POLICE STORY
James Kelly lied he said what the cops wanted him to say
James Kelly told us of the shit that went on in the cell of his
Broke his ribs told him not to speak, said you're drunk now on your feet
Into the van Kelly did go never seen again now everybody knows
James Kelly you're dead James Kelly who cares????
James Kelly you`re dead James Kelly cares
James kellys dead

KILLING MACHINE
I signed on the line and threw away my life
They gave me a gun They gave me a knife
They taught me how to kill and they taught me how to hate
Killing Machine
Killing people I don`t even know
I was trained to give them that fatal blow
Just take orders I don`t ask
Carry out my savage task
Killing Machine

17 YEARS
17 years of hell and I just can't take it anymore its been
17 years of hell and no one has really cared for me before
All my friends said I would fail or I would end up on the run
Its been 17 years of hell and now I wanna have some fun
Because they've given me 17 years 17 years 17 years of hell
Its been 17 years OF HELL now what am I supposed to do
Its been 17 years OF HELL but I can't think of anything new
Now my future seems so bleak theres nowhere I can go
Its been 17 years OF HELL and my life has been going to slow
Because they've given me 17 years 17 years 17 years of hell

BASTARDS IN BLUE
They came down the street in their panda car
And we spent the night behind their bars
2am walking home and now I am sleeping in a cell all alone
Flashing headlights, slinging truncheons
Waiting for the guy who brings my drugs
It ain't safe to walk the streets
just the sound of their size 12 feet
Bastards in blue
Here they come they're bearing down
They're gonna run you out of town
Pick on you for the clothes you wear
Pick on you for the colour of your hair
Bastards in blue
But some of these cunts are o.k to me
Because some of these cunts can really see
We speak the truth don't they understand
One of these days we are going to rule this land
Don't trust people who I don't know
Specially the cops who speak to slow
Their all mentally retarded heads
And Pretty soon I hope they will all be dead
Bastards in Blue

POWER AND GREED
I am so tired of living in this place
Just wanna get out of the rat race
Don't want to live any monarchist dream
Don't wanna live here because I am anti Queen
I'm anti Queen
I cant take much more...(Cant make out the words)
I'm anti Queen and I don't give a shit about what they preach
The Royal family takes the money that you need
To pay for...........and to pay for the greed
So do you think this systems fair
When you can't afford the clothes you wear
They got mansions and so much land
No power its all a game
What we need to do is take away their rights
What we need to do is stand up and fight
So don't believe a word they say
(c)Complete Music
NO U TURNS
Why do we have to put up with all the crap they give to us
The government control and they dictate
but still the country in a terrible state
They bicker they fight they act like kids
those MPs(politicians) who represent us
There're the voice the voice of the nation
But who wants nuclear contamination
There's no U-turns now maggies (Margaret Thatcher) in
More unemployed as the weeks go by
But that's not so in number 10
There's no turns they're bleeding us dry
They bleed us dry for all we¥ve got
Ask for more but that's not the way it should be
cos this should be a free country
(c)Complete Music
PUT YOUR MONEY
There's people living on the poverty line
You never here too much about them
I guess there just a sign of the times victims of recesion
But still there are divisions between the rich and poor
This is a democracy not a few fucking war
Where you can do just what you want
That way you should be free
Although I must admit it doesn't look that way to me
Put Your money where your mouth is
Lets have some wealth distrubution
Dont wast it just give it away
It's gotta be the only solution
Disband the fucking Monarchy
You can do that for a start
There all just useless relics and
They are living in the past
People can't survive on the things they think we need
People who want no more are people with oout no greed
Were not telling you too give away your pay
We gotta get through to the rich
Surely they could do without their garden parties
Swimming pool and brand new polo pitch
(c)Complete Music
DONT BLAME US
We get the blame for everything
For what we do and what we are involved in
No one considers the actual facts
We're the ones that get attacked
Don't blame us for it
The police give us a rough time
They pick us up at any time
Blame me for everything that I do
For every crime that's old and new
Because I wear my scruffy clothes
They beat me up and that's how it goes
Don't blame us for it
We get the blame for everything
For all the crimes that we are involved in
No one considers the actual facts
We're the ones that get attacked
(c)Complete Music
ARMS RACE
Nowhere to go don't even know my name
Such a long time since I played your war games
Don't know the rules but I can learn real fast
They're gonna start a nuclear blast
Join in the arms race seems allot of fun
Fingers on the button no need to use a gun
They play their game with a loaded dice
Don't take no orders we just follow advice
The politicians they make all the noise
They're playing pogo with their nuclear toys now
Join in the arms race seems allot of fun
Fingers on the button no need to use a gun
(c)Complete Music
I NEVER NEEDED YOU
I never wanted to find out the reason
Of what was really wrong inside
I just didn't want to know about it
'Cos all I needed to do was hide
But as the days went by
And all my friends wanted to find out
I just didn't want to know about it
'Cos all I needed to do was shout
I Never Needed You
As soon as I was told I was going to die
A different person entered me
Some people seemed to change overnight
Oh why cant they see?
I just couldn't seem to do no wrong
All I seemed to do was right
and then with only two months left
That's all I seemed to do was fight
And say....
(c)Complete Music
MINDLESS VIOLENCE
Is there something wrong with the way I dress
Or have you big friends you wanna impress
Different person when you're pissed
Try not to fight but can't resist
Can't hurt me I don't bother you Tired off your hands, nothing better to do
.......................lying on my face
Fight fight fight your so hard Dr martin boot your ace card
Kick kick kick looks so good who's that lieing in a pool of blood
It's mindless violence all you need cos when it comes to make me bleed
Really see whats wrong with you,What your doing is nothing new
What makes you think you're so great, When it comes to deciding peoples fate
When in a gang is always right Has gotta fight and have some fun
People like him have got brains of shit People like him shouldn't exist....,
can't get up because I am a stretcher case
(c)Complete Music
FIRE
Wait till you see the whites of their eyes
Wait till you see the expression on their faces
Wait until you smell the stench of the fear
Wait till you see the tears on the cheeks
Wait till you see those bodies burn
Wait till you see their flesh burn dry
Wait till you see those twisted limbs
Wait till your stomach can't stand the sight
Then fire when you hear the order
Then shoot that man that you have been taught to hate
Then fire he's coming closer shoot that man between the face
Then fire at the man that gave the order
Shoot that man who taught you how to hate
Then fire.......................
Shoot that man shoot clean and straight

