False imprisonment, pain & murder Society's fucked so eat your burger Blood is red but no one cares Falls to the ground without no care So take their families that's alright They'll do just fine in your cages Don't know your language so they can't tell you The pain they feel when they cry Another day another murder Just so you can quench your hunger They have a pulse, memories too But you don't care because they're not you Be a man, eat a pig Be a man, eat a cow Be a man with your blood filled burger Be a man, deny meat is murder Blood for hunger Blood for hunger Cut them open & leave them to die But you escape the prison time Million of lives that they have taken Just so you can eat your bacon Justify killing them But crucify the killers of others By your side they have the rights But on their own you kill you murder They have the right! They have the right They have the right to live They have the right! They have the right But you raise them to die Be a man, eat a pig Be a man, eat a cow Be a man with your blood filled burger Be a man, deny meat is murder Blood for hunger Blood for hunger Voice for the voiceless It shouldn't have to be Use your fucking head They're sentient beings A voice for the voiceless It shouldn't have to be Murder of millions Is always fucking wrong Be a man, eat a pig Be a man, eat a cow Be a man with your blood filled burger Be a man, deny meat is murder Blood for hunger Blood for hunger Blood for hunger Can't quench your hunger

Hair Dye 03:28
Hair dye, piercings, tattoos Didn't know her name but I asked her out She said, "Thanks, but my answer's no. Will I see you at the show?" When I got there, there she was Kicking the shit out of some rich kid Who got too drunk & tried to feel her up I bet he'll never touch her again She don't dance But she's got me losing my mind She don't skank But she's got me going insane She don't dance But she's got me losing my mind She don't skank But she's got me going insane Maybe this song will change her mind Maybe this song will get her on the dance floor Really fucking doubt it Because she's heard it all before By a better fucking band In a better fucking club With a better fucking singer That remembers the lyrics Hey hey hey Oi Hey hey hey Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up Show ran late & I missed my bus I went out to hitch a ride There she was under the street light Sitting all alone with nowhere to go It was cold so I gave her my jacket She said, "Thanks, but my answers still no." Sat around talked for hours When she left my ring was gone She don't dance But she's got me losing my mind She don't skank But she's got me going insane She don't dance But she's got me losing my mind She don't skank But she's got me going insane Maybe this song will change her mind Maybe this song will get her on the dance floor Really fucking doubt it Because she's heard it all before By a better fucking band In a better fucking club With a better fucking singer That remembers the lyrics Hey hey hey Oi Hey hey hey Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up Went out the next day, I ran into her Sure enough my ring was on her finger I said, "It's fine I don't need it." She said, "Good. I was planing on keeping it" Walked around talked for hours Started to rain so we danced in the streets Hair dye dripping down her face But I got lost in her eyes Hey hey hey Oi Hey hey hey Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up

Freedom 04:02
Freedom for one's not Freedom at all But a dictatorship destined to fall This is how we're living everyday Keep on complaining but nothing changes Nothing changes, nothing changes Keep on complaining but nothing changes This is what you call Freedom This is what you call Freedom This is what you call Freedom This is what you call Freedom Take your money, tell you what to do Force you to be a slave & then they blame you It's all part of their plain, no one had a chance They play your life just like a fucking game They'll stab you in the back, leave you for dead But you pledge your loyalty to them Because they give you bread This is what you call Freedom This is what you call Freedom This is what you call Freedom This is what you call Freedom No one's free 'til all are free No one's free 'til all are free No one's free 'til all are free No one's free 'til all are free No one's free 'til all are free No one's free 'til all are free No one's free 'til all are free No one's free 'til all are free Freedom never left, just a suffocating mess Locked in a cage & throw away the key Ain't it ironic that Freedom's now a prisoner To our Western way of living that you call scarcity Freedom never left, just a suffocating mess Locked in a cage & throw away the key Ain't it ironic that Freedoms now a prisoner To our Western way of living that you call scarcity This is what you call Freedom This is what you call Freedom

Johnny was a skateboard kid No one even knew he existed Lived his life on the road Just like his father did You probably passed him by Didn't even bother to hear his story 'cause you already knew That there was no glory Who woulda thought they'd find each other? Who woulda thought they'd find the answer? Suicide pact, no going back There's no pain where they're at Kelly was a businessman's daughter He didn't bother to get to know her Lived her life raised by a nanny All she knew was his money Started to drink & pop some pills What else was she to do? Cut her self just to feel Pain proved life was real Who woulda thought they'd find each other? Who woulda thought they'd find the answer? Suicide pact, no going back There's no pain where they're at Who woulda thought they'd find each other? Who woulda thought they'd find the answer? Suicide pact, no going back There's no pain where they're at

Who Are You? 02:31
I should have known better The signs were always there That chip on your shoulder's Twisted your mind & bent it to irrational fear The sun has set On my respect Who are you? Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?/I don't know you anymore Who are you? Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?/I don't know you anymore You're proud of your background There's no need to choose sides Now history's come back round A different target but the same mistake, how could you be so blind? The sun has set On my respect Who are you? Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?/I don't know you anymore Who are you? Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?/I don't know you anymore Nobody's wrong, nobody's right Nobody needs to fight this fight Why don't you learn from what you teach? Why don't you practice what you preach? Who are you? Who are you? Who are you? I don't know you anymore Who are you? Who are you? Who are you? I don't know you anymore I don't know you any more I don't know you anymore I don't know you anymore

