I will do it your way and I’ll win I will do it your way, let me in I will do it your way and I’ll win I will do it your way, Let me in Send three roses for another duel Send three roses, sweat 'n pride for fuel Send three roses for the ones lost MIA Send three roses, Child lost today No one ever loses and no one ever wins No one ever loses the will to die or live No one ever loses the things they have not found No one ever loses, But I’m hell-bound I’m hell-bound

Your skin is cold and white, my love, yeah And you know your heart it beats no more. Lay in a state as you await This is the cue for the start of the rise and fall... My girl you’re gone, why did you die? Coz you’re the one on this crucifix, high Pray in hate as you await And slowly sip your cocktail cyanide You’re so close in this dark room And sometimes you know you make me feel Like you’re alive and like you’re dead Is this surreal or is it the end? CHORUS: Bury me alive Lay me by your side

Back to '76 02:35
Walking around the streets of Melbourne There’s still people shouting punk’s not dead We are the forgotten generation, the voice of reborn youth Punks are people who’ve kept the faith and you know what to do Tell those ignorant fucking wankers that punk is your attitude The honest views of punk remain, the views of love, the feelings of hate And no matter what the ignorant say Punk is alive and here to stay Punks are people that unite together, Destroy the system and we’ll live forever So what if chaos prevails, punk is united and anarchy won’t fail (Chorus) Because the scene’s not really gone (fuck no) You only think its dead (punk’s not dead) It’s time to resurrect it (fuck yeah) Back to 76. Oi!
4.
Wishing Well 01:49
Surgical steel, cold as all hell Drop another dollar down the wishing well Frozen bolts of lightning, sure you can tell Drop another dollar down the wishing well A cold cold wind runs the witches spell Got no more money for the wishing well A burning hot sweat, my body will tell Drop another dollar down the wishing well Well my baby’s gone, she’s got the spell Down with my money in the wishing well Burning hot sweats, my body will tell Drop another dollar down the wishing well (Chorus) For you the bells toll Ring across the land… I wish you well
5.
You left without a trace All I can remember is the smile on your face You said that you don’t care Well you sucked out all my love And now my heart is bare There’s a place in my heart for you But it don’t seem to matter what I say or do And I can tell You’re the one for me But you think our love can never be Well you can take my heart But don’t you take my soul My mind is gone and my body is growing old And if you’re the one to burn in hell Then please make sure you take me there as well CHORUS: Bad girls go to Hell, Alright, you go to Hell
6.
Pran Pigs 02:24
You’ve got no hope if you live in Prahran The cops are worse than the cops in Iran Like a Jew in Germany in ‘43, you got no hope they’ll never let you be They’ll smash you, beat you, fuck up your face They’re anything but legal, they’re a fucking disgrace Walking down the street with just one can Up comes a copper, he’s a real ‘big man’ Beat you all over chuck you to the ground Into a divvy then off to the pound A regulation beating with a telephone book No right of complaint, he’ll get off the hook CHORUS Prahran Pigs, Prahran Pigs Take off your badge and gun (get fucked) Prahran Pigs, Prahran Pigs Then we’ll see who’ll fucking run...
7.
Cheap Regret 02:57
It’s not an easy walk to freedom But it’s an easy walk to death Don’t walk away from things that you love There’s no room for cheap regret There’s a long road to heaven And a real short road to hell When you stab the one you hate I will never tell There’s blood as thick as lead Blood as thick as water We will unite when under attack And unite when we slaughter It’s an idle run with apathy A real hard road to unite We will smash the system Uphold the right CHORUS: I will never tell you No cheap regret
8.
Crystal Ball 03:28
I look down the road, a mile so long The crystal ball shatters on a world gone wrong A new sun in Heaven, a baby is born And the old man dies in the tempest of a storm I look at the sky, I see a day so blue Think no ending misery, nothing but doom I think there is happiness Be happy being alive But another tear falls when another human dies Well I look at my dream and I dream I can cope There is freedom in Eden and Eden means hope A new day will dawn, a God up high Defy the men who control the control you defy CHORUS: And we still, we say we’re together And we will, we will I say We all fall apart END: I look at my life, what is it for I have asked myself this question before Look at the writing on the wall, it's gonna shatter And the Earth is going to shatter Like a tiny crystal ball Into a million tiny pieces
9.