THE PARTISANS
There's Politians in the U.S.A. theres politicians in Russia
The only thing they got in common, and thats the need for power
But we don`t care what happens on the final day
And we don`t care if there is no future
All we wanna do is join the likes of you
And form the Partisans to gain some real power
You shouldn`t work for their rules or rules enjoy the dole its more fun
Just cause some problems and enjoy yourselves
That way you`ll never need no guns
We are the Partisans were fighting for our rights fighting for our freedom
We are The Partisans oppose all wars we are the Partisans so join our cause
You are just the kids and your off the streets
You are all the same so face the facts
Just cause some problems and enjoy yourself Until you make an attack.

OVERDOSE
You're parents and the goverment say why do you need drugs
They think they know whats good for you but still they call you thugs
Your parents and the Goverment, they always think they're right
They bring you up the right way and teach you how to fight
Then they call you antisocial, you are opposed to all their ways
They think .......(unsure of the lyrics) They're laying in their graves
There is no real need for drugs or so its always said
Because they know the harm that's done the freedom in your head

THE TIME WAS RIGHT ALBUM
BLIND AMBITION
Blind Ambition I woke up in the morning I was looking for a sign I thought I was doing well and everything was fine
But as the hours past and it did not last
The people laughed as they walked past
They looked at me strange as they walked out of range
I heard their idle threats try to put me to the test
I was up all day and I was up all night
Wondering when things would turn out right
My heart it bleeds for those who cannot see the right from wrong They can`t find a way out though they say they are strong
Contented and confined to a life of misery
Like a blind mans ambition to swim the raging sea
I did my best to beat the rest, to be a man and work it out
But people said I was going mad That I`d lost all sanity that I ever had
Was it the drugs or was it the pressure could have been life on the never never
Plastic people were all around Happy with their dreams and the safe pop sound
Don`t put me down cos I`m different to you Don`t slag me off and I won`t slag you
Beat me up if it pleases you You are Mr Nobody I can see through you
You`ve got your car and you`ve got your house
You¥re kids are very happy in the happy happy house
A holiday in Spain you need a break Dancing in the Discos until the day break
Hit your kids if they step out of line send them to school make sure they do fine..

