White Dog 04:20
WHITE DOG Looks like the sheep dog’s back on the chain tonight We’re living the dream, we pack in punch, we love a fight Are you the one who’s kingdom comes, with drugs and guns Disease as charity? Are you the lot, who sets up shop, who keeps your mouth shut As you chew on memory! WHITE DOG The coward at the station WHITE DOG On the train of a nation I’m a WHITE DOG but at least I wonder, why the shelter I am in is void of colour. WHITE DOG Disgorge the totem WHITE DOG Breed imported For a WHITE DOG it’s a mongrel nation, & you litter’s filled with the filth of hatred. There’s a whimper in the dust and the sand of the dreaming that you couldn’t catch And like the devil dog you’ll be cut from your mouth to your ears and back. So live it up, low to the ground, sneaking around, reparations in the pound. And sit tight, cheat the bite, and be the fucking coward that festers what you’ve bred. WHITE DOG Mauling at the gutter WHITE DOG Ship wrecked with a rotten rudder I’m a WHITE DOG ‘cause the pack have ravaged, and fed me the scrap to disguise I’m a savage. WHITE DOG The kennel is sacred WHITE DOG There’s a plan for the clan To be a WHITE DOG but it’s a mongrel’s nation, & you litter’s filled with the filth of hatred.

Nails 01:19
NAILS Every time I come home falling down the stairs You run your mouth your nails flare And it’s such a fucked up way to hold on, to hold up And hit NAILS And Dig NAILS And Rip NAILS And when you miss, that’s the best And when I bend, you’re a mess You got me lined up fury and pain Raking through my wrists nail in the vein I set it up but for you to slip You’re hammering steel into a wall of brick And there ain’t no mix between to bond us, it’s beyond us You’re meant to lead motherfucker but you’re using a soft hand to guide And to think I’ll harden it Sets you up a mix that will crack as soon as it dries And corrosion pries Any swart sorrow that swells in silence Any gap between the bone Anything that holds us down will build it A warped place to call a home

Locals Only 02:30
LOCALS ONLY It’s team it’s routine and you know it’s getting tougher It’s blanket on community with shit stains on the covers Drop out after year 10 if you drop in you’re fucking dead Haven’t seen you at the pub so nik off ya grub It’s all scene baby, get what I mean We keep it clean baby, nothing between You ain’t dark, we ain’t at capacity, without tribal identity it’s bullshit when you tell me that it’s… LOCALS ONLY From here to North Steyne LOCALS ONLY Any cunt with half a brain LOCALS ONLY Gizz us a look at your dick And tell me WHAT’S YOUR POSTCODE? It’s 2096! It’s weak, it’s retreat And I’m chanting out the slogan I’m waiting in the carpark just to tell you “keep on movin’.” The sticker’s on my car, the stars up on me arm And a dozen local boys are here to keep you off the right path Give it a crack Johnny, we got your back Get out your sack Matty, Show ‘em the map In 20 years you’ll puke out a family And keep you’re mouth shut about the time that you had told me that it’s LOCALS ONLY From Manly to the Spit LOCALS ONLY Are you the queen up on the cliff LOCALS ONLY The barrel and the noose We’re pulling from the suburbs, from ur cars we barks abuse

Pills 04:07
PILLS The eyebrows are rising while head droops and falls The mouth continues smiling or is it just that the rest of it thaws? In plain sight, there is no fright, but mumble it we’ll crack the whip Load up on blood it’s candy sweet, one kneads the flesh forming a thin flesh I---E---Ahhhh We got them weekly pills, our script their pocket fills I---E---Ahhhh When the sturdy sick Runts eat up quick I---E---Ahhhh We got them weekly pills our script their pocket fills I---E---Ahhhh Legitimized by what’s prescribed Franchised when subsidized Higher than you blood pressure is the encouragement of your GP Who found that Hawaiian weather was always better when it was free Financial gain, it’s worth your pain, that class action’s for you to tame The winters here are getting cold Put out your arm now it’s been sold. Take one tonight Two more at light It’s for your health Not off the shelf We’re all in line We’re doing fine It’s cold pressed Just for you stress

BETWEEN THE FLAGS Between the flags this party’s got a list, You best not be a faggot or against drinking the piss And it’s alright, yeah it’s alright. Between the flags In the secrecy of sex, Oh come the Sunday sizzle, rescue reeled in by your neck And I’m alright, yes I’m alright. Between the flags Enjoy the sullen march And never figure drinking salt water leaves you parched You’ll be alright, just alright Between the flags You gotta hold back Or take a nose dive into some old mate’s bigot trap And that just ain’t right, don’t tell me it’s alright You don’t want to swim against the tide Whatever you feel boy you better hide You wanna fit in with the top crew You wanna fuck the babes suck brew Every night, between the flags But I’m breaking I’m putting the fake in I’m trashing the club house and sending it over your head I’m true fashion You know I’ll be bashing But laying them into the cap of yellow & red So whistle in And we’ll go hell for leather You nut hugging nuisance Your hide so weathered Baptised in a pale of piss And the sacrament of the sea! That’s Steve over there on the beachfront, Head held in the sand, that’s Steve and his old man Cop the abuse in the heat son, c’mon take it like a man That’s life between the flags

