Hip To Be Scared - Live in Riverside / 2023

[Intro: Spoken Word]

Hello kiddies and creeps of all ages. We've already arrived at tonight's maimed event. I've got a band for you who know a thing or two about rot and roll. So lend me your fears because if you leave now, you'll be making a grave mistake. I call this one, Ice Nine Kills

[Verse 1: Spencer Charnas,  Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti, Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti & Patrick Galante]

In the wealthiest sections, a killer complexion is often a great alibi

Valentino couture mixed with violence and gore

"Well, I guess I'm a pretty sick guy"

With my beauty routinеs and a fridge full of spleens

Some might say it's extrеme, but it's time to say goodbye

[Chorus: Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti, Spencer Charnas]

So to hell with good intentions

So to hell is where I'll go

But the Devil makes exceptions

For All-American psychos

[Interlude: Woman & Spencer Charnas]

"Patrick, where are you going?'

"I'm just leaving"

"But why?"

"I have to return some videotapes"

[Verse 2: Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti, Spencer Charnas, Joe Occhiuti]

You'll find no escape once you're captured on tape

I'm aware it's a bit avant-garde

("Not the fucking face, you piece of bitch trash")

Casually cleaving without ever grieving

But wait, let me give you my card

"That's bone"

There is no real me, just this dark entity

That cannot be redeemed so it's time to say goodbye

[Chorus: Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti, Ricky Armellino, Spencer Charnas]

So to hell with good intentions

So to hell is where I'll go

But the Devil makes exceptions

For All-American psychos

Hold my calls, I'll kill them all

Riverside

So to hell with good intentions

For All-American psychos

[Skit: Spencer Charnas & Jacoby Shaddix]

How the fuck are we doing Riverside?

"Do you like Ice Nine Kills?"

"Not really"

"Their early work was a little bit too 'scene' for me

But when The Silver Scream came out I think they really came into their own

Commercially and artistically

The whole album has a refined melodic sensibility that really makes it a cut above the rest"

"Hey Paul"

[Verse 3: Spencer Charnas & Joe Occhiuti, Spencer Charnas]

"You've reached the law offices of Mitchell, Summerberg and Donald

Please leave a message"

Eric, hello, as my lawyer, you know

I'm psychotic, but I've crossed the line

I killed Drew, Chris and Mike, stabbed José with a knife

But I don't think I'm gonna get away with it this time

[Chorus: Spencer Charnas, Joe Occhiuti, Ricky Armellino]

Sing it

To hell with good intentions

To hell is where I'll go

But the Devil makes exceptions

For All-American psychos

Hold my calls, I'll kill them all

Riverside

So to hell with good intentions

For All-American, American psychos

[Skit: Spoken Word]