CHANGE
You've got to grow up sometime And see the other point of view
Is it good or is it bad Is it old or is it new
Change change Soon the day when it will all change I'm waiting patiently for the day
When it's going to change
It's all the same for miles around You love to hate the band With the same old sound
Don't let your only fear break away That way your phoney cause Will live another day
The tables are not turned Until you find A solution to a problem Within your mind
Your views can change Just like your clothes So what's the answer No one knows
You'll have to grow up another day You'll have to find out another way Questions can't
be answered, ain't that strange? Fight your endless fight and nothings gonna change
(c)MCS Music
COME CLEAN
I'd better leave now It's gone too far I've hurt too deep
And I'm sure the wound will scar And in the morning All is not clear
I try to see through hazy eyes All the thoughts I fear
What did I do? What did I say? I should have left you far away
The reason reason cannot be found
It hurts to think about times when I've been down
When I can think again And I can see The foolishness I hide in vain
Has not come clean The seams have torn once more
I can't hold back I make a good excuse
To grip the feelings that I lack If you could see yourself right now
What would you say? And you want to preach a sermon
Every day, You drink another drink see how you lie
It gives you courage and make you cry The world I see reflects on me through my eyes my demise
(c)MCS Music
ANGER AND FEAR
Smile no more in your tower block flat
Soon you'll be far away Sing your song to the Vietcong
And just see what they say Don't ignore the fact that someday
They will catch you unaware Only time will tell, you'll see
Friend just die but thousands cry And that's all it means to me
Your smiles just don't wanna know As the knifes edge can be seen
As Reward for all your effort All you want is company
So what about you all You know its not so hard to find
Desertion with your head held high That's all it means That's all it means to me
But as your fears begin to run dry You'll take the memories home
They won't fade as time goes by
When the gunships roar, from the sky they'll fall
And the heat begins to burn From this hell you'll realise
There's just one thing to learn Your wound will always bleed
And your secrets never heal With guns and bombs you'll start again
And that's all it means to me That's all it means to me
(c)MCS Music
ONLY 21
We grew up together We saw it all we thought we had it made
but how was I gonna know That the bond we had would soon begin to fade
The times we spent the fun we had Are the memories that just turned bad
But that's the price we pay for being young
We roamed the streets of every town We almost had the country on its knees
But mass acceptance dragged you down We were a problem overcome with ease
But unlike as we thought was right We went down without a fight
And we let them grind us into the ground
The years have gone behind us The things we've said and done
It's strange to be nostalgic When you're only 21
There came a time when you were gone, When everything you stood for disappeared
And now I look at the shadow left And I doubt if you will reappear
'Cos you've left a legacy of clones Of broken minds in broken homes
And it looks like I've become a memory
(c)MCS Music
THE MONEY ROLLS IN
Trying hard not to show someone you care
Telling people that there's something new each year
for 52 weeks that's all i hear
The days just pass me by
But still you lay right there before me
Hide beneath your color spread
Still yet to prove your story
Guitars scream out and everyone shouts as though everything's all by the way
But the money rolls in and the image wears thin and you fall at the end of the day
You've told so many lies your different faces i despise
20,000 voices strong 20,000 can't be wrong
(c)MCS Music
THE TIME WAS RIGHT
Someone said the time was right each word was so sincere
His friends smiled and raised a glass then drank another beer
Their hearts were strong with feelings for they knew what they had found
A whole new world was waiting for the men who stood their ground
The time was right The time was right
But the time for truth was over
The time was right The time was right
But now that time is dead and gone
People cried tears of blood as the young men marched away
Prayers were heard from the crowd "Return them safe one day"
But all night long as darkness filled the sky
The old man's friend was dreaming of the day when he would die
The sun shone on the battlefield where a lonely figure stands
Full of shame he cries out loud this is something I don't understand
The days are short but the nights so long when you can't stop thinking back
Betray your trust to someone and he'll stab you in the back
(c)MCS Music
WHITE FLAG
I caught you on the offensive but you've levelled my defences
Blood on my face or is it lipstick? twin projectiles, were they ballistic?
I tried a little gentle persuasion but you insisted on an invasion
I was getting my senses back you launched a full frontal attack
Call the hostilities to a halt I can't cope with this brutal assault
I've tried it all from money to charm I may as well unilateral disarm
You foiled my plants with a mind detector I'm a conscientious objector
The war you started was all out I didn't mean for us to fall out
You laid waste to my apartment with a saturation bombardment
Your mental state was on activate It was ready and set to detonate
Somewhere I think that we got it wrong I found myself sitting on a time bomb
The looks you're giving me are pure corrosive I'd better watch out 'cos you're highly explosive
I'm beaten, I'm bloody, I'm aching, I'm sore
I can't take anymore of this civil war
I'm gonna surrender 'cos I've had enough
If this is your idea of playing it rough
When all this is over I'll get the blame for allowing escalation of your war games
I once was your ally, I once was your friend
But now it seems it's over and it looks like the end

