god they place on a perch but the almighty dollar for which they all search as the infidels worship the shopping mall church and what could be worth getting up for each day than chasin' and racin' around just to say I've cash to buy much more stuff, hidden away Infidels so one of America's cash tickled dream some Muslim invaders killed thousands unseen in the name of some other god, just as obscene so which is the wiser, the media blind or the self riteous terrorists murdering time? I think it's the poet composing this rhyme. Infidels

about

Mutiny in Jonestown Washington

Influenced by classic 70's progressive rock bands like King Crimson, Van Der Graaf Generator & Genesis - along with late 60's psychedelia from The Beatles, Procol Harum & Pink Floyd (with a little 70's Black Sabbath thrown in for good measure), Mutiny in Jonestown has always sought to take these influences and synthesize them into something new.

The band has released 42 albums since 1987.
