Knowledge
I know things are getting tougher
When you cant get the top off the bottom of the barrel
Wide open road of my future now.
Its looking fucking narrow
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
We get told to decide
Just like
as if
I'm not gonna change my mind
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
[Instrumental]
Whatcha gonna do with yourself
Boy better make up your mind
Whatcha gonna do with yourself
Boy running out of time
[Instrumental]
This time I got it all figured out
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
All I know is that I don't know
All I know is that I don't know nothing
And that's fine
Sound System
[Intro]
Sound system gonna bring me back up (yea!)
One thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up (right!)
One thing that I can depend on
Try to describe to the limit of my ability:
Its there for a second
Then it's given up what it used to be
Contained in music somehow more than just sound
This inspiration coming and twisting things around
Because you always know that it's gonna have to go
You always know that you'll be back in the cold.
Point of departure sublimated in a song
Its always coming to give me that hope for just a second
Then it's gone, but!
Sound system gonna bring me back up (yea!)
One thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up (right!)
One thing that I can depend on
Static pulse inside of music bringing us escape.
Its always temporary, changing nothing in its wake...
Just a second where we're leaving all this shit behind
Just a second but its leaving just this much in mind:
To resist despair, that second makes you see
To resist despair, because you can't change everything
To resist despair, in this world is
What it is
What it is
to be free
Sound system gonna bring me back up (right!)
One thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up (yea!)
One thing that I can depend on
hu hu hu hu
Pick it up (x8)
Sound System
Sound! System!
Sound! System!
Wake up turn my box on
Bust the shade, let the sun in
Times getting tougher 'bout time to start runnin'
Box in my hand music by my side
Skankin' to the rhythm of the music by my side
Sound system gonna bring me back up (yea!)
One thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up (right!)
One thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up (right!)
One thing that I can depend on
Sound system gonna bring me back up (yea!)
One thing that I can depend on
Sound! System!
Sound! System!

freeze Up
jamacaman14
Empty factories to the east and all our waste
The shape of things that came shows on the broken workers face
To the west you'll find our silicon promised lands where
Machines replace our minds for systematic profit plans
The course of human progress staggers like a drunk
Its steps are quick and heavy and its mind is slow and blunt
I look for optimism but I just dont know
Its seeds are planted in a poison place where nothing grows
[Chorus]
It's 1989 stand up and take a look around
Weathers bitter tension it seems is sinking down
Drunk with power and fighting one another
Every hour shows the winter getting harder
There's a freeze up coming... [ad libs]
One nation stands the tallest radiating blinding light
Plastic and fluorescent energy robbing us of sight
Set in our way content with our decay
We wave the flag of freedom as we conquer and invade
Ever ask yourself where's my place in this hell
But no ones there to tell you cuz they dont know that themselves
The well rehearsed lines from our elated politicians
No longer offer solace we can see the self destruction
[Chorus]
It's 1989 stand up and take a look around
Weathers bitter tension it seems is sinking down
Drunk with power and fighting one another
Every hour shows the winter getting harder
There's a freeze up coming... [ad libs]
[Instrumental]
Just one political song, just one political song
to drop into the list that stretches years and years long
[x2]
Static and division is increasing like a storm,
we are shelter,
we are forewarned,
nothing can be changed except ourselves,
nothing can be changed except ourselves,
There's a freeze up coming... [ad libs]