Own me 01:47
OWN ME I’m on my knees and I can’t remember how I fell I’m yelling please but you can’t resist that final nail I want your defects I’m in the pit of your pain and I pity your hell OWN ME From the dirt to the drink That you spat in my face OWN ME You put me in that pit I want a drill to the brain Rent my body in the liquid night I’ll be in debt for the rest of my life You’re so empty So you live inside of me torment is your key OWN ME I’m on the 23rd scaff get out of my face OWN ME Hate is high estate and you own my mind

DONE BY THE DOGS I’m gunning through the Sydney CBD On my trail with a tail the dogs are after me I’m fanging it but I ain’t getting far Cause small crime pays the big boy’s day at Christmas party bars I’m the next best in show Let the whole carriage know Watch the bitch lead the mutt You fucking pig cunt DONE BY THE DOGS Less than a G Being put-down for point 3 DONE BY THE DOGS Back of the truck Bend over cough and try your luck Got rack? Get back the trained bitch attacks Discrepancy indecency for the youth, fags, and blacks Cops killing time, the greyhounds aren’t till 5 Cut cigarettes and placing bets with money from the fines.

Furnace 04:57
FURNACE At an inner-city bus stop on the nod perfect drop John’s pushin’ for the clock John wont ever get that bus, he’s set on catching pigeons, in multiplex visions, his customers come We all know John we seen him in that movie, But the part that threw me he acted like a slob We all know John his pixelated seizure cheering Clot by the holster of his puncture & gun. Lucky lush, lucky lush Heat the barrel, on the shot Hit the barrel, open shot Violent when I’m not meant to be, In the shooting gallery Is where I lay my head now Henry Light up, the furnace by my face Ariadne’s maze Is where I lay my head now Henry Behind each eye rolls a leech But I’m drained out, I’m a fiend They grind at the front of my skull I couldn’t tell you why, Rubbing tongues at the top of our mouths But outside the nest, fall and forget
10.
King Luke 03:42
KING LUKE A dozen smiles inked on you face Is now the mark that I can’t erase Well you knew, how the hopeless – how the hopeless helped the poor. Coming round every end of the week Part of the band that the crowd don’t see Well you grew to be the engine The engine of the tour SO FUCKING LOUD SO FUCKING PROUD To be home with the rest now MY BROTHER LUKE YOU WEAR THE CROWN Slinging stones with my best pals SO FUCKING LOUD SO FUCKING PROUD Complete rejection was our intention and to never mention a quarrel left unkept And be true, not to venture into a fold already set You never signed up for this shit, just turned up to the office and said “don’t eat me, don’t eat me, don’t eat me.” Kicked! To be kicked in the guts by your brothers who’s shared your blood and sweat Some boys sure lost respect. But not wrecked! ‘cause now I’m looking around at the fellas that are standing to my right and left, With a grip that doesn’t have a last breath

RELATED VIOLENCE I’m sitting out the back completely bent Considering what we’ve spent We’re both completely broke But still we’re buying Weak the word and whisper of abuse We slur and cut it loose And violence is the trust, supplied Eventually you’ll sleep That’s when I’ll check my teeth It’s such a pleasant hour To shower Knuckles that sting Eyes set sour Steel scratched skin What pain? It’s power! You cut so close you’re inside of me And when the drip hits ground it’s our name I see The blood you bleed it’s the same as me It’s the same as me Tomorrow it’s gonna be to us alright But it’s on the chin tonight Yet we share the same plot Where the other’s rot In shattered spill I sit With a bridge that’s barley lit I can see you walking home You’re lost and crying You must know the place is wrecked Complete lack of respect And the crew I’ve got around is a corpse of crime The time I spit blood in your face You put me in my place But it’s under your roof It’s a legacy… hell it’s family.

PRINCESS HIGHWAY Ooohhhh…C’mon and let me have it, Ooahhhh…I’m in gal I’m maggot Run a fist from your chest to your waist Push every button every hard held place You don’t believe in speeding safely, but still I want you so badly So c’mon let me have it, let me have it, let me at it now! I’m in an ultra-motion, to be abandoned I’m bled In bed PHWAHHHH¡¡¡ And there she is, an outback waiting for love You want me with you limits but every exit is my way to get off And so, and so I; start overtaking start taking too much I’m pushing gear, without letting you clutch I can’t resist the absence of you stare, you’re subtle eyes and the fury of your hair I’m on the highway the Princess Highway And laying down the line ain’t a toll that I’m willing to pay I need a traction, something to hold me down With the right amount of rough to keep me off the ground I love your looks and the full grown hips Just watch me fall as your silicon drips. I’m a piston a physical system A tender touch on a tough transmission….mission….mission