I know you like to play the victim But it's not your blood that's on the mirror Lost on your generation And your ships destined to sink So when there's no one else Don't come running to me Because I won't be your saviour No I won't be your saviour So just run and hide Just like you always did Just like you always did Just like you always did One last Rose you gave to me Cut the ropes & set me free One last Rose you gave to me Cut the ropes & watch me fall Now one last time I'll turn from you In disgust & then we're through One last time I'll turn from you In disgust & I won't miss you Because I don't need you now No I don't need you now Hope you miss me now Because I don't need you now One last time I'll turn from you In disgust & I won't miss you One last time I'll turn from you In disgust & say fuck you One last Rose you gave to me Cut the ropes & set me free One last Rose you gave to me Cut the ropes & watch me fall One last Rose you gave to me Cut the ropes & set me free One last Rose you gave to me Cut the ropes & watch me fall One last Rose you gave to me Cut me open & watch me bleed One last Rose you gave to me One last Rose you'll never get back

Raccoons 12:15
RACCOONS We're raccoons we dumpster dive Sometimes for fun sometimes to survive No one needs to tell us why The system's fucked we understand It's all been planned it's all been rigged They keep us down to keep us out But no one thought that we would shout No one thought that we would shout No one thought that we would shout No one thought that we would shout No one thought that we would shout Strangers passing by Think they're better than us Maybe they're right, maybe they're wrong In the end we all die Strangers passing by Think they're better than us Maybe they're right, maybe they're wrong In the end we all die We're the freaks that you avoid Wondering the streets with bloodshot eyes 'cause we get no sleep, we get no rest Still we can't help but wonder why No one wants to see a change & no one wants to save a tree But we all know the system's fucked We all know the system's fucked We all know the system's fucked We all know the system's fucked We all know the system's fucked Strangers passing by Think they're better than us Maybe they're right, maybe they're wrong In the end we all die Strangers passing by Think they're better than us Maybe they're right, maybe they're wrong In the end we all die Strangers passing by Think they're better than us Maybe they're right, maybe they're wrong In the end we all die Strangers passing by Think they're better than us Maybe they're right, maybe they're wrong In the end we all die Raccoons THE SINISTER PRIME MINISTER & A TROLL NAMED FART In a land not too far away, in a time not long ago A witch took power of an island with a dark magic loophole The Sinister Prime Minister was an egomaniac Surrounded by her crony crows, the sky it turned pitch black Across the sea in another land lived an evil troll named Fart Whose greed & lust compelled him from his tower to depart His lungs breathed forth a toxic cloud, he spewed hot air with force Now up is down & wrong is right & bigotry's endorsed. So rise people rise raise your fists up to the skies If we all rise together then they can't ignore our cries The troll he turned his big white house into a circus tent His sycophants raised spider flags, he denied all consequence He'd thrown out all his detractors, his comrades all left town Because no one likes a circus where the only act is clowns The witch she was cold blooded & her power fuelled by gold She clad the poor in heartache tightening her stranglehold Their homes! Their lives! Their human rights! She set them all aglow We need a parliament of owls, not this murder of crows So rise people rise raise your fists up to the skies If we all rise together then they can't ignore our cries & stride people stride they won't conquer, can't divide If we all march with purpose, then we can march with pride Behind the scenes that Murdoch fox pulled on his puppet strings The troll crossed seas & oceans, met the witch for revelings He put his tiny hand in hers they skipped through fields of wheat Fart tweeted with the crows while the fox smiled & bared his teeth So rise people rise raise your fists up to the skies If we all rise together then they can't ignore our cries & stride people stride they won't conquer, can't divide If we all march with purpose, then we can march with pride Shout people shout tell them we know what they're about Blow harder than the blowhards we can blow their smokescreens out The monsters in this tail are more real than I can wish They want you to think happy endings are only for the rich Well fuck 'em They can try to take our rights away but they can't take our voice So sing it loud & sing it proud Rise! Stride! Shout! Sing! Rejoice So rise people rise raise your fists up to the skies If we all rise together then they can't ignore our cries & stride people stride they won't conquer, can't divide If we all march with purpose, then we can march with pride Shout people shout tell them we know what they're about Blow harder than the blowhards we can blow their smokescreens out Sing people sing let your voices ring When we all sing together we can do anything Yes when we all sing together we can accomplish anthing When we sing for each other the sound is breathtaking

"The album opens with some seriously fuzzed up guitar lick, a number of Oi! shouts and is propelled into a ska-punk party replete with some gravel throated vocals that add to the unique spin these boys bring to the genre." - Punk Online

"...of the collection it’s hard to pick out standouts as they all just dive in head first into a blaze of fuzzing guitars and shouty, catchy vocals. If you are on the hunt for some noisy ska to get you through the cold nights, give this lot a spin." - Ben Jekyll