HYSTERIA EP
SO NEAT
Kelvin Klein and Reebok
Your making all the money that I aint got
I wanna keep buying but I know I am not
Clever in my pocket that way
Shaking in some sweat shop
The kids are living lives that they aint got
I wanna keep trying so I know I am not
Selling all the names for free
I wanna have it all
Going to make the world just like me
Meanwhile in the hight street
Theres a 24 something shopping in his gold feet
Got a credit card for brains
thats so neat
And he's selling all the names for free
I wanna have it all
Going to make the world just like me
Just do it if you want some
Keep running around and get some
Just do it if you want some
Gotta keep buying
I wanna have it all
Going to make the world just like me
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
CLASSIFIED INFO
Classified information hidden in the middle of the back page
Where the voices tease temptation, no one cares about the age
Someone sold a secret lonely life in hiding
Life is not complete he spends 24 hours trying
Now you're worth nothing again
Now your nothing
Emotion has no home, the credit on the card keeps falling
No one knows her name but he still keeps on calling
Daily news without the world outside its changing
All he cares about are the 4 walls that he's making
Now you're worth nothing again
Now your nothing
Gotta keep in favour
With the money and the men behind it all
Who like your bad behavior
But they ain't getting fucked
On the premier cut
Cos its all your money their taking
Cheap talk cheap talk
Gonna try my luck
With the boss whose good at faking
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
HYSTERIA
So lonely for the taste of all the tears
You told me meant so much through out the years
If only you could tell your stranger friend
Everything you've heard and seen
Selling all her secrets on a television screen
I know you know that it's too late
I know you know you love to hate
Hysteria draped in red and white and blue
Mass media and you think you know its true
I've seen ya' with your bouquets and your flowers
Screaming crying hoping lying
And when the chips are down you're gonna' start denying
Sometime you're gonna stare us in the eye
And maybe see whats going on inside
Lately you've got nothing left to hide
Screaming crying hoping lying
And when the chips are down your going to start denying
...So Lonely
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
IDIOT NATION ALBUM
REALITY TV
Spending all the time
Waiting for the idiots
To Surrender to whatever
I seen all the obsession that is
Family value, still you play the fool
Right now the suits and the ties
Seem like they are
Linkin Park and all the Rock Star
They wont they don' t want your name
Got no value got no fame
The Tv executive decisions have all
Been defined and written by the rules
Tune in and vote for the winner again
You don' t have to nothing else to do
Line up everbody' s waiting for you
To say your name and see you play the fool
Right now the suits and ties
Seem like they are
Linkin Park and every Rock Star
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand/Gustavsson/Neundorff
HYPER-VALUE
What's the point in talking shit about the weather
If it stops me drinking and feeling worse not better
I try to hide the bills but they aren't going nowhere
The telephone keeps calling, but cheap whisky says I don't care
I get my kicks
I keep buying it
And I deal with shit
Coz I get my kicks at Hypervalue
The weekend comes I stay at home
My TV does the talking
Same again I am on my own
My mind does all the walking
Someone called if I go out
The drinks will come on credit
The sound outside to good to hide
I think I'll go out and get it
Surrounded by the crap that I don't need
Credit cards that make me bleed
Thats all I get in this town.
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
ALL TURNED OUT THE SAME
Don't talk don't try to see inside
I know your bullshit and all your lies
Don't talk don't try and don't deny
Someone you don't know is making you decide
She was born in Ireland County Cork
Now the neighbors post shit through her door
You've all turned out the same
She didn't close your factory, didn't take your liberty
And you all turned out the same.
Don't talk don't try, and don't disguise
The hate that hides behind those eyes
Don't talk don't try, and don't deny
You're the weakest kind
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
NO ONE ASKED US
We had a demo tape but no one could decide
Which criminal to trust and why
So we got a name and that was said and done
Then we had a letter saying we had won
We didn't take the fall
We were going backwards
The price we paid was small
Coz no one cared to asked us
We never wanted to get into the news
But still we all got screwded
Then we discovered that we were not the first
To get fucked up by that same old verse
Lyrics/Music R.Harrington
5 AM
5 am in town
There's no else around
That camera is watching you
But that's another point of view
Out their waiting
Driving through the night
