Lyrics

Static

Static

It almost has you begging for a gun to put to your head

Static

Cryogenics for the mind, crawling for the safety of your bed

Static

Another strip mall solution for the endless insanity

Static

Deliberate de-evolution of the soul of a species

And if I see another crack

Well, I think I'm gonna crack

'Cause I can't go on

Static

A leering millionaire comedian cum working man on TV

Static

A systematic corrosion of the core of society

Static

Cartoon voices on the radio encouraging a shaking fist

Static

Another virus feeding off the frenzied orgy of violence

And if I see another crack

Well, I think I'm gonna crack

'Cause I can't go on

And if I see another crack

Well, I think I'm gonna crack

'Cause I can't go on

And if I see another crack

Well, I think I'm gonna crack

'Cause I can't go on

And if I see another crack

Well, I think I'm gonna crack

'Cause I can't go on

And if I see another crack

Ya know I think I'm gonna crack

Because I, I can't go on

And if I see another crack

Ya know I think I'm gonna crack

Because I, I can't go on
