Fruit Roll Up

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Justin/Mike

Fruit Roll Up has been performed at 160 shows and appears on Split 7″ w/ Raid and Live KRBX 2013

Lyrics

Posing for a crew pic, looking hard as shit. But posing's all you'll ever do, and I think you know it. Sometimes I swear you're looking for a reason to be pissed. Answer slightest criticism with a bullshit threat. Face like stone, skin like paper. Skin like a fruit roll-up: easily breached, easily broken. Slide right under with any bad words spoken. Always trying to go to war, no enemies to fight against. Might as well settle for your friends.

You’ll Be Next

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

You’ll Be Next has been performed at 76 shows and appears on Show Us The Meaning Of Haste

Lyrics

Earlier visa overstay results in unexpected delay. Kept in motherfucking chains, jailed then sent the fuck away. It's happening to brown people, that is true. It's happening to white people, could be you. You may not have any ties to terrorists. That's for authorities to decide, if you'll be next on the list.

Fresh Hell

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

Fresh Hell has been performed at 163 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

Child exploitation. Suppression of women. Death and starvation. Roadside explosions. People living a fresh hell every day. A world away, in my life of comfort, I sit here trying and failing to imagine waking up to a fresh hell every day. World of violence cries for assistance. But the 'help' they're getting is worse than nothing.

Thicken

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

Thicken has been performed at 163 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

I'm not saying let's ignore injustice. I'm not saying let's turn a blind eye. I'm not opposed to political correctness. I'm only saying you could probably stand to have some patience. Pick your battles. Rethink the power words have over you. Thicken your skin.

Poop Du Jour

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

Poop Du Jour has been performed at 35 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

Shit of the day piled on your plate. Time for you to tuck into the shit of the day. It's here to stay. Face another stupid day. Tell yourself it's gonna change. You'll eat the shit anyway. Day after day. Shit on your plate. Shit-eating grin on your face again.

World’s Oldest Baby

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

World’s Oldest Baby has been performed at 19 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

This was supposed to be a fucking joke. Never thought it would get this far. Never thought I'd be in this mess. I don't like this anymore. This is way harder than I thought it would be. There's way more to this than I thought there was. Now you're telling me I have to divest? I fucking hate this. From sea to shining sea, can't stand people making fun of me. Never knew that so many fucking hated my guts. Just assumed that I'd be in charge. No idea how this actually works. Can't just do whatever the fuck I want, goddammit. I don't care about partnership. I don't care about compromise. I don't care about morning briefs. I don't care about the Bill of Rights. I don't care about any of this. I don't like this anymore. Just wanna take my golf clubs and go home.

Casual Stupidity

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

Casual Stupidity has been performed at 47 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

Some people actually try to think before they speak. You can't wait to show people how stupid you are. Casual stupidity proudly on display. Lack of validity all day, every day. Some realize their faults and try to improve on them. All you ever seem to wanna do is amplify them. Learning and listening? Not you, no sir. Much more fun to be a fucking loser.

Who Asked You?

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Cory/Mike

Who Asked You? has been performed at 16 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

The world doesn't need to know what you think on any given topic. Spouting opinions and kneejerk reactions. Reverse peristalsis. Answering questions that nobody asked. No knowledge of the situation. Never stops you from chiming in. Time to put that keyboard away. Until you put some logic into what you say, put it away.

Smashcast

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Cory

Smashcast has been performed at 19 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

Eating fire, shitting lead. Push up daisies, now you're dead. Blasting off into the sun. Mission failure, hole-in-one. Father Time is undefeated, but defeat won't be conceded. Smash your casts, blast some thrash. Don't stop 'til you're outta cash.

Rips

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

Rips has been performed at 95 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

See your face, turn my back. There's no doubt about it. Fuck off all poser shit. We only play stuff that rips. Pose in hell forever. That's all there is to it.

Henhouse

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Cory/Joe/Mike

Henhouse has been performed at 20 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

Strapped public schools forced to underperform. Concerned parents send their kids to private schools and wonder why they don't get results. Maybe education wasn't the goal. Beware the for-profit education industry, run by folks who worm their way into positions of power over public schools, which, oddly enough, leads to more cuts in funding. Schools are further abandoned, and the spiral continues all the way to the fucking bank.

Ten Deep Breaths

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

Ten Deep Breaths has been performed at 76 shows and appears on Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

Desperate to escape hell on earth, a fucking nightmare. Endless invasive questions. Vetting procedures are plenty extreme. Life on fucking hold for months and years spent in camps, waiting for the fucking light to turn green. You really think a terrorist act would be worth going through all that shit? The last thing they need is for you to go around huffin' and puffin' and blowin' their house down. Leave them the fuck alone.

Where’s The Fun?

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

Where’s The Fun? has been performed at 297 shows and appears on s/t demo, Diagnosis: Delicious 7″, Full Spectrum Dominance 2005-08, and Live KRBX 2013

Lyrics

What's up with this craze that passes for hardcore these days? It's core in name but not in style. If you think it is, you're in denial. Fuck this. Hardcore tradition grew out of punk rock, it's true. Now this kung fu metal crap is edging punk right off the map. Fuck that. Suck ass. Where is the fun? Where is the energy? Where is the outrage? Where's the punk rock urgency? Circle pits are way more fun. You're just trying to hurt someone. Are kung fu breakdowns here to stay? Somehow we got lost along the way.

It’s All You

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

It’s All You has been performed at 297 shows and appears on s/t demo, Diagnosis: Delicious 7″, Full Spectrum Dominance 2005-08, and Live KRBX 2013

Lyrics

I was right. You were fucking wrong. Don't blame me for your being fucked. It's all your fault. I'm not to blame. This one's all you. It's not me. Point out any scapegoat that you can find. You're still the asshole who fucked it all up.

Fuck An Apology

Lyrics by Mike, Music by Mike

Fuck An Apology has been performed at 75 shows and appears on Fastcore Forever and Forbidden Techniques

Lyrics

So many pegs, so many different shapes slammed into the same round holes. The golden rule is irrelevant here. We're all bred into a culture of fear. So fuck an apology. Their approval means nothing to me. We're all the same when we close our eyes. There's no reason to apologize for who you are. So fuck an apology. Live your life like it was meant to be. Sooner or later they'll recognize there's no reason to apologize for who you are.
