The official lyrics from the booklet are out, they can be found at the TCV forum, transcribed by the user Autoriot, http://forum.themcrookedvultures.com/showthread.php?t=3024 Gunman, bloodshot eyes. Gunman, grain of sand. Sisters, could not speak. Father, is a holy ghost. & there's lions in a cage. It don't matter, don't try to explain, you're just another dog to be trained, choke chained. You're gonna end up under tooth & nail. If you catch a tiger by the tail, dont fail. Brother, does not dream anymore. Sisters, COULD NOT SLEEP. Transformation incomplete, mercy killing, those counting sheep. I'm a trigger, quick to fire, punctuate betwixt the eyes & you're clever... it ain't gonna help you. Violence is just an incomplete thought, coming to a complete stop, stop. You're so clever you'll tear us apart, then masquerade it as art. Not smart. If you can help anyone, help yourself, that's unless you hate yourself, then don't help. Angry ants are crawling, makes you wanna scream. Lions clawing, building up steam. Flesh & bone have no persuasion, this is the path to my destination. Gunman, where you been? You're my hero, saviour, psycho, slayer. Follow the leader yet lead 'em the same. Slugs punctuate the refrain, come again? It don't matter, don't try to explain. You're just a dog to be trained, choke chained. You gonna end up under tooth & nail. If you catch a tiger by THE TALE, DON'T FAIL. I wanna go blind, wanna stare at the sun. De-evolution. |

I don't know why I can't submit lyrics for this song as clearly there are none...but here they are anyway... The only thing I'm not pretty sure about is the word "prayer". Gunman/bloodshot eyes Gunman/grain of sand Sisters/could not speak Father/is a holy ghost (and live) Liar/in a cage It don't' matter don't try to explain You're just another dog to be trained/Choke chain You're gonna die by the tooth and nail If you catch a tiger by the tail/Don't fail Brother/Does not dream anymore Sisters/Could not sleep Transformation incomplete Mercy killing/is counting sheep On the trigger/quick to fire Punctuate betwixt the eyes Your prayer/it ain't gonna help you Violence is just an incomplete clause Coming to a complete stop/stop You're so clever you tear us apart The masquerade of the heart/outsmart if you can help then you won't help yourself That's unless you hate yourself/and don't know Angry ants are crawling Makes you want to scream Lions clawing/Building up steam Flesh and bone is new persuasion This is the pathway to my destination Gunman/where you been You're my hero/savior/psycho/slayer Follow the leader/Yet lead them the same Flies punctuate the refrain/come again It don't' matter don't try to explain You're just another dog to be trained/choke chain You're gonna die by the tooth and nail If you catch a tiger by the tail/Don't fail I wanna go bye/wanna stare at the sun De-evolution |
