kill jenny like that (the legion of doom)



*I can't believe it has taken me this long to post some Legion of Doom.  LOD does mashups.  Chad Blinman and Trever Keith (Face to Face) run the show.  They never made videos for the songs.  Everything that you can find is fan-produced.*

working this job (drive-by truckers)


*Some of you out there might know what this is all about.  If you don't, good.  I hope you never know.*

sons of sceva










Where were you
when this storm of hate
overtook us
this insufferable sickness
this horde of oppression
this biblical pestilence
where were you
my friend
when the world turned to hate
when the blood ran
to the horses' bridles
and the saints came crashing in
were you shouldering your load
alone or with friends
were you alarmed
were you disarmed
were you friend or foe
one of them or one of us
lay your head down
peacefully
lay your life down
fruitlessly
and when the machines come
they will tear from us
our jugulars
but we will be wholeheartedly
entertained.

withdrawal




















Breathe in
breathe out
eventually the pain will disengage
today is another step back
another ten miles
in the wrong direction
what a perilous place to be
so far from fuel
every landmark is unfamiliar
and someone menacing is on my trail

golden one
unflinching in the sun
monster, creator, saviour
what odds brought me here
what fate, what fire
where have you gone
my golden one?

there was fire in the sky today
there was noise
there was billowing smoke
ghost trains to nowhere
bats out of hell
I saw nothing
but my little world dying
in great detail
spelled out
with an imprimatur of hate
what I am is a prisoner
what I am is waiting

all I want
is the sun and rain
the pleasure and the pain
all I want
is a measure of freedom
all I want is you

golden one
you are my sun
you are my moon and stars
you are my blood
you are my scars
baby girl
you are the beginning
and I fear you will be
the end of me.