Broken Pride 01:39
Oh what a feeling obnoxious and arrogant From the blind I’m stealing and like hell I’ll repent No mercy given to the innocent Nothing is gained, all is spent There’s no resistance anymore To the dead I’m calling don’t ignore Hell on earth before our time Global destruction seems like a lie Defend our freedom of rebellion Stories get told, wars we compete Defy the lies, amass intelligence There’s coming of a time we win from defeat CHORUS Oh, then she died Caught in political suicide Oh and then she died Caught in political suicide My Broken Pride
10.
Here I sit drinking my dole, popping my pills And smoking my dope Yeah I’m a punk, and I got no job coz of the way that I look No-one at all will give me a go Even though I got a fucking HSC The government say its coz of my hair And my violent clothes that I got no hope I’ll still be a punk in ten years time, If I survive on the lousy dole Boring days with no TV, no electricity and drinking cheap wine All I’ll have is me mates, and drugs, And the will to destroy the fucked up, shitty asshole government CHORUS: Come on government give the youth of today a fucking say We’ll go on.....on and on
11.
Jonnie 01:38
Another bash from another cop, it’s just another day Come and smash our squat, doesn’t matter what you fuck’n say You’ll never trust cops again whether you’re a punk, a skin or not They will kick you in the fucking head Beat you ‘til you drop Jonnie’s left home, he’s got no place to go Wandering the streets, a punk on his own. Dreams of a future gone up in smoke Life in a squat wasn’t lending much hope There’s nothing for him to do but shoot-up his dole, Pop his prescribed pills and smoke his dope One day the cops came and smashed up his home They flinched his things, then left him alone The next day they did return, they beat him up and ignored his groans They kicked him in the head, They kicked and kicked until the fucker was dead
12.
Nuclear Sky 03:04
The night is grey, the sky is cold, the moon is full, full of blood Nuclear creatures stalk the city, destroy all life, kill without pity Murder and mayhem, inconsiderate hate, Re-write the Bible to change human fate A lust for pillage is human desire The cities all crumble, blitzed with fire The sun is white, the wind is a chill, the moon is red, a look's gonna kill Human creatures are melted, deformed, Murder existence, end mortal spawn Corpses crumble, litter the ground A testament of genocide has been found The masses of death become your wife A drop of a bomb ends your life CHORUS: Nuclear sky, it’s time, nuclear sky, you’ll die END: Frustration, destruction, we fuck the world, The bomb will drop to kill us all Murder my love, slice my soul, The existence of Earth is now a black hole
13.
Did you see the man, with a black rose in his hand, in a white suit and tie? Did you wonder what he was doing, can you see him running? Or did you see him cry? Did you see the man, with a crucifix in his hand, high from above? Do you know what he does, can he really fly? Or does he love? Well did you see the man, and can you understand God? God he’s watching you Did you think he’s living? He knows you're dying One of the chosen few CHORUS: Do you read the paper, listen to the news, beg, steal or borrow? Or will you waste a moment, waiting, hoping, waiting For tomorrow?
14.
Well as I sit here waiting, anticipating, what’s going to blow Blow up in my mind.... My heart starts to race, I lose faith, breakdown to my knees And I start to cry… Well I’ve got two choices, to live or die And sometimes, all the time, you wonder why not suicide.... Why not suicide? And if my life shatters, nothing matters, coz if it did, you know That it’d be unkind.... I get comfort from the thought that there is no after-life, all I know is Is that it’s not quite time to fly My screams turn to laughter while I look after, the empty memories The empty memories deep inside When my imagination’s at its best I’ll never rest, and I’ll search for new answers You know I’ll fucking never find, you know somehow I’ll never find And when I think of death I don’t forget, what they told me in Church, What they told me was a lie And to myself I confess I’m depressed, they’re gonna hang me They’re gonna hang me without being tried