Destination's right
Let them speak and let them swear
And lets all watch the fascists sneer
We're out here waiting
We don't want your cause
We don't want your Laws
We don't want your wars
We don't want you
We don't want you
The dogs keep bearing down
We get silenced by their sound
And all the news on show tonight
Gets edited for your delight
They're out there waiting
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
THAT GIRL
They've got no limitation
Cos the colour of the cash is calling
And the girl that they're importing
Has got a number not a name (aint we all)
In the backstreets there's a sinner
Where the low life keep on falling
And the victim pays the winner
But the price just stays the same
Tonight come on calling again
The highs and lows of living
Get distant by the day
And all because that firl is called
What no one likes to say
She don't see the sunlight anymore
They keep her locked up
Closed behind that door
(gotta keep kicking)
The boys in the bar keep talking
About the prize catch the all made
And the pimp just helps them all say
That she's the only one to blame
In the streets I saw a stranger
She had a lonely look inside
And right behind here was the one
With the aim of his bullet
Lyrics/Music R.Harrington
WHAT I WANT
I know that I can't fake it
Thats why i've got to take it
I've got that needing feeling coming on inside
Sometimes I think that tonite is already over
Its what I want
Keep asking for direction
The place where I can get some
That need for healing keeps on taking up all my time
I try to break it but I think it's taking over
This place has got just what I need and it's all mine
Sometimes I think tonight is already over
Daylight is my salvation
Resisting all temptation
Till I remind myself that I want some more
I try to break it but I think it's taking over
Forget that 9 to 5 I'm walking to the door
Sometimes I think tonight is already over
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
THIS TOWN
I wake up thank fuck its raining
This town keeps me complaining
Right now I don't know if I belong here anymore
Sometime's I've had enough
So I'll keep saying it all to them
When things start getting tough
I'll just keep playing the council pricks
Back handed, deal with it, Grey suited
But I am not alone
Car parks and office spaces
I see the same old faces
And the voice at the county hall
Gets me down and out again
Don' t account for no one anymore
The un elected business whore
Get a grant to help fill out a form
And they says that's OK
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
NO SATISFACTION
No Satisfaction guaranteed
Saturday means something
Crave the thing you know you need
Right now you're worth nothing
Going places you don't know
Days keep going nowhere
One last coin wont save your name
Or get that ticket out of here
Work all week get some say
Feeling 5 years older
Make that vote get off your knees
Or start the whole thing over
I tried living on the other side
The grass ain't greener but it looked alright
Was given nothing for the pain I felt
So I got right out
The boss got fed the contract said
Blackmail by emotion
Fuck that game I'll clear this head
Break my back for no one
The suits inside the boardroom like
To say you'll get no mention
And that's because redundancy
Will get your best attention
I know you're fucked over
And living on automatic
I know you're messed over
And living on someone's handout
I know you're fucked over
I want it all for nothing
Lyrics/Music R.Harrington
CELEBRITY
Spreading peace and love
In the minefields of Angola
A photo opportunity
Celebrity has sold ya
They made front page news again
But they all hate the Paparazzi lens
Hollywood cocaine
A royal fascination
Cinematic lives
Far too much temptation
10% reduction to the charitable cause
Designers help stop third world wars
Verci always win
Benetton dont kill
Gap never sins
And we all get to pay the bill
United Nations all
Waiting for that presidential call
The next one in
Watch that jaded popstar grin
Wear another name
Promote another label
Donate another dollar
From the budget on yer table
Explosive occupations for
The heroes faking for their cause
Fake it all
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
KEEP ON
The bullets fly beneath the sun
Precision guidance freedom comes
When the boss begins
To break the rules we made
Gun control is what we need
To keep the terrorists we've seen
Hiding in their hills
And always running
And I'll keep on with what I want
No point in always hiding
And I'll keep on with what I want
No point in never trying
Embedded news reports at home
We've experienced it all
Not for the first time
We get to save our souls
This is the advertisers dream
Kmart sells to keep you clean
Stockpiled high because
They know you'll need it
Aljazerah news is free
But I tune into the BBC
Time Warner is AO Hell
Keeps us happy keeps us well
Microsoft keep playing hard
Secure Services at heart
Reocording ecerything they see
Keep you happy keep you free
Lyrics R.Harrington Music A.Lealand
